Product details
Overview
FAN53601AUC105X from onsemi is a 6 MHz, 600 mA synchronous buck regulator delivering a fixed 1.050 V output from 2.3–5.5 V input, featuring 24 µA quiescent current in PFM mode, internal soft-start, and active output discharge-designed for power management in compact portable electronics such as tablets and data cards.
For engineers reviewing the FAN53601AUC105X datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 6-bump WLCSP-6 (0.4 mm pitch) package, forced-PWM/external sync capability via MODE pin, UVLO threshold of 2.27 V, thermal shutdown at 150°C, and compatibility with 470 nH inductors and 4.7 µF ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The FAN53601AUC105X employs a proprietary non-linear fixed-frequency PWM modulator with seamless auto-transition between continuous conduction mode (CCM) and discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) PFM, enabling stable regulation across 1 mA to 600 mA loads while maintaining 92% peak efficiency. Its architecture eliminates ESR dependency, supporting low-ESR ceramic capacitors without loop compensation.
Control logic integrates a Schmitt-triggered MODE pin that enables forced PWM operation or external clock synchronization at 1.3–1.7 MHz (yielding 5.2–6.8 MHz switching), alongside EN-controlled startup with exponential soft-start ramping and displacement-current-limited inrush protection. Thermal shutdown activates at 150°C with 15°C hysteresis, and over-current protection triggers hiccup-mode restart after 16 current-limit cycles.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.050 V ±4.7% (0–600 mA load, PWM mode); ensures precise core voltage for low-power processors and RF ICs. |
| Max Output Current | 600 mA continuous; supports mid-tier SoC cores, PMIC rails, and peripheral I/O supplies in space-constrained designs. |
| Switching Frequency | 6 MHz nominal (5.4–6.6 MHz range); enables ultra-small 470 nH inductors and 4.7 µF output capacitors, minimizing PCB footprint. |
| Quiescent Current | 24 µA typical in PFM mode; extends battery life in always-on subsystems like sensor hubs and modem standby states. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.3 V to 5.5 V; compatible with single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2 V), USB-powered (5 V), and wide-input PMIC outputs. |
| UVLO Threshold | 2.27 V rising; prevents erratic startup during brown-out conditions and ensures clean enablement above minimum battery voltage. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C activation with 15°C hysteresis; protects die under sustained overload or poor thermal layout without requiring external monitoring. |
| Output Discharge | Enabled (230 Ω path to GND when EN = LOW); eliminates residual voltage on VOUT during shutdown, critical for sequencing-sensitive systems. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-bump Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP-6), 0.4 mm pitch, 1.16 mm × 0.86 mm footprint, 586 µm typical height (547–625 µm range), bottom-side solder bumps with NSMD land pattern.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | MODE | Configures operating mode: logic HIGH forces fixed-frequency PWM; logic LOW enables auto PFM/PWM transition; also accepts 1.3–1.7 MHz sync signal (×4 multiplication). |
| B1 | SW | Switching node connection to inductor; carries high di/dt pulsed current; requires short, low-inductance trace to minimize EMI and voltage spikes. |
| C1 | FB | Feedback input tied directly to output capacitor; sets regulated voltage via internal 1.050 V reference; no external resistor divider needed. |
| C2 | GND | Power and signal ground reference; must be connected to low-impedance PCB plane adjacent to CIN/COUT common node. |
| B2 | EN | Enable control: >1.2 V enables regulation with soft-start; <0.4 V disables device and activates output discharge; floating prohibited. |
| A2 | VIN | Main input supply (2.3–5.5 V); requires local 2.2 µF ceramic capacitor placed within 2 mm of pin to suppress high-frequency ripple. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Best-in-class light-load efficiency | 80%+ efficiency at 1 mA load due to 24 µA quiescent current and DCM PFM architecture-critical for IoT sleep modes. |
