Product details
Overview
NCP612SQ33T1G from onsemi is a fixed-output CMOS low-dropout linear voltage regulator delivering 3.3 V at up to 100 mA, featuring ultra-low 40 µA quiescent current and 230 mV dropout at full load - designed for battery-powered portable electronics requiring stable, low-power supply regulation.
For engineers reviewing the NCP612SQ33T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its SC70-5 package footprint, enable-controlled standby mode, ±2.0% output accuracy over −40 °C to +85 °C, and compatibility with low-ESR ceramic capacitors without stability compensation.
Technical Context
The NCP612SQ33T1G integrates a PMOS pass transistor, precision voltage reference, error amplifier, and thermal/current-limit protection in a single die. Its architecture enables stable operation with 1.0 µF input/output ceramic capacitors and supports logic-level enable control with 0.3 V (low) / 0.95 V (high) thresholds.
It operates across 1.5 V to 6.0 V input range while maintaining regulation down to 230 mV headroom at 100 mA output. The device is specified for industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +85 °C), with ground current tightly controlled at 40 µA (typ.) under no-load and 90 µA (max) across full load range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.3 V ±2.0% - ensures reliable power delivery to 3.3 V logic rails including microcontrollers and sensors. |
| Max Output Current | 100 mA - sufficient for low-power peripherals such as BLE radios, display drivers, and sensor interfaces. |
| Quiescent Current | 40 µA typical - extends battery life in always-on or sleep-mode applications like remote controls and wearables. |
| Dropout Voltage | 230 mV at 100 mA - allows operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0 V min) or two-cell alkaline (3.2 V min) sources. |
| Input Voltage Range | 0–6.0 V - supports wide input sources including USB (5 V), coin cells, and regulated intermediate rails. |
| Operating Temp | −40 °C to +85 °C - qualified for industrial and consumer portable equipment environments. |
| Package | SC70-5 - 2.0 × 1.25 mm surface-mount footprint ideal for space-constrained handheld designs. |
Pinout & Package
Supplied in the micro-miniature SC70-5 (SOT-353) package, the NCP612SQ33T1G uses a standardized 5-pin surface-mount outline with exposed pad not present. Pin 4 is the regulated output; Pin 1 accepts unregulated input; Pin 2 is ground; Pin 3 is active-high enable; Pin 4 is no-connect internally.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Vin | Unregulated input supply - must be decoupled with ≥1.0 µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| 2 | Gnd | Power ground reference - requires low-impedance PCB connection to minimize noise coupling and thermal rise. |
| 3 | Enable | Logic-controlled ON/OFF - pulled high to Vin for operation; pulled low to disable output and reduce quiescent draw to <1 µA. |
| 4 | N/C | No internal connection - left floating or grounded; no electrical function or routing required. |
| 5 | Vout | Regulated 3.3 V output - drives load directly; requires ≥1.0 µF ceramic output capacitor for transient stability and noise filtering. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 40 µA typical - enables multi-year battery life in IoT endpoints and energy-harvesting systems. |
| Low dropout voltage | 230 mV at 100 mA - maximizes usable battery capacity by minimizing voltage headroom loss. |
| Stable with ceramic capacitors | No ESR requirement - eliminates need for tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors, reducing BOM cost and size. |
| Enable control with defined thresholds | 0.95 V turn-on / 0.3 V turn-off - compatible with 1.8 V and 3.3 V GPIOs without level-shifting. |
| Thermal and current protection | Internally limited - prevents damage during overload or ambient overheating without external circuitry. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-IQ LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-3302E/MB | 400 mV dropout at 250 mA; 1.8–6.0 V input; 250 mA max output; SOT-23-3 package | Higher output current but larger footprint and no enable pin - unsuitable for space-constrained or enable-controlled designs | Select when higher load current is needed and enable control is unnecessary. |
| Torex XC6206P332MR-G | 150 mV dropout at 100 mA; 1.8–6.0 V input; 100 mA max; SOT-23-5 package with enable | Lower dropout and same enable functionality, but ±2.5% output tolerance vs. ±2.0% for NCP612SQ33T1G | Prefer when minimal dropout is critical and tighter output accuracy is not required. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NCP612SQ33T1G?
The NCP612SQ33T1G has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 6.0 V. Exceeding this value may cause permanent damage. Operation is guaranteed across 1.5 V to 6.0 V input range, with dropout performance optimized above 3.3 V + 230 mV. The device includes internal protection against overvoltage stress within these limits.
Does the NCP612SQ33T1G require external components to operate stably?
Yes - the NCP612SQ33T1G requires a minimum 1.0 µF ceramic capacitor on both input (Vin) and output (Vout) pins, placed as close as possible to the device. These capacitors ensure stability, improve line/load transient response, and suppress noise. No ESR requirements or additional compensation networks are needed.
Can the NCP612SQ33T1G be used in automotive applications?
No - the NCP612SQ33T1G is rated for −40 °C to +85 °C and is not AEC-Q100 qualified. For automotive use, the pin-compatible NCV612SQ33T2G variant is specified for −40 °C to +125 °C and meets AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements with PPAP capability.
What is the typical startup time of the NCP612SQ33T1G after enabling?
The NCP612SQ33T1G achieves 90% of final output voltage in approximately 1.2 ms when enabled from shutdown, as measured with 1.0 µF output capacitance and 10 mA load. This fast turn-on supports responsive wake-up in duty-cycled systems such as motion-activated sensors and intermittent data loggers.
Is the NCP612SQ33T1G RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes - the NCP612SQ33T1G is a Pb-free device per JEDEC J-STD-609, with "G" suffix indicating RoHS-compliant packaging. It conforms to EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is manufactured using lead-free solderable terminations and halogen-free molding compounds.
