Product details
Overview
MC34PF3001A6EPR2 from NXP Semiconductors is a fixed-configuration Power Management IC (PMIC) optimized for i.MX 6UL processors with LPDDR2 memory, delivering three buck regulators (SW1: 2.75 A, SW2: 1.25 A, SW3: 1.5 A), seven LDOs including VCC_SD and V33, and RTC backup power via VSNVS (3.0 V, 1.0 mA). It supports I²C programmability and dynamic voltage scaling in industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +105 °C).
For engineers reviewing the MC34PF3001A6EPR2 datasheet, MC34PF3001A6EPR2 pinout, MC34PF3001A6EPR2 application, or MC34PF3001A6EPR2 equivalent, this page provides verified regulator output ranges, OTP-programmed startup sequence (SW1=1.4 V, SW2=3.3 V, SW3=1.2 V), thermal-safe QFN-48 wettable flank package details, and validated alternatives for i.MX 6UL-based industrial control and medical monitoring designs.
Technical Context
The MC34PF3001A6EPR2 implements a fixed OTP-configured power tree with pre-defined sequencing: SW1 powers the core (VDD_ARM) at 1.4 V, SW2 supplies I/O rails (e.g., NVCC_DRAM_CKE) at 3.3 V, and SW3 delivers memory interface voltage (e.g., DDR3L) at 1.2 V. Startup timing is governed by a trimmed 32 kHz clock with SEQ_CLK_SPEED = 2000 µs and PWRON level-sensitive triggering.
All three buck regulators support APS (pulse-skipping), PWM, and PFM modes; SW1 features dynamic voltage scaling with 25 mV step resolution; VCC_SD output is selectable between 1.85 V (SD_VSEL=1) and 3.3 V (SD_VSEL=0); and the VSNVS rail maintains RTC/supply monitoring during main power loss using coin-cell backup.

Pinout & Package
MC34PF3001A6EPR2 uses a 48-pin QFN (7.0 mm × 7.0 mm, wettable flank, exposed pad) with GND-connected EP for thermal dissipation. Pin functions are defined per NXP PF3001 Rev. 5.1 datasheet Section 7.2.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW1IN / SW1LX (Pins 7,8,9,10) | Buck 1 power path | SW1IN accepts input (VIN or VPWR-derived); SW1LX connects to external inductor; dual pins provide current sharing and layout robustness |
| SW2FB / SW2LX (Pins 17,19) | Buck 2 feedback & switching node | SW2FB enables precision regulation of 3.3 V output; SW2LX drives external inductor for DDR3L I/O supply |
| VCC_SD / SD_VSEL (Pins 33,2) | SD card voltage selection | VCC_SD delivers regulated 1.85 V or 3.3 V based on logic level at SD_VSEL; critical for high-speed SDIO compliance |
| VSNVS / LICELL (Pins 34,36) | RTC backup supply | VSNVS provides always-on 3.0 V rail; LICELL supports coin-cell charging and seamless switchover during main power loss |

FAQ
What is the default I²C address for MC34PF3001A6EPR2?
The default I²C address for MC34PF3001A6EPR2 is 0x08, consistent across all PF3001 variants. This 7-bit address is hard-coded in OTP and cannot be altered. Communication requires pull-up resistors (4.7 kΩ) on SDA and SCL lines referenced to VDDIO, which must be powered within 1.7 V–3.6 V and remain ≤ VIN. The MC34PF3001A6EPR2 responds only to this address unless reprogrammed via factory tools - a process not supported in field operation.
How does the OTP configuration A6 affect MC34PF3001A6EPR2's startup behavior?
The A6 OTP configuration in MC34PF3001A6EPR2 fixes SW1 to 1.4 V (core), SW2 to 3.3 V (I/O), SW3 to 1.2 V (LPDDR2), and sets all three regulators to sequence step 3 with 2000 µs clock speed. VCC_SD defaults to 3.3 V/1.85 V selection, and DVS slew rate is fixed at 6.25 mV/µs. This eliminates runtime initialization but means voltage levels and timing cannot be modified post-manufacture - MC34PF3001A6EPR2 must be selected based on exact i.MX 6UL + LPDDR2 system requirements.
Can MC34PF3001A6EPR2 support input voltages above 4.5 V?
Yes - MC34PF3001A6EPR2 supports up to 5.5 V input via the VPWR pin when an external P-channel MOSFET (e.g., FDMA908PZ) is used with the internal LDOG driver. In this mode, VIN is derived from VPWR through the external LDO, keeping internal regulator inputs ≤4.5 V. If input is ≤4.5 V, VPWR must be grounded and VIN used directly. The MC34PF3001A6EPR2 includes VPWROV detection (trip ~6.0 V) and asserts INTB if overvoltage occurs.
What is the role of the SD_VSEL pin on MC34PF3001A6EPR2?
The SD_VSEL pin on MC34PF3001A6EPR2 selects the output voltage of the VCC_SD LDO: logic high (≥0.7×VDDIO) configures 1.85 V for UHS-I SD cards, while logic low configures 3.3 V for legacy SDIO. Its input buffer is powered by VDDIO, and absence of VDDIO causes automatic fallback to high state - ensuring safe default operation. This hardware-controlled selection eliminates I²C register writes and guarantees correct SD interface voltage before host initialization.
Does MC34PF3001A6EPR2 include thermal protection?
Yes - MC34PF3001A6EPR2 integrates thermal foldback and shutdown circuitry. When die temperature exceeds ~150 °C, the device reduces switching frequency and current limits; at ~165 °C, it forces all regulators into OFF mode and asserts INTB. Recovery occurs only after temperature falls below ~140 °C and a valid PWRON signal is detected. This behavior is hard-coded in OTP and active across all operating modes - no configuration is needed to enable thermal safety in MC34PF3001A6EPR2.
