Product details
Overview
NCP3335AMN150R2G from onsemi is a fixed-output, 1.5 V, 500 mA ultra-high-accuracy low-dropout regulator with ±0.9% output voltage accuracy at 25 °C, 260 mV typical dropout at full load, and 31 µVRMS output noise (with 10 nF CNR). It operates from 2.6 V to 12 V input, requires only 1.0 µF output capacitance for stability, and supports MLCCs without minimum load current.
For engineers reviewing the NCP3335AMN150R2G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this device is selected for precision power rails in battery-powered imaging modules, DSP core supplies, and low-noise display biasing where thermal shutdown, reverse bias protection, and ultra-low quiescent current (9.0 mA at 500 mA load) are critical.
Technical Context
The NCP3335AMN150R2G implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout and no minimum load requirement. Its internal reference is trimmed to ±0.9% over line/load/temperature, and the dedicated NR pin allows optional 10 nF capacitor connection to reduce output noise by up to 35%.
Reverse bias protection limits reverse current to ≤10 µA when VOUT − VIN ≤ 7 V, preventing damage during hot-swap or backup-capacitor discharge events. Thermal shutdown activates at 160 °C, and current limiting protects against short-circuit faults without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5 V ±0.9% at 25 °C; ±1.5% over −40 °C to +125 °C - enables direct replacement of legacy 1.5 V LDOs without feedback resistor recalibration. |
| Max Output Current | 500 mA continuous; 860 mA peak - supports burst-mode operation in portable audio codecs and sensor hubs. |
| Dropout Voltage | 940 mV typ. at 500 mA (1.5 V version); 340 mV typ. at 500 mA for ≥2.5 V versions - dictates minimum input headroom for 1.5 V rail generation from 2.9 V Li-ion sources. |
| Ground Current | 9.0 mA at 500 mA load; 0.07 µA in shutdown - reduces standby power in always-on IoT edge nodes. |
| Output Noise | 31 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz, with 10 nF CNR) - meets noise-sensitive analog front-end requirements for high-resolution ADCs and RF synthesizers. |
| Stability | Stable with ≥1.0 µF output capacitance of any type (MLCC, tantalum, polymer); no ESR requirement - eliminates need for bulk electrolytic capacitors in space-constrained PCB layouts. |
| Input Range | 2.6 V to 12 V - accommodates single-cell Li-ion (2.9–4.2 V), USB 5 V, and industrial 9–12 V supply rails. |
Pinout & Package
Package: DFN-10 (MN suffix), 3 mm × 3 mm, 0.5 mm pitch, exposed thermal pad (EPAD) - optimized for thermal performance in compact consumer electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 | VOUT | Regulated 1.5 V output; bypassed to GND with ≥1.0 µF capacitor - primary power delivery node for downstream logic or analog circuitry. |
| 3 | SENSE | Sense input for output voltage monitoring; tied directly to Pins 1 and 2 in fixed-output configuration - enables remote sensing for improved load regulation in high-current traces. |
| 4 | GND | Power ground reference; must be connected to EPAD for optimal thermal and noise performance - forms low-impedance return path for load and internal bias currents. |
| 5, 6 | NC | No connect - left floating per datasheet; no internal connection or function - simplifies layout by eliminating routing constraints. |
| 7 | NR | Noise reduction pin; accepts optional 10 nF capacitor to GND - reduces broadband output noise by ~35%, critical for RF and precision analog stages. |
| 8 | SD | Active-low shutdown control; pulled high to VIN for normal operation - enables system-level power sequencing and deep-sleep mode activation. |
| 9, 10 | VIN | Input supply (2.6–12 V); decoupled with ≥1.0 µF capacitor - feeds internal bandgap, error amplifier, and PMOS pass element. |
| EPAD | Thermal Pad | Exposed copper pad; must be soldered to PCB ground plane - reduces θJA to 66 °C/W (1-pad board), enabling 500 mA operation without heatsink. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-high accuracy | ±0.9% initial tolerance at 25 °C ensures stable 1.5 V core voltage for FPGA I/O banks and memory interfaces without post-manufacturing calibration. |
