Product details
Overview
NCP663SQ18T1G from onsemi is a fixed-output, 1.8 V, 100 mA CMOS low-dropout linear regulator in SC-82AB package, featuring 2.5 µA typical quiescent current, ±2.0% output voltage accuracy, and dropout voltage of 500 mV at 100 mA load - designed for battery-powered instrumentation requiring ultra-low standby power.
For engineers reviewing the NCP663SQ18T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include guaranteed 100 mA output capability with 2.5 µA IQ, thermal shutdown protection, compatibility with 0.1 µF ceramic output capacitors, and operation across −40 °C to +85 °C ambient temperature.
Technical Context
The NCP663SQ18T1G integrates a PMOS pass transistor, error amplifier, voltage reference, and thermal/overcurrent protection circuits - eliminating need for external compensation. It operates without an enable pin (N/C on Pin 4), distinguishing it from the NCP662 series which includes Enable functionality.
This device delivers stable 1.8 V regulation with 100 ppm/°C temperature coefficient and 100 µVRMS output noise (100 Hz–100 kHz), supporting precision analog and low-noise digital subsystems where supply ripple and quiescent consumption are critical constraints.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 1.8 V ±2.0% (ensures reliable logic-level supply for 1.8 V microcontrollers and sensors) |
| Max Output Current | 100 mA (supports moderate-power peripherals like ADCs, RF transceivers, or small displays) |
| Quiescent Current | 2.5 µA typical (enables multi-year battery life in always-on monitoring devices) |
| Dropout Voltage | 500 mV at 100 mA (allows operation down to 2.3 V input, compatible with single Li-ion or two alkaline cells) |
| Input Voltage Range | Up to 6.0 V (supports wide-input industrial and automotive auxiliary rails) |
| Thermal Protection | Internal shutdown at ~160 °C (prevents damage during sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design) |
| Output Capacitor | Minimum 0.1 µF ceramic (enables compact, low-BOM-cost designs without ESR constraints) |
Pinout & Package
Package: SC-82AB (micro-miniature surface-mount, 1.8 mm × 1.2 mm × 0.9 mm, 4-pin, Pb-free).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Power ground reference; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling and ensure regulation stability |
| 2 | Vin | Unregulated input supply; accepts 1.8 V to 6.0 V; requires local 1.0 µF decoupling capacitor |
| 3 | Vout | Regulated 1.8 V output; connects directly to load; supports 0.1 µF–10 µF ceramic or tantalum capacitors |
| 4 | N/C | No internal connection; left unconnected or tied to GND per layout best practice; not usable as enable or feedback |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 2.5 µA typical enables >10-year battery life in IoT sensor nodes drawing <10 µA average current |
| Fixed 1.8 V output | Eliminates external resistor network; reduces BOM count and layout area for space-constrained wearables |
| SC-82AB package | 0.9 mm profile and 1.8 mm × 1.2 mm footprint supports high-density portable PCBs with minimal thermal mass |
| Thermal & current protection | Integrated shutdown prevents failure under short-circuit or overheating - no external circuitry required |
| 0.1 µF minimum Cout | Enables use of low-cost, small-footprint X5R/X7R ceramics - avoids costly tantalum or polymer capacitors |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-1802E/TT | 250 mV dropout at 100 mA; 1.6 µA IQ; SOT-23-3 package (3-pin, no N/C) | Lacks thermal shutdown; requires minimum 1.0 µF output capacitor | Preferred where lower dropout and smaller IQ are critical, and thermal robustness is managed externally |
| Torex XC6206P182MR-G | 350 mV dropout at 100 mA; 1.0 µA IQ; SOT-25 package (5-pin, includes CE) | Includes active-high enable; tighter 1.0% initial accuracy but narrower 2.0–6.0 V input range | Chosen when system-level power sequencing or deeper sleep modes are required via enable control |
Compared with MCP1700T-1802E/TT and XC6206P182MR-G, the NCP663SQ18T1G offers superior thermal protection and relaxed output capacitor requirements (0.1 µF), making it more suitable for cost-sensitive, high-reliability portable instrumentation where layout space and safety margins are constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NCP663SQ18T1G?
The NCP663SQ18T1G has a maximum input voltage rating of 6.0 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Exceeding this voltage may cause permanent damage. This rating allows safe operation from common sources including 5 V USB-derived rails, dual alkaline batteries (up to ~3.2 V), or regulated 3.3 V/5 V system supplies feeding the NCP663SQ18T1G.
Does the NCP663SQ18T1G include an enable pin?
No, the NCP663SQ18T1G does not include an enable pin. Pin 4 is marked N/C (No Connection) in the datasheet and has no internal function. Unlike the NCP662 series, the NCP663 variant omits enable functionality - power control must be implemented externally via input rail switching or upstream regulators.
What is the minimum output capacitor required for stable operation of the NCP663SQ18T1G?
The NCP663SQ18T1G requires a minimum output capacitor of 0.1 µF ceramic, as confirmed in both the datasheet's "Features" section and "Applications Information" page. Larger values (e.g., 1.0 µF) improve load transient response and noise rejection, but the device remains stable with the 0.1 µF minimum - enabling compact, low-cost designs.
What is the dropout voltage of the NCP663SQ18T1G at full rated load?
The dropout voltage of the NCP663SQ18T1G is 500 mV typical at 100 mA output current and 25 °C, measured when Vout drops 3.0% below nominal (i.e., to 1.746 V). This value increases slightly at higher temperatures and lower input voltages, remaining within 700 mV across the full −40 °C to +85 °C operating range.
Is the NCP663SQ18T1G suitable for automotive applications?
The standard NCP663SQ18T1G is rated for −40 °C to +85 °C and is not AEC-Q100 qualified. However, the pin-compatible NCV663SQ18T1G variant is automotive-grade, AEC-Q100 qualified, and PPAP capable - designed explicitly for infotainment, body electronics, and cabin sensor modules requiring automotive reliability standards.
