Product details
Overview
MC33761SNT1-050G from onsemi is a 5.0 V ultra-low-noise, low-dropout linear regulator in Thin SOT-23-5 package, delivering up to 80 mA output current with 90 mV dropout at 30 mA, 40 µVRMS noise (100 Hz–100 kHz), and 1.5% output voltage accuracy at 25°C. It serves as a precision power source for RF front-ends and portable burst-mode systems.
For engineers reviewing the MC33761SNT1-050G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 1.0 V logic-compatible ON/OFF control, absence of external bypass capacitor requirement, fast 40 µs wake-up time, and thermal shutdown protection - all critical for battery-powered, noise-sensitive designs.
Technical Context
The MC33761SNT1-050G employs a PNP pass transistor architecture with integrated bandgap reference and proprietary load transient improvement circuitry that actively detects output overshoot decay and forces rapid return to regulation - eliminating deep undershoot during burst-mode load reactivation. Its control loop is optimized for stability with 1.0 µF ceramic or tantalum output capacitors across wide ESR ranges (few mΩ to 3.0 Ω).
Unlike conventional LDOs, it achieves 40 µVRMS integrated noise without an external bypass capacitor due to internal noise-suppression design, enabling simultaneous low-noise operation and sub-40 µs startup response. Static line regulation exceeds −75 dB, and ripple rejection is 70 dB at 1.0 kHz, making it suitable for powering VCOs and RF stages directly from noisy intermediate rails.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 5.0 V ±1.5% (25°C), ±3.0% (−40°C to +85°C) - ensures stable bias for analog/RF ICs across temperature. |
| Dropout Voltage | 90 mV @ 30 mA - enables operation with only 5.09 V input for full 5.0 V output, extending battery runtime. |
| Noise Performance | 40 µVRMS (100 Hz–100 kHz), 150 nV/√Hz @ 1.0 kHz - meets stringent spectral purity requirements for VCO supply rails. |
| ON/OFF Control | 900 mV logic-high threshold, 150 mV logic-low - compatible with 1.0 V I/O platforms and low-voltage microcontrollers. |
| Startup Time | 40 µs typical (200 Hz repetitive) - eliminates need for external bypass cap while maintaining ultra-fast wake-up. |
| Ripple Rejection | 70 dB @ 1.0 kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC-DC converters feeding RF subsystems. |
| Thermal Shutdown | Activates at 125°C junction temperature - provides fail-safe protection during overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
Pinout & Package
MC33761SNT1-050G is housed in a Pb-free Thin SOT-23-5 (Case 483) package with 0.95 mm max height, optimized for space-constrained portable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - Vin | Input power supply | Accepts 5.0 V to 12 V input; must be decoupled with ≥1.0 µF capacitor near pin for stability and transient response. |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | IC substrate and feedback reference node; requires low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| 3 - ON/OFF | Logic enable control | Active-high digital input; 900 mV min to enable, 150 mV max to disable; internal 250 kΩ pull-down. |
| 4 - NC | No-connect terminal | Not internally bonded; must remain unconnected or tied to GND - no electrical function or routing required. |
| 5 - Vout | Regulated output | Delivers 5.0 V ±1.5%; requires ≥1.0 µF output capacitor (ceramic/tantalum) for stability and noise filtering. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low-noise architecture | 40 µVRMS noise without external bypass capacitor - eliminates board area, cost, and reliability risk of added component. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| NCP1117ST50T3G | Fixed 5.0 V output, higher 1.2 V dropout, 42 µVRMS noise, requires 10 µF minimum output cap, no 1.0 V enable. | Designed for general-purpose industrial power rails; lacks burst-mode transient optimization and ultra-low-noise capability. | Select when cost and footprint are primary concerns and noise/transient performance are secondary. |
| MCP1703T-5002E/MB | 5.0 V output, 600 mV dropout, 30 µVRMS noise, 1.8 V min enable threshold, SOT-23-5 package. | Optimized for low-quiescent-current always-on applications; slower 100 µs startup and no load transient improvement. | Select for ultra-low-IQ applications where 1.0 V enable and burst-mode recovery are not required. |
Compared with NCP1117ST50T3G and MCP1703T-5002E/MB, the MC33761SNT1-050G uniquely combines 1.0 V logic enable, 40 µs startup, and proprietary load transient recovery - making it the only option among the three qualified for TDMA RF burst systems demanding simultaneous low noise and fast dynamic response.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for MC33761SNT1-050G?
The MC33761SNT1-050G has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 12 V on the Vin pin (Pin 1), as specified in the Maximum Ratings table of the official datasheet. Operation above this voltage may cause permanent damage. For reliable 5.0 V output, the recommended input range is Vout + 1.0 V (6.0 V) to 12 V, with dropout increasing linearly with load current.
Does MC33761SNT1-050G require an external bypass capacitor for noise reduction?
No, the MC33761SNT1-050G does not require an external bypass capacitor. Its proprietary ultra-low-noise architecture achieves 40 µVRMS (100 Hz–100 kHz) without one - a key differentiator versus conventional LDOs. This eliminates associated board area, cost, and reliability risks while enabling 40 µs startup time.
What is the ON/OFF control voltage threshold for MC33761SNT1-050G?
The MC33761SNT1-050G features a 1.0 V logic-compatible enable input: it turns ON when the ON/OFF pin (Pin 3) voltage reaches ≥900 mV and turns OFF when voltage drops ≤150 mV. The internal ON/OFF input resistance is 250 kΩ, allowing direct drive from low-power microcontrollers without external level-shifting.
Can MC33761SNT1-050G be used with ceramic output capacitors?
Yes, the MC33761SNT1-050G is fully stable with ceramic output capacitors. The datasheet explicitly states it accepts "ceramic chip capacitors as well as tantalum devices" and requires only a minimum 1.0 µF output capacitance - with no ESR constraints - thanks to its internally compensated architecture.
What protection features are integrated into MC33761SNT1-050G?
The MC33761SNT1-050G integrates thermal shutdown (activates at 125°C junction temperature), current limiting (100–500 mA typical trip range), and antisaturation protection. These features prevent catastrophic failure under overload, short-circuit, or high ambient temperature conditions - ensuring robust operation in unattended portable and medical devices.
