Product details
Overview
NCP580SQ15T1G from onsemi is a 1.5 V, 120 mA ultra-low-dropout linear regulator with active-high enable, designed for precision voltage regulation in portable battery-powered systems. It delivers 1.5% output voltage accuracy, 150 mV dropout at 100 mA, 30 µVRMS output noise (no NR cap), and operates from 2.2 V to 6.0 V input across –40°C to +85°C ambient.
For engineers reviewing the NCP580SQ15T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include low quiescent current (90 µA), fast load transient response with 2.2 µF ceramic output capacitor, high PSRR (70 dB @ 1 kHz), and SC-82AB package compatibility with space-constrained handheld instrumentation designs.
Technical Context
The NCP580SQ15T1G implements a CMOS-based LDO architecture with internal bandgap reference, error amplifier, and PMOS pass transistor-enabling ultra-low dropout and minimal quiescent current. Its enable logic is active-high, with threshold defined as VENH ≥ 1.5 V and VENL ≤ 0.3 V relative to Vin.
It features fold-back current limiting, thermal shutdown, and low temperature drift (100 ppm/°C). Input voltage range is 2.2 V to 6.0 V; output is fixed at 1.5 V with ±1.5% initial accuracy and load regulation of ≤12 mV from 1 mA to 120 mA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5 V ±1.5% - ensures stable core/bias rail for low-voltage microcontrollers and sensors. |
| Max Output Current | 120 mA - supports moderate-power analog front-ends and RF biasing without thermal derating in SC-82AB. |
| Dropout Voltage | 180 mV @ 120 mA (VOUT = 2.8 V), 360 mV @ 120 mA (VOUT = 1.5 V) - enables operation down to ~1.68 V input for 1.5 V output. |
| Quiescent Current | 90 µA typical - extends battery life in always-on monitoring circuits with infrequent wake-up cycles. |
| PSRR | 70 dB @ 1 kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC-DC converters feeding shared input rails. |
| Output Noise | 30 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz, no NR cap) - suitable for noise-sensitive ADC references and RF synthesizer VCO supplies. |
| Enable Threshold | VENH ≥ 1.5 V, VENL ≤ 0.3 V - compatible with 1.8 V and 3.3 V GPIO control without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SC-82AB (Case 419C-02), 4-pin surface-mount, 1.90 mm × 1.30 mm × 0.95 mm body, Pb-free, moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - Vout | Regulated output | Delivers stable 1.5 V; requires ≥2.2 µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin for stability and transient response. |
| 2 - GND | Power ground | Low-impedance return path; must be connected directly to PCB ground plane with minimal trace inductance. |
| 3 - CE | Chip enable (active-high) | Drives internal regulator into <0.1 µA shutdown when pulled low; compatible with 1.8 V logic. |
| 4 - Vin | Input supply | Accepts 2.2–6.0 V; requires 1.0 µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed near pin per layout guidelines. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low dropout | 150 mV @ 100 mA enables use with single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2 V) or two-cell alkaline (2.4–3.2 V) inputs. |
| Low-noise regulation | 30 µVRMS output noise eliminates need for external noise-reduction capacitors in precision analog signal chains. |
| High PSRR | 70 dB @ 1 kHz rejects ripple from upstream buck converters, reducing need for additional filtering stages. |
| Fast transient response | Stabilizes within <10 µs for 50 mA load steps (with 2.2 µF output cap), supporting dynamic power modes in portable devices. |
| Thermal & current protection | Fold-back current limit and thermal shutdown prevent damage during sustained overload or poor PCB heatsinking. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-1502E/TT | 1.5 V fixed, 250 mA, 1.6 µA IQ, SOT-23-3 (no CE pin) | Lacks enable function; higher max current but lower PSRR (60 dB @ 1 kHz) | Select when ultra-low IQ dominates over enable control and noise performance. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NCP580SQ15T1G?
The NCP580SQ15T1G has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 6.5 V. Its recommended operating input range is 2.2 V to 6.0 V. Exceeding 6.5 V may cause permanent damage. The device maintains regulation down to ~1.68 V input (1.5 V + dropout) under full 120 mA load, making it suitable for single-cell Li-ion and multi-cell alkaline systems.
Does the NCP580SQ15T1G require an external noise-reduction capacitor?
No, the NCP580SQ15T1G achieves 30 µVRMS output noise (10 Hz–100 kHz) without any external noise-reduction capacitor. Its internal design minimizes inherent noise sources, eliminating the need for a dedicated NR pin or external bypass cap-reducing BOM count and PCB area versus alternatives requiring NR networks.
What is the shutdown current specification for the NCP580SQ15T1G?
The NCP580SQ15T1G draws only 0.1 µA typical shutdown current when the CE pin is driven low. This ultra-low leakage enables multi-year battery life in always-connected IoT edge nodes and maintenance-free sensor deployments where the regulator spends >99% of time in disabled state.
Can the NCP580SQ15T1G be used with ceramic output capacitors smaller than 2.2 µF?
While 2.2 µF is the recommended minimum for guaranteed stability and optimal transient response, the NCP580SQ15T1G remains stable with ≥1.0 µF ceramic output capacitance per onsemi's application notes. However, using <2.2 µF increases peak deviation during 50 mA load steps by up to 40% and reduces PSRR margin above 100 kHz.
What is the thermal performance of the NCP580SQ15T1G in the SC-82AB package?
In the SC-82AB package, the NCP580SQ15T1G has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of approximately 220°C/W on a standard 2-layer FR-4 PCB with minimal copper. At 120 mA and 6.0 V input, power dissipation reaches ~540 mW, resulting in ~120°C junction rise-requiring either reduced load, lower input voltage, or enhanced PCB copper pour to stay within the 125°C TJ(max) limit.
