Product details
Overview
NCV8606MN15T2G from onsemi is an automotive-grade 1.5 V fixed-output LDO regulator with enable pin, delivering up to 500 mA output current, 170 mV typical dropout at 500 mA, ±2% output voltage tolerance over −40°C to 125°C, and 62 dB PSRR at 120 Hz - designed for battery-powered instrumentation and automotive infotainment power rails.
For engineers reviewing the NCV8606MN15T2G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical specs, DFN6 package layout, thermal shutdown behavior, enable timing (12 µs), and real-world substitution guidance for AEC-Q100-compliant low-noise 1.5 V supply design.
Technical Context
The NCV8606MN15T2G integrates a PMOS pass transistor with internal current limiting (675 mA), thermal shutdown (175°C), and an active-high enable input that controls regulator activation without external circuitry. Its ground current remains stable at 145–180 µA across load (1–500 mA) and temperature (−40°C to 125°C), independent of output loading.
It achieves low-noise operation (50 µVRMS, 10 Hz–100 kHz) without bypass capacitors and maintains high PSRR (62 dB @ 120 Hz, 55 dB @ 1 kHz) due to its CMOS architecture and optimized internal compensation - enabling clean power delivery in noise-sensitive analog and RF subsystems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5 V ±2% over −40°C to 125°C - ensures stable core logic or sensor bias under automotive thermal cycling. |
| Max Output Current | 500 mA continuous - supports multi-rail microcontrollers or display drivers without derating in compact layouts. |
| Dropout Voltage | 170 mV typical at 500 mA - enables operation from 1.67 V input, critical for single-cell LiFePO₄ or aging battery systems. |
| PSRR | 62 dB @ 120 Hz - suppresses ripple from switching pre-regulators feeding downstream ADCs or PLLs. |
| Noise Voltage | 50 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz) - eliminates need for external noise-reduction capacitors, reducing BOM count and board space. |
| Enable Threshold | VTH(HI) = 0.9 V, VTH(LO) = 0.4 V - compatible with 1.8 V/3.3 V GPIOs and robust against I/O noise in vehicle ECUs. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 175°C with 10°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload or poor heatsinking in sealed enclosures. |
Pinout & Package
NCV8606MN15T2G is housed in a thermally enhanced DFN6 3.0×3.3 mm package (Case 506AX) with exposed pad tied to GND for improved thermal dissipation (RJA = 75°C/W on 645 mm² copper).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 6 | Vin | Input power supply (1.5–6.0 V); pins must be externally shorted for full 500 mA capability. |
| 2 | GND | Power ground reference and thermal path via exposed pad - requires solid copper fill beneath package. |
| 3 | EN | Active-high enable input; drives regulator ON when ≥0.9 V, OFF when ≤0.4 V; 0.1 µA disable current. |
| 4 | Vout | Regulated 1.5 V output; connects directly to load and output capacitor (≥1 µF ceramic). |
| 5 | SENSE/ADJ | Output voltage sense node; for fixed versions, tied directly to Vout capacitor - sets feedback loop stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Grade 1 (−40°C to +125°C ambient) - certified for engine bay and ADAS ECU power stages. |
| Low ground current | 145–180 µA across full load and temperature range - minimizes quiescent drain in always-on vehicle modules. |
| Enhanced ESD protection | 4 kV HBM, 200 V MM - withstands handling and in-vehicle transients without external TVS. |
| No minimum load requirement | Stable regulation down to 0 mA - eliminates need for bleeder resistors in low-power sleep modes. |
| Fast enable response | 12 µs enable time (1.5 V output) - supports rapid power sequencing in multi-rail automotive processors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV73315PDBVR | Lower max current (300 mA), higher dropout (250 mV @ 300 mA), no AEC-Q100 qualification. | Suitable for consumer portable gear but not automotive ECUs requiring PPAP or extended temperature operation. | Select only for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where 300 mA suffices and thermal margin is ample. |
| NCP114AMX15T2G | Same 1.5 V fixed output, 500 mA rating, and DFN6 package, but lacks enable pin and has lower PSRR (50 dB @ 120 Hz). | Acceptable for always-on systems but cannot support power sequencing or low-power sleep modes requiring controlled enable. | Choose when enable functionality is unnecessary and PSRR > 60 dB is not required for signal integrity. |
Compared with TLV73315PDBVR and NCP114AMX15T2G, the NCV8606MN15T2G uniquely combines AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, 500 mA capability with 170 mV dropout, and 62 dB PSRR - making it the only option for thermally demanding, safety-critical 1.5 V rail regulation in automotive and industrial edge nodes.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for the NCV8606MN15T2G?
The NCV8606MN15T2G supports an absolute maximum input voltage of 6.5 V, with recommended operating range from 1.5 V to 6.0 V. Operation below 1.5 V is prohibited per datasheet specifications, as minimum input must satisfy Vin ≥ (Vout + VDO) or 1.5 V - whichever is higher. At 500 mA load, VDO is 170 mV, so minimum valid Vin is 1.67 V for stable 1.5 V output.
Does the NCV8606MN15T2G require an external resistor divider for 1.5 V output?
No, the NCV8606MN15T2G is a fixed-output variant - its 1.5 V regulation is internally set and does not require external resistors. Pin 5 (SENSE/ADJ) must be connected directly to the output capacitor (Cout), as shown in Figure 2 of the datasheet. External dividers apply only to adjustable versions like NCV8606MNADJT2G.
How does the enable pin function on the NCV8606MN15T2G?
The EN pin (Pin 3) is active-high: the NCV8606MN15T2G powers up when EN ≥ 0.9 V and shuts down when EN ≤ 0.4 V. During shutdown, ground current drops to ≤1 µA. Enable timing is 12 µs (from EN rise to 90% Vout), and the pin tolerates input voltages from −0.3 V to 6.5 V - allowing direct connection to 1.8 V or 3.3 V microcontroller GPIOs.
Is the NCV8606MN15T2G compatible with ceramic output capacitors?
Yes, the NCV8606MN15T2G is fully stable with ceramic output capacitors ≥1.0 µF and requires no minimum ESR. The datasheet validates performance using Murata GRM219R71E105K (1 µF, 25 V, X7R) and confirms improved transient response with larger values (e.g., 10 µF GRM21BR71A106K). No tantalum or electrolytic caps are needed.
What thermal derating applies to the NCV8606MN15T2G at 105°C ambient?
At TA = 105°C, the NCV8606MN15T2G's maximum power dissipation is reduced to ~0.6 W (calculated via PDMAX = (TJ(MAX) − TA) / RJA = (150 − 105) / 75). With 1.5 V output and 500 mA load, Vin must be limited to ≤2.7 V to stay within this limit - ensuring junction temperature remains below 150°C even in high-ambient industrial or under-hood environments.
