Product details
Overview
NCP717CMX150TCG from onsemi is a 300 mA, fixed 1.5 V output low-dropout (LDO) regulator with ultra-low quiescent current (25 µA typ.), 22 µVRMS output noise (100 Hz–100 kHz), and 175 mV typical dropout at 300 mA. It features active output discharge (120 Ω), thermal shutdown, current limiting, and stable operation with only 1 µF ceramic output capacitance - ideal for space-constrained, battery-powered portable electronics requiring clean, precise voltage regulation.
For engineers reviewing the NCP717CMX150TCG datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 1.5 V fixed output, XDFN4 1.0×1.0 mm package, EN-controlled enable/disable with active discharge, ±2% output accuracy over load/line/temperature, and suitability for noise-sensitive RF and medical subsystems where low IQ and high PSRR (70 dB @ 1 kHz) are critical.
Technical Context
The NCP717CMX150TCG employs a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling reverse-current blocking and low dropout performance across its 1.8–5.5 V input range. Its adaptive quiescent current circuitry dynamically reduces ground current to 25 µA at no-load while maintaining regulation, optimizing battery life in standby modes.
It integrates an internal bandgap reference, error amplifier, MOSFET driver with current limit, thermal shutdown logic, and an enable-controlled active discharge path (120 Ω) - confirmed exclusive to "C"-suffix variants like NCP717CMX150TCG per datasheet Section "PIN FUNCTION DESCRIPTION" and "APPLICATIONS INFORMATION".
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5 V ±2% over load/line/temperature - ensures stable core or I/O rail for low-voltage microcontrollers and sensors. |
| Max Output Current | 300 mA continuous - supports moderate-power peripherals such as Bluetooth transceivers or display drivers without external heatsinking. |
| Quiescent Current | 25 µA typical at no-load - extends battery runtime in always-on wearable or IoT edge nodes. |
| Dropout Voltage | 175 mV typical at 300 mA - enables operation down to ~1.675 V input, compatible with single-cell Li-ion or Li-poly discharged states. |
| Output Noise | 22 µVRMS (100 Hz–100 kHz) - meets stringent noise requirements for RF front-ends, ADC references, and precision analog signal chains. |
| PSRR | 70 dB at 1 kHz - suppresses switching regulator ripple and digital supply noise before sensitive analog stages. |
| Enable Threshold | VEN_HI = 0.9 V, VEN_LO = 0.4 V - compatible with standard GPIO logic levels and provides 56 mV hysteresis to reject EN pin noise. |
| Active Discharge | 120 Ω pull-down (C-version only) - rapidly discharges output during shutdown, preventing floating voltages in multi-rail systems. |
Pinout & Package
XDFN4 1.0 × 1.0 mm, 0.65 mm pitch, exposed pad (EPAD) thermally connected to GND - optimized for minimal PCB area and efficient heat dissipation in dense portable layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - OUT | Regulated output | Delivers stable 1.5 V; requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability and transient response. |
| 2 - GND | Power ground | Main return path; EPAD must be soldered directly to large GND copper plane for thermal and electrical integrity. |
| 3 - EN | Enable control input | Logic-high (>0.9 V) enables regulator; logic-low (<0.4 V) disables it and activates 120 Ω output discharge. |
| 4 - IN | Input supply | Accepts 1.8–5.5 V; requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor close to pin to suppress input ripple and EMI. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low IQ | 25 µA typ. at no-load - enables >1-year battery life in coin-cell-powered sensors with periodic wake-up. |
| Low-noise regulation | 22 µVRMS output noise - eliminates need for post-LDO filtering in audio codec or RF synthesizer power rails. |
| Active output discharge | 120 Ω internal pull-down (C-version only) - prevents unintended biasing of downstream circuitry during power sequencing. |
| Stable with small capacitors | Guaranteed stability with 1 µF ceramic COUT - reduces BOM count and board space vs. legacy LDOs requiring 10–22 µF tantalum. |
| Robust protection suite | Thermal shutdown (160°C), current limit (379 mA typ.), and short-circuit immunity - eliminates need for external fault management in consumer designs. |

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the NCP717CMX150TCG over temperature and load?
The NCP717CMX150TCG maintains ±2% output voltage accuracy across −40°C to +125°C junction temperature, full 0–300 mA load range, and input voltage from VOUT(nom)+0.5 V to 5.5 V. This is verified in the Electrical Characteristics table (page 3) and confirmed by output voltage vs. temperature plots (Figures 1–5) showing ≤30 mV deviation for 1.5 V output under worst-case conditions.
Does the NCP717CMX150TCG support active output discharge, and how does it work?
Yes - the "C" suffix in NCP717CMX150TCG explicitly denotes active output discharge functionality. When EN is driven below 0.4 V, an internal 120 Ω transistor pulls OUT to GND, discharging external capacitance rapidly. This behavior is documented in the PIN FUNCTION DESCRIPTION section (page 2) and APPLICATIONS INFORMATION (page 13), distinguishing it from "A" (1.2 kΩ) and "B" (no discharge) variants.
What is the minimum output capacitor required for stability with the NCP717CMX150TCG?
The NCP717CMX150TCG is stable with a minimum 1.0 µF ceramic (X5R/X7R) output capacitor, as stated in the Features list (page 1) and APPLICATIONS INFORMATION (page 13). The datasheet confirms stability down to 100 nF effective capacitance, but 1.0 µF is the recommended minimum for full transient and PSRR performance across temperature and voltage ranges.
Can the NCP717CMX150TCG operate from a 1.8 V input supply?
Yes - the NCP717CMX150TCG operates from 1.8 V to 5.5 V input, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables (pages 2–3). At 1.8 V input and 1.5 V output, the dropout margin is 300 mV, well above the 175 mV typical dropout at 300 mA, ensuring reliable regulation even at light loads.
What thermal protection features does the NCP717CMX150TCG include?
The NCP717CMX150TCG incorporates thermal shutdown at 160°C (typ.) with 20°C hysteresis, disabling the regulator until junction temperature falls below ~140°C. This is documented in the Electrical Characteristics table (page 3) and APPLICATIONS INFORMATION (page 13), providing fail-safe protection against sustained overload or inadequate PCB copper area.
