Product details
Overview
MC7824BD2TR4 from onsemi is a fixed-output +24 V, 1.0 A linear voltage regulator in D2PAK-3 (TO-263) package with internal thermal shutdown, short-circuit current limiting, and safe-area compensation. It delivers stable DC power for industrial control logic, automotive body electronics, and embedded system rails where input voltage ranges from 27 V to 38 V DC.
For engineers reviewing the MC7824BD2TR4 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include guaranteed ±2% output tolerance at 25°C, 2.0 V dropout at 1.0 A, 54 dB ripple rejection at 120 Hz, and compatibility with standard heat-sinked PCB layouts using its exposed tab (Pin 2).
Technical Context
This monolithic IC uses a bipolar pass transistor with built-in safe-area compensation to maintain reliability under high VIN–VOUT differentials. Its thermal shutdown activates at +150°C junction temperature, and short-circuit protection limits peak current to 0.2 A at 35 V input.
The device operates without external components for basic regulation but requires ≥0.33 µF input bypass capacitance when located remotely from bulk filtering. Output noise is 10 µV/V RMS (10 Hz–100 kHz), and load regulation holds within 2.1 mV over 5 mA–1.5 A at TJ = 25°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | +24 V nominal, ±2% tolerance at 25°C - ensures compatible logic supply for 24 V industrial I/O modules |
| Output Current | 1.0 A continuous - supports mid-power analog front-ends and microcontroller peripherals |
| Dropout Voltage | 2.0 V at 1.0 A - mandates minimum 26 V input for full-load 24 V output |
| Ripple Rejection | 54 dB at 120 Hz - suppresses rectified AC line noise in unregulated DC bus applications |
| Quiescent Current | 3.6 mA typical - enables low-standby-power designs without auxiliary LDOs |
| Thermal Shutdown | Activates at +150°C junction - protects against sustained overload or inadequate heatsinking |
| Short-Circuit Limit | 0.2 A at 35 V input - prevents catastrophic failure during wiring faults |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK-3 (TO-263) surface-mount package with exposed metal tab thermally and electrically connected to Pin 2 (Ground). Requires solder pad thermal relief and mechanical mounting for heatsinking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Input | Accepts 27–38 V DC input; must be bypassed with ≥0.33 µF capacitor near pin |
| 2 | Ground | Common reference for input/output; tab connection enables direct PCB heatsinking |
| 3 | Output | Delivers regulated +24 V; no output capacitor required for stability, but improves transient response |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed +24 V output | Eliminates external resistor network, reducing BOM count and layout complexity |
| Internal thermal shutdown | Enables self-protecting operation in sealed enclosures without external thermal sensors |
| Safe-area compensated pass transistor | Maintains SOA compliance across full input/output differential range up to 35 V |
| No external components required | Reduces footprint and qualification effort for cost-sensitive industrial control boards |
| Pb-free and RoHS-compliant | Meets EU environmental directives and automotive PPAP requirements |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Modules | Automotive Body Control Units |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fixed-output linear regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM7824CD2T | ±4% output tolerance (vs. ±2% for MC7824BD2TR4); higher quiescent current (4.5 mA typ) | Suitable for non-critical 24 V logic rails where tighter regulation is not required | Prefer MC7824BD2TR4 for industrial environments demanding tighter initial accuracy and lower thermal drift |
| NCV7824BD2TR4 | AEC-Q100 qualified; identical electrical specs but with automotive-specific process controls and PPAP documentation | Required for OEM automotive production; not necessary for industrial or commercial use | Select NCV7824BD2TR4 only when automotive qualification and traceability are mandatory |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for MC7824BD2TR4?
The absolute maximum input voltage for MC7824BD2TR4 is 40 V DC, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Continuous operation above 38 V violates the recommended operating condition and risks thermal runaway or premature failure due to excessive power dissipation in the pass transistor.
Does MC7824BD2TR4 require an output capacitor for stability?
No, MC7824BD2TR4 does not require an output capacitor for stability per the datasheet. However, adding a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor at the output improves transient response during step-load changes, especially in systems with long PCB traces between the regulator and load.
Can MC7824BD2TR4 be used in adjustable configurations?
Yes, MC7824BD2TR4 can be configured as an adjustable regulator using external resistors and a Zener diode per Figure 10 in the datasheet, though this modifies its fixed +24 V behavior and introduces additional tolerance and temperature drift from external components.
What thermal resistance values apply to MC7824BD2TR4 in D2PAK-3 package?
MC7824BD2TR4 in D2PAK-3 has RθJC = 5.0°C/W (junction-to-case) and RθJA = 65°C/W (junction-to-ambient) with standard JEDEC 2S2P copper pad layout. Effective thermal performance depends on PCB copper area, via count, and heatsink attachment to the exposed tab (Pin 2).
Is MC7824BD2TR4 pin-compatible with other 78xx-series regulators in D2PAK-3?
Yes, MC7824BD2TR4 shares identical D2PAK-3 pinout (Input-Ground-Output) and mechanical footprint with all onsemi 78xx-series D2T-suffix parts, enabling board-level substitution across output voltages when thermal and electrical margins permit.
