Product details
Overview
NCP629FC15T2G from onsemi is a fixed 1.5 V, 150 mA CMOS low-dropout (LDO) regulator in a 5-pin flip-chip CSP package (Case 499AY), featuring 150 mV dropout at full load, 15 µs enable turn-on time, and ±2% output voltage tolerance over -40°C to 125°C - deployed in portable RF subsystems requiring ultra-low noise and fast power sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the NCP629FC15T2G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include dropout performance at 150 mA, ESD robustness (HBM 3.5 kV), thermal shutdown behavior (175°C), ground current in run mode (135–170 µA), and compatibility with 1.0 µF ceramic output capacitors without minimum ESR requirements.
Technical Context
The NCP629FC15T2G integrates a precision bandgap reference, error amplifier, and PMOS pass transistor with internal current limiting and thermal shutdown. Its enable input supports sub-1 V logic thresholds (0.4 V low, 0.9 V high) and draws only 3–100 nA bias current.
Designed for battery-powered systems, it operates across 1.5 V to 6.0 V input while maintaining regulation down to VOUT + VDO (1.65 V min at 150 mA). Output stability is guaranteed with 1.0 µF ceramic capacitors regardless of ESR, eliminating need for external noise-reduction caps.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5 V ±2% over -40°C to 125°C - ensures stable core supply for low-voltage digital ICs |
| Max Output Current | 150 mA - sufficient for baseband processors or RF front-end bias rails |
| Dropout Voltage | 150 mV at 150 mA - enables operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0 V) or dual-cell NiMH (2.4 V) |
| Enable Threshold | Logic-low ≤0.4 V, logic-high ≥0.9 V - compatible with 1.2 V/1.8 V I/O domains |
| Noise Voltage | 50 µVrms (10 Hz–100 kHz) - meets VCO and RF LNA supply noise requirements |
| Thermal Shutdown | Activates at 175°C with 10°C hysteresis - prevents latch-up during transient overload |
| ESD Protection | HBM 3.5 kV, MM 400 V - exceeds AEC-Q100 stress levels for handheld assembly |
Pinout & Package
Package: 5-pin flip-chip CSP (Case 499AY), dimensions 1.028 mm × 1.190 mm × 0.6 mm max height, Pb-free, MSL1/260°C.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| C3 | Vin | Positive input supply - must be decoupled with ≥1.0 µF ceramic capacitor adjacent to pin |
| A1 | GND | Power ground and substrate connection - forms primary thermal path to PCB copper |
| A3 | ENABLE | Active-high enable control - pulled to Vin for always-on operation; <0.4 V disables regulator |
| B2 | NC | No internal connection - must remain unconnected per datasheet |
| C1 | Vout | Regulated 1.5 V output - drives load directly; stable with 1.0–10 µF ceramic capacitors |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low dropout | 150 mV at 150 mA enables use with depleted batteries or low-headroom supplies |
| Fast enable response | 15 µs turn-on time supports dynamic power gating in portable SoC subsystems |
| No-ESR capacitor support | Stable with 1.0 µF ceramic output caps - eliminates tantalum cost and reliability risk |
| Low-noise operation | 50 µVrms noise without bypass cap - avoids added board area and startup delay |
| Enhanced ESD protection | HBM 3.5 kV rating reduces field failure risk during manual handling and board assembly |
Applications
| RF Power Amplifier Bias | VCO Supply Rail |

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 | 250 mV dropout at 250 mA; 6 µA quiescent current; SOT-23-5 package | Larger footprint; higher dropout limits use in low-Vin battery scenarios | Prefer when ultra-low IQ dominates over size/noise; verify thermal derating at 150 mA |
| Torex XC6206P152MR-G | 200 mV dropout at 150 mA; 1.0 µF ceramic stable; SOT-25 package | Same 1.5 V output but lacks ESD rating >2 kV HBM and thermal hysteresis spec | Acceptable for non-handheld industrial use; avoid where ESD robustness is critical |
Compared with NCP629FC15T2G, MCP1700T-1502E/TT trades smaller dropout margin and larger package for lower IQ, while XC6206P152MR-G matches output and stability but omits enhanced ESD and thermal hysteresis - making NCP629FC15T2G optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability portable RF designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NCP629FC15T2G?
The NCP629FC15T2G has an absolute maximum input voltage of 6.5 V. However, its recommended operating input range is 1.5 V to 6.0 V. Operation below 1.5 V is not guaranteed due to dropout constraints - minimum valid Vin equals the greater of 1.5 V or (Vout + VDO), i.e., 1.65 V at 150 mA load. Exceeding 6.5 V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Does the NCP629FC15T2G require an external bypass capacitor for noise reduction?
No, the NCP629FC15T2G does not require an external noise-reduction capacitor. It achieves 50 µVrms output noise (10 Hz–100 kHz) without one, unlike many competing LDOs. This eliminates added board area, cost, and startup delay associated with external bypass caps - a key design advantage confirmed in the Applications Information section of the datasheet.
What is the thermal shutdown behavior of the NCP629FC15T2G?
The NCP629FC15T2G activates thermal shutdown at approximately 175°C junction temperature and includes 10°C hysteresis, meaning it resumes regulation only after cooling to ~165°C. This protects against sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design. The device's RJA is 277°C/W on a 645 mm², 1 oz copper board - allowing up to 360 mW dissipation at 25°C ambient before reaching TJ(max).
Can the NCP629FC15T2G operate with a 1.0 µF ceramic output capacitor?
Yes, the NCP629FC15T2G is explicitly characterized and guaranteed stable with a 1.0 µF ceramic output capacitor - no minimum ESR requirement. Figure 23 in the datasheet confirms stability across ESR values from 0.01 Ω to 10 Ω at all output currents. This simplifies design, reduces BOM count, and improves reliability versus tantalum alternatives.
What is the function of the NC pin (B2) on the NCP629FC15T2G?
The B2 pin on the NCP629FC15T2G is designated "No Connection" and must remain unconnected in the PCB layout. It has no internal bond wire or circuit connection, as confirmed in the Pin Function Description table (page 2) and Absolute Maximum Ratings section. Routing or soldering to this pin may compromise thermal performance or cause unintended electrical coupling.
