Product details
Overview
NCP612SQ33T1 from onsemi is a 3.3 V fixed-output, 100 mA CMOS low-dropout linear regulator in SC70−5 package, featuring 40 µA typical quiescent current, 230 mV dropout at 100 mA, and ±2.0% output voltage accuracy - designed for battery-powered portable electronics requiring ultra-low standby power.
For engineers reviewing the NCP612SQ33T1 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its SC70−5 footprint compatibility, enable-controlled shutdown capability, ceramic-capacitor stability, and −40°C to +85°C industrial operating range.
Technical Context
The NCP612SQ33T1 integrates a PMOS pass transistor, precision voltage reference, error amplifier, and thermal/overcurrent protection - enabling stable regulation with minimal external components. Its enable input provides logic-level control (VTH(HI) = 0.95 V, VTH(LO) = 0.3 V) for system-level power sequencing.
Designed for low-noise, low-power operation, it delivers 100 µVRMS output noise (100 Hz–100 kHz), >50 dB ripple rejection at 1 kHz, and maintains regulation down to 200 mV input–output differential across temperature and load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.3 V ±2.0% (ensures reliable MCU/core logic supply under load and temperature variation) |
| Max Output Current | 100 mA (supports low-power microcontrollers, sensors, and RF front-ends) |
| Quiescent Current | 40 µA typical (enables multi-year battery life in always-on IoT endpoints) |
| Dropout Voltage | 230 mV at 100 mA (allows operation from single-cell Li-ion or 3.6 V supply with margin) |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +85°C (qualified for industrial and consumer portable equipment environments) |
| Input Voltage Range | 0 V to 6.0 V (compatible with common battery and intermediate rail sources) |
| Output Noise | 100 µVRMS (100 Hz–100 kHz; suitable for noise-sensitive analog circuits) |
Pinout & Package
Package: SC70−5 (Case 419A−02), 1.8 mm × 1.35 mm × 0.9 mm, surface-mount, Pb-free compatible.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Vin | Positive input supply - accepts up to 6.0 V; requires local 1.0 µF decoupling |
| 2 | Gnd | Power ground reference - must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise |
| 3 | Enable | Active-high digital control - pulls low to disable regulator (IQ < 0.03 µA) |
| 4 | N/C | No internal connection - left unconnected or grounded per layout best practice |
| 5 | Vout | Regulated 3.3 V output - supports ceramic or tantalum capacitors ≥1.0 µF |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low IQ | 40 µA typical enables >10-year shelf life in coin-cell–powered devices |
| Ceramic-capacitor stable | No ESR requirement - simplifies BOM and reduces board area vs. electrolytic/tantalum solutions |
| Enable-controlled shutdown | Reduces total system standby current to sub-µA level when paired with host MCU GPIO |
| Thermal & current protection | Internal foldback current limit and thermal shutdown at ~160°C prevent damage during overload or poor heatsinking |
| High PSRR | >50 dB at 1 kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-3302E/MB | 300 mA rated, 1.6 µA IQ, SOT-23-5 package (larger than SC70−5), 600 mV dropout at 250 mA | Better for higher-current loads but occupies 2.9× larger PCB area; lower IQ benefits ultra-long-life applications | Choose if >100 mA output or sub-µA IQ is critical; avoid if SC70−5 footprint is mandatory |
| Torex XC6206P332MR-G | 150 mA rated, 1 µA IQ, SOT-23-5, 350 mV dropout at 100 mA, no enable pin | Lacks enable control - requires external FET or system-level power gating; smaller IQ but higher dropout limits low-Vin use | Select when absolute minimum standby current outweighs need for active enable; verify dropout margin with your Vin min |
Compared with MCP1700T-3302E/MB and XC6206P332MR-G, the NCP612SQ33T1 offers optimal balance of SC70−5 size, 100 mA capability, enable functionality, and 40 µA IQ - making it ideal for space-constrained, battery-sensitive designs where moderate load current and precise control are required.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NCP612SQ33T1?
The NCP612SQ33T1 has an absolute maximum input voltage of 6.0 V. Operation above this level risks permanent damage. For reliable long-term performance, keep Vin ≤ 6.0 V under all conditions including transient spikes - especially important when used with unregulated battery inputs or upstream switching regulators.
Does the NCP612SQ33T1 require an external capacitor on the Enable pin?
No, the NCP612SQ33T1 does not require an external capacitor on the Enable pin. The Enable input is CMOS-compatible with TTL logic thresholds (VTH(HI) = 0.95 V, VTH(LO) = 0.3 V); it draws negligible current and may be driven directly from an MCU GPIO. If unused, connect Enable to Vin to ensure always-on operation.
Can the NCP612SQ33T1 be used with a 10 µF ceramic output capacitor?
Yes, the NCP612SQ33T1 is stable with ceramic output capacitors ranging from 1.0 µF to ≥10 µF - including X5R/X7R types. Larger values improve load transient response and noise suppression. No ESR requirements apply, unlike older LDO architectures, making 10 µF ceramic a valid and recommended choice for demanding applications.
What is the thermal shutdown threshold of the NCP612SQ33T1?
The NCP612SQ33T1 incorporates internal thermal protection that activates at approximately 160°C junction temperature. When triggered, the device shuts down the output until the die cools below the hysteresis threshold (~140°C). This safeguard prevents irreversible damage during sustained overload or inadequate PCB thermal relief.
Is the NCP612SQ33T1 pin-compatible with other variants in the NCP612 family?
Yes, all NCP612 variants (e.g., NCP612SQ15T1, NCP612SQ30T1) share identical SC70−5 pinout and footprint. Only the output voltage and marking code differ - enabling drop-in replacement across 1.5 V to 5.0 V versions without PCB redesign, provided thermal and electrical margins remain acceptable for the new voltage.
