Product details
Overview
NCP1592PAR2G from onsemi is a 6 A synchronous buck PWM switcher with integrated high-side and low-side 30 mΩ MOSFETs, designed for space-constrained, high-efficiency point-of-load regulation. It operates from 3 V to 6 V input, delivers adjustable output down to 0.891 V with ±1.0% accuracy, and supports fixed (350/550 kHz) or adjustable (280–700 kHz) switching frequency - used in FPGA, DSP, and microprocessor power rails.
For engineers reviewing the NCP1592PAR2G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its thermally enhanced TSSOP-28 EP package, integrated FETs eliminating external switches, programmable soft-start, power-good monitoring, and robust current-limit/thermal shutdown protection.
Technical Context
The NCP1592PAR2G implements adaptive dead-time control and a high-bandwidth error amplifier (90–110 dB open-loop gain, 3–5 MHz unity-gain bandwidth) to maintain tight regulation under fast load transients. Its PWM comparator features 70–85 ns propagation delay and leading-edge blanking to suppress noise-induced false triggering.
Internal UVLO (2.95 V start / 2.8 V stop with 160 mV hysteresis), thermal shutdown (135–165 °C trip), and peak-current limiting (7.2–12 A depending on VIN) provide layered system-level protection. The device supports both internal soft-start (3.35 ms typical) and external capacitor-programmable startup timing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|

| Input Voltage Range | 3 V to 6 V - compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V intermediate bus architectures |
| Reference Voltage | 0.891 V ±1.0% - enables precise output setting down to sub-1 V with minimal drift |
| Switching Frequency | 280–700 kHz adjustable via RT resistor - allows optimization of size vs. efficiency trade-offs |
| High-Side RDS(on) | 30 mΩ @ 3 V VIN - ensures low conduction loss at typical low-input operation |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150 °C nominal trip - protects against sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design |

Pinout & Package
Package: TSSOP-28 EP (Case 948BG), thermally enhanced with exposed PowerPAD soldered to AGND plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AGND (Pin 1) | Analog ground reference | Return path for compensation network, VBIAS cap, RT resistor, SYNC, and PowerPAD - must be isolated from PGND except at single-point connection |
| VSENSE (Pin 2) | Error amplifier inverting input | Connects to output divider - senses regulated voltage with 0.891 V reference; CMVR = 0 to VBIAS |
| COMP (Pin 3) | Error amplifier output | Drives external Type 2/3 compensation network; slew rate ±2.07–4.5 V/s |
| PWRGD (Pin 4) | Open-drain power-good signal | Asserts high when VSENSE ≥ 0.9 × Vref; sinks ≤225 mV @ 2.5 mA - used for sequencing and fault indication |
| BOOT (Pin 5) | Bootstrap gate drive supply | Requires 0.022–0.1 μF ceramic cap to PH - generates floating bias for high-side MOSFET gate |
| PH (Pins 6–14) | Phase node | Common drain connection of internal HS/LS FETs - connects directly to output inductor; handles full switching current |
| PGND (Pins 15–19) | Power ground return | High-current return for LS FET and input/output capacitors - requires large copper pour and multiple vias |
| VIN (Pins 20–24) | Main power input | Supplies HS/LS FETs and internal bias regulator - bypass with ≥10 μF X5R/X7R ceramic caps per pin |
| VBIAS (Pin 25) | Bias regulator output | 2.7–2.9 V regulated supply for internal circuits; requires 0.1–1.0 μF low-ESR ceramic cap to AGND |
| SS/ENA (Pin 26) | Soft-start/enable control | Dual-function: logic-enable threshold 0.82–1.40 V; external cap sets startup time (≈0.7 V / 5 μA × C) |
| SYNC (Pin 27) | Frequency synchronization | Accepts external clock (330–700 kHz); or selects internal 350/550 kHz via logic level |
| RT (Pin 28) | Frequency-setting resistor | Resistor to AGND sets switching frequency: f ≈ 100 kΩ / R (kHz) - e.g., 100 kΩ → 500 kHz |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 30 mΩ HS/LS MOSFETs | Eliminates need for external power switches, reducing BOM count and layout complexity |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MP2315DJ-LF-Z | 4 A rated, 3.3–18 V input, fixed 500 kHz, no SYNC or RT pin | Lacks frequency programming and synchronization; lower current rating | Select when board space is critical and 4 A suffices; not suitable for 6 A or synchronized multi-rail systems |
| TPS54620RGYT | 6 A rated, 4.5–17 V input, 350–650 kHz adjustable, integrated boot diode | Higher minimum input voltage; includes bootstrap diode but lacks PWRGD output | Choose for higher VIN systems (>4.5 V); omit if power-good sequencing is required |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for NCP1592PAR2G to start up?
The NCP1592PAR2G incorporates an under-voltage lockout (UVLO) circuit with a nominal start threshold of 2.95 V. Startup begins only when VIN exceeds this value; operation continues until VIN falls below 2.8 V. This ensures reliable initialization and prevents erratic behavior during brown-out conditions. The NCP1592PAR2G will not switch or regulate below 2.95 V.
How is the output voltage set on the NCP1592PAR2G?
The NCP1592PAR2G uses an internal 0.891 V reference voltage. Output voltage is set externally via a resistor divider from VOUT to AGND, connected to the VSENSE pin (Pin 2). For example, a 9.76 kΩ top resistor and 10 kΩ bottom resistor yields 3.3 V output. The reference accuracy is ±1.0%, ensuring tight regulation across temperature and load for the NCP1592PAR2G.
Can the NCP1592PAR2G be synchronized to an external clock?
Yes, the NCP1592PAR2G supports external synchronization via the SYNC pin (Pin 27) over a 330–700 kHz range. To synchronize, apply a clean square wave to SYNC and connect an RT resistor to AGND set for ~80% of the external frequency. The NCP1592PAR2G will phase-lock to the external signal, enabling noise-sensitive or multi-rail coordinated switching.
What thermal design guidelines apply to the NCP1592PAR2G?
The NCP1592PAR2G uses a TSSOP-28 EP package with an exposed PowerPAD requiring soldering to a dedicated AGND copper plane. Recommended thermal vias: eight 0.013″ vias under the pad plus four 0.018″ vias elsewhere. A 3″ × 3″ 1 oz copper area is advised for full 6 A operation at 85 °C ambient. Thermal resistance junction-to-air is 18.2 °C/W with proper layout - critical for reliability of the NCP1592PAR2G.
Does the NCP1592PAR2G support pre-biased output startup?
No - the NCP1592PAR2G does not support true pre-biased startup. During soft-start, the internal reference ramps from 0 V to 0.891 V; if the output is already biased above this level, the control loop may discharge the output capacitor through the internal MOSFETs, risking device damage. External circuitry or sequencing must ensure VOUT ≈ 0 V at startup for safe operation of the NCP1592PAR2G.
