Product details
Overview
SC33063ADR2G from onsemi is a monolithic DC-DC converter controller IC designed for step-down (buck), step-up (boost), and voltage-inverting applications. It integrates a temperature-compensated 1.25 V reference, comparator, oscillator with active current limiting, driver, and 1.5 A high-current output switch. It operates from 3.0 V to 40 V input and supports up to 100 kHz switching frequency-used in compact power supplies for industrial sensors and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the SC33063ADR2G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its adjustable output voltage capability, internal 2% precision reference, SOIC-8 Pb-free package, and −40°C to +85°C operating ambient range for ruggedized embedded designs.
Technical Context
The SC33063ADR2G implements a fixed-frequency, current-mode control architecture using an internal oscillator whose timing is set by an external capacitor (CT). Its Darlington-connected output switch delivers up to 1.5 A peak current with typical saturation voltage of 1.0 V at 1.0 A, enabling efficient low-component-count converters without external MOSFETs.
It features a precision 1.25 V ±2% bandgap reference referenced to the inverting comparator input (Pin 5), allowing stable feedback regulation across input and load variations. The current-limit sense threshold is fixed at 300 mV (typ), directly setting peak switch current via an external sense resistor (Rsc).

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage supported by the SC33063ADR2G?
The SC33063ADR2G supports a maximum input voltage of 40 V DC, as specified in its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This allows direct operation from 24 V industrial rails or 36 V nominal battery systems without pre-regulation. Exceeding 40 V may damage the device, and design margins should account for transients per application requirements.
Does the SC33063ADR2G require an external MOSFET for 1.5 A output current?
No, the SC33063ADR2G integrates a Darlington-connected bipolar output switch rated for 1.5 A peak current, eliminating the need for an external MOSFET in most ≤1.5 A applications. External transistors are only required when peak current exceeds 1.5 A, using Pin 7 (Driver Collector) per Figures 10–14 in the datasheet.
What is the function of Pin 5 on the SC33063ADR2G?
Pin 5 is the comparator's inverting input, which connects to the feedback resistor divider from the output. It compares the divided output voltage against the internal 1.25 V reference to regulate output voltage. Its voltage must remain within −0.3 V to +40 V, and it draws negligible bias current (−20 nA typ), enabling high-impedance feedback networks.
Can the SC33063ADR2G be used in a voltage-inverting configuration?
Yes, the SC33063ADR2G is explicitly designed for voltage-inverting (buck-boost) operation, as shown in Figure 13 of the datasheet. In this mode, Pin 1 (Switch Collector) connects to the inductor, Pin 2 (Switch Emitter) to ground, and the output is taken from the inductor–diode junction with polarity inversion relative to input.
What package type and lead finish does the SC33063ADR2G use?
The SC33063ADR2G uses an SOIC-8 package (Case 751-07), measuring 5.0 mm × 4.0 mm with 1.27 mm lead pitch. It features a Pb-free (RoHS-compliant) finish, indicated by the "G" suffix in the part number, and is supplied in tape-and-reel format (2500 units per reel).
