Product details
Overview
MC33375D-3.0R2 from onsemi is a 3.0 V fixed-output, 300 mA micropower low-dropout linear voltage regulator in SOIC-8 (Case 751) package, featuring logic-level ON/OFF control, 260 mV dropout at 300 mA, ±2% output tolerance over −40 °C to +125 °C, and internal thermal/current limiting - designed for battery-powered industrial and automotive systems requiring extended runtime.
For engineers reviewing the MC33375D-3.0R2 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at full load, quiescent current in ON/OFF modes, stability with minimal 0.33 µF output capacitance, and AEC-Q100-compatibility of automotive-grade variants.
Technical Context
The MC33375D-3.0R2 uses a PNP pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout (25 mV at 10 mA; 260 mV at 300 mA) and micropower operation (125 µA quiescent current in ON mode, 0.3 µA in OFF mode). Its internal reference is trimmed to 1.23 V, and regulation is maintained across input voltages from 3.05 V to 13 V.
Thermal shutdown activates at 150 °C with no hysteresis, causing output oscillation until junction cooling occurs; current limit is fixed at 450 mA. The ON/OFF pin accepts TTL/CMOS-compatible logic levels (VCTRL ≥ 2.4 V for ON, ≤ 0.5 V for OFF), and the device remains stable with ceramic, tantalum, or aluminum electrolytic output capacitors ≥ 0.33 µF.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.00 V ±2% (−40 °C to +125 °C), ensuring stable rail for 3.3 V I/O-tolerant microcontrollers and sensors |
| Max Output Current | 300 mA continuous, supporting moderate-power peripherals without external boost circuitry |
| Dropout Voltage | 260 mV at 300 mA, enabling operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0 V min) or 3.3 V supply rails with margin |
| Quiescent Current | 125 µA (ON), 0.3 µA (OFF), extending battery life in sleep-mode IoT endpoints and automotive body controllers |
| Line/Load Regulation | ≤10 mV line change (Vin = VO+1 V to 12 V), ≤25 mV load change (0–250 mA), minimizing voltage drift under dynamic loads |
| Ripple Rejection | ≥65 dB at 120 Hz, suppressing noise from switching power supplies upstream of analog subsystems |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150 °C junction threshold, protecting against sustained overload or poor PCB heatsinking in enclosed enclosures |
Pinout & Package
MC33375D-3.0R2 is housed in an SOIC-8 NB (Case 751) package with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. Pin 1 is located at the top-left corner adjacent to the index mark.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VIN | Main input supply connection; must be bypassed with ≥0.33 µF capacitor near pin for transient stability |
| 2 | GND | Analog ground reference; connects to system ground plane with low-inductance path to minimize noise coupling |
| 3 | VOUT | Regulated 3.0 V output; requires ≥0.33 µF output capacitor mounted directly at pin for stability |
| 4 | GND | Second ground terminal; internally tied to Pin 2, used for enhanced thermal conduction and noise isolation |
| 5 | GND | Third ground terminal; provides additional low-impedance return path for high-frequency currents |
| 6 | ON/OFF | Active-low enable control; pulled high (≥2.4 V) for regulation, ≤0.5 V to disable output and reduce IQ to 0.3 µA |
| 7 | GND | Fourth ground terminal; improves thermal dissipation and reduces ground bounce in multi-GND layout |
| 8 | VIN | Secondary input connection; internally tied to Pin 1, used for improved current sharing and thermal distribution |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-Level ON/OFF Control | Direct interface with MCU GPIOs without level-shifting; enables system-level power sequencing and deep-sleep management |
| Stable with 0.33 µF Output Cap | Eliminates need for large bulk capacitors; supports compact designs in space-constrained automotive modules and wearables |
| Internal Thermal & Current Limiting | Self-protecting operation under short-circuit or overtemperature conditions; no external foldback circuitry required |
| Low Dropout at Full Load | 260 mV @ 300 mA allows use with input rails as low as 3.26 V - critical for brownout resilience in 3.3 V systems |
| Pb-Free & AEC-Q100 Qualified Variant | NCV33375D-3.0R2G meets automotive reliability standards; MC33375D-3.0R2G targets industrial applications |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-dropout voltage regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| NCP1117ST30T3G | Fixed 3.0 V, 1 A output, higher IQ (6 mA ON), TO-220/SOT-223 only, no ON/OFF pin | Suitable for higher-current, non-battery applications where enable control is unnecessary | Select when >300 mA load or TO-220 heatsink compatibility is required; avoid for micropower or logic-controlled systems |
| MCP1700T-3002E/MB | 3.0 V, 250 mA, 1.6 µA IQ (ON), SOT-23-5, no thermal shutdown, ±0.4% initial accuracy | Better for ultra-low-IQ always-on monitoring circuits but lacks current/thermal protection | Prefer for sub-250 mA, always-active sensor biasing; reject if short-circuit robustness or 300 mA capability is mandatory |
Compared with NCP1117ST30T3G and MCP1700T-3002E/MB, the MC33375D-3.0R2 uniquely balances 300 mA drive, 0.3 µA shutdown IQ, integrated ON/OFF control, and full thermal/current protection - making it optimal for automotive and industrial battery-backed systems demanding both efficiency and fault resilience.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for MC33375D-3.0R2?
The MC33375D-3.0R2 has an absolute maximum input voltage of 13 V DC. Operation above this level risks permanent damage. For reliable long-term use, design with Vin ≤ 12 V, especially under high-temperature conditions where thermal stress compounds electrical overstress.
Does MC33375D-3.0R2 require an external pull-up resistor on the ON/OFF pin?
Yes - the ON/OFF pin of MC33375D-3.0R2 must not be left floating. A pull-up resistor (typically 10–100 kΩ) to VIN or a logic-high supply is required to ensure reliable turn-on. Pulling the pin below 0.5 V disables regulation and reduces quiescent current to 0.3 µA.
Can MC33375D-3.0R2 operate stably with a 0.22 µF output capacitor?
No - MC33375D-3.0R2 requires ≥0.33 µF output capacitance for guaranteed stability per the datasheet. While 0.22 µF may work in some cases, it falls outside the validated range and risks oscillation, especially under load transients or temperature extremes. Always use ≥0.33 µF ceramic or tantalum.
Is MC33375D-3.0R2 pin-compatible with NCV33375D-3.0R2G?
Yes - MC33375D-3.0R2 and NCV33375D-3.0R2G share identical SOIC-8 pinout, electrical specifications, and thermal characteristics. The NCV variant adds AEC-Q100 qualification, PPAP capability, and automotive-specific process controls, but no physical or functional pinout differences exist.
What is the thermal resistance (RJA) of MC33375D-3.0R2 in standard SOIC-8 layout?
In a standard SOIC-8 footprint with minimal copper (JEDEC-standard 2-layer board), the MC33375D-3.0R2 exhibits RJA = 160 °C/W. With 1-inch² 2-oz copper pour under the exposed pad, RJA improves to ~60 °C/W - critical for sustaining 300 mA at elevated ambient temperatures.
