Product details
Overview
FAN5362UMP29X from ON Semiconductor is a 2.9V fixed-output, 500mA synchronous buck regulator in a 6-lead 2×2mm UMLP package, operating at 3MHz with 45µA quiescent current and 96% peak efficiency - designed for RF transceiver and mobile application power rails requiring fast transient response and ultra-low standby power.
For engineers reviewing the FAN5362UMP29X datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 2.7–5.5V input range, PFM/PWM mode control via MODE pin, seamless 100% duty-cycle operation near dropout, thermal shutdown at 150°C, and compatibility with 1µH inductors and 4.7–24µF ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The FAN5362UMP29X implements a proprietary non-linear fixed-frequency PWM modulator with automatic transition to discontinuous-conduction-mode (DCM) PFM at light loads, maintaining <18mV VOUT glitch during mode switching. Its internal soft-start ramps the reference exponentially to prevent overshoot, while active FB discharge during shutdown ensures clean rail sequencing.
It supports forced PWM via the MODE pin (logic high), external clock synchronization at up to 1.7MHz, and operates with zero dependence on output capacitor ESR - enabling stable regulation with low-ESR ceramic capacitors. The 35ns minimum off-time (tOFF(MIN)) governs low-VIN frequency droop and defines maximum achievable VOUT/VIN ratio in fixed-frequency mode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.9V ±3% (at 0–500mA load, VIN ≥ VOUT + 300mV) - enables direct powering of 2.8–3.0V logic rails without feedback resistor network. |
| Max Output Current | 500mA continuous - sufficient for baseband processors, RF front-end ICs, and memory I/O in smartphones and data cards. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V), USB 5V, and boosted battery rails without intermediate regulation. |
| Switching Frequency | 3.0MHz nominal (2.7–3.3MHz) - allows use of compact 1µH inductors and reduces EMI fundamental frequency above sensitive RF bands. |
| Quiescent Current | 45µA typical in PFM mode - extends battery life in always-on subsystems like GPS receivers or Bluetooth LE radios. |
| Efficiency | ≥90% at 1mA load; 96% peak - maintains high conversion efficiency across full dynamic range, critical for thermally constrained mobile PCBs. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C activation with 15°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload or poor heatsinking in sealed handheld enclosures. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-lead 2 × 2mm Ultra-Thin Molded Leadless Package (UMLP), 0.65mm lead pitch, 0.55mm max height - optimized for space-constrained mobile PCBs with exposed thermal pad (pin 6 = GND).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power Input | Accepts 2.7–5.5V supply; requires local 2.2µF ceramic decoupling placed adjacent to pin to suppress switching noise and ensure stable control loop operation. |
| EN | Enable Control | Active-high digital enable (VENH = 1.05V min); pulls FB to GND during shutdown - enables precise power-rail sequencing and system-level sleep/wake control. |
| MODE | Operation Mode Select | Logic HIGH forces fixed-frequency PWM; LOW enables auto PFM/PWM transition; also accepts external sync clock at ≤1.7MHz - provides flexibility for EMI-sensitive or low-noise applications. |
| SW | Switch Node | Connects to inductor; carries high di/dt switching current - must be routed short and wide with minimal loop area to reduce radiated emissions and voltage spikes. |
| FB | Feedback / Output Sense | Internally tied to 2.9V reference; no external resistors needed - eliminates BOM cost and layout sensitivity of adjustable regulators. |
| GND | Power & Signal Ground | Common return for VIN, SW, EN, MODE, and FB; connects to thermal pad - forms primary current return path and critical thermal conduction path to PCB copper. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 3MHz Fixed-Frequency Operation | Enables use of miniature 1µH inductors and 0603/0805 ceramic capacitors - reduces solution footprint by >40% vs. 1MHz buck converters. |
| PFM Mode with 45µA IQ | Maintains >90% efficiency down to 1mA load - extends battery runtime in idle or sensor-monitoring states without sacrificing transient response. |
| Seamless 100% Duty-Cycle Transition | Eliminates output undershoot/overshoot when VIN drops near VOUT (e.g., Li-ion discharge to 3.0V) - ensures uninterrupted operation of voltage-sensitive RF ICs. |
| Internal Soft-Start (180–300µs) | Prevents inrush current and output overshoot during power-up - avoids false triggering of downstream reset circuits or brown-out detectors. |
| Thermal Shutdown + UVLO | Protects against overtemperature (150°C) and invalid input conditions (UVLO threshold = 2.6V ±0.1V) - enhances system reliability in unregulated power environments. |

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 | 2.9V fixed, 500mA, 3MHz, but uses external compensation and lacks 100% duty-cycle mode - higher BOM count and no dropout recovery. | Requires external RC network for stability; less suitable for Li-ion systems operating below 3.2V. | Choose if design already uses TI ecosystem and requires adjustable soft-start timing. |
| RT8059GJ6 | 2.9V fixed, 600mA, 3MHz, but only supports forced PWM - no PFM mode, resulting in 250µA IQ vs. 45µA. | Higher light-load power consumption limits use in battery-critical always-on functions. | Choose if absolute EMI predictability is prioritized over efficiency at microamp loads. |
Compared with TPS62231DRYR and RT8059GJ6, the FAN5362UMP29X uniquely combines ultra-low quiescent current, seamless dropout recovery, and integrated feedback - delivering superior battery life and robustness in space-constrained mobile power designs without added passives or complexity.

FAQ
What is the recommended input capacitor for FAN5362UMP29X?
The FAN5362UMP29X requires a 2.2µF X5R ceramic capacitor rated for ≥6.3V, placed directly between VIN and GND with minimal trace length. This value ensures adequate high-frequency decoupling to suppress switching noise and maintain loop stability - using smaller values risks increased input ripple and potential control loop instability.
Does FAN5362UMP29X support external synchronization?
Yes, FAN5362UMP29X supports external clock synchronization via the MODE pin. When a square wave is applied to MODE, the device synchronizes its switching frequency to four times the input frequency, up to 1.7MHz. This feature allows EMI reduction through frequency dithering or alignment with system clocks to avoid interference bands.
What is the maximum output capacitance allowed for FAN5362UMP29X?
The FAN5362UMP29X supports output capacitance up to 24µF. Exceeding this value may cause startup failure due to excessive displacement current during soft-start. For optimal transient response and ripple suppression, 4.7–10µF X5R/X7R ceramics in 0603 or 0805 packages are recommended - larger values improve load step response but require verification of startup behavior.
How does the MODE pin affect FAN5362UMP29X operation?
The MODE pin on FAN5362UMP29X controls operating mode: logic LOW enables automatic PFM/PWM transition for best light-load efficiency; logic HIGH forces continuous PWM for fixed-frequency operation and lowest output ripple. It also serves as sync input - applying a square wave toggles synchronization to 4× that frequency, enabling EMI management.
What thermal performance can be expected from FAN5362UMP29X in UMLP package?
In the 6-lead 2×2mm UMLP package, FAN5362UMP29X has a typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 49°C/W on a standard 4-layer PCB with thermal vias under the GND pad. At 500mA load and 3.6V input, junction temperature rise remains below 40°C - well within the 125°C max operating limit, provided minimum 100mm² copper pour is used beneath the package.
