Product details
Overview
TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR 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 of both outputs, 65 µA typical quiescent current, and operation from -40°C to +125°C junction temperature - used in portable medical instruments and USB-powered devices requiring tightly regulated dual-rail supplies.
For engineers reviewing the TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR datasheet, TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR pinout, TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR application, or TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, validated package mapping, confirmed dual-output sequencing behavior, real-world thermal performance data, and precise alternative selection guidance for battery-powered embedded systems.
Technical Context
The TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR implements independent shutdown control for buck (SHDN1) and LDO (SHDN2) sections, enabling flexible power sequencing without external logic. Its buck stage operates at a fixed 2.0 MHz PWM frequency under heavy load and transitions automatically to PFM mode at light loads to maintain ultra-low IQ.
Power-good (PG) is an open-drain output with 300 ms delay that monitors regulation status of both VOUT1 and VOUT2 simultaneously - unlike TC1303A (buck-only) or TC1303B (LDO-only) variants - and asserts when either output falls below 92% or rises above 96% of nominal voltage, with ±30 ppm/°C threshold tempco.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Buck Output Current | 500 mA max - supports processor core rails with minimal external components |
| LDO Output Current | 300 mA max - powers I/O, memory, or analog circuitry with 137 mV dropout @200 mA |
| Total Quiescent Current | 65 µA typical - enables >1-year battery life in always-on portable applications |
| Switching Frequency | 2.0 MHz fixed (1.6–2.4 MHz range) - allows use of compact 4.7 µH inductors and reduces EMI filtering burden |
| Operating Temp Range | -40°C to +125°C junction - qualified for automotive cabin and industrial edge environments |
| Power-Good Monitoring | Monitors both VOUT1 and VOUT2 - provides single reset signal for multi-rail SoCs without external OR-ing logic |
| Package | 10-pin 3×3 mm DFN - exposes thermal pad (EP) tied to AGND for 41°C/W θJA on 4-layer board |
Pinout & Package
TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR is housed in a 10-lead 3×3 mm DFN package with exposed thermal pad (EP) connected to AGND. Pin numbering follows standard DFN orientation (pin 1 top-left, counterclockwise).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 SHDN2 | LDO shutdown input | Active-high logic input (>45% VIN); controls LDO enable independently of buck section |
| 2 VIN2 | LDO input supply | Accepts 2.7–5.5 V; must be short-traced to VIN1 to minimize noise coupling into LDO path |
| 3 VOUT2 | LDO regulated output | Delivers fixed or adjustable voltage (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V); requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor to AGND |
| 4 PG | Power-good indicator | Open-drain output asserting low when both VOUT1 and VOUT2 are within ±4% regulation window |
| 5 AGND | Analog ground reference | Must connect to clean analog ground plane; separates noise-sensitive feedback paths from PGND |
| 6 PGND | Power ground return | High-current return for buck switch node; separate from AGND to prevent switching noise injection |
| 7 LX | Buck switch node | Connects to external inductor; carries high di/dt; requires tight layout and Kelvin connection to PGND |
| 8 VIN1 | Buck input supply | Accepts 2.7–5.5 V; shares input source with VIN2 per datasheet Note 8 |
| 9 SHDN1 | Buck shutdown input | Active-high logic input (>45% VIN); enables/disables buck regulator independently |
| 10 VFB1/VOUT1 | Buck feedback or output | Configured as VOUT1 for fixed-output versions; connects to resistor divider for adjustable versions (0.8–4.5 V) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Independent buck/LDO shutdown | Enables staggered power-up/down sequences without external timing circuitry |
| Automatic PWM-to-PFM transition | Maintains >85% efficiency at 1 mA load while holding IQ ≤65 µA |
| Internally compensated regulators | Eliminates need for external compensation networks - reduces BOM count and layout sensitivity |
| Low-noise buck architecture | 1.8 µV/√Hz output noise (≤1 kHz) and 62 dB PSRR at 100 Hz support noise-sensitive analog circuits |
| Dual-output power-good monitoring | Single PG signal confirms stability of both rails - simplifies system reset logic for dual-voltage SoCs |
Applications
| Portable Medical Instruments | USB-Powered Devices |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Battery-powered glucose meters and handheld ultrasound probes requiring isolated, low-noise analog rails and stable digital core voltage. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-output PMIC delivering 1.8 V (buck) for MCU core and 3.3 V (LDO) for ADC/reference circuitry with simultaneous PG assertion. Use Value: 137 mV LDO dropout preserves battery runtime; 2.0 MHz switching minimizes inductor size in space-constrained enclosures. | Use Scenario: USB bus-powered test adapters and field-programmable logic modules drawing up to 500 mA from 5 V USB sources. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary voltage translator generating 3.3 V (LDO) for I/O and 1.2 V (buck) for FPGA core from unregulated 4.75–5.25 V USB input. Use Value: 90%+ buck efficiency at full load reduces thermal stress; PG output synchronizes FPGA configuration with stable rail establishment. |
| Cellular Phones | Handheld PDAs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output PMIC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1826-3302E/DB | Single 300 mA LDO only; no buck stage or PG monitoring | Requires external buck converter for dual-rail designs; lacks integrated power-good logic | Select only if existing design already includes discrete buck regulator and needs LDO upgrade |
| TPS65023RSBR | Triple-output (2 buck + 1 LDO); 2.25 MHz switching; 12-pin QFN; higher IQ (85 µA) | Supports more complex SoC power trees but increases layout area and cost | Choose when system requires third rail (e.g., DDR termination) and can accommodate larger footprint |
Compared with MCP1826-3302E/DB and TPS65023RSBR, TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR uniquely integrates buck+LDO+PG in a 3×3 mm DFN with lowest quiescent current (65 µA), making it optimal for space- and battery-limited dual-rail applications where third rail is unnecessary.

FAQ
What output voltages does TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR support?
TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR supports fixed-output LDO voltages of 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V, and a buck output configurable from 0.8 V to 4.5 V via external feedback resistors. The ZP0EUNTR variant is factory-set to 3.3 V for VOUT2 (LDO) and 1.8 V for VOUT1 (buck), as indicated by its part number suffix per Microchip's ordering guide.
How does the power-good (PG) function operate on TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR?
TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR's PG pin is an open-drain output that monitors both VOUT1 and VOUT2 simultaneously. It asserts low when either output falls below 92% of nominal voltage or rises above 96%, with a 300 ms delay to avoid false resets during transient conditions - distinct from TC1303A (buck-only) and TC1303B (LDO-only) variants.
Can TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR operate from a single 3.7 V Li-ion cell?
Yes, TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR supports input voltages from 2.7 V to 5.5 V, making it compatible with single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2 V) and USB 5 V sources. Its 137 mV LDO dropout at 200 mA and 280 mV buck dropout at 500 mA ensure regulation across the full discharge curve without brownout.
What thermal performance can be expected from TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR in a 3×3 mm DFN package?
In a typical 4-layer PCB with internal ground plane and two vias under the exposed pad, TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR achieves 41°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA). At full 500 mA buck + 300 mA LDO load, junction temperature rise remains within safe limits up to +85°C ambient - validated per DS21949C-page 10 thermal specs.
Is TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR pin-compatible with other TC1303 variants?
Yes, all TC1303A/B/C and TC1304 variants share identical 10-pin DFN and MSOP footprints and pinouts. However, functional differences exist: TC1303C-ZP0EUNTR monitors both outputs for PG, while TC1303A monitors only VOUT1 and TC1303B only VOUT2 - requiring firmware or schematic review when substituting.
