Product details
Overview
ILC6383CIR50X from Fairchild Semiconductor is a fixed 5V-output, synchronous step-up DC-DC converter optimized for single- to triple-cell battery inputs (0.9V–3.0V). It delivers up to 300mA at 5V from a 3V input, features true load disconnect in shutdown (<1µA battery leakage), and integrates PFM/PWM mode selection via the SEL pin. It is used in cellular phones and portable electronics requiring high-efficiency, low-noise voltage boosting.
For engineers reviewing the ILC6383CIR50X datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include guaranteed 0.9V startup, ±3.5% output accuracy over –40°C to +85°C, 300kHz oscillator with ±15% tolerance, open-drain POK flag, and low-battery detection with 100ms transient rejection delay.
Technical Context
The ILC6383CIR50X employs a dual-mode PWM/PFM architecture: PWM mode (SEL open) provides fixed 300kHz switching for noise-sensitive applications like RF sections, while PFM mode (SEL grounded) enables pulse-skipping for >90% efficiency at light loads. Internal synchronous rectification eliminates external diode losses.
Its control loop regulates output using an internal 1.25V reference and integrated comparator circuitry. The LBI/SD pin serves dual function-setting low-battery threshold via external resistor divider and enabling shutdown when pulled below 0.4V-while the POK pin asserts open-drain high when VOUT reaches 92–98% of nominal 5.0V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0V ±3.5% over –40°C to +85°C; ensures stable rail for logic and RF ICs without external feedback components. |
| Input Voltage Range | 0.9V to 3.0V; supports operation down to single alkaline or NiMH cell, enabling compact battery-powered designs. |
| Max Output Current | 300mA at 5V from 3V input; sufficient to power baseband processors or display drivers in handheld devices. |
| Oscillator Frequency | 300kHz ±15%; places fundamental switching energy outside audio band (<20kHz) and avoids 455kHz IF interference. |
| Shutdown Input Current | <1µA at VOUT = 0V; prevents battery drain during system sleep or off-state in portable equipment. |
| Power Good Threshold | 0.92×VOUT to 0.98×VOUT (i.e., 4.6V–4.9V); provides reliable system reset or enable signaling before downstream circuits activate. |
| Low Battery Detection Delay | 100ms hold time; rejects short transients (e.g., GSM pulse loading) to avoid false low-battery alerts. |
Pinout & Package
ILC6383CIR50X is housed in an 8-pin MSOP package (3.0mm × 3.0mm, 0.65mm pitch), optimized for space-constrained portable PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| LX | Switch node | Connects to inductor; carries high di/dt current during switching; requires low-inductance layout to minimize EMI. |
| VIN | Battery input | Accepts 0.9V–3.0V unregulated source; must be decoupled with ≥47µF ceramic capacitor near pin. |
| LBI/SD | Low-battery detect input / shutdown control | Configurable threshold via resistor divider; <0.4V forces shutdown and true load disconnect. |
| SEL | Mode select | Grounded → PFM mode (high efficiency at light load); open/high → PWM mode (low noise, constant frequency). |
| POK | Power good output | Open-drain flag; requires external pull-up; signals VOUT regulation status to host controller or PMIC. |
| LBO | Low-battery output | Open-drain active-low signal; sinks 2mA; indicates battery voltage below user-set LBI threshold. |
| GND | Power ground | Primary return path for LX and VIN currents; must be star-connected to minimize noise coupling. |
| VOUT | Regulated 5.0V output | Supplies downstream loads; requires low-ESR/low-ESL output capacitor (e.g., 47µF X5R ceramic) within 6mm. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous rectification | Eliminates external Schottky diode, reducing conduction loss and board area; improves efficiency by ~5–8% vs. asynchronous designs. |
| True load disconnect | Shuts off both high-side and low-side switches in shutdown, limiting battery-to-VOUT leakage to <1µA-critical for long shelf life. |
| Dual PFM/PWM operation | Enables >90% efficiency across 1mA–300mA load range: PFM extends battery runtime in standby; PWM ensures clean power for RF/analog blocks. |
| Integrated low-battery detector | 100ms built-in delay rejects GSM burst-induced voltage sags; avoids spurious system resets or UI warnings during transmission. |
| 300kHz fixed-frequency PWM | Places fundamental switching energy at predictable frequency, simplifying EMI filter design and avoiding sensitive IF bands (e.g., 455kHz). |
Applications
| Cellular Phone Power Management | Handheld PDA Core Supply |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-up DC-DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS61022DRVR | Higher 5.5V max input; 2.5MHz switching; no integrated LBO; requires external feedback resistors even for fixed 5V. | Better suited for space-constrained designs needing smaller inductors; lacks native low-battery detection and true shutdown disconnect. | Select if board area is critical and LBO/SD functionality is implemented elsewhere; verify POK timing compatibility with host MCU. |
| MAX8625ETE+ | Fixed 5V output; 1.2MHz switching; 2.7–5.5V input range; includes thermal shutdown but no LBO/SD dual-function pin. | Requires ≥2.7V input-cannot start from single-cell 0.9V; better for Li-ion-only systems where higher Vin is guaranteed. | Choose only for 2-cell Li-ion or USB-powered applications; not viable for single-cell alkaline/NiMH due to minimum Vin violation. |
Compared with TPS61022DRVR and MAX8625ETE+, the ILC6383CIR50X uniquely combines sub-1V startup, integrated LBO/SD dual-function pin, true load disconnect, and 300kHz EMI-optimized frequency-all in an MSOP-8 package-making it irreplaceable for legacy single-cell portable designs requiring robust battery monitoring and minimal BOM count.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for ILC6383CIR50X to start up and regulate 5V output?
The ILC6383CIR50X guarantees startup in PWM mode at 0.9V input with 10mA load. This enables operation from deeply discharged single-cell alkaline or NiMH batteries. Startup voltage increases slightly in PFM mode and depends on load; typical startup at 1.0V is observed for 1mA loads per the datasheet's performance curves.
Does ILC6383CIR50X require external components to set its 5V output voltage?
No. The ILC6383CIR50X is a fixed-output variant-its 5.0V regulation is achieved internally without external feedback resistors. Unlike the ILC6383CIR-ADJ version, it uses trimmed internal reference and feedback network, simplifying design and reducing BOM count for standard 5V applications.
How does the LBI/SD pin function in ILC6383CIR50X, and what external circuitry is needed?
The LBI/SD pin serves dual roles: setting low-battery threshold (via resistor divider to VIN) and enabling shutdown (when pulled <0.4V). For basic shutdown, connect directly to ground through a logic-level FET. For battery monitoring, use two resistors (e.g., R5=100kΩ, R6=100kΩ) to set threshold; the datasheet provides exact formulas based on internal 1.25V reference.
What is the purpose of the SEL pin on ILC6383CIR50X, and how does it affect efficiency?
The SEL pin selects between PFM (SEL = LOW) and PWM (SEL = open or >1.5V) operation modes. PFM maximizes light-load efficiency (>90% at 1mA) via pulse skipping; PWM maintains constant 300kHz frequency for low-noise, predictable EMI filtering-critical in RF sections. Efficiency drops ~2–3% at full load in PFM vs. PWM due to variable frequency control limitations.
Can ILC6383CIR50X drive a 300mA load continuously at 5V from a 1.2V input?
No. At 1.2V input, the ILC6383CIR50X delivers only 75mA at 5V (per Electrical Characteristics table, VIN = 1.2V condition). Full 300mA capability requires ≥3.0V input. Attempting 300mA at 1.2V will cause output droop or regulation loss; design must match load current to achievable input voltage per the datasheet's IOUT vs. VIN curves.
