Product details
Overview
CS8391YDPR5 from onsemi is a high-efficiency, synchronous step-down DC-DC converter IC designed for point-of-load power conversion in industrial and embedded systems. It delivers up to 3 A continuous output current with input voltage range of 4.5 V to 18 V, fixed 3.3 V output, and integrated MOSFETs enabling compact PCB layout. It operates at 500 kHz switching frequency and supports over-current, over-temperature, and under-voltage lockout protection.
For engineers reviewing the CS8391YDPR5 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 3.3 V fixed-output regulation, internal power FETs eliminating external MOSFETs, thermal shutdown behavior, enable control logic polarity, and compatibility with ceramic output capacitors in space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The CS8391YDPR5 implements a constant-on-time (COT) control architecture for fast transient response and stable operation without external compensation components. Its integrated high-side and low-side N-channel MOSFETs feature typical RDS(on) values of 45 mΩ and 22 mΩ respectively, enabling high efficiency across load ranges from 10 mA to 3 A.
It includes an internal 0.6 V reference for feedback, supports adjustable soft-start via external capacitor, and provides power-good (PG) signal assertion after output reaches ±5% regulation. The device operates in forced PWM mode only - no skip-mode or diode emulation - ensuring consistent EMI profile.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 18 V - supports wide industrial supply rails including 5 V, 12 V, and 15 V bus systems. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3 V ±2% - eliminates need for external resistor divider; suitable for powering microcontrollers and I/O interfaces. |
| Max Output Current | 3 A continuous - enables single-chip replacement of discrete buck solutions in mid-power applications. |
| Switching Frequency | 500 kHz nominal - balances efficiency, inductor size, and EMI filtering requirements. |
| Control Architecture | Constant-On-Time (COT) - provides inherent stability with ceramic output capacitors and fast load-step response. |
| Protection Features | OCP, OTP, UVLO - ensures robust operation during fault conditions without external circuitry. |
| Thermal Shutdown Threshold | 150 °C junction - allows safe derating in enclosed enclosures with limited airflow. |
Pinout & Package
CS8391YDPR5 is housed in a thermally enhanced 8-pin SOIC-EP package (SOIC-8 with exposed pad), measuring 4.9 mm × 3.9 mm × 1.75 mm, with the exposed pad electrically connected to ground for optimal thermal dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input Power Supply | Primary DC input connection; requires local 10 µF ceramic decoupling capacitor. |
| SW | Switch Node | Connection to external inductor; carries high dv/dt switching waveform - critical for EMI layout. |
| GND | Power Ground | System ground return path; tied directly to exposed thermal pad for low-impedance heat transfer. |
| FB | Feedback Input | Internally biased to 0.6 V reference; unused in fixed-output variant CS8391YDPR5. |
| EN | Enable Control | Active-high logic input; pulls up internally to VIN - requires pull-down to disable. |
| PG | Power-Good Output | Open-drain signal asserted high when output is within ±5% of 3.3 V; requires external pull-up. |
| BOOT | Bootstrap Supply | Connects to SW through 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor to bias high-side MOSFET gate driver. |
| EPAD | Thermal Pad | Exposed copper pad on bottom surface - must be soldered to large PCB copper area for thermal performance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated High/Low-Side MOSFETs | Eliminates four external power components and simplifies layout while maintaining >92% peak efficiency at 2 A. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MP2333HG-33-LF-Z (Monolithic Power) | Same 3.3 V fixed output, 3 A rating, but uses current-mode control and smaller 2 mm × 2 mm QFN-8 package. | Lacks power-good signal and has lower thermal limit (125 °C vs. 150 °C). | Preferred where ultra-compact footprint is critical and thermal margin is sufficient. |
| TPS54331DR (Texas Instruments) | Adjustable output (0.8–15 V), 3 A, but requires external MOSFETs and compensation network. | Offers flexibility for multi-rail designs but increases component count and layout complexity. | Chosen when variable output voltage or higher input voltage (>18 V) is required. |
Compared with MP2333HG-33-LF-Z and TPS54331DR, the CS8391YDPR5 provides a balanced trade-off: integrated power stage and PG signal simplify design, while its SOIC-EP package offers superior thermal handling over QFN alternatives and avoids the layout overhead of external FETs required by TPS54331DR.

FAQ
What is the recommended input capacitor for CS8391YDPR5?
The CS8391YDPR5 requires a minimum 10 µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor placed as close as possible to the VIN and GND pins. A parallel combination of 10 µF + 1 µF improves high-frequency decoupling. Bulk capacitance beyond 22 µF is not necessary unless input ripple suppression is critical in noisy environments. The capacitor voltage rating must exceed the maximum input voltage by at least 20%.
Does CS8391YDPR5 support adjustable output voltage?
No, CS8391YDPR5 is a fixed-output variant with 3.3 V regulation. The FB pin is internally connected to the 0.6 V reference and not accessible for external resistor programming. For adjustable output, consider the CS8391YDPR2 (adjustable version) or alternative buck regulators with external feedback networks.
How does the power-good (PG) signal behave on CS8391YDPR5?
The PG pin on CS8391YDPR5 is an open-drain output that pulls low during startup and fault conditions. It transitions high-Z to high (via external pull-up) only after the output voltage reaches and remains within ±5% of 3.3 V for ≥1 ms. This signal is fully compatible with standard 3.3 V logic inputs and can drive reset controllers or FPGA configuration sequencers directly.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of CS8391YDPR5 in standard SOIC-EP layout?
In a standard 2-layer PCB with 2 in² of 2-oz copper connected to the EPAD, the CS8391YDPR5 exhibits θJA ≈ 42 °C/W. With optimized 4-layer board and thermal vias under the EPAD, θJA improves to ~30 °C/W. Junction temperature must remain below 125 °C for continuous 3 A operation at +70 °C ambient.
Can CS8391YDPR5 be used with aluminum electrolytic output capacitors?
CS8391YDPR5 is optimized for low-ESR ceramic output capacitors (e.g., 22 µF X5R, 1210 case). Aluminum electrolytics introduce higher ESR and ESL, degrading transient response and potentially causing instability in COT control. If bulk capacitance is needed, use ceramic capacitors in parallel - do not substitute electrolytics for the primary output capacitor.
