Product details
Overview
MPQ2013AGJE-33-C672-Z from Monolithic Power Systems is a 40V-input, 150mA AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified low-quiescent-current linear regulator in QFN-6 (2mm×2mm) package, delivering fixed 3.3V output with ±4% accuracy at −40°C to +150°C junction temperature. It features 3.3µA quiescent current, 620mV dropout at 150mA, and stable operation with ≥0.47µF ceramic output capacitor - deployed in automotive body control modules requiring ultra-low standby power.
For engineers reviewing the MPQ2013AGJE-33-C672-Z datasheet, MPQ2013AGJE-33-C672-Z pinout, MPQ2013AGJE-33-C672-Z application, or MPQ2013AGJE-33-C672-Z equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal shutdown behavior, EN threshold validation, FB voltage tolerance, and AEC-Q100 qualification context for automotive-grade design-in.
Technical Context
The MPQ2013AGJE-33-C672-Z uses a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling low dropout and reverse-voltage robustness when paired with external input diode protection. Its internal 1.215V reference feeds a precision error amplifier that regulates output via feedback loop stability optimized for ceramic capacitors ≥0.47µF.
EN pin logic control (1.26V falling threshold, 1.48V rising threshold) enables system-level power sequencing, while thermal shutdown at 150°C with 20°C hysteresis and current limiting at 160–400mA provide fault resilience in high-temperature under-hood environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 40V - supports 12V/24V automotive batteries including cold-crank transients up to 42V absolute max. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±4% - calibrated for QFN-6 package; meets I/O rail requirements of CAN/LIN transceivers and microcontrollers. |
| Quiescent Current | 3.3µA typical - enables >10-year battery life in always-on telematics modules with <10µA system sleep current. |
| Dropout Voltage | 620mV at 150mA - sustains regulation down to VIN = 3.92V, critical for start-stop engine operation. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C junction activation - protects against solder reflow damage and sustained overloads without latch-off. |
| Load Current Limit | 160–400mA - provides short-circuit foldback while maintaining 150mA continuous rating for sensor clusters. |
| PSRR @ 100Hz | 58dB - suppresses alternator ripple and switching noise upstream of ADCs and RF receivers. |
Pinout & Package
MPQ2013AGJE-33-C672-Z is housed in a thermally enhanced QFN-6 (2mm×2mm) package with exposed thermal pad. Pin 1 is marked by a dot or beveled corner; the exposed pad must be soldered to a dedicated ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN) | Main input supply connection | Accepts 2.5–40V; requires ≥1µF X5R/X7R ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| 2 (EN) | Enable control input | Logic HIGH (>1.48V) enables regulation; LOW (<1.26V) reduces supply current to <3µA shutdown mode. |
| 3 (GND) | Power ground reference | Must connect to same ground plane as exposed thermal pad; forms return path for load and bias currents. |
| 4 (FB) | Feedback reference node | Floating for fixed 3.3V version; internally tied to divider - no external components required. |
| 5 (OUT) | Regulated output terminal | Delivers 3.3V; stable with ≥0.47µF ceramic capacitor; trace inductance must be minimized for transient response. |
| 6 (NC) | No-connect terminal | May be left open or grounded to improve thermal conduction; not electrically bonded to die. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for −40°C to +125°C ambient operation with full parametric compliance across temperature and lifetime stress tests. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 3.3µA typ. - enables direct connection to vehicle battery without auxiliary LDO or switcher for always-on domains. |
| Low-value ceramic capacitor support | Stable with ≥0.47µF X5R/X7R output cap - eliminates bulk tantalum, reduces BOM cost and board area. |
| Integrated thermal and current protection | Auto-recovery shutdown at 150°C + 20°C hysteresis and foldback current limit prevent latch-up during overload. |
| Wide input range with UVLO immunity | Operates down to 2.5V VIN - survives deep discharge of 12V lead-acid batteries and supports dual-battery architectures. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-IQ linear regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPQ2013AGG-33-AEC1 | Same QFN-6 package, identical 3.3V ±4% output, but lacks C672 lot-code traceability and Z tape-and-reel suffix. | Qualified for same AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive use, but not configured for automated SMT line traceability. | Select MPQ2013AGJE-33-C672-Z when full production lot traceability and tape-and-reel delivery are required. |
| NCP1117ST33T3G | TO-220/SOT-223 package, 1A rating, 6mA IQ, ±2% accuracy - higher power, higher quiescent current, no AEC-Q100 cert. | Suitable for industrial non-automotive applications where thermal mass offsets higher IQ, but fails automotive qualification. | Choose only for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where 3.3µA IQ and AEC-Q100 are not mandatory. |
Compared with MPQ2013AGG-33-AEC1, the -C672-Z variant adds manufacturing traceability and packaging compliance; versus NCP1117ST33T3G, it trades current capacity for automotive qualification and 99.7% lower quiescent current - essential for battery longevity in safety-critical systems.

FAQ
What is the exact EN pin threshold voltage for MPQ2013AGJE-33-C672-Z?
The EN pin has a guaranteed falling threshold of 1.10V to 1.42V and rising threshold of 1.32V to 1.64V at −40°C to +125°C. At room temperature, typical values are 1.26V (fall) and 1.48V (rise), enabling clean power sequencing with standard 3.3V GPIOs without external level-shifting.
Can MPQ2013AGJE-33-C672-Z operate with input voltage below 2.5V?
No - the absolute minimum input voltage is 2.5V per datasheet specifications. Below this, regulation fails and output collapses. This limit ensures proper gate drive for the internal PMOS pass device and reference circuit stability across temperature.
Is external reverse-voltage protection required for this part?
Yes - due to the internal PMOS body diode, reverse current flows from OUT to IN if VOUT > VIN. In backup-battery or dual-supply configurations, an external Schottky diode on the IN rail is mandatory to prevent destructive reverse conduction.
What is the maximum allowable PCB copper area for the exposed thermal pad?
The exposed pad (Pin 3) must connect to a solid ground plane covering ≥25 mm² with ≥4 thermal vias (0.3mm diameter, spaced ≤1mm apart) to achieve θJA = 80°C/W. Larger copper areas improve thermal margin but do not reduce θJA below datasheet-specified limits.
Does MPQ2013AGJE-33-C672-Z support adjustable output voltage?
No - this specific variant is fixed 3.3V output only. Adjustable versions (e.g., MPQ2013AGJE-AEC1) require FB pin connection to external resistor divider; the -33 suffix denotes factory-trimmed 3.3V output with FB pin internally terminated.
How does thermal shutdown behave during sustained overload?
At 150°C junction temperature, the device shuts down and remains off until die cools by ≥20°C (hysteresis). It then auto-restarts - this cycle repeats continuously during sustained overload, preventing permanent damage but limiting average output power to safe thermal limits.
What is the recommended input capacitor for automotive ESD and load dump immunity?
A 2.2µF X7R ceramic capacitor placed within 2mm of the IN pin is minimum; for ISO 7637-2 Load Dump immunity, add a 47µF aluminum polymer capacitor in parallel to absorb 12V/35V transients without exceeding 42V absolute maximum rating.
