Product details
Overview
NCP4620HSQ12T1G from onsemi is a 150 mA, 1.2 V fixed-output CMOS low-dropout linear regulator in SC-70-5 package, operating from 2.6 V to 10 V input, with ±1.0% output voltage accuracy, 165 mV dropout at 100 mA (3.3 V version), and chip enable functionality for power management in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the NCP4620HSQ12T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 1.2 V fixed output, SC-70-5 footprint compatibility, thermal shutdown (165°C), current fold-back protection, and stable operation with ceramic capacitors - critical for battery-powered imaging and communication subsystems.
Technical Context
The NCP4620HSQ12T1G implements a CMOS-based LDO architecture with an internal N-channel pass transistor, enabling low quiescent current (23 µA) and high PSRR (70 dB at 1 kHz). Its CE pin operates with active-high logic (VCEH = 1.7 V min) and internal pull-down current (0.3 µA), supporting controlled power sequencing.
Thermal regulation is achieved via a dedicated shutdown circuit triggering at 165°C junction temperature and releasing at 110°C, while output stability requires only 0.47 µF ceramic capacitors on both input and output - eliminating need for tantalum or electrolytic types.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.2 V ±1.0% over −40°C to +85°C - ensures precise core voltage for low-power microcontrollers and sensors. |
| Max Output Current | 150 mA continuous - sufficient for powering single-core MCUs, camera modules, or RF transceivers in compact devices. |
| Dropout Voltage | 400 mV at 150 mA (for 1.2 V output) - enables operation from 2-cell Li-ion (nominal 7.4 V, sag to ~6 V) with margin. |
| Quiescent Current | 23 µA typical - extends battery life in always-on monitoring circuits without compromising startup time. |
| PSRR | 70 dB at 1 kHz - suppresses switching noise from DC-DC converters feeding the LDO input rail. |
| Operating Input Range | 2.6 V to 10 V - supports direct connection to USB (5 V), 2S Li-ion (up to 8.4 V), or industrial 9 V supplies. |
| Thermal Shutdown | Triggers at 165°C junction temperature - protects against sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SC-70-5 (Case 419A−02), 1.80 × 1.15 × 0.80 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, Pb-free, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (SC-70) | VIN | Main input supply pin - connect to bulk decoupling capacitor (≥1 µF ceramic) within 2 mm of pin. |
| 2 (SC-70) | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - tie directly to low-impedance ground plane under IC footprint. |
| 3 (SC-70) | CE | Active-high chip enable - drive ≥1.7 V to enable regulator; float or tie to VIN if always-on operation required. |
| 4 (SC-70) | NC | No connection - leave unconnected; not internally bonded or electrically used. |
| 5 (SC-70) | VOUT | Regulated 1.2 V output - place 0.47 µF ceramic capacitor ≤3 mm from pin to ensure stability and transient response. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low Dropout Operation | 400 mV at full 150 mA load for 1.2 V output - enables higher efficiency than standard linear regulators when input voltage is close to output. |
| Ceramic Capacitor Stability | Stable with ≥0.47 µF X5R/X7R ceramic output cap - eliminates ESR requirements and reduces BOM cost vs. tantalum solutions. |
| Chip Enable Control | Active-high CE with 1.7 V threshold and 0.3 µA pull-down - simplifies power sequencing in multi-rail systems without external logic. |
| Thermal & Current Protection | Integrated thermal shutdown (165°C) and current fold-back - prevents damage during short-circuit or overheating without external components. |
| High PSRR | 70 dB at 1 kHz - maintains clean 1.2 V supply for noise-sensitive analog blocks (e.g., ADC references, PLLs) fed from noisy switchers. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-1202E/TT | 150 mA, 1.2 V fixed, SOT-23-3, no CE pin, 6 µA IQ, 170 mV dropout (at 100 mA) | Lacks enable control and thermal shutdown; limited to always-on, low-power roles | Choose when minimal IQ and simple layout outweigh need for power sequencing or fault protection. |
| TLC7701QDBVRQ1 | 150 mA, 1.2 V fixed, SOT-23-5, CE pin, 15 µA IQ, 300 mV dropout (at 150 mA), automotive-grade (AEC-Q100) | Higher grade qualification; slightly lower dropout but reduced PSRR (60 dB @ 1 kHz) | Prefer for automotive infotainment or ADAS modules requiring AEC-Q100 compliance and tighter thermal specs. |
Compared with MCP1700T-1202E/TT, NCP4620HSQ12T1G adds chip enable and thermal shutdown at modest IQ penalty; versus TLC7701QDBVRQ1, it trades AEC-Q100 qualification for higher PSRR and broader industrial temperature support (−40°C to +85°C).

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the NCP4620HSQ12T1G over temperature?
The NCP4620HSQ12T1G maintains ±1.0% output voltage accuracy at +25°C, and ±2.3% over the full −40°C to +85°C operating range. This specification is verified per the datasheet's ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS table, ensuring predictable performance in consumer and industrial environments without external trimming.
Does the NCP4620HSQ12T1G require an external capacitor on the CE pin?
No, the NCP4620HSQ12T1G does not require an external capacitor on the CE pin. Its CE input has an internal pull-down current source (0.3 µA), and the pin is compatible with standard CMOS logic levels. For noise immunity in high-EMI environments, a 100 pF capacitor to ground may be added, but it is not specified or required in the datasheet.
Can the NCP4620HSQ12T1G operate with a 2.5 V input supply?
Yes, the NCP4620HSQ12T1G supports input voltages down to 2.6 V minimum per datasheet Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics. At 2.5 V input, the device will not regulate - it requires ≥2.6 V to maintain 1.2 V output. For 2.5 V input applications, consider a lower-VIN LDO such as the AP2112K-1.2.
Is the NC pin on the NCP4620HSQ12T1G internally connected?
No, the NC (pin 4) on the NCP4620HSQ12T1G is not internally connected - it is a no-connect terminal per the Pin Function Description table in the datasheet. It must remain unconnected on the PCB; routing traces or vias to this pin may cause mechanical stress or unintended coupling.
What is the maximum power dissipation of the NCP4620HSQ12T1G in SC-70 package?
The NCP4620HSQ12T1G in SC-70 package has a maximum power dissipation of 380 mW at +25°C ambient, based on its thermal resistance (RJA = 263°C/W) and maximum junction temperature (TJ = +150°C). Derating is required above +25°C ambient - e.g., ~280 mW at +50°C ambient - per the Thermal Characteristics section.
