Product details
Overview
FAN5362UC29X from ON Semiconductor is a 2.9V fixed-output, 500mA synchronous buck regulator operating at 3MHz switching frequency with 45µA quiescent current and 2.7V–5.5V input range. It delivers peak efficiency of 96% and supports seamless 100% duty-cycle operation for low-dropout regulation in space-constrained mobile power rails.
For engineers reviewing the FAN5362UC29X datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its WLCSP-6 package footprint, PFM/PWM mode control via MODE pin, ±3% output voltage accuracy at 500mA load, thermal shutdown at 150°C, and compatibility with 1µH inductors and 4.7µF ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The FAN5362UC29X employs a proprietary non-linear fixed-frequency PWM modulator that maintains 3MHz operation across wide VIN and ILOAD ranges while enabling fast load transient response independent of output capacitor ESR. Its synchronous rectification architecture uses integrated PMOS/NMOS switches with 330mΩ/300mΩ RDS(on) to achieve high efficiency down to 1mA load.
Operation includes automatic PFM mode below ~100mA for ultra-low quiescent current (45µA), forced PWM mode via MODE pin, and smooth transitions between PWM, PFM, and 100% duty cycle-enabling stable regulation even as VIN approaches VOUT = 2.9V. Input UVLO triggers at 2.6V with 175mV hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.9V ±3% at 0–500mA load; ensures precise rail generation for RF transceivers and memory interfaces. |
| Switching Frequency | 3.0MHz nominal; enables use of compact 1µH inductor and 4.7µF ceramic output capacitor. |
| Quiescent Current | 45µA typical in PFM mode; extends battery life in always-on mobile subsystems. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V; supports direct connection to single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V) or dual-cell alkaline supplies. |
| Peak Efficiency | 96% at full load; minimizes thermal dissipation in thermally constrained handheld PCBs. |
| Thermal Shutdown | Activates at 150°C with 20°C hysteresis; protects die during sustained overload or poor heatsinking. |

Pinout & Package
Package: 6-bump Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP), 0.4mm pitch, 2×3 array, 547–625µm height, bottom-side solder bumps.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | MODE | Configures PFM auto-switching (LOW) or forced PWM (HIGH); also accepts external sync clock at 1.5MHz. |
| B1 | SW | Switching node connecting internal high-side PMOS and low-side NMOS to external inductor. |
| C1 | FB | Feedback input tied directly to VOUT; no external resistor divider required for fixed 2.9V output. |
| C2 | GND | Power and signal ground reference; must be connected to low-impedance PCB plane under IC. |
| B2 | EN | Enable input with 1.2V threshold; pulls FB to GND during shutdown to discharge output capacitance. |
| A2 | VIN | Main input supply (2.7–5.5V); requires local 2.2µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Seamless 100% duty cycle | Enables dropout operation when VIN drops to ≤2.9V + VDROPOUT (≈150mV at 500mA), avoiding brownout in battery sag conditions. |
| Best-in-class load transient response | Delivers <18mV output glitch during PWM↔PFM transitions and rapid recovery from 0→500mA load steps. |
| Internal soft-start | Exponential ramp limits inrush current; prevents current-limit shutdown during startup into pre-charged loads. |
| Forced PWM and sync capability | Disables PFM noise for EMI-sensitive applications and allows synchronization to system clock to avoid beat frequencies. |
| Ultra-thin WLCSP packaging | 0.625mm × 0.960mm footprint with 586µm height enables integration beneath displays or in stacked-die modules. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output current supported by the FAN5362UC29X?
The FAN5362UC29X supports a continuous output current of 500mA at its fixed 2.9V output. This rating assumes proper thermal management using the WLCSP-6 package on a 4-layer PCB per JEDEC JESD51, with junction temperature maintained below 125°C. Peak current limit is 800–1150mA depending on input voltage and temperature.
Does the FAN5362UC29X require external feedback resistors to set the output voltage?
No, the FAN5362UC29X does not require external feedback resistors. It is a fixed-output device with an internally trimmed 2.9V regulator, and the FB pin is connected directly to the output capacitor. The part number suffix "UC29X" explicitly denotes the 2.9V variant, eliminating the need for external resistor networks.
How does the MODE pin function on the FAN5362UC29X?
The MODE pin on the FAN5362UC29X controls operating mode: pulling it LOW enables automatic PFM/PWM transition for light-load efficiency, while pulling it HIGH forces continuous PWM operation to suppress frequency variation. When toggled with a square wave, it synchronizes the FAN5362UC29X to four times the input frequency, supporting system-level clock alignment.
What package type is used for the FAN5362UC29X?
The FAN5362UC29X uses a 6-bump Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP) with 0.4mm pitch, 2×3 bump array, and dimensions of 0.625mm × 0.960mm. Its height is 586µm ±39µm, making it suitable for ultra-thin mobile devices. The package features bottom-side solder bumps and requires NSMD land pattern per Fairchild drawing UC006ACrev4.
Can the FAN5362UC29X operate with input voltage below the output voltage?
Yes, the FAN5362UC29X supports seamless 100% duty cycle operation when input voltage drops to or below the 2.9V output level. In this mode, it functions as a low-dropout linear regulator with dropout voltage determined by PMOS RDS(on) and inductor DCR-typically ≈150mV at 500mA-allowing continued regulation during battery voltage sag.
