Product details
Overview
LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified ultra-low quiescent current linear voltage regulator delivering a fixed 3.3V output at up to 50mA, with ≤25µA ground pin current at 0.1mA load and 200mV typical dropout at full load - designed for automotive body electronics, battery-backed sensors, and always-on microcontroller power rails.
For engineers reviewing the LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB datasheet, LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB pinout, LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB application, or LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its −45V reverse transient protection, 40V maximum operating input voltage, ±5% output tolerance over −40°C to +125°C, and SOIC-8 package compatibility with automotive thermal and reliability requirements.
Technical Context
The LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB uses a PNP pass transistor architecture enabling low-dropout operation while maintaining regulation down to 5.5V input, with internal short-circuit current limiting (65–250mA) and thermal shutdown triggered at ~150°C junction temperature. Its ground pin current remains stable across line, load, and temperature - critical for battery lifetime in infrequent-wake systems.
It features −45V reverse-battery protection and survives input transients up to +55V, but continuous operation above 40V is prohibited due to safe-operating-area constraints. Ripple rejection is −40dB to −60dB at 120Hz, and stability requires 22–33µF output capacitance with 0.3–8Ω ESR.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±5% over −40°C to +125°C, 0.1–50mA load, and 5.5–40V input - ensures stable MCU core/logic rail under automotive thermal and supply variation. |
| Quiescent Current | ≤25µA at 0.1mA load - enables >10-year battery life in low-duty-cycle sensor nodes powered by coin cells or small Li-ion packs. |
| Dropout Voltage | 200mV typical at 50mA - allows regulation from 3.5V input, supporting start-stop engine scenarios where battery dips to 6–7V nominal. |
| Input Voltage Range | Operational: 5.5V to 40V; Survival: −45V to +55V - covers cold-crank, load-dump, and reverse-battery fault conditions per ISO 7637-2. |
| Thermal Protection | Internal shutdown at ~150°C junction - prevents permanent damage during sustained overload or poor PCB heatsinking in enclosed modules. |
| Package | SOIC-8 (D0008A), RoHS-compliant, MSL Level-1 - supports standard automated assembly and meets automotive reflow profile requirements. |
| Stability Requirement | 22–33µF output capacitor with 0.3–8Ω ESR - mandates low-ESR tantalum or polymer capacitors; ceramic-only designs require external ESR or damping. |
Pinout & Package
LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D0008A) package with exposed pad not electrically connected. The package measures 4.9mm × 3.9mm × 1.75mm and is rated for −40°C to +125°C ambient operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN) | Input voltage supply | Accepts 5.5V–40V DC input; must be decoupled near pin with ≥1µF ceramic capacitor to suppress high-frequency noise. |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Low-impedance return path for load and regulator bias; connects to PCB ground plane for thermal and noise control. |
| 3 (OUT) | Regulated output | Delivers 3.3V ±5% to load; requires 22–33µF output capacitor with specified ESR placed adjacent to this pin. |
| 4 (GND) | Ground reference | Second ground terminal - internally tied to Pin 2; improves thermal conduction and reduces ground loop impedance. |
| 5 (GND) | Ground reference | Third ground terminal - internally tied to Pins 2 and 4; enhances thermal dissipation and noise immunity in high-noise environments. |
| 6 (GND) | Ground reference | Fourth ground terminal - internally tied to Pins 2, 4, and 5; provides robust grounding for automotive EMI resilience. |
| 7 (GND) | Ground reference | Fifth ground terminal - internally tied to all other GND pins; minimizes voltage drop under dynamic load steps. |
| 8 (GND) | Ground reference | Sixth ground terminal - completes low-inductance ground network; essential for meeting AEC-Q100 EMC test limits. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for −40°C to +125°C operation - enables direct use in engine bay, transmission control, and ADAS domain controllers without derating. |
| Ultra-low ground pin current | ≤25µA at 0.1mA load - eliminates need for external enable/disable circuitry in always-on wake-up circuits like CAN transceivers or RTCs. |
| −45V reverse transient protection | Withstands reverse-battery connection without external diode - reduces BOM count and PCB area in cost-sensitive automotive modules. |
| Internal thermal shutdown | ~150°C trip point with hysteresis - protects against soldering defects, miswiring, or sustained overload without requiring external thermal monitoring. |
| Short-circuit current limiting | 65–250mA foldback limit - prevents catastrophic failure during output shorts while allowing safe auto-recovery when fault clears. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-low-quiescent-current LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLD1120-33V | Higher quiescent current (35µA vs. 25µA), lower max input (28V vs. 40V), no reverse-battery protection | Lacks −45V reverse transient rating; requires external protection diode in automotive applications | Consider only for non-automotive industrial use where input stays below 28V and reverse faults are excluded. |
| MCP1703T-3302E/MB | Lower quiescent current (2.5µA), but only 200mA output, no reverse-battery or load-dump protection | Not AEC-Q100 qualified; limited to commercial-temperature industrial or consumer use | Use where ultra-low IQ dominates and automotive qualification or high-voltage transients are irrelevant. |
Compared with LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB, TLD1120-33V trades reverse-battery robustness for slightly higher IQ and lower voltage rating, while MCP1703T-3302E/MB offers dramatically lower IQ but sacrifices automotive qualification, transient protection, and thermal safety margins - making LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB the sole choice for AEC-Q100-compliant 3.3V LDOs needing integrated reverse and load-dump resilience.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for continuous operation of the LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB?
The LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB supports continuous operation up to 40V input. Although it can survive transients up to +55V and −45V, exceeding 40V during normal operation risks violating the safe operating area of the internal PNP pass device and may cause premature failure. Designers must ensure system-level clamping or filtering limits operational input to ≤40V.
Does the LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB require an external capacitor on the output pin?
Yes, the LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB requires a 22–33µF output capacitor with 0.3–8Ω effective series resistance (ESR) for stability. Ceramic capacitors alone typically have insufficient ESR and may cause oscillation unless damped externally. Tantalum or polymer capacitors meeting the ESR range are recommended and must be placed adjacent to the OUT and GND pins.
Is the LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB pin-compatible with other variants in the LM9036Q family?
Yes, the LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB shares identical SOIC-8 (D0008A) pinout and footprint with LM9036QM-5.0/NOPB and all other SOIC-packaged LM9036Q variants. This allows board-level voltage rail flexibility - for example, swapping 3.3V and 5.0V versions without layout changes - provided input/output capacitor values are updated per datasheet recommendations.
How does the LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB handle reverse-battery conditions?
The LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB integrates −45V reverse-battery protection, meaning it withstands direct connection of battery terminals in reverse polarity without damage or excessive current draw. This eliminates the need for an external series Schottky diode in automotive applications, reducing voltage drop, heat generation, and BOM cost - a key differentiator versus standard LDOs.
What is the guaranteed output voltage tolerance of the LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB over temperature and load?
The LM9036QM-3.3/NOPB guarantees ±5% output voltage tolerance across the full operating range: −40°C to +125°C junction temperature, 0.1mA to 50mA load current, and 5.5V to 40V input voltage. This is verified per AEC-Q100 stress testing and applies to every unit shipped - ensuring consistent performance in automotive and industrial deployments without post-manufacturing calibration.
