Product details
Overview
MC33275D-5.0R2 from onsemi is a fixed-output 5.0 V, 300 mA low-dropout (LDO) linear voltage regulator in SOIC-8 package, featuring 260 mV dropout at full load, ±2% output voltage tolerance over −40°C to +125°C, and internal thermal shutdown and current limiting. It delivers stable power to microcontrollers, sensors, and analog circuitry in battery-powered handheld instruments and industrial control modules.
For engineers reviewing the MC33275D-5.0R2 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include dropout performance at 300 mA, quiescent current under 200 µA, stability with ≤0.22 µF output capacitance, and SOIC-8 thermal resistance (RJA = 160°C/W).
Technical Context
The MC33275D-5.0R2 employs a PNP pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout-25 mV at 10 mA and 260 mV at 300 mA-while maintaining tight line regulation (≤10 mV) and load regulation (≤25 mV). Its internal reference is trimmed to 1.23 V, and feedback network sets nominal 5.0 V output with 2% total tolerance across temperature and load.
Thermal protection activates at 150°C junction temperature without hysteresis, causing output oscillation until cooling occurs; current limiting caps output at 450 mA typical. The device operates from 5.5 V to 13 V input and remains stable with ceramic, tantalum, or aluminum electrolytic output capacitors ≥0.22 µF.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 5.0 V ±2% (−40°C to +125°C), enabling direct supply for 5 V logic and analog rails without external resistors. |
| Max Output Current | 300 mA continuous, sufficient to power multiple low-power ICs (e.g., MCU + sensor + transceiver) from single LDO. |
| Dropout Voltage | 260 mV at 300 mA, allowing operation from 5.26 V input-critical for extending battery life in 2-cell Li-ion or 4-cell alkaline systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 125–200 µA (typ–max), minimizing standby power loss in always-on monitoring circuits. |
| Line Regulation | ≤10 mV over 6–12 V input range, ensuring stable output despite battery voltage sag or supply ripple. |
| Load Regulation | ≤25 mV from 0–250 mA load step, preserving ADC reference accuracy and sensor signal integrity. |
| Ripple Rejection | ≥65 dB at 120 Hz, suppressing switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters feeding the LDO input. |
Pinout & Package
MC33275D-5.0R2 uses SOIC-8 (Case 751, D suffix), 4.9 mm × 3.9 mm × 1.5 mm body, with exposed pad not electrically connected. Thermal resistance: RJA = 160°C/W, RJC = 25°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Vin) | Input Supply | Accepts 5.5–13 V DC; requires ≥0.33 µF bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin for transient immunity. |
| 2 (GND) | Ground Reference | Primary ground return for regulator core; must connect to low-impedance system ground plane. |
| 3 (Vout) | Regulated Output | Delivers 5.0 V ±2%; stable with ≥0.22 µF ceramic output capacitor mounted within 5 mm of pin. |
| 4 (GND) | Ground Reference | Second ground terminal-bonded internally to pin 2; improves thermal conduction and reduces ground loop inductance. |
| 5 (N/C) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating-no routing or soldering permitted. |
| 6 (N/C) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating-no routing or soldering permitted. |
| 7 (GND) | Ground Reference | Third ground terminal-bonded internally to pins 2 and 4; enhances thermal dissipation and EMI suppression. |
| 8 (GND) | Ground Reference | Fourth ground terminal-bonded internally; provides lowest-inductance path for high-frequency ground return. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-Low Dropout | 25 mV @ 10 mA enables operation from near-regulated input-ideal for post-regulation in multi-rail systems. |
| Low Quiescent Current | 125 µA typ preserves battery capacity in sleep-mode applications such as remote sensors and wearables. |
| Minimal Output Capacitance | Stable with only 0.22 µF ceramic capacitor-reduces BOM count and PCB area vs. traditional LDOs requiring ≥10 µF. |
| Integrated Protection | Current limit (450 mA typ) and thermal shutdown (150°C) eliminate need for external fault-handling circuitry. |
| Pb-Free & AEC-Q100 Capable | RoHS-compliant SOIC-8 package; NCV variant qualified for automotive use-MC33275D-5.0R2 shares same die and process. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| NCP1117ST50T3G | Higher dropout (1.2 V @ 800 mA), SO-8 package, 1.1 A rating, but 800 µA quiescent current. | Better for high-current, non-battery apps; unsuitable for <100 µA standby systems. | Choose when output current >500 mA required and quiescent current is not critical. |
| MCP1703T-5002E/MB | Lower quiescent current (1.8 µA), SOT-23-5, 250 mA rating, 600 mV dropout @ 250 mA. | Superior for ultra-low-power IoT nodes; limited thermal capability due to small package. | Prefer for coin-cell or energy-harvesting designs where <5 µA IQ is mandatory and current ≤250 mA. |
Compared with NCP1117ST50T3G and MCP1703T-5002E/MB, MC33275D-5.0R2 uniquely balances 300 mA output, 260 mV dropout, and 200 µA max IQ in a thermally robust SOIC-8-making it optimal for mid-power portable industrial and medical devices needing both efficiency and reliability.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for MC33275D-5.0R2 to maintain regulation at 300 mA load?
The MC33275D-5.0R2 requires a minimum input voltage of 5.26 V to sustain 5.0 V output at 300 mA, based on its maximum dropout voltage of 260 mV. Below this, output voltage drops linearly with input; operation below 5.26 V is permissible only in dropout mode with reduced output.
Can MC33275D-5.0R2 be used with ceramic output capacitors smaller than 1 µF?
Yes-MC33275D-5.0R2 is stable with as little as 0.22 µF ceramic output capacitance for the 5.0 V version, per datasheet Section 8. This eliminates need for large bulk capacitors and supports compact, cost-effective designs without compromising stability.
Does MC33275D-5.0R2 include reverse polarity or reverse current protection?
No-MC33275D-5.0R2 lacks built-in reverse polarity or reverse current protection. If input can be reversed or if back-driving from output is possible, an external series Schottky diode or ideal diode controller must be added to prevent damage.
How does thermal shutdown behave in MC33275D-5.0R2 under sustained overload?
MC33275D-5.0R2 thermal shutdown activates at ~150°C junction temperature with no hysteresis. Under sustained overload, the output toggles on/off as temperature cycles across threshold-appearing as oscillation. Proper heatsinking or derating is required to avoid this mode.
Is MC33275D-5.0R2 pin-compatible with other regulators in the MC33275 family?
Yes-MC33275D-5.0R2 shares identical SOIC-8 pinout and footprint with all MC33275D-x.xR2 variants (e.g., MC33275D-3.3R2G), enabling drop-in replacement across output voltages without PCB redesign.