| Ultra-fast load transient response | Sub-10 µs recovery from 10–200–10 mA steps without external compensation-enables dynamic voltage scaling for burst-mode processors. |
| Integrated soft-start with inrush limiting | Exponential ramp (50 mV/µs to 1 V, then 12.5 mV/µs) plus cycle-by-cycle current limit prevents overshoot and startup failure into large COUT. |
| External clock synchronization | MODE pin accepts 1.3–1.7 MHz square wave to lock switching frequency to 5.2–6.8 MHz-eliminates beat frequencies in multi-rail systems. |
| Active output discharge | 230 Ω internal path discharges FB to GND when EN = LOW-ensures safe, rapid rail collapse for power sequencing compliance. |
| Robust fault protection | Combined thermal shutdown (150°C), hiccup-mode over-current (16-cycle limit), and UVLO prevent damage during faults or miswiring. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62231DRYR | 1.05 V fixed output, 600 mA, 3.6 MHz, 22 µA IQ, WSON-6 (2 mm × 2 mm) | Larger 2 mm × 2 mm package vs. FAN53601AUC105X's 1.16 mm × 0.86 mm WLCSP; lacks external sync and active discharge. | Choose TPS62231DRYR if board space allows larger footprint and sync/discharge features are unnecessary. |
| RT7295BGJ6F | 1.05 V fixed output, 600 mA, 2 MHz, 35 µA IQ, TSOT-23-6 | Lower 2 MHz frequency requires larger 2.2 µH inductor and 10 µF capacitor; higher IQ reduces battery life in always-on use cases. | Choose RT7295BGJ6F only for cost-sensitive designs where 6 MHz size/efficiency benefits are secondary to BOM cost. |
Compared with TPS62231DRYR and RT7295BGJ6F, the FAN53601AUC105X delivers superior miniaturization (6-bump WLCSP), lower quiescent current, and unique features including external clock synchronization and active output discharge-making it optimal for next-generation portable devices where PCB area, battery life, and power sequencing are critical.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the FAN53601AUC105X under full load?
The FAN53601AUC105X delivers 1.050 V with ±4.7% accuracy (1.003 V to 1.097 V) across 0–600 mA load at TA = –40°C to +85°C in AUTO mode. In forced PWM mode, tolerance tightens to ±3.2% (1.016 V to 1.084 V). This specification is validated per the onsemi datasheet Rev. 2, Section "Electrical Characteristics".
Does the FAN53601AUC105X require external feedback resistors?
No, the FAN53601AUC105X is a fixed-output regulator with an internal 1.050 V reference connected directly to the FB pin. The FB pin must be tied to the output capacitor node without any external resistor divider-simplifying layout and eliminating resistor tolerance errors. This is confirmed in the "Pin Definitions" and "Typical Application" sections of the datasheet.
How does the MODE pin function in the FAN53601AUC105X?
The MODE pin on the FAN53601AUC105X serves three functions: (1) logic HIGH forces fixed-frequency PWM operation; (2) logic LOW enables automatic PFM/PWM mode switching; (3) a 1.3–1.7 MHz square wave input synchronizes switching to 5.2–6.8 MHz. It includes internal Schmitt triggering for noise immunity, as specified in the "Pin Definitions" and "Operation Description" sections.
What is the maximum recommended output capacitance for stable operation of the FAN53601AUC105X?
The FAN53601AUC105X supports output capacitances up to 12.0 µF without compromising stability, as stated in the "Recommended Operating Conditions" table. Increasing COUT beyond the typical 4.7 µF improves transient response and reduces output ripple but does not affect loop compensation-enabling design flexibility for varying load dynamics.
Is the FAN53601AUC105X RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, the FAN53601AUC105X is RoHS-compliant and halogen-free per onsemi's material declarations and packaging specifications. The WLCSP-6 package uses lead-free solder bumps and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1), verified in the "Physical Dimensions" and compliance documentation referenced in the datasheet.
