Product details
Overview
NCP177AMX110TCG from onsemi is a CMOS low-dropout linear voltage regulator delivering 500 mA output current with fixed 1.10 V output, 1.6 V to 5.5 V input range, and 200 mV typical dropout at 500 mA (for 1.8 V variant; 1.10 V variant specified at 295 mV). It features ±0.8% output accuracy, 60 µA quiescent current, and integrated thermal shutdown and over-current protection. It powers noise-sensitive analog circuitry in portable battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the NCP177AMX110TCG datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 1.10 V fixed output, XDFN4 1 mm × 1 mm package, active discharge capability (A-version), fast transient response, and compatibility with 1 µF ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The NCP177AMX110TCG uses a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling low dropout and inherent reverse-current blocking. Its adaptive ground current design maintains 60 µA quiescent current at no load while scaling with output current.
It integrates an enable input (active-high, 1.0 V threshold), internal soft-start, and output discharge transistor (60 Ω typical) activated when EN = 0 V - a distinguishing feature of the "A" variant confirmed for this part number per ordering table and block diagram.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.10 V ±0.8% (guaranteed over −40°C to +85°C) |
| Max Output Current | 500 mA continuous; internally limited to 750 mA typ. during overload |
| Dropout Voltage | 295 mV typ. at 500 mA (for VOUT = 1.10 V, per Electrical Characteristics table) |
| Quiescent Current | 60 µA typ. at IOUT = 0 mA; enables ultra-low-power standby operation |
| PSRR | 75 dB at 1 kHz, supporting clean power for RF/analog circuits |
| Thermal Shutdown | 175°C activation with 20°C hysteresis, ensuring robust fault recovery |
| Stability | Guaranteed with ≥1 µF X7R/X5R ceramic output capacitor (no ESR requirement) |
Pinout & Package
Package: XDFN4 (Case 711AJ), 1.0 mm × 1.0 mm × 0.4 mm, Pb-free, with exposed thermal pad (EPAD) requiring connection to PCB ground plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - OUT | Regulated output voltage node | Delivers stable 1.10 V; connects directly to load and 1 µF ceramic capacitor |
| 2 - GND | Power supply ground reference | Return path for load, IC bias, and thermal dissipation via EPAD tie |
| 3 - EN | Enable control input (active-high) | Drives ON/OFF state; <0.4 V disables regulator and activates output discharge (A-version) |
| 4 - IN | Input voltage supply node | Accepts 1.6–5.5 V; requires local 1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor |
| EPAD | Exposed thermal pad | Must be soldered to solid PCB ground plane to achieve θJA = 223°C/W and sustain full 500 mA load |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Active output discharge | 60 Ω typical discharge path to GND when disabled - prevents floating voltage on powered-down rails |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 60 µA typ. at zero load enables >1-year battery life in always-on IoT sensors |
| Fast transient response | Stable 1.10 V output under 1 mA ↔ 500 mA load steps without external compensation |
| High PSRR & low noise | 75 dB PSRR @ 1 kHz and 54 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz) support precision ADCs and RF front-ends |
| Robust protection suite | Integrated thermal shutdown (175°C), over-current limit (750 mA typ.), and short-circuit protection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS7A0511PYKAR | 1.1 V fixed, 200 mA max, 17 µA IQ, no output discharge | Limited to lower current; lacks active discharge for rail sequencing | Choose for ultra-low-IQ sub-200 mA loads where discharge is unnecessary |
| MCP1804T-1102I/OT | 1.1 V fixed, 150 mA max, 3 µA IQ, no discharge, SOT-23-5 | Lower current rating and no discharge; smaller IQ but incompatible pinout | Use only in space-constrained, low-current designs accepting manual discharge or higher dropout |
Compared with TPS7A0511PYKAR and MCP1804T-1102I/OT, the NCP177AMX110TCG uniquely combines 500 mA drive, 1.10 V output, and integrated active discharge in a 1 mm² XDFN4 package - making it optimal for high-density, fast-sequencing portable systems.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the NCP177AMX110TCG over temperature?
The NCP177AMX110TCG guarantees ±0.8% output voltage accuracy at +25°C and ±1.0% over the full operating range of −40°C to +85°C, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Output Voltage" for VOUT_NOM < 1.8 V. This tight tolerance ensures reliable operation of precision analog circuitry without external trimming.
Does the NCP177AMX110TCG include output discharge functionality?
Yes, the NCP177AMX110TCG is the "A" version and includes active output discharge: when the EN pin is driven low, an internal 60 Ω (typ.) transistor pulls the OUT pin to GND. This behavior is explicitly confirmed in the Ordering Information table, Pin Function Description, and Internal Block Diagram for NCP177A variants.
What is the minimum input voltage required for the NCP177AMX110TCG to regulate at 1.10 V?
The NCP177AMX110TCG requires a minimum input voltage of 1.6 V, per its Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics. To maintain regulation at full 500 mA load, VIN must exceed VOUT + VDO = 1.10 V + 0.295 V = 1.395 V - well within the 1.6 V minimum, allowing operation down to ~1.4 V input in practice.
Can the NCP177AMX110TCG operate with a 0.47 µF output capacitor?
No - the NCP177AMX110TCG is specified and guaranteed stable only with ≥1.0 µF ceramic output capacitance (X7R/X5R). The datasheet states "minimum effective capacitance of 0.8 µF", but recommends 1.0 µF for best dynamic performance; using 0.47 µF risks instability, poor load transient response, and potential oscillation.
What thermal derating applies to the NCP177AMX110TCG at 60°C ambient?
At TA = 60°C, the maximum allowable power dissipation for the NCP177AMX110TCG is PDMAX = (125°C − 60°C) / 223°C/W ≈ 0.29 W. For a 1.10 V output at 500 mA, power dissipation is (VIN − 1.10 V) × 0.5 A + IGND × VIN; with VIN = 2.5 V, PD ≈ 0.7 W - exceeding the limit. Thus, either reduce load current, lower VIN, or improve PCB copper area to reduce θJA.
