Product details

Overview

FAN5602MU33X from Fairchild Semiconductor is a universal switched-capacitor DC/DC charge pump converter supporting both step-up and step-down operation with fixed 3.3V output. It delivers up to 200mA at VIN = 3.6V, operates across 2.7V–5.5V input, achieves ±3% output voltage accuracy, and features adaptive fractional switching (1:3, 1:2, 2:3, 1:1, etc.) for optimal efficiency in portable power management applications such as cell phone core supplies.

For engineers reviewing the FAN5602MU33X datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, confirmed alternative options, and supply-ready availability details - all specific to the 3.3V-output, 3×3mm 8-lead MLP variant.

Technical Context

The FAN5602MU33X implements resistance-modulated linear regulation loop control to minimize switching noise and enable LDO-like operation in 1:1 mode when VIN ≈ VOUT. Its internal logic continuously monitors VIN/VOUT ratio and automatically selects among seven switch configurations-including 1:1 (LDO), 2:3 (step-up), 1:2 (step-up), and 3:2 (step-down)-to maximize efficiency across wide input/output combinations.

Under light load (<10mA), it transitions from constant-frequency (1MHz) PWM to pulse-skipping (PFM) mode to reduce quiescent current to <1µA in shutdown. Soft-start limits inrush current during power-on, while short-circuit protection disables power transistors and engages a current-limited pass path when VOUT drops below 150mV.

Key Specifications

Parameter Value and Actual Design Meaning
Output Voltage Fixed 3.3V ±3% - enables direct replacement of LDOs in 3.3V rail generation without external feedback resistors.
Input Voltage Range 2.7V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion (3.2–4.2V), NiMH, or dual-cell alkaline inputs without external regulators.
Max Output Current 200mA at VIN = 3.6V - sufficient for low-power processors, DSPs, and RF ICs in handheld devices.
Peak Efficiency 92% - achieved in 2:1 or 3:2 modes, reducing thermal load and extending battery runtime in portable systems.
Operating Frequency 1MHz (±30%) - allows use of small 1µF ceramic bucket capacitors and minimizes EMI filtering requirements.
Shutdown Current <1µA - preserves battery life during system sleep modes without requiring external load switches.
Voltage Ripple 10mVpp at 200mA load - meets noise-sensitive analog and RF supply requirements without additional LC filtering.

Pinout & Package

Package: 3×3mm 8-lead molded leadless package (MLP), RoHS-compliant, 0.8mm profile, thermal pad exposed on bottom.

Pin/Terminal Circuit Role Design Meaning
VIN Power input Accepts 2.7–5.5V supply; connects to 10µF input capacitor and internal UVLO (1.7V threshold).
C2+ Flying capacitor terminal Positive node for second 1µF bucket capacitor; participates in 2:3, 1:2, and 1:3 charge-pump phases.
C2− Flying capacitor terminal Negative node for second 1µF bucket capacitor; referenced to GND or VIN depending on mode.
GND Ground reference Primary return path for all internal circuits and external capacitors; must be low-impedance PCB plane.
C1− Flying capacitor terminal Negative node for first 1µF bucket capacitor; shared with C2− in some modes (e.g., 1:1 LDO).
VOUT Regulated output Delivers fixed 3.3V; requires 10µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor; short-circuit protected to 150mV threshold.
C1+ Flying capacitor terminal Positive node for first 1µF bucket capacitor; forms charge-transfer path with C1− and C2 terminals.
ENABLE Logic control input Active-high (VIH ≥ 1.5V); pulls supply current to <1µA when low; must not be left floating.