| No minimum load required | Stable down to 0 mA output current - eliminates wasteful bleed resistors in low-power sleep states of wearables and medical sensors. |
| Reverse bias protection | Limits reverse current to ≤10 µA when VOUT > VIN (ΔV ≤ 7 V), protecting against backfeed from backup capacitors or shared rails in multi-rail systems. |
| Low-noise architecture | 31 µVRMS noise with CNR enables clean power for 16-bit SAR ADCs and low-phase-noise VCOs without additional filtering stages. |
| Wide input range | 2.6–12 V operation supports single-cell Li-ion, USB-C PD, and industrial 9 V supplies - reduces BOM count across product families. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS7A0515PDBVR | 1.5 V, 200 mA, 170 mV dropout, 30 µVRMS noise, SOT-23-5 package - lower current rating and smaller footprint but lacks NR pin and reverse bias protection. | Suitable for space-constrained, lower-current applications like MCU I/O rails; not recommended for 500 mA imaging loads or reverse-bias-prone systems. | Select if board area is critical and load current remains ≤200 mA; verify thermal derating on 2-layer PCBs. |
| MCP1703T-1502E/MB | 1.5 V, 250 mA, 600 mV dropout (typ.), 45 µVRMS noise, SOT-89-3 - higher dropout and noise, no NR pin or reverse bias protection, but offers wider −40 °C to +150 °C junction rating. | Better suited for high-ambient-temperature industrial controls where 500 mA is not required; unsuitable for noise-sensitive imaging or battery headroom-limited designs. | Choose for extended temperature operation where 250 mA suffices and cost is prioritized over noise/dropout performance. |
Compared with TPS7A0515PDBVR and MCP1703T-1502E/MB, the NCP3335AMN150R2G uniquely delivers 500 mA output with reverse bias protection and sub-35 µVRMS noise in a thermally enhanced DFN-10, making it the only option among the three qualified for high-fidelity imaging and hot-swap-capable sensor hubs.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NCP3335AMN150R2G?
The NCP3335AMN150R2G has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of +16 V, but its recommended operating input range is 2.6 V to 12 V. Operation above 12 V may degrade long-term reliability and is not characterized per datasheet specifications. For sustained 12 V operation, ensure thermal design accommodates increased power dissipation at full 500 mA load.
Does the NCP3335AMN150R2G require an external capacitor on the NR pin?
No, the NR pin on the NCP3335AMN150R2G is optional: connecting a 10 nF capacitor to GND reduces output noise from 51 µVRMS to 31 µVRMS, but the device functions fully without it. The NR pin must not be left floating - tie to GND if unused per datasheet recommendation to avoid noise coupling.
Can the NCP3335AMN150R2G be used with ceramic output capacitors less than 1.0 µF?
No - the NCP3335AMN150R2G is specified and guaranteed stable only with ≥1.0 µF output capacitance, regardless of capacitor type. Using smaller values risks oscillation or poor transient response. MLCCs meeting the 1.0 µF minimum (e.g., 1206 1.0 µF X7R) are fully supported and preferred for low ESR and size efficiency.
How does reverse bias protection work on the NCP3335AMN150R2G?
The NCP3335AMN150R2G uses an internal architecture that blocks reverse current flow when VOUT exceeds VIN by ≤7 V, limiting reverse current to ≤10 µA. This protects the IC during hot-swap events or when large output capacitors discharge into the input rail - a feature absent in standard bipolar LDOs and critical for system robustness.
What is the thermal performance of the NCP3335AMN150R2G in a standard 2-layer PCB layout?
On a 2-layer FR4 board with 2 oz copper and 35 mm² thermal pad area, the NCP3335AMN150R2G achieves θJA = 66 °C/W. At 500 mA load and 1.5 V output, power dissipation is ~355 mW (assuming 2.9 V input), resulting in ~23 °C junction-to-ambient rise - well within the −40 °C to +125 °C operating range without forced airflow.
