Product details
Overview
MPQ2013AGJE-33-AEC1C672-Z from Monolithic Power Systems is a 40V-input, 150mA AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified linear regulator in QFN-8 (3mm×3mm) package with fixed 3.3V output, 3.3µA quiescent current, 620mV dropout at full load, and ±2% output accuracy. It powers ultra-low-power microcontrollers and automotive body electronics where wide input range and thermal robustness are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MPQ2013AGJE-33-AEC1C672-Z datasheet, MPQ2013AGJE-33-AEC1C672-Z pinout, MPQ2013AGJE-33-AEC1C672-Z application, or MPQ2013AGJE-33-AEC1C672-Z equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, 3.3µA IQ under light load, 150mA continuous output capability, thermal shutdown at 150°C, and compatibility with low-ESR ceramic capacitors ≥0.47μF.
Technical Context
The MPQ2013AGJE-33-AEC1C672-Z uses a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling low dropout and reverse-voltage immunity via external diode protection. Its internal feedback reference is trimmed to 1.215V, supporting precise 3.3V regulation with ±2% tolerance over –40°C to +125°C ambient.
Control logic integrates EN pin threshold hysteresis (1.26V falling / 1.48V rising), current limiting (160–400mA), and thermal shutdown with 20°C hysteresis. The device operates across 2.5V–40V input while maintaining stable regulation down to 100μA load without external compensation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 40V - supports direct connection to 12V/24V automotive batteries and industrial rails without pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±2% - meets I/O voltage requirements for CAN transceivers, MCU cores, and sensor interfaces. |
| Quiescent Current | 3.3µA typical - enables >10-year battery life in always-on vehicle modules (e.g., door controllers, seat position sensors). |
| Dropout Voltage | 620mV at 150mA - sustains regulation with VIN as low as 3.92V, critical during cold-crank conditions. |
| Output Current | 150mA continuous - sufficient for powering dual-core MCUs, EEPROMs, and analog front-ends simultaneously. |
| Junction Temp Range | –40°C to +150°C - validated for under-hood placement per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (TJ ≤ +150°C). |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C activation with 20°C hysteresis - prevents latch-up during sustained overload or poor PCB heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
MPQ2013AGJE-33-AEC1C672-Z is housed in a thermally enhanced QFN-8 (3mm × 3mm, 0.65mm pitch) package with exposed thermal pad. Pin 1 is marked by a dot or chamfered corner; the exposed pad must be soldered to a dedicated ground plane for optimal thermal performance (θJA = 48°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN) | Main power input | Accepts 2.5V–40V supply; requires ≥1µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| 2 (EN) | Enable control input | Logic-high (>1.48V) enables regulation; logic-low (<1.26V) reduces IQ to <3µA and disables output. |
| 3, 6, 7 (NC) | No-connect terminals | May be left floating or tied to GND to improve thermal conduction from die to PCB. |
| 4 (FB) | Feedback reference node | Internally biased to 1.215V; left unconnected for fixed 3.3V operation. |
| 5 (GND) | Analog/digital ground | Must be connected to same ground plane as exposed thermal pad; forms return path for bias and load currents. |
| 8 (OUT) | Regulated output | Delivers stable 3.3V; requires ≥0.47µF ceramic capacitor directly at pin for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 3.3µA typical - minimizes standby power loss in always-on automotive ECUs. |
| Wide input voltage range | 2.5V to 40V - eliminates need for upstream buck converter in 12V/24V systems. |
| Low-dropout operation | 620mV @ 150mA - maintains regulation during engine cranking (VIN dips to ~6V). |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for TJ = –40°C to +150°C - certified for powertrain-adjacent and under-hood applications. |
| Integrated protection | Current limit + thermal shutdown - prevents damage during short-circuit or thermal overload without external circuitry. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar linear regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS7B6733QPWPRQ1 | Higher IQ (12µA), lower max input (40V), same 3.3V output and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 rating. | Less suitable for multi-year battery backup; better for higher-current loads (200mA). | Select if higher output current or tighter load regulation (0.005%/mA) is required over ultra-low IQ. |
| NCP163AMX330TBG | Lower IQ (1.5µA), narrower input (2.2V–5.5V), no AEC-Q100 qualification, QFN-6 package. | Restricted to low-voltage battery-only systems; not rated for automotive temperature or stress testing. | Select only for non-automotive portable equipment where input never exceeds 5.5V and qualification is unnecessary. |
Compared with TPS7B6733QPWPRQ1 and NCP163AMX330TBG, MPQ2013AGJE-33-AEC1C672-Z uniquely balances AEC-Q100 Grade 1 compliance, 3.3µA IQ, and 40V input capability-making it the only choice for high-reliability 12V/24V automotive modules requiring multi-year battery hold-up.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable input voltage for MPQ2013AGJE-33-AEC1C672-Z?
The absolute maximum input voltage is +42V, but the recommended operating range is 2.5V to 40V. Operation above 40V risks permanent damage even for brief transients; external clamping (e.g., TVS diode) is advised for load-dump protection in automotive 24V systems.
Can MPQ2013AGJE-33-AEC1C672-Z operate with a 0.47μF output capacitor?
Yes - the device is stable with ceramic output capacitors as low as 0.47μF (X5R/X7R dielectric). Larger values (e.g., 4.7μF) improve load transient response and reduce output noise, especially in ADC-sensitive applications.
Is the EN pin internally pulled up?
No - the EN pin has no internal pull-up. It must be actively driven HIGH (≥1.48V) to enable regulation or tied directly to IN for automatic startup. Leaving EN floating may cause erratic enable/disable behavior due to noise coupling.
How does thermal shutdown behave during sustained overload?
When junction temperature reaches 150°C, the IC shuts down completely (IQ drops to <3µA). After cooling by ≥20°C (hysteresis), it automatically restarts. This cycle repeats until fault condition clears - preventing thermal runaway without external intervention.
Does MPQ2013AGJE-33-AEC1C672-Z require an input capacitor?
Yes - a minimum 1μF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor must be placed between IN and GND, located within 3mm of the pin. This suppresses high-frequency noise and stabilizes regulation during line transients such as ignition pulses.
What is the significance of the "C672" suffix in the part number?
"C672" is Monolithic Power Systems' internal lot-specific traceability code indicating wafer fab location, process revision, and assembly batch. It is not a functional variant - all electrical and thermal specifications match the base MPQ2013AGQ-33-AEC1 designation.
Can this regulator be used in reverse-voltage scenarios?
No - the internal PMOS pass transistor's body diode conducts from OUT to IN if VOUT > VIN. External reverse-voltage protection (e.g., Schottky diode in series with IN) is mandatory in systems with backup batteries or hot-swap conditions.
