Product details
Overview
FAN4860UMP5X from ON Semiconductor (formerly Fairchild) is a 3 MHz synchronous TinyBoost™ DC-DC boost regulator in a 6-pin 2×2 mm UMLP package, delivering fixed 5.0 V output from 2.3–4.5 V input, supporting ≥300 mA load at VIN=3.3 V, and achieving up to 92% efficiency for USB OTG and HDMI power rails.
For engineers reviewing the FAN4860UMP5X datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified technical context, real-world load capability data, thermal resistance (θJA = 57 °C/W), shutdown quiescent current (<1.5 µA), and validated alternative options for 5 V boost supply designs.
Technical Context
The FAN4860UMP5X implements variable on-time pulse frequency modulation (PFM) with automatic seamless transition between PWM and PFM modes to maintain high efficiency across 0–300 mA loads. It uses current-mode control with cycle-by-cycle peak current limiting (1100 mA typical for 5.0 V output) and built-in soft-start with VIN-dependent timing.
It integrates an N-channel boost switch (RDS(ON) = 300 mΩ) and P-channel synchronous rectifier (RDS(ON) = 400 mΩ), enabling true load disconnect during shutdown and eliminating external diode requirements. Thermal shutdown activates at 150 °C with 30 °C hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0 V ±2.5% over 2.3–4.5 V input and 0–200 mA load; ensures stable USB/HDMI rail compliance. |
| Switching Frequency | 3 MHz nominal in PWM mode; enables use of tiny 1 µH inductor and 0402/0603 capacitors for space-constrained portable designs. |
| Max Output Current | 300 mA at VIN = 3.3 V, VOUT = 5.0 V; sufficient for powering HDMI transceivers or dual H-bridge motor drivers. |
| Quiescent Current | 37–45 µA in regulation, <1.5 µA in shutdown; extends battery life in always-on portable instrumentation. |
| Junction-to-Ambient θJA | 57 °C/W (UMLP package); allows >250 mA continuous operation at +85 °C ambient with minimal PCB copper. |
| UVLO Threshold | 2.3 V rising with 190 mV hysteresis; prevents erratic startup near Li-ion battery discharge cutoff. |
| Enable Logic Levels | VENH = 1.05 V min, VENL = 0.4 V max; compatible with 1.8 V / 3.3 V GPIO without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-pin UMLP (2 × 2 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), ultra-thin profile suitable for slim mobile and wearable PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input Power Supply | Connects to single-cell Li-ion (2.3–5.4 V); requires local 2.2 µF X5R 0402 capacitor for stability. |
| SW | Switching Node | Drives external 1 µH inductor; high dv/dt node requiring tight layout and ground shielding. |
| EN | Enable Control | Active-high logic input; must be pulled high or driven-floating causes undefined operation. |
| FB | Feedback Sense | Monitors regulated 5.0 V output via resistive divider (internal for fixed-VOUT variants like FAN4860UMP5X). |
| VOUT | Regulated Output | Delivers 5.0 V to load; also supplies internal bias-requires ≥4.7 µF X5R 0603 ceramic capacitor. |
| GND | Power & Signal Ground | Single-point ground reference for all pins; must connect directly to thermal pad under UMLP package. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous rectification | Integrated P-channel MOSFET eliminates external Schottky diode, reducing BOM count and forward drop losses. |
| True load disconnect | Zero reverse leakage (<10 nA) and open-circuit isolation between VIN and VOUT during shutdown-critical for battery safety. |
| Light-load PFM mode | Glitch-free automatic entry below ~10 mA; maintains regulation with only 37 µA quiescent current at no load. |
| Thermal & overload protection | Auto-recovering thermal shutdown (150 °C) and cycle-by-cycle current limit prevent damage during short-circuit events. |
| Compact external components | Supports 1 µH 0805 inductor and 0402 input / 0603 output capacitors-enables <3 mm² total solution area. |
Applications
| USB OTG 5 V Supply | HDMI Transmitter Power |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Providing regulated 5 V to USB On-The-Go peripherals from a 3.3 V system rail or single-cell battery. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary boost converter supplying clean, low-noise 5 V power with fast transient response to handle plug/unplug events. Use Value: Enables host functionality in smartphones and tablets without requiring separate 5 V charge pump or buck-boost IC. |
