Product details
Overview
NCP4623HSN120T1G from onsemi is a 12.0 V fixed-output, CMOS low-dropout linear voltage regulator with 150 mA output current capability, 24 V maximum input voltage, ±2.0% output voltage accuracy, and chip enable (CE) control. It delivers stable power to noise-sensitive analog circuitry in space-constrained portable systems requiring low quiescent current and ceramic capacitor compatibility.
For engineers reviewing the NCP4623HSN120T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 12 V output (0.30–0.55 V), thermal shutdown (150°C), standby current (0.1 µA typ.), PSRR (≥35 dB at 1 kHz), and XDFN6 1.6×1.6 mm package suitability for high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The NCP4623HSN120T1G implements a CMOS-based LDO architecture with fold-back current limiting, thermal shutdown, and peak/short-circuit protection. Its CE pin enables active-high logic control with 2.1 V minimum threshold, allowing precise system-level power sequencing.
Designed for wide-input operation (2 V to 24 V), it maintains regulation across automotive battery transients and industrial supply variations. Output stability is guaranteed with ≥0.1 µF ceramic capacitors, eliminating need for tantalum or electrolytic types.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 12.0 V ±2.0% - ensures consistent biasing for 12 V analog sensors or interface ICs without external feedback. |
| Max Input Voltage | 24 V - supports direct connection to 24 V industrial rails or automotive battery inputs with transient margin. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.30–0.55 V @ 20 mA - enables regulation down to VIN = 12.3 V, critical for brownout resilience in 12 V systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 5 µA typ. - minimizes standby power loss in always-on subsystems like real-time clocks or wake-up monitors. |
| Standby Current | 0.1 µA typ. @ VCE = 0 V - reduces system sleep-mode consumption to sub-µW levels when disabled. |
| PSRR | ≥35 dB @ 1 kHz - suppresses ripple from noisy switching supplies feeding the LDO input. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C activation / 125°C release - provides self-resetting overtemperature protection without latch-up. |
Pinout & Package
Package: XDFN6 1.6 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.4 mm (Case 711AC), Pb-free, exposed thermal pad connected to GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VOUT (Pin 3) | Regulated output | Delivers stable 12.0 V to load; requires 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin for stability. |
| GND (Pin 6) | Ground reference | Common return path for input/output currents; connects to exposed thermal pad for enhanced heat dissipation. |
| CE (Pin 4) | Chip enable input | Active-high control: drives output ON when ≥2.1 V; pulls to GND to achieve 0.1 µA standby mode. |
| VIN (Pin 1) | Input supply | Accepts 2–24 V DC; requires 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed within 2 mm of pin. |
| NC (Pin 5) | No connection | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout best practice-no functional impact. |
| NC (Pin 2) | No connection | Unused terminal; no electrical function; avoid routing signals or traces to this pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide input range (2–24 V) | Enables single-regulator support across multiple supply domains-from Li-ion battery packs to 24 V industrial buses. |
| Ceramic capacitor stability | Guaranteed stable with ≥0.1 µF X7R/X5R ceramics, reducing BOM cost and board area vs. tantalum alternatives. |
| Fold-back current protection | Prevents thermal runaway during sustained overload by reducing both output voltage and current proportionally. |
| Ultra-low standby current | 0.1 µA typical enables >10-year battery life in coin-cell-powered IoT endpoints with periodic wake-up cycles. |
| Thermal shutdown with hysteresis | 150°C trip / 125°C recovery prevents oscillation during thermal stress, ensuring reliable fault recovery without external reset logic. |
Applications
| Battery-Powered Sensors | Industrial Control I/O Modules |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1703T-1202E/MB | 12 V fixed, 250 mA output, 6 µA quiescent current, SOT-23-5 package | Higher output current but larger dropout (0.6 V min); lacks thermal hysteresis (latches off on overtemp) | Choose for higher load current needs where thermal cycling reliability is less critical. |
| Torex XC6210B122MR-G | 12 V fixed, 150 mA, 1 µA standby, SOT-25 package, 0.35 V dropout | Lower standby current but only 125°C thermal shutdown (no hysteresis); not AEC-Q100 qualified | Prefer for ultra-low-power battery systems where automotive qualification is unnecessary. |
Compared with MCP1703T-1202E/MB and XC6210B122MR-G, the NCP4623HSN120T1G offers superior thermal fault management (150°C trip / 125°C release), tighter output accuracy (±2.0% vs. ±2.5%), and proven robustness in industrial temperature ranges (−40°C to +85°C ambient), making it optimal for mission-critical embedded power rails.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NCP4623HSN120T1G?
The NCP4623HSN120T1G has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 26.0 V, with recommended continuous operation up to 24 V. This allows safe use in 24 V industrial systems and automotive environments where load-dump transients may reach 25 V. Exceeding 26 V risks permanent damage per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table in the datasheet.
Does the NCP4623HSN120T1G require external components to operate stably?
Yes - the NCP4623HSN120T1G requires two 0.1 µF ceramic capacitors: one between VIN and GND, and another between VOUT and GND, both placed as close as possible to their respective pins. These are mandatory for stability and transient response; omitting them causes oscillation or poor line/load regulation.
What is the dropout voltage of the NCP4623HSN120T1G at full 150 mA load?
The datasheet specifies dropout voltage for the 12.0 V version as 0.30–0.55 V at 20 mA. At 150 mA, measured curves (Figure 11) show ~0.45 V typical at 25°C. For design margin, use 0.55 V - meaning VIN must be ≥12.55 V to maintain regulation under full load at elevated temperature.
Can the NCP4623HSN120T1G be used with tantalum output capacitors?
No - the NCP4623HSN120T1G is optimized for ceramic capacitors ≥0.1 µF. Tantalum capacitors with high ESR can cause loop instability and oscillation, as explicitly warned in the Application Information section. Only X5R/X7R ceramic types are validated for stable operation.
How does the CE pin function on the NCP4623HSN120T1G?
The CE pin is an active-high enable input: applying ≥2.1 V turns the regulator ON; pulling ≤0.3 V disables it, reducing quiescent current to 0.1 µA typ. The pin must never float - tie to GND or controlled logic to prevent undefined output states and internal leakage paths.
