Product details
Overview
NCP694DSAN25T1G from onsemi is a 2.5 V fixed-output, 1 A CMOS low-dropout linear voltage regulator in HSON-6 package, featuring ultra-low standby current (≤1.0 µA), −3 mV load regulation at 1 A, and integrated auto-discharge function for rapid output discharge during shutdown. It serves as a precision power supply for battery-powered portable electronics requiring stable low-voltage rails.
For engineers reviewing the NCP694DSAN25T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 1 A (0.32 V), thermal shutdown (150°C), enable threshold (0.4 V logic low), PSRR (70 dB @ 1 kHz), and compatibility with ceramic output capacitors ≥4.7 µF.
Technical Context
The NCP694DSAN25T1G uses a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout and fast transient response. Its internal circuit includes a precision 1.0 V reference, error amplifier, current-limit protection (250 mA short-circuit), and thermal shutdown with 30°C hysteresis.
This D-version device integrates an auto-discharge transistor activated during CE-driven standby mode, ensuring rapid VOUT discharge to prevent system latch-up or residual bias in portable applications. The HSON-6 package provides dual VOUT pins (pins 1 & 2) for enhanced current handling and reduced PCB trace resistance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.5 V ±3% (0.075 V tolerance), stable over −40°C to +85°C ambient |
| Max Output Current | 1 A continuous - supports high-current microcontrollers and RF modules without external heatsinking |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.32 V at 1 A - enables operation from 2.82 V input, critical for single-cell Li-ion or Li-poly systems |
| Load Regulation | −3 mV from 1 mA to 1 A - ensures <±0.12% output deviation under full dynamic load swing |
| PSRR | 70 dB at 1 kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC-DC converters feeding the LDO input |
| Standby Current | ≤1.0 µA at VIN = 6.0 V - extends battery life in deep-sleep modes of IoT sensors and wearables |
| Enable Threshold | VTH,LOW ≤ 0.4 V - compatible with 1.8 V/3.3 V GPIOs for reliable logic-controlled shutdown |
Pinout & Package
HSON-6 package (Case 506AE): 2.9 mm × 3.0 mm × 0.9 mm body, exposed thermal pad, Pb-free, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VOUT | Main regulated output terminal - paralleled with Pin 2 to share 1 A load current and reduce IR drop |
| 2 | VOUT | Secondary regulated output terminal - mandatory connection for full 1 A capability and thermal derating compliance |
| 3 | ADJ / NC | No connection for fixed-output NCP694DSAN25T1G - left floating or grounded per layout best practice |
| 4 | GND | Power ground reference - must connect directly to exposed thermal pad for optimal junction temperature control |
| 5 | CE | Active-high enable input - pulled low disables regulator and activates auto-discharge; tied to VIN if unused |
| 6 | VIN | Input supply (1.4–6.0 V) - requires local 4.7 µF ceramic decoupling within 2 mm of pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto-discharge function | Integrated NMOS switch discharges VOUT to GND in <100 µs upon CE deactivation - prevents back-powering of upstream circuits |
| Ultra-low dropout | 0.10 V dropout at 300 mA and 0.32 V at 1 A for 2.5 V output - maximizes usable battery voltage range |
| Thermal protection | 150°C junction shutdown with 30°C hysteresis - prevents permanent damage during sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design |
| High PSRR | 70 dB @ 1 kHz and >50 dB up to 100 kHz - maintains clean 2.5 V rail for analog sensors and ADC references |
| Ceramic capacitor compatible | Stable with ≥4.7 µF X5R/X7R MLCCs - eliminates need for bulky tantalum, reduces board area and cost |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Wearable Fitness Trackers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1703T-2502E/MB | 0.6 µA typical quiescent current vs. 1.0 µA max for NCP694DSAN25T1G; no auto-discharge; SOT-23-5 package | Lacks rapid VOUT discharge - unsuitable where back-powering must be avoided during shutdown | Select when lowest possible IQ dominates over discharge speed and thermal performance is less constrained |
| Torex XC6219B251MR-G | 250 mA max output vs. 1 A; 1.0 µA IQ; same HSON-6 footprint but single VOUT pin | Insufficient current for high-power RF or imaging subsystems; no dual-VOUT current sharing | Choose only for space-constrained, sub-250 mA loads where pin count and thermal margin are secondary |
Compared with MCP1703T-2502E/MB and XC6219B251MR-G, the NCP694DSAN25T1G uniquely delivers 1 A output with integrated auto-discharge and dual-VOUT routing in HSON-6 - making it the only option for compact, high-current, rapidly shutting-down portable systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NCP694DSAN25T1G?
The NCP694DSAN25T1G has an absolute maximum input voltage (VIN) of 6.5 V. Operation above 6.0 V is not recommended for long-term reliability. The device is rated for continuous operation from 1.4 V to 6.0 V input, making it ideal for single-cell Li-ion (up to 4.2 V) and multi-cell alkaline/NiMH systems. Exceeding 6.5 V risks permanent damage to the internal PMOS pass transistor and reference circuitry.
Does the NCP694DSAN25T1G require an external output capacitor, and what type is recommended?
Yes, the NCP694DSAN25T1G requires a minimum 4.7 µF output capacitor for stability. Ceramic X5R or X7R MLCCs are explicitly recommended and fully supported - no ESR requirements apply. Tantalum capacitors may be used but require careful ESR selection to avoid oscillation. The dual VOUT pins (1 & 2) must both connect to the same output node, and the capacitor should be placed within 2 mm of either pin for optimal transient response.
How does the auto-discharge function operate in the NCP694DSAN25T1G?
The NCP694DSAN25T1G's auto-discharge function activates automatically when the CE pin is driven low, turning on an internal NMOS transistor between VOUT and GND. This discharges the output capacitance rapidly - typically within 100 µs - preventing back-powering of upstream circuitry or unintended wake-up of downstream ICs. The feature is exclusive to "D" version devices like NCP694DSAN25T1G and is disabled in "H" versions.
What is the thermal performance of the NCP694DSAN25T1G in its HSON-6 package?
The NCP694DSAN25T1G in HSON-6 has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RJA) of 111°C/W under standard test conditions (1 oz copper, 100 mm² spread area). With a maximum junction temperature of 150°C and 85°C ambient, the device supports up to ~585 mW continuous power dissipation (ΔT = 65°C ÷ 111°C/W). For 1 A output at 2.5 V with 1.0 V dropout (1.0 W dissipation), a thermally enhanced PCB layout with the exposed pad soldered to ≥200 mm² internal ground plane is required.
Can the NCP694DSAN25T1G be used with a 1.8 V enable signal?
Yes, the NCP694DSAN25T1G is fully compatible with 1.8 V GPIOs. Its CE pin has a logic-low threshold (VTH,LOW) of ≤0.4 V and logic-high threshold (VTH,HIGH) of ≥1.0 V, providing >1.4 V noise margin against 1.8 V logic. When CE is pulled to 1.8 V, the device operates normally; when pulled to 0 V or ≤0.4 V, it enters standby with auto-discharge enabled. No level-shifting circuitry is needed.
