Product details
Overview
NCP703SN28T1G from onsemi is a 300 mA ultra-low-noise, ultra-low-quiescent-current LDO voltage regulator delivering 2.8 V output with ±2% accuracy, 180 mV typical dropout at full load, 13 µVRMS noise (100 Hz–100 kHz), and 68 dB PSRR at 1 kHz-designed for powering RF power amplifiers in satellite radios and infotainment systems.
For engineers reviewing the NCP703SN28T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its fixed 2.8 V output, TSOP-5 package compatibility, 12 µA quiescent current at no load, active output discharge, and stability with only a 1 µF ceramic output capacitor.
Technical Context
The NCP703SN28T1G employs a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling low dropout and reverse-current protection via an inherent body diode. Its adaptive ground current management dynamically reduces IQ to 12 µA under light-load conditions while maintaining fast transient response.
Internal circuitry includes undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with 1.6 V turn-on threshold and 100 mV hysteresis, thermal shutdown at 160°C with 20°C hysteresis, and integrated soft-start limiting inrush current. The EN pin provides logic-level control with 0.9 V high-threshold and 0.4 V low-threshold, plus built-in 110 nA pull-down.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.8 V ±2% over load/line/temperature - ensures stable biasing for RF PA stages without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 300 mA continuous - sufficient to drive multi-stage RF front-ends or precision analog sensor chains. |
| Quiescent Current | 12 µA typ. at IOUT = 0 mA - extends battery life in always-on portable medical or GPS devices. |
| Output Noise | 13 µVRMS (100 Hz–100 kHz) - eliminates need for external noise-bypass capacitors in sensitive RF supply rails. |
| PSRR | 68 dB at 1 kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC-DC converters feeding mixed-signal SoCs. |
| Dropout Voltage | 180 mV typ. at 300 mA - enables operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0 V min) down to 2.98 V under full load. |
| Enable Threshold | VEN_HI = 0.9 V, VEN_LO = 0.4 V - compatible with 1.8 V and 3.3 V GPIOs without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TSOP-5 (Case 483), 3.00 × 1.50 × 0.95 mm, Pb-free, moisture-sensitive level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - IN | Input voltage supply | Accepts 2.0–5.5 V input; requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability and noise filtering. |
| 2 - EN | Enable control input | Logic-high (>0.9 V) enables regulation; logic-low (<0.4 V) disables output and activates 320 Ω active discharge path to GND. |
| 3 - N/C | No-connect terminal | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or grounded only for thermal improvement (not electrically required). |
| 4 - GND | Power ground reference | Die ground tied to lead frame; soldered to PCB copper pour for optimal thermal dissipation (JL = 129°C/W). |
| 5 - OUT | Regulated output | Delivers 2.8 V ±2%; requires ≥1 µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low noise without bypass cap | 13 µVRMS noise achieved internally - removes BOM cost and board space for external CNR, simplifying layout for RF sections. |
| Active output discharge | 320 Ω internal discharge path pulls VOUT to GND in <1 ms after disable - prevents back-powering of downstream circuitry during power sequencing. |
| Dynamic IQ management | IQ drops to 12 µA at zero load and scales with output current - balances battery runtime and transient performance in portable designs. |
| Stable with 1 µF ceramic COUT | Guaranteed stability down to 0.1 µF effective capacitance - supports compact 0402 MLCCs even under DC bias derating. |
| Integrated soft-start | Monotonic VOUT ramp with ~200 µs turn-on time - prevents inrush-induced bus droop in multi-rail systems sharing input sources. |
Applications

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the NCP703SN28T1G over temperature and load?
The NCP703SN28T1G maintains ±2% output voltage accuracy across −40°C to +125°C junction temperature, full 0–300 mA load range, and input voltage from VOUT + 0.5 V to 5.5 V. This is verified per Table 4 in the datasheet and ensures reliable biasing for RF PAs and precision ADCs without external trimming.
Does the NCP703SN28T1G require an external noise-bypass capacitor?
No, the NCP703SN28T1G achieves 13 µVRMS output noise (100 Hz–100 kHz) without any external noise-reduction capacitor. Its internal design eliminates the need for a CNR pin or additional 10 nF–100 nF ceramic capacitor, reducing BOM count and PCB area in space-constrained RF layouts.
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NCP703SN28T1G?
The absolute maximum input voltage for the NCP703SN28T1G is 6 V, but the recommended operating range is 2.0 V to 5.5 V per Table 4. Exceeding 6 V risks permanent damage; operation above 5.5 V voids parametric guarantees and may trigger internal UVLO or thermal shutdown unpredictably.
How does the EN pin function on the NCP703SN28T1G?
The EN pin on the NCP703SN28T1G enables logic-controlled on/off functionality: driving EN >0.9 V turns on regulation; driving EN <0.4 V disables output and activates the 320 Ω active discharge path. An internal 110 nA pull-down ensures default-off state if left unconnected.
Can the NCP703SN28T1G be used with a 0402-size 1 µF ceramic output capacitor?
Yes, the NCP703SN28T1G is designed to remain stable with minimum effective output capacitance of 0.1 µF, accommodating DC-bias derating of small-case MLCCs like 0402 X7R. Datasheet Figure 49 confirms usable capacitance >0.1 µF at 2.8 V bias, making 0402 1 µF capacitors fully compliant.
