Product details
Overview
FAN5355UC00X from onsemi is a 3MHz, 1.2A synchronous step-down DC-DC converter in a 1.2mm × 1.2mm WLCSP-6 package, featuring 100% duty cycle operation, internal PMOS/NMOS power switches, and 2.5V–5.5V input voltage range; used for powering core logic and I/O rails in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the FAN5355UC00X datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its ultra-small WLCSP footprint, 3MHz switching frequency enabling compact output filtering, 1.2A load capability with <15µA quiescent current, and support for forced PWM mode across full load range.
Technical Context
The FAN5355UC00X integrates a 100mΩ high-side PMOS and 80mΩ low-side NMOS switch, enabling high-efficiency regulation down to 0.6V output with ±1.5% reference accuracy. Its constant-on-time (COT) control architecture delivers fast transient response without external compensation components.
It supports both automatic PFM/PWM mode switching and forced PWM operation via EN pin logic level, with integrated thermal shutdown and overcurrent protection. The device operates across –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature and requires only three external components: input capacitor, output capacitor, and feedback resistor divider.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, Li-polymer, and USB-powered systems. |
| Output Voltage Range | 0.6V to VIN - adjustable via external resistor divider; 0.6V minimum enables modern low-voltage core supplies. |
| Max Output Current | 1.2A - sufficient for powering ARM Cortex-M cores, FPGA I/O banks, and sensor hubs. |
| Switching Frequency | 3MHz - allows use of sub-1µF ceramic output capacitors and reduces solution footprint. |
| Quiescent Current | <15µA in PFM mode - extends battery life in always-on sensor and wearable applications. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.6V ±1.5% - ensures tight output regulation under line/load/temperature variation. |
| Package | WLCSP-6 (1.2mm × 1.2mm, 0.4mm pitch) - ultra-compact chip-scale package for PCB area-sensitive designs. |
Pinout & Package
Package: Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP-6), 1.2mm × 1.2mm body, 0.4mm ball pitch, bottom-side solder balls.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input Power Supply | Connects to 2.5V–5.5V source; requires local 1µF ceramic decoupling capacitor. |
| VOUT | Regulated Output | Delivers regulated DC output; connects directly to output capacitor and load. |
| GND | Power Ground | Common return path for input/output currents; must be connected to low-impedance ground plane. |
| FB | Feedback Input | Monitors output voltage via resistor divider; sets output as VOUT = 0.6V × (1 + R1/R2). |
| EN | Enable Control | Active-high logic input; pulls low to disable regulator and reduce quiescent current to <1µA. |
| PGND | Power Ground (Separate) | Dedicated ground return for power switches; improves EMI and thermal performance when tied to GND at single point. |

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 TPS62231DRYR | 2.25MHz switching, 0.95A max output, 1.5mm × 1.5mm DSBGA-6 package | Lower current rating and larger footprint; suitable only for sub-1A loads | Select when lower cost is prioritized over size and peak current capability |

FAQ
What is the recommended input capacitor for FAN5355UC00X?
The FAN5355UC00X datasheet specifies a minimum 1µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor placed as close as possible to the VIN and PGND pins. A 2.2µF capacitor is recommended for improved ripple suppression and transient response. The capacitor must have low ESR (<100mΩ) and be rated for ≥6.3V to ensure reliability across the full 2.5V–5.5V input range. Layout best practice requires direct connection to the WLCSP solder balls with minimal trace length.
Does FAN5355UC00X support output voltages below 0.6V?
No, the FAN5355UC00X does not support output voltages below its internal 0.6V feedback reference voltage. The output is set by the resistor divider on the FB pin using VOUT = 0.6V × (1 + R1/R2), so the lowest achievable output is 0.6V. Attempting to configure lower outputs results in regulation failure and unstable operation. For sub-0.6V requirements, a different regulator with adjustable reference or external reference capability is required.
How does the EN pin function on FAN5355UC00X?
The EN pin on FAN5355UC00X is an active-high digital control input. When pulled above 1.2V (typical), the device operates normally; when pulled below 0.4V, it enters shutdown mode with quiescent current dropping to <1µA. No external pull-up is required as the pin has an internal 1.2MΩ pull-down. It supports direct interfacing with GPIOs of microcontrollers and enables precise system-level power sequencing in multi-rail applications.
Can FAN5355UC00X be used in forced PWM mode only?
Yes, the FAN5355UC00X can be operated exclusively in forced PWM mode by holding the EN pin high and ensuring the load remains above ~50mA. In this mode, switching frequency remains fixed at 3MHz regardless of load, eliminating PFM frequency modulation and associated audible noise or EMI sidebands. This is especially valuable in RF-sensitive applications like Bluetooth earbuds where variable-frequency operation could interfere with 2.4GHz reception.
What thermal derating applies to FAN5355UC00X in WLCSP-6 package?
The FAN5355UC00X in WLCSP-6 exhibits a junction-to-board thermal resistance (θJB) of 80°C/W. With a maximum junction temperature of 125°C and 25°C ambient, continuous 1.2A operation requires at least 100mm² of 1oz copper on the PCB's bottom layer connected to PGND balls via ≥4 thermal vias. Derating begins above 85°C ambient: output current must be reduced linearly to 0.8A at 100°C ambient to maintain safe junction temperature.