Use Scenario: Powering HDMI transmitter ICs (e.g., TFP410, SiI9134) that require stable 5 V I/O supply independent of core voltage. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fixed-output boost regulator delivering low-ripple 5 V with <±2.5% accuracy across temperature and load. Use Value: Meets HDMI specification's 5 V ±5% tolerance while maintaining >90% efficiency at 150 mA typical load. |
| Portable Media Player Core Rail | Smartphone Camera Flash Driver |
Use Scenario: Generating 5.0 V for audio DACs, SD card interfaces, or display backlight drivers in battery-powered media players. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-efficiency boost stage operating in PFM at standby and PWM under active playback. Use Value: Extends playback time by minimizing quiescent draw and maximizing conversion efficiency across 2.3–4.5 V battery range. |
Use Scenario: Supplying 5 V to white LED flash drivers (e.g., AS3645A) requiring precise voltage and fast turn-on response. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-starting boost regulator with <400 µs soft-start time and 300 mA peak capability for burst-mode flash operation. Use Value: Delivers full 5 V within 1 ms of enable assertion, supporting sub-100 ms camera shutter latency requirements. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar boost regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS61200DRCT | Adjustable output (0.9–5.5 V), higher 3.3 A switch current, but larger 3×3 mm QFN package and 1.2 MHz switching frequency. | Requires external feedback resistors; better suited for multi-rail systems needing programmability, not fixed 5 V. | Select when output voltage flexibility or higher current (>300 mA) is required; avoid if board space or 3 MHz EMI filtering is critical. |
| MAX8642ETA+ | Fixed 5.0 V output, 2.5 MHz switching, 400 mA max, but uses 2×2 mm TDFN with exposed pad and higher 65 µA quiescent current. | Lacks true load disconnect; exhibits ~2 µA reverse leakage-unsuitable for battery-isolation-critical designs. | Choose for legacy MAXIM-based designs where footprint compatibility exists; verify shutdown isolation requirements. |
Compared with TPS61200DRCT and MAX8642ETA+, the FAN4860UMP5X offers superior shutdown isolation (<10 nA), lower quiescent current (37 µA), and smaller 2×2 mm UMLP footprint-making it optimal for space- and battery-life-constrained 5 V boost applications.

FAQ
What is the output voltage option for FAN4860UMP5X?
The FAN4860UMP5X is factory-configured for fixed 5.0 V output. Unlike adjustable variants, it does not require external feedback resistors-its FB pin is internally connected to achieve ±2.5% regulation across temperature and load. This simplifies design for USB OTG and HDMI applications where 5.0 V is mandatory.
Does FAN4860UMP5X support true load disconnect during shutdown?
Yes, FAN4860UMP5X provides true load disconnect: when EN is low, both VIN-to-VOUT and VOUT-to-VIN current paths are fully blocked, with VOUT leakage <10 nA and reverse leakage <2.5 µA. This prevents battery drain and protects downstream circuits-critical for always-connected portable devices.
What is the maximum continuous output current for FAN4860UMP5X at 3.3 V input?
At VIN = 3.3 V and VOUT = 5.0 V, FAN4860UMP5X delivers up to 300 mA continuously while maintaining regulation and thermal safety (TJ ≤ 125 °C). This is validated per datasheet Figure 10 and Table "Maximum Output Current" for 5.0 VOUT configuration under recommended PCB layout conditions.
Can FAN4860UMP5X operate with a 1 µH inductor and 0402 capacitors?
Yes-FAN4860UMP5X is optimized for minimal external components: Murata LQM21PN1R0MC0 (1 µH, 0805) inductor and 0402-case 2.2 µF input / 0603-case 4.7 µF output capacitors meet all stability and ripple requirements. The 3 MHz switching frequency enables this compact implementation without sacrificing efficiency or transient response.
What thermal performance can be expected from the UMLP package of FAN4860UMP5X?
The FAN4860UMP5X in UMLP-6 package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 57 °C/W under JEDEC JESD51-7 4-layer board conditions. With proper thermal pad soldering and 100 mm² copper pour, it sustains 250 mA continuous output at +85 °C ambient without derating-validated in datasheet Figure 7 and Thermal Properties table.
