Product details
Overview
NCP585LSAN18T1G from onsemi is an active-low enable, tri-mode 300 mA CMOS low-dropout regulator delivering a fixed 1.8 V output with ±2% accuracy in HSON−6 package. It supports Chip Enable (CE), Fast Transient (FT), and Low Power (LP) modes via the ECO pin, features 310 mV dropout at 300 mA (FT mode), 70 dB PSRR at 1 kHz, and ultra-low 60 µA quiescent current in FT mode - ideal for battery-powered portable instrumentation requiring stable low-voltage rail generation.
For engineers reviewing the NCP585LSAN18T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified technical context, mode-specific electrical behavior, package-validated pin functions, real-world use cases in handheld equipment, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and application-level differences.
Technical Context
The NCP585LSAN18T1G implements a CMOS-based LDO architecture with three configurable operating modes: CE mode (standard enable), FT mode (optimized for transient response and 60 µA Iq), and LP mode (3.5 µA Iq, relaxed load regulation). Mode selection is controlled exclusively by the ECO pin voltage relative to GND or Vin.
Its internal design includes foldback current limiting, auto-discharge capability (in active-high variants only - not applicable to NCP585LSAN18T1G), and a precision bandgap reference with 100 ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Input voltage range is 1.4 V to 6.0 V, supporting single-cell Li-ion and multi-cell alkaline/battery systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.8 V ±2% (FT mode); ±3% (LP mode) - ensures stable core logic supply for 1.8 V microcontrollers and sensors. |
| Max Output Current | 300 mA continuous - sufficient for powering SoCs, RF transceivers, or multiple peripherals in portable devices. |
| Dropout Voltage | 310 mV @ 300 mA (ECO = Vin, FT mode) - enables operation down to ~2.11 V input for 1.8 V output, extending battery runtime. |
| Quiescent Current | 60 µA @ Vout = 1.8 V, FT mode; 4.5 µA @ LP mode - critical for low-power sleep states in always-on sensor nodes. |
| PSRR | 70 dB @ 1 kHz, 50 mA load - suppresses switching noise from DC-DC converters feeding the LDO input. |
| Line Regulation | 0.01%/V (FT mode) - maintains tight output stability across varying battery voltage (e.g., 3.0 V → 2.4 V discharge). |
| Load Regulation | 15 mV (FT mode, 1–300 mA) - limits output sag during dynamic processor load changes. |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +85°C ambient - qualified for industrial-grade portable equipment deployment. |
Pinout & Package
HSON−6 (Case 506AE) package: 2.9 mm × 3.0 mm × 0.7–0.9 mm body height, exposed thermal pad, Pb-free, moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Vin | Main power input (1.4–6.0 V); requires 1.0 µF ceramic decoupling to GND per datasheet recommendation. |
| 2 | GND | Power ground reference; connects to PCB ground plane and exposed thermal pad for thermal dissipation. |
| 3 | CE | Active-low chip enable: pulls output to high-impedance when driven low; threshold VTHL = 0.3 Vin. |
| 4 | ECO | Mode control: tie to Vin for FT mode (60 µA Iq, fast transient response); tie to GND for LP mode (4.5 µA Iq, relaxed regulation). |
| 5 | Vout | Regulated 1.8 V output; requires 1.0 µF low-ESR capacitor placed adjacent to pin per layout guidelines. |
| 6 | NC | No connect - internally unconnected; must remain floating or grounded (not driven). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Tri-mode operation | Hardware-selectable CE, FT, and LP modes via ECO pin - eliminates need for external mode-control logic or firmware intervention. |
| Ultra-low shutdown current | 0.1 µA max when CE = high - preserves battery charge during extended system sleep or storage. |
| High PSRR at 1 kHz | 70 dB - effectively filters ripple from upstream switching regulators without additional LC filtering. |
| Precision output accuracy | ±2% over line/load/temp - meets tight tolerance requirements of 1.8 V I/O and core rails in modern MCUs. |
| Foldback current protection | Short-circuit current limited to ~50 mA - prevents thermal runaway and enables safe fault recovery in portable designs. |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Industrial Handheld Scanners |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| NCP1117ST18T3G | Fixed 1.8 V, 1 A output, SOT-223 package, 1.2 V dropout min, 8 mA Iq, no tri-mode control. | Higher current and thermal margin but lacks low-Iq modes; unsuitable for sub-10 µA sleep systems. | Select when higher output current (>300 mA) or better thermal performance is required, and ultra-low Iq is not critical. |
| MCP1702T-1802E/MB | Fixed 1.8 V, 250 mA, SOT-23-5, 4 µA Iq, no ECO pin or FT/LP modes; 600 mV dropout @ 250 mA. | Simpler single-mode operation; lower Iq than NCP585LSAN18T1G LP mode but significantly higher dropout. | Select for cost-sensitive, low-complexity designs where 300 mA current and fast transient response are not required. |
Compared with NCP1117ST18T3G and MCP1702T-1802E/MB, the NCP585LSAN18T1G uniquely balances 300 mA capability, 310 mV ultra-low dropout, and hardware-selectable 4.5–60 µA quiescent current - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-life–critical portable systems needing both performance and efficiency.

FAQ
What is the function of the ECO pin on the NCP585LSAN18T1G?
The ECO pin on the NCP585LSAN18T1G selects between Fast Transient (FT) mode and Low Power (LP) mode: connecting ECO to Vin activates FT mode (60 µA Iq, 15 mV load regulation), while connecting ECO to GND activates LP mode (4.5 µA Iq, 30 mV load regulation). This hardware-based mode switching enables dynamic power optimization without firmware overhead. The NCP585LSAN18T1G does not support auto-discharge functionality, which is exclusive to active-high variants like NCP585DSAN18T1G.
Does the NCP585LSAN18T1G support active-high enable?
No, the NCP585LSAN18T1G features active-low enable (CE pin), meaning the regulator is enabled when CE is pulled low and disabled when CE is high. Its marking suffix "L" explicitly denotes active-low logic. For active-high enable, designers must select variants such as NCP585DSAN18T1G (active-high with auto-discharge) or NCP585HSAN18T1G (active-high without auto-discharge). Pin compatibility is maintained across HSON−6 variants, but enable polarity and mode features differ.
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NCP585LSAN18T1G?
The absolute maximum input voltage for the NCP585LSAN18T1G is 6.5 V, but the recommended operating input voltage range is 1.4 V to 6.0 V per the Electrical Characteristics table. Operation above 6.0 V risks exceeding safe junction temperature or violating internal bias conditions, especially under full load. For 1.8 V output, minimum valid input is 2.11 V in FT mode (1.8 V + 310 mV dropout), ensuring regulation across the usable battery discharge curve.
Can the NCP585LSAN18T1G be used with ceramic output capacitors?
Yes, the NCP585LSAN18T1G is stable with 1.0 µF ceramic output capacitors, as confirmed in the Application Information section and Figure 32–35 stability plots. The datasheet recommends low-ESR ceramics and specifies stable operation down to 0.1 µF (with defined ESR constraints per load current). Tantalum capacitors (1.0 µF) are also validated, but aluminum electrolytics are not recommended due to higher ESR and potential instability.
Is the NC pin on the NCP585LSAN18T1G required to be left floating?
Pin 6 of the NCP585LSAN18T1G is marked NC (No Connect) and is internally unconnected. It must not be driven or tied to any voltage; however, it may be connected to GND for mechanical stability or thermal conduction if needed - provided no signal routing or active driving occurs. Leaving it floating is acceptable, but grounding improves thermal performance slightly via the exposed pad connection path.
