Product details
Overview
NCV663SQ18T1G from onsemi is an automotive-grade fixed-output low-dropout linear regulator delivering 1.8 V at up to 100 mA, featuring 2.5 µA typical quiescent current, ±2.0% output voltage accuracy, and operation across −40 °C to +125 °C. It uses a PMOS pass transistor, integrates thermal and current-limit protection, and is designed for battery-powered infotainment systems requiring ultra-low standby power.
For engineers reviewing the NCV663SQ18T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 100 mA (max 500 mV), AEC-Q100 qualification, SC-82AB package compatibility, and absence of enable functionality-critical when replacing NCV662 variants in automotive designs.
Technical Context
The NCV663SQ18T1G implements a PMOS-based LDO architecture with internal voltage reference, error amplifier, and protection circuitry including thermal shutdown and current limiting. It operates without an enable pin-pin 4 is No Connect-distinguishing it from the NCV662 series.
Designed for stable operation with ≥0.1 µF ceramic output capacitance, it achieves 20 mV load regulation (10–100 mA) and 10–20 mV line regulation across input voltages from (VOUT + 1.0 V) to 6.0 V. Its 100 ppm/°C output voltage temperature coefficient ensures stability over its full automotive temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 1.8 V ±2.0% - tightly regulated rail for core logic or low-voltage microcontrollers in automotive modules. |
| Max Output Current | 100 mA - sufficient for powering MCU peripherals, sensors, or small ASICs without external boost stages. |
| Quiescent Current | 2.5 µA typical - enables multi-year battery life in always-on vehicle subsystems like door modules or telematics. |
| Dropout Voltage | 500 mV max at 100 mA - supports regulation down to Vin = 2.3 V, compatible with partially discharged Li-ion or 3.3 V system rails. |
| Operating Temp Range | −40 °C to +125 °C - meets AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements for under-hood and infotainment applications. |
| Input Voltage Range | 1.8 V to 6.0 V - accommodates wide-input automotive supplies while avoiding overvoltage stress on internal PMOS gate. |
| Thermal Protection | Active shutdown at ~160 °C - prevents latch-up or permanent damage during transient overload or poor PCB heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
NCV663SQ18T1G is housed in the SC-82AB (Case 419C) surface-mount package: 2.0 × 1.25 × 0.95 mm, 4-pin, lead-free, micro-miniature footprint optimized for space-constrained automotive PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Power supply ground reference; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling and ensure regulation accuracy. |
| 2 | Vin | Input supply pin; accepts 1.8–6.0 V; requires local 1.0 µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| 3 | Vout | Regulated 1.8 V output; stable with ≥0.1 µF ceramic capacitor; supports fast load transients up to 30 mA step change. |
| 4 | N/C | No internal connection; must remain unconnected-no pull-up, pull-down, or routing to avoid parasitic coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low IQ | 2.5 µA typical enables >10-year battery life in always-on automotive modules such as keyless entry receivers. |
| AEC-Q100 Qualified | Grade 1 qualification (−40 °C to +125 °C) confirms reliability for engine bay, dashboard, and infotainment ECU deployment. |
| PMOS Pass Device | Eliminates need for external bias supply; enables low dropout and stable operation with ceramic output capacitors ≥0.1 µF. |
| Integrated Protection | Thermal shutdown and current limit prevent failure during short-circuit events or sustained overload without external components. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-dropout regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| NCV662SQ18T1G | Includes active-high Enable pin (pin 4); otherwise identical electrical specs and package. | Required where system-level power sequencing or deep-sleep control is needed. | Select NCV662SQ18T1G only if ON/OFF control is mandatory; NCV663SQ18T1G simplifies layout by eliminating enable circuitry. |
| TLV73318PDBVR | Lower IQ (350 nA), higher max current (300 mA), but rated only to +85 °C ambient and not AEC-Q100 qualified. | Suitable for industrial or consumer portable devices-not automotive environments. | Choose TLV73318PDBVR for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs needing higher current; avoid for AEC-Q100-requiring applications. |
Compared with NCV662SQ18T1G, the NCV663SQ18T1G removes enable functionality to reduce complexity and cost in fixed-always-on systems; compared with TLV73318PDBVR, it trades ultra-low IQ for guaranteed automotive qualification and thermal robustness.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NCV663SQ18T1G?
The NCV663SQ18T1G has a maximum input voltage rating of 6.0 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Exceeding this voltage-even momentarily-may cause permanent damage. The device is designed to operate reliably with input voltages ranging from 1.8 V (equal to its output) up to 6.0 V, making it compatible with common automotive supply rails including 5 V and 3.3 V domains. Always verify input transient suppression in vehicle environments.
Does the NCV663SQ18T1G include an enable function?
No, the NCV663SQ18T1G does not include an enable function. Pin 4 is designated N/C (No Connection) per the datasheet pin function description and typical application diagram. This distinguishes it from the NCV662SQ18T1G, which uses pin 4 as an active-high Enable input. For designs requiring ON/OFF control, the NCV662SQ18T1G or alternative regulators with enable capability must be selected instead of the NCV663SQ18T1G.
What output capacitor value is required for stable operation of the NCV663SQ18T1G?
The NCV663SQ18T1G requires a minimum output capacitor of 0.1 µF, and it is stable with ceramic capacitors across a wide ESR range (a few mΩ to 10 Ω). Unlike older LDOs, it does not require a specific ESR for stability. A 1.0 µF ceramic capacitor is recommended for optimal load transient response, especially in automotive applications with dynamic current demands. Larger values improve noise rejection but are not necessary for basic regulation.
Is the NCV663SQ18T1G qualified for automotive use?
Yes, the NCV663SQ18T1G is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 1) and PPAP capable, with an operating ambient temperature range of −40 °C to +125 °C. The "NCV" prefix explicitly denotes automotive and other applications requiring unique site and control change requirements. It includes integrated thermal shutdown and current limiting, and is manufactured in onsemi's certified automotive production facilities-making it suitable for infotainment, BCM, and ADAS applications.
What is the dropout voltage specification for the NCV663SQ18T1G at full load?
The dropout voltage for the NCV663SQ18T1G is specified as 500 mV maximum at 100 mA output current and −40 °C to +125 °C ambient temperature, measured when VOUT drops 3.0% below nominal (i.e., to 1.746 V). At 25 °C, typical dropout is 300 mV. This allows the device to maintain regulation with input as low as 2.3 V, supporting operation from partially discharged batteries or cascaded regulator topologies.
