Product details
Overview
FAN5350MPX from onsemi is a synchronous step-down DC-DC converter delivering a fixed 1.82V output at up to 600mA from a 2.7V–5.5V input, operating at 3MHz fixed frequency with 16µA quiescent current in power-save mode, and housed in a 6-lead 3×3mm MLP package for space-constrained portable power rails.
For engineers reviewing the FAN5350MPX datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed efficiency behavior across load ranges, thermal shutdown thresholds, and real-world layout guidance for high-frequency buck regulation in battery-powered systems.
Technical Context
The FAN5350MPX employs a proprietary non-linear, fixed-frequency PWM modulator with seamless pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) transition at light loads-enabling >90% efficiency at full 600mA load and >80% efficiency down to 1mA. Its architecture eliminates traditional feedback compensation, delivering instantaneous transient response without external loop components.
It integrates synchronous PFET/NFET power switches with 180mΩ/170mΩ RDS(on), internal soft-start (300µs), input UVLO (1.8–2.1V rising edge), and thermal shutdown at 150°C with 20°C hysteresis. The device operates in CCM at heavy loads and DCM single-pulse PFM at light loads, minimizing output ripple while maintaining sub-14mV transition glitch.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.82V ±2.4% (1.775–1.865V) - ensures stable core voltage for low-power processors and memory without external resistor divider. |
| Switching Frequency | 3.0MHz nominal (2.5–3.5MHz range) - enables use of compact 1µH inductor and 4.7µF ceramic capacitors, reducing board area by >40% vs. 1MHz converters. |
| Quiescent Current | 16µA typical in power-save mode - extends battery life in standby states of smartphones and wearables without sacrificing wake-up response. |
| Output Current | 600mA continuous - supports dual-core application processors or multi-rail PMIC subsystems requiring regulated 1.8V supply. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V), Li-polymer, and USB-powered inputs without pre-regulation. |
| Junction-to-Ambient θJA | 49°C/W (MLP package) - allows 1.2W dissipation at +85°C ambient before reaching 125°C max junction temperature under full load. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C activation with 20°C hysteresis - prevents permanent damage during sustained overload or poor PCB heat sinking. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-lead Molded Leadless Package (MLP), JEDEC MO-229, 3mm × 3mm square, dual-side exposed thermal pad (DAP), lead-free and RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (PGND) | Power Ground | High-current return path for synchronous rectifier and switch node; must be connected directly to PCB ground plane under DAP for thermal and EMI control. |
| 2 (AGND) | Analog Ground | Low-noise reference for feedback comparator and bias circuitry; requires separate trace to PGND only at single-point star connection near IC. |
| 3 (FB) | Feedback Input | Direct connection to output capacitor anode; no external resistors needed due to internal 1.82V reference; sensitive to noise coupling. |
| 4 (EN) | Enable Control | Active-high logic input (1.2V threshold); <0.4V forces shutdown (<1µA ISD); floating state is undefined and must be avoided. |
| 5 (SW) | Switching Node | Connection to internal PFET drain and NFET source; carries high di/dt square wave; requires minimum copper area and shortest possible trace to inductor. |
| 6 (VIN) | Input Supply | Primary power input (2.7–5.5V); must be decoupled with 4.7µF X5R ceramic capacitor placed within 2mm of pin and PGND. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous rectification | Eliminates external Schottky diode, reducing conduction loss and improving full-load efficiency to >90% at 600mA. |
| Proprietary non-linear PWM control | Delivers <14mV VOUT glitch during PFM↔PWM transitions and maintains stability across 0.7–3.0µH inductors without compensation components. |
| Integrated soft-start | 300µs controlled ramp limits inrush current into output capacitance, preventing input rail sag and enabling reliable power sequencing. |
| UVLO with hysteresis | Prevents erratic startup below 1.75V falling-edge threshold, ensuring clean enablement only when input is sufficiently stable for regulation. |
| Thermal protection with hysteresis | Shuts down switching at 150°C and re-enables only after die cools to 130°C, avoiding thermal cycling and enabling safe recovery under marginal cooling conditions. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down DC-DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TI TPS62231DRVR | 1.8V fixed output, 600mA, 3MHz, but uses external compensation and lacks integrated soft-start; higher 25µA quiescent current. | Requires additional RC network for loop stability; less suitable for space-constrained designs where layout simplicity is critical. | Choose if existing design already uses TI's WEBENCH tools or requires adjustable output via feedback resistors. |
| ROHM BD9A100MUV | 1.8V fixed output, 600mA, 3MHz, but rated only to 85°C ambient (vs. FAN5350MPX's 125°C junction limit); 22µA IQ. | Limited thermal margin in enclosed industrial handhelds; lower efficiency at 1mA load due to higher quiescent draw. | Consider only for cost-sensitive consumer applications with verified ambient <70°C and no requirement for extended temperature validation. |
Compared with TPS62231DRVR and BD9A100MUV, the FAN5350MPX offers superior light-load efficiency (16µA IQ), inherent stability without compensation, and tighter output accuracy (±2.4%), making it optimal for battery-critical portable electronics where layout area and standby power are primary constraints.

FAQ
What is the recommended inductor value for FAN5350MPX?
The FAN5350MPX is optimized for a 1µH shielded power inductor rated ≥650mA saturation current and ≤90mΩ DCR. It remains stable with inductors from 0.7µH to 3.0µH, but deviation affects peak current limit, PFM/PWM transition point, and transient response-per Equation 2 and Table 1 in the datasheet. For FAN5350MPX, using 1µH achieves best balance of size, efficiency, and regulation.
Does FAN5350MPX require external feedback resistors?
No, the FAN5350MPX has an internal 1.82V reference and fixed-output configuration-no external feedback resistors are needed. The FB pin connects directly to the output capacitor anode. This simplifies layout, reduces BOM count, and eliminates resistor tolerance errors affecting output accuracy. All FAN5350MPX units deliver 1.82V ±2.4% without adjustment.
What is the maximum allowable PCB trace length between VIN and CIN for FAN5350MPX?
VIN and the 4.7µF input capacitor must be placed within 2mm of each other and connected with wide, low-inductance traces. Longer paths increase switching noise coupling and risk instability or excessive input ripple. The FAN5350MPX datasheet explicitly states "place CIN as close as possible between VIN pin and PGND" - exceeding 2mm degrades EMI performance and may cause startup failure under high di/dt conditions.
How does FAN5350MPX handle load transients from 1mA to 600mA?
The FAN5350MPX delivers exceptional transient response due to its proprietary non-linear control architecture-no traditional feedback loop is required. Load steps from 1mA to 600mA produce <14mV output deviation (Figures 22–23), recovering in <5µs. This is enabled by instantaneous valley-current sensing and direct pulse-width adjustment, making FAN5350MPX ideal for processor core rails with bursty workloads.
Is FAN5350MPX pin-compatible with FAN5350UCX?
No, FAN5350MPX (6-lead MLP) and FAN5350UCX (5-bump WLCSP) have fundamentally different packages, pin counts, and pinouts. FAN5350MPX uses pins 1–6 (PGND, AGND, FB, EN, SW, VIN); FAN5350UCX uses bumps A1, A3, C1, C3, B2 (VIN, GND, EN, FB, SW). They are functionally identical but not mechanically or electrically interchangeable-PCB redesign is required for substitution.
