Product details
Overview
NCP4625DSN12T1G from onsemi is a 300 mA, 1.2 V fixed-output CMOS low-dropout linear regulator in SOT-23-5 package, operating from 2.6 V to 10 V input, featuring 23 µA quiescent current, 770 mV dropout at 300 mA, and ±1% output voltage accuracy over −40°C to +85°C - used for powering low-voltage logic in portable battery-powered devices.
For engineers reviewing the NCP4625DSN12T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include its auto-discharge function (D-version), thermal shutdown at 165°C, CE pin enable threshold (1.7 V), stability with 1 µF ceramic output capacitor, and suitability for space-constrained designs requiring <1 mm profile.
Technical Context
The NCP4625DSN12T1G implements a CMOS-based LDO architecture with an internal N-channel pass transistor, enabling low dropout and high PSRR (70 dB at 1 kHz). Its chip-enable circuitry includes an internal pull-down current source (0.3 µA) and logic-level compatible CE threshold (VCEH = 1.7 V, VCEL = 0.8 V).
As a D-version variant, it integrates an active output discharge transistor between VOUT and GND, activated during disable to rapidly deplete output capacitance - critical for sequencing-sensitive systems. It achieves stable regulation with only 1 µF ceramic output capacitance and supports input-to-output differentials as low as 200 mV at light load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.2 V ±1% (25°C), ±2.3% over −40°C to +85°C - ensures reliable core voltage for 1.2 V microcontrollers and FPGAs. |
| Max Output Current | 300 mA continuous - sufficient for single-core ARM Cortex-M processors or sensor hubs with burst loads. |
| Dropout Voltage | 770 mV at 300 mA (VIN = 2.8 V); 200 mV at 100 mA (VIN = 3.0 V) - enables operation from two Li-ion cells (down to ~2.8 V under load). |
| Quiescent Current | 23 µA typical - extends battery life in always-on monitoring circuits without compromising startup speed. |
| PSRR | 70 dB at 1 kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC-DC converters feeding the LDO input. |
| Thermal Shutdown | Triggers at 165°C junction temperature, releases at 110°C - provides robust overtemperature protection without latch-up. |
| Enable Threshold | VCEH = 1.7 V min, VCEL = 0.8 V max - compatible with 1.8 V and 3.3 V GPIOs for controlled power sequencing. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 package (Case 1212), 2.9 × 2.8 × 1.15 mm body, 0.95 mm pitch, Pb-free, moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input supply connection | Accepts 2.6–10 V; requires 1 µF ceramic decoupling placed adjacent to pin for transient immunity. |
| GND | Power ground reference | Common return path for input/output currents; must be low-impedance and tied directly to power plane. |
| CE | Chip enable control input | Active-high logic input; internal 0.3 µA pull-down allows direct tie to VIN if unused; enables system-level power gating. |
| VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers stable 1.2 V; connects to 1 µF ceramic capacitor near pin to ensure loop stability and load transient response. |
| NC | No connection | Unbonded terminal; must remain floating - no routing or soldering permitted. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto-discharge function | D-version integrates dedicated VOUT-to-GND discharge transistor, reducing output decay time by >10× vs. passive RC discharge. |
| Ceramic capacitor stability | Stable with ≥1 µF X5R/X7R ceramic output capacitor - eliminates need for higher-ESR tantalum or electrolytic types. |
| Low-temperature drift | ±80 ppm/°C output voltage coefficient - maintains tight regulation across industrial temperature range without calibration. |
| Current fold-back protection | Reduces short-circuit current to 40 mA at VOUT = 0 V - limits power dissipation during fault conditions. |
| High line regulation | 0.02%/V typical - minimizes output variation when input voltage shifts due to battery discharge or upstream converter ripple. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NCP4625DSN12T1G?
The NCP4625DSN12T1G has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 12.0 V. However, the recommended operating input voltage range is 2.6 V to 10 V per the datasheet's Electrical Characteristics table. Exceeding 10 V may degrade long-term reliability even if below the 12 V absolute limit, and operation above 10 V is not characterized or guaranteed.
Does the NCP4625DSN12T1G require an external capacitor on the CE pin for noise immunity?
No, the NCP4625DSN12T1G does not require an external capacitor on the CE pin. Its CE input features built-in hysteresis and is specified to operate reliably with clean logic-level signals. Adding capacitance may slow enable/disable timing and is unnecessary unless system-level EMI testing reveals susceptibility - in which case a small 100 pF ceramic capacitor close to the pin may be added.
How does the auto-discharge function in the NCP4625DSN12T1G operate during shutdown?
When the CE pin is driven low, the NCP4625DSN12T1G activates an internal NMOS transistor between VOUT and GND, discharging the output capacitor rapidly. This function is exclusive to the "D" version (e.g., NCP4625DSN12T1G) and reduces VOUT decay time significantly compared to passive discharge - critical for systems requiring strict power-down sequencing or avoiding back-powering of upstream circuitry.
Can the NCP4625DSN12T1G be used with a 2.2 µF ceramic output capacitor instead of the recommended 1 µF?
Yes, the NCP4625DSN12T1G remains stable with a 2.2 µF ceramic output capacitor. The datasheet specifies stability with ≥1 µF X5R/X7R ceramics; increasing capacitance improves load transient response and reduces output ripple, provided ESR stays below 100 mΩ. No compensation changes are needed.
What is the thermal resistance (RJA) of the NCP4625DSN12T1G in its SOT-23-5 package?
The NCP4625DSN12T1G in SOT-23-5 (Case 1212) has a junction-to-air thermal resistance (RJA) of 238°C/W, as specified in the Thermal Characteristics table on page 3 of the datasheet. This value assumes standard JEDEC test board conditions (2s2p copper layers); actual RJA improves with enhanced PCB copper pour and thermal vias.
