Product details
Overview
NX1117C19Z from NXP Semiconductors is a fixed-output 1.9 V, ±1 % accuracy, low-dropout linear voltage regulator in SOT223 package, delivering up to 1 A output current with thermal shutdown, SOA control, and output current limiting - used for post-regulation in DC-DC converters and USB-powered devices.
For engineers reviewing the NX1117C19Z datasheet, NX1117C19Z pinout, NX1117C19Z application, or NX1117C19Z equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 800 mA (≤1.2 V), quiescent current (5–6 mA), PSRR at 120 Hz (67 dB), line/load regulation (≤4.0 mV), and operation across −40 °C to +125 °C.
Technical Context
The NX1117C19Z implements an internal bandgap reference (1.25 V) and error amplifier to regulate output voltage with feedback via internal resistor divider. Its Safe Operating Area (SOA) control dynamically limits output current under high VIN−VOUT conditions to prevent thermal runaway.
It requires no minimum load for regulation, supports input voltages up to 20 V, and maintains stable operation with 680 nF input/output capacitors in series with 1 Ω ESR - enabling use with low-ESR ceramic capacitors without external compensation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output voltage | 1.900 V (±1 % over −40 °C to +125 °C; no minimum load required) |
| Max output current | 1 A (internally limited; SOA protection active above ~1.4 V VIN−VOUT) |
| Dropout voltage | 1.2 V max at 800 mA (enables regulation with VIN as low as 3.1 V) |
| Quiescent current | 5–6 mA (stable across full input range; enables low-power standby modes) |
| PSRR @ 120 Hz | 67 dB (suppresses ripple from upstream switching converters) |
| Line regulation | ≤4.0 mV (input variation 3.3–11.9 V; ensures stable rail under supply transients) |
| Load regulation | ≤6 mV (0–800 mA load step; critical for digital logic and analog sensor rails) |
Pinout & Package
SOT223 (SC-73) plastic surface-mount package with integrated heat sink; 4-pin configuration where pins 2 and 4 are internally connected to VOUT for enhanced thermal performance and current handling.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference and thermal path; connects to exposed pad on PCB for heatsinking |
| 2 | VOUT | Main regulated output; electrically tied to pin 4 for parallel current delivery |
| 3 | VIN | Unregulated input (up to 20 V); requires local 680 nF bypass capacitor |
| 4 | VOUT | Secondary output connection; shares same node as pin 2 to reduce trace resistance and improve thermal dissipation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±1 % output accuracy | Ensures tight tolerance for 1.9 V logic rails (e.g., low-voltage microcontrollers, FPGAs) |
| Thermal shutdown | Activates at 135 °C junction temperature to prevent permanent damage during overload or poor heatsinking |
| No minimum load requirement | Enables stable regulation even at zero load - ideal for always-on system monitors and sleep-mode circuits |
| SOA control | Dynamically reduces current limit as VIN−VOUT increases, preventing thermal runaway in high-input applications |
| Wide input range (up to 20 V) | Supports direct connection to 12 V or 19 V adapter inputs without pre-regulation stage |
Applications
| Post Regulator for DC-DC Converters | Battery-Powered USB Devices |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-dropout linear regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV1117-19CDCYR | ±2 % output accuracy; 800 mA max output; higher dropout (1.3 V @ 800 mA) | Lower precision and current capability; suitable only for non-critical 1.9 V rails | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs accuracy and thermal margin requirements |
| LD1117S19TR | ±2 % accuracy; 800 mA max; no SOA control; wider quiescent current range (5–10 mA) | Lacks dynamic SOA protection and tighter regulation - risk of thermal failure under high VIN−VOUT | Prefer only in low-input-voltage designs (<6 V) where SOA is not triggered |
Compared with TLV1117-19CDCYR and LD1117S19TR, the NX1117C19Z delivers superior accuracy (±1 % vs. ±2 %), higher current (1 A vs. 800 mA), lower dropout (1.2 V vs. ≥1.3 V), and integrated SOA control - making it optimal for thermally constrained, high-reliability 1.9 V point-of-load applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the NX1117C19Z?
The NX1117C19Z supports a maximum input voltage of 20 V, as specified in its Absolute Maximum Ratings. This allows direct use with common 12 V and 19 V adapter supplies without external pre-regulation, provided thermal design accommodates power dissipation at high VIN−VOUT differentials.
Does the NX1117C19Z require an external capacitor for stability?
Yes, the NX1117C19Z requires a minimum 680 nF output capacitor with ≤1 Ω ESR, as specified in the datasheet. Ceramic capacitors meeting this ESR requirement ensure loop stability and transient response; omitting or undersizing this capacitor risks oscillation or poor load regulation.
How does the SOA control function in the NX1117C19Z?
The SOA control in the NX1117C19Z dynamically reduces the output current limit as the VIN−VOUT differential increases - preventing excessive power dissipation and thermal runaway. At 5 V VIN−VOUT, the current limit drops to ~1.1 A; at 15 V, it falls to ~0.7 A, protecting the device within its safe operating area.
What is the typical PSRR performance of the NX1117C19Z at 120 Hz?
The NX1117C19Z delivers 67 dB PSRR at 120 Hz under standard test conditions (VIN−VOUT = 2.4 V, IOUT = 40 mA). This level of ripple rejection effectively attenuates low-frequency switching artifacts from upstream DC-DC converters, ensuring clean 1.9 V supply for sensitive analog or digital circuitry.
Is a minimum load required for regulation with the NX1117C19Z?
No, the NX1117C19Z requires no minimum load for regulation - a key advantage over many legacy LDOs. It maintains stable 1.9 V output from 0 mA to 1 A, simplifying design for systems with variable or intermittent loads such as sleep-mode peripherals or sensor nodes.
