Product details
Overview
NCP731ADN330R2G from onsemi is a fixed-output 3.3 V, 150 mA low-noise LDO regulator with 8 µVRMS noise (10 Hz–100 kHz), 290 mV typical dropout at full load, and 48 µA quiescent current. It operates from 2.7 V to 38 V input and delivers high-precision voltage rails for analog signal chains in op-amps, ADCs, and audio systems.
For engineers reviewing the NCP731ADN330R2G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include ultra-low noise performance, wide VIN range compatibility, thermal shutdown protection, soft-start programmability, and stable operation with 1 µF ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The NCP731ADN330R2G integrates a CMOS pass transistor with internal reference (1.2 V), UVLO (2.55 V typ.), and precision error amplifier. Its architecture supports fast transient response via optional feed-forward capacitor (CFF) and programmable soft-start (CSS) to control inrush current and output ramp rate.
It features dual protection: over-current limiting (295 mA typ.) and thermal shutdown (170 °C typ., 10 °C hysteresis). The device remains stable across −40 °C to +125 °C junction temperature with ±0.6% output accuracy at 25 °C and ±1.5% over full temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3 V ±0.6% at 25 °C; ±1.5% over −40 °C to +125 °C - ensures stable biasing for precision analog ICs |
| Max Output Current | 150 mA continuous - sufficient for rail supply of multiple op-amps or small-signal ADCs |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 38 V - supports wide-input industrial, automotive, and post-DC/DC applications |
| Output Noise | 8 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz) - enables clean power for noise-sensitive analog circuits |
| Quiescent Current | 48 µA typ. - minimizes standby power in battery-backed instrumentation |
| Dropout Voltage | 230 mV typ. at 150 mA - allows regulation down to VIN = 3.53 V while maintaining 3.3 V output |
| PSRR | 80 dB at 10 Hz, 42 dB at 100 kHz - suppresses ripple from upstream switching converters |
Pinout & Package
Package: Micro-8 EP (3 mm × 3 mm, 0.5 mm pitch, exposed pad), case 846AT - thermally optimized for high-power-density PCB layouts with low RθJB = 16 °C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: OUT | LDO regulated output | Delivers stable 3.3 V; requires local 1 µF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability |
| 2: ADJ/FF | Feed-forward capacitor terminal (FIX version) | Connect CFF (e.g., 10 nF) to OUT to improve PSRR and reduce noise; left open if not used |
| 3, 7: NC | No-connect terminals | Not internally bonded; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout best practice |
| 4: GND | Power ground reference | Primary return path; connects to EPAD for thermal and electrical integrity |
| 5: EN | Enable control input | Active-high logic (VEN > 0.9 V); no internal pull-up; tie to IN if always enabled |
| 6: SS | Soft-start timing input | Charge CSS (e.g., 10 nF) to set startup time (~14 ms); floating = fast start (~0.5 ms) |
| 8: IN | Input power supply | Accepts 2.7–38 V; requires ≥1 µF ceramic input capacitor close to pin |
| EP: EPAD | Exposed thermal pad | Mandatory connection to GND plane for thermal dissipation and EMI reduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low noise regulation | 8 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz) - preserves SNR in precision analog front-ends without external filtering |
| Wide input voltage support | 2.7 V to 38 V - eliminates need for pre-regulation in 24 V industrial or 36 V automotive systems |
| Programmable soft-start | Startup time adjustable from 0.5 ms to >100 ms via CSS capacitor - prevents inrush-induced rail collapse |
| Stable with minimal capacitance | Guaranteed stability with 1 µF ceramic COUT - reduces BOM count and board area vs. legacy LDOs requiring ≥10 µF |
| Integrated protections | Thermal shutdown (170 °C) and current limiting (295 mA) - enables robust operation without external circuitry |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV70733PDQNR | Lower max input (5.5 V), lower noise (5.5 µVRMS), smaller 1.5 mm × 1.5 mm DQN package | Only suitable for ≤5.5 V systems; cannot replace NCP731ADN330R2G in 24 V industrial applications | Select when ultra-low noise and space-constrained PCBs outweigh input voltage requirements |
| MCP1826-3302E/DB | Higher quiescent current (120 µA), wider dropout (400 mV @ 150 mA), same 3.3 V fixed output | Less efficient under high VIN–VOUT differential; higher thermal stress in compact enclosures | Choose only if onsemi supply chain constraints require second-source availability |
Compared with TLV70733PDQNR and MCP1826-3302E/DB, the NCP731ADN330R2G uniquely combines 38 V input tolerance, 8 µVRMS noise, and 48 µA quiescent current-enabling single-LDO solutions in high-voltage analog systems where alternatives require cascaded regulation or compromise on noise or efficiency.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NCP731ADN330R2G?
The NCP731ADN330R2G supports an absolute maximum input voltage of 40 V, with recommended operating range from 2.7 V to 38 V. This wide VIN capability allows direct use with 24 V industrial buses and 36 V automotive systems without pre-regulation. Exceeding 40 V risks permanent damage per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
Does the NCP731ADN330R2G require external capacitors for stability?
Yes, the NCP731ADN330R2G requires both input (CIN) and output (COUT) ceramic capacitors. A minimum 1 µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor is required at COUT, placed close to the OUT and GND pins. CIN should also be ≥1 µF. Larger COUT values (e.g., 10 µF) improve PSRR and transient response but are not mandatory for basic stability.
How does the soft-start function work on the NCP731ADN330R2G?
The NCP731ADN330R2G uses an external capacitor (CSS) on the SS pin to control startup ramp time. With CSS = 10 nF, typical startup time is 14 ms; with CSS unconnected, it drops to ~0.5 ms. The internal 910 nA charging current linearly ramps the SS pin voltage, which in turn controls the output voltage slew rate-preventing inrush current spikes during power-up.
Is the NCP731ADN330R2G compatible with ceramic output capacitors having low ESR?
Yes-the NCP731ADN330R2G is explicitly designed to remain stable with ceramic output capacitors having ESR as low as 1 mΩ. Unlike older LDOs requiring minimum ESR for phase margin, this device uses an advanced internal compensation scheme that ensures stability across the full 1 µF–1000 µF range and 1–50 mΩ ESR, simplifying capacitor selection and reducing cost.
What protection features are integrated into the NCP731ADN330R2G?
The NCP731ADN330R2G integrates over-current limiting (295 mA typ.), thermal shutdown (170 °C junction threshold with 10 °C hysteresis), and input under-voltage lockout (UVLO at 2.55 V typ.). These functions operate autonomously without external components, protecting both the IC and downstream circuitry during fault conditions such as short circuits or excessive ambient temperature.
