Product details
Overview
TC1303B-IA0EUN from Microchip Technology is a dual-output power management IC integrating a 500 mA synchronous buck regulator and a 300 mA low-dropout linear regulator (LDO), with power-good monitoring focused on the LDO output. It delivers fixed 1.8 V on VOUT1 and 3.3 V on VOUT2, operates from 2.7–5.5 V input, achieves >90% typical efficiency at heavy load, and features 65 µA total quiescent current. It is designed for portable battery-powered systems requiring sequenced dual-rail supplies.
For engineers reviewing the TC1303B-IA0EUN datasheet, TC1303B-IA0EUN pinout, TC1303B-IA0EUN application, or TC1303B-IA0EUN equivalent, key selection considerations include its LDO-monitored PG output, independent shutdown control per rail, 2.0 MHz fixed-frequency PWM operation, 137 mV typical dropout at 200 mA (VOUT2), and compatibility with 1 µF ceramic output capacitors on both outputs.
Technical Context
The TC1303B-IA0EUN implements a synchronous buck converter with PFM/PWM auto-transition and an internally compensated LDO, both fully integrated with undervoltage lockout (UVLO), overtemperature protection, and short-circuit limiting. Its power-good (PG) signal is a push-pull output actively monitoring only the LDO output (VOUT2) with 94% regulation threshold and 300 ms delay-distinct from TC1303A (buck-monitored) and TC1303C/TC1304 (dual-monitored).
It supports independent enable control: SHDN1 disables the buck regulator while SHDN2 disables the LDO, enabling flexible power sequencing. The buck stage uses a 2.0 MHz fixed-frequency oscillator with typical RDS(on) of 450 mΩ for both high- and low-side MOSFETs, and the LDO maintains ±0.3% output voltage tolerance across -40°C to +125°C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output 1 (Buck) | Fixed 1.8 V @ 500 mA max; 2.0 MHz PWM switching; >90% typical efficiency at full load; 0.5 ms typical startup time |
| Output 2 (LDO) | Fixed 3.3 V @ 300 mA max; 137 mV typical dropout @ 200 mA; ±0.3% output voltage tolerance; 1 µF min ceramic output capacitor |
| Power-Good (PG) | Push-pull output monitoring VOUT2 only; asserts when VOUT2 ≥ 94% of nominal; 300 ms delay; active-high logic compatible with processor reset inputs |
| Quiescent Current | 65 µA typical total device IQ (buck + LDO enabled); 38 µA buck-only IQ; 46 µA LDO-only IQ |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V common input for both VIN1 and VIN2; UVLO threshold 2.55 V (typical) with 200 mV hysteresis |
| Thermal & Protection | -40°C to +125°C operating junction temperature; thermal shutdown at 165°C (10°C hysteresis); output short-circuit and overcurrent protection on both rails |
Pinout & Package
TC1303B-IA0EUN is housed in a 10-pin 3×3 mm DFN package with exposed thermal pad (EP), pin-compatible with the MSOP variant. The exposed pad must be connected to AGND for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | SHDN2 | LDO shutdown control: logic-high (>45% VIN) enables VOUT2; logic-low (<15% VIN) forces LDO off |
| 2 | VIN2 | LDO input supply: connects to same source as VIN1; requires local 4.7 µF input capacitor |
| 3 | VOUT2 | 3.3 V regulated LDO output: requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor to AGND for stability |
| 4 | PG | Push-pull power-good output: indicates VOUT2 regulation status; drives processor RESET directly |
| 5 | AGND | Analog ground reference: dedicated low-noise return path for feedback and regulation circuitry |
| 6 | PGND | Power ground: high-current return for buck switch node (LX); must be routed separately from AGND |
| 7 | LX | Buck switch node: connects to external 4.7 µH inductor; requires low-inductance layout to minimize EMI |
| 8 | VIN1 | Buck input supply: shares input source with VIN2; requires same 4.7 µF input capacitor |
| 9 | SHDN1 | Buck shutdown control: logic-high enables VOUT1; logic-low disables buck regulator independently |
| 10 | VFB1/VOUT1 | Buck feedback/sense: tied directly to 1.8 V output (fixed version); no external divider needed |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Independent dual-rail shutdown | SHDN1 and SHDN2 allow separate control of buck and LDO outputs-enabling precise power sequencing without external logic |