Key Features

Feature Design Value
Adaptive switch topology Automatically selects among 1:1, 2:3, 1:2, 1:3, 3:2, 2:1, 3:1 configurations based on VIN/VOUT ratio - eliminates manual mode selection and ensures peak efficiency across operating conditions.
Hybrid regulation architecture Combines linear regulation loop (for low-noise 1:1 LDO mode) and PFM-controlled charge pumping (for high-efficiency light-load operation) - reduces output ripple to microvolt range and extends battery life.
No-inductor design Uses only three external ceramic capacitors (two 1µF flying + one 10µF output) - eliminates magnetic EMI, simplifies layout, and reduces BOM cost vs. inductive DC/DC converters.
Integrated protection Includes thermal shutdown (145°C trip, 15°C hysteresis), short-circuit current limiting, and soft-start (500µs ramp) - prevents damage during fault conditions and avoids input supply sag at startup.
Low-noise constant-frequency operation Maintains 1MHz switching under loads >10mA - enables predictable EMI filtering and avoids interference with sensitive RF or audio circuits.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar charge pump regulator applications.

Alternative Part Technical Difference Application Difference Selection Advice
MAX8815AETA+T Fixed 3.3V output, 250mA max, 1.2MHz switching, requires external feedback for adjustable versions; no 1:1 LDO mode. Lacks true LDO-equivalent operation - higher light-load ripple and no microvolt-range regulation at VIN ≈ VOUT. Prefer FAN5602MU33X when ultra-low-noise 3.3V supply near input voltage is required; choose MAX8815AETA+T for higher current headroom and tighter factory-trimmed accuracy (±1.5%).
TLC7660CPW CMOS voltage converter (inverting only), ±3.3V output, 20mA max, no regulation, no shutdown, no protection. Unregulated charge pump - unsuitable for powering logic rails; limited to simple level-shifting or bias generation. FAN5602MU33X is functionally distinct: it is a regulated, protected, non-inverting universal converter; TLC7660CPW is a legacy unregulated inverter - not a drop-in or functional substitute.

Compared with MAX8815AETA+T and TLC7660CPW, the FAN5602MU33X uniquely combines adaptive topology, integrated LDO-mode operation, and comprehensive protection - making it the only option among the three capable of delivering regulated 3.3V with microvolt ripple, 200mA capability, and full fault resilience in space-constrained portable designs.

FAQ

What is the exact output voltage tolerance of the FAN5602MU33X?

The FAN5602MU33X delivers a fixed 3.3V output with ±3% accuracy over temperature (−40°C to +85°C), input voltage (2.7V–5.5V), and load (0–100mA). This specification is guaranteed per the datasheet's DC Electrical Characteristics table and applies regardless of operating mode (1:1, 2:3, etc.). The FAN5602MU33X does not require external feedback components to maintain this tolerance.

Does the FAN5602MU33X support true LDO-like operation?

Yes - the FAN5602MU33X enters 1:1 mode when VIN is within ~10% of 3.3V (e.g., 3.0V–3.6V), disabling the oscillator and using internal pass transistors controlled by the linear regulation loop. In this state, the FAN5602MU33X behaves electrically like an LDO: output ripple drops to microvolt range, no switching noise is generated, and efficiency remains high due to zero dynamic loss.

What external capacitors are mandatory for stable operation of the FAN5602MU33X?

The FAN5602MU33X requires exactly three external ceramic capacitors: two 1µF low-ESR flying capacitors (C1 and C2) connected to pins C1+/C1− and C2+/C2−, and one 10µF low-ESR output capacitor (COUT) connected to VOUT and GND. Input capacitance (CIN) is recommended but not mandatory if the source has low impedance. All capacitors must be placed within 3mm of their respective pins.

How does the FAN5602MU33X handle short-circuit conditions?

When VOUT falls below 150mV, the FAN5602MU33X immediately disables all main power transistors and activates a dedicated small-current pass transistor between VIN and VOUT. This limits fault current to approximately 200mA while allowing the output to recover once the short is removed. After recovery, the FAN5602MU33X re-enters soft-start to prevent inrush.

Is the FAN5602MU33X pin-compatible with other variants in the FAN5602 family?

Yes - all FAN5602 variants (including FAN5602MP33X, FAN5602MP45X, FAN5602MP5X, and FAN5602MU33X) share identical 3×3mm 8-lead MLP pinout and footprint. The only difference is factory-trimmed output voltage; no PCB redesign is needed when substituting between 3.3V, 4.5V, or 5.0V versions.