| LDO-monitored power-good | PG pin is push-pull and tracks only VOUT2 regulation (not VOUT1), providing deterministic reset timing for LDO-powered peripherals |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 65 µA total IQ enables >10-year battery life in always-on portable devices with light-load duty cycles |
| Internally compensated design | Eliminates need for external compensation components on either regulator-reducing BOM count and board area |
| Robust protection suite | Integrated UVLO, thermal shutdown (165°C), and output short-circuit protection prevent damage during fault conditions |
Applications
| USB-Powered Portable Instrument | Handheld Medical Device |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output PMIC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TC1303A-IA0EUN | PG monitors buck output (VOUT1) instead of LDO; PG is open-drain, not push-pull | Suitable where processor reset must be tied to core rail stability-not auxiliary bias rail | Select when system reset timing depends on 1.8 V rail settling, not 3.3 V rail |
| TPS65023RGZR | Triple-output (2 buck + 1 LDO); higher IQ (120 µA); 2.25 MHz switching; QFN-24 package | Supports more complex SoC power trees; requires larger PCB area and additional external components | Choose when additional rails or higher integration (e.g., I²C control) are required beyond dual fixed outputs |
Compared with TC1303A-IA0EUN and TPS65023RGZR, TC1303B-IA0EUN uniquely offers LDO-targeted push-pull PG in a minimal 10-pin DFN-optimizing for cost-sensitive, space-constrained applications where 3.3 V rail integrity dictates system readiness.

FAQ
What output voltages does the TC1303B-IA0EUN provide?
The TC1303B-IA0EUN provides fixed 1.8 V on its buck output (VOUT1) and fixed 3.3 V on its LDO output (VOUT2). These values are factory-trimmed and do not require external resistive feedback networks. The part number suffix "IA0EUN" explicitly denotes this 1.8 V / 3.3 V configuration, verified in Microchip's DS21949C datasheet revision C, page 5 (Typical Application Circuits) and page 8 (Electrical Characteristics).
How does the power-good (PG) function operate on the TC1303B-IA0EUN?
The TC1303B-IA0EUN's PG pin is a push-pull output that monitors only the LDO output (VOUT2). It asserts high when VOUT2 reaches ≥94% of its nominal 3.3 V value and holds for a guaranteed 300 ms delay-making it ideal for driving processor RESET inputs. This behavior is specific to the TC1303B variant and differs from TC1303A (buck-monitored, open-drain) and TC1303C/TC1304 (dual-monitored).
Can the TC1303B-IA0EUN be used with a single input supply?
Yes-the TC1303B-IA0EUN is designed for single-supply operation: VIN1 and VIN2 are both rated for 2.7–5.5 V and must be connected to the same input source (e.g., a Li-ion battery or USB 5 V rail). The datasheet mandates short, low-impedance board traces between VIN1 and VIN2 to minimize noise coupling and ensure stable regulation on both outputs.
What is the minimum output capacitance required for stable operation of the TC1303B-IA0EUN?
The TC1303B-IA0EUN requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitance on VOUT2 (LDO output) and ≥4.7 µF ceramic capacitance on VOUT1 (buck output), as specified in the Typical Application Circuits (DS21949C, page 5). These values are mandatory for loop stability and transient response; using smaller or non-ceramic capacitors may cause oscillation or poor load regulation.
Does the TC1303B-IA0EUN support automatic power-mode transitions?
Yes-the buck regulator in TC1303B-IA0EUN automatically transitions between PWM (at heavy loads) and PFM (at light loads) to maintain high efficiency across the full 0–500 mA output range. This transition is seamless and requires no external control or configuration; it is inherent to the IC's internal control architecture, as documented in the Functional Block Diagram (DS21949C, page 3) and Efficiency Curves (pages 11–12).
