Product details
Overview
TC1313-ZA0EMFTR 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) in a single 10-pin DFN package. It delivers adjustable (0.8–4.5 V) or fixed (0.8/1.2/1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V) buck output and fixed LDO outputs (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V), with total quiescent current of 57 µA typical, 2.0 MHz PWM switching, and 137 mV dropout at 200 mA for the LDO - enabling compact, high-efficiency dual-rail power for battery-powered portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the TC1313-ZA0EMFTR datasheet, TC1313-ZA0EMFTR pinout, TC1313-ZA0EMFTR application, or TC1313-ZA0EMFTR equivalent, key selection considerations include independent shutdown control per rail, internal compensation eliminating external loop components, automatic PWM-to-PFM mode transition for ultra-low-light-load efficiency, thermal/UVLO/short-circuit protection, and compatibility with ceramic output capacitors as small as 1 µF on the LDO output.
Technical Context
The TC1313-ZA0EMFTR implements a current-mode synchronous buck regulator with integrated P- and N-channel MOSFETs (RDS(on) = 450 mΩ each), operating at 2.0 MHz (1.6–2.4 MHz range) under heavy load and transitioning automatically to pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) mode below ~30 mA load to maintain <38 µA quiescent current. Its LDO uses a PMOS pass device with 137 mV typical dropout at 200 mA and supports 1 µF ceramic output capacitance.
Both regulators feature independent logic-level shutdown inputs (SHDN1/SHDN2), undervoltage lockout (2.55 V nominal, 200 mV hysteresis), and thermal shutdown at 165°C (10°C hysteresis). The device shares AGND and PGND pins with separate analog and power ground paths, and requires VIN1 and VIN2 to be tied together with minimal trace length to ensure stable operation across its 2.7–5.5 V input range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - supports single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2 V) and USB 5 V supply without external pre-regulation |
| Buck Output Current | 500 mA continuous - sufficient for low-power microcontrollers or RF subsystems requiring core voltage rails |
| LDO Output Current | 300 mA continuous - powers auxiliary peripherals (USB PHY, sensors, memory) with minimal external components |
| Total Quiescent Current | 57 µA typical - enables >1-year battery life in always-on standby applications with dual-rail active monitoring |
| Buck Switching Frequency | 2.0 MHz fixed (1.6–2.4 MHz) - allows use of sub-5 mm inductors and reduces EMI filtering requirements |
| LDO Dropout Voltage | 137 mV @ 200 mA - permits operation with <150 mV headroom, minimizing power loss in low-VIN/VOUT scenarios |
| Operating Junction Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for industrial and automotive cabin-temperature environments |
Pinout & Package
TC1313-ZA0EMFTR is housed in a 3×3 mm, 10-pin DFN package with exposed thermal pad (EP), optimized for space-constrained portable designs. The EP must be soldered to AGND for thermal performance and electrical stability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (SHDN2) | LDO shutdown control input | Active-high logic input (>45% VIN); enables/disables LDO independently - supports dynamic power sequencing |
| 2 (VIN2) | LDO input supply | Connects to shared input rail; must be routed short and low-inductance with VIN1 to minimize noise coupling |
| 3 (VOUT2) | LDO regulated output | Delivers fixed 1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V; requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor to AGND for stability and transient response |
| 4 (NC) | No-connect terminal | Not internally bonded; must remain unconnected and unpopulated on PCB |
| 5 (AGND) | Analog reference ground | Reference node for feedback circuitry; must be isolated from noisy PGND and connected to EP via multiple vias |
| 6 (VFB/VOUT1) | Buck feedback or output sense | For adjustable versions: connects to resistor divider midpoint; for fixed versions: direct output connection - no external compensation needed |
| 7 (SHDN1) | Buck shutdown control input | Active-high logic input (>45% VIN); enables/disables buck stage independently - enables flexible rail enable timing |
| 8 (VIN1) | Buck input supply | Primary input for buck stage; tied directly to VIN2 on PCB - forms common input for both regulators |
| 9 (LX) | Buck switch node | High-slew-rate switching node; requires shortest possible trace to inductor and local high-frequency decoupling |
| 10 (PGND) | Power ground return | Low-impedance return path for buck inductor current and LDO pass device; must be separated from AGND except at single-point tie |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Independent shutdown control | Separate SHDN1 and SHDN2 pins allow precise sequencing of buck and LDO rails - critical for SoC boot order compliance |
| Internally compensated buck | Eliminates need for external compensation network - reduces BOM count and layout sensitivity while ensuring stability across all output voltages |
| Automatic PWM-to-PFM transition | Seamless mode switching at ~30–80 mA load threshold maintains regulation while cutting quiescent current by >50% vs. forced-PWM |
| Low-noise LDO with 1 µF support | Stable with 1 µF ceramic output capacitor - reduces board area and cost versus traditional 10–22 µF tantalum solutions |
| Integrated protection suite | UVLO (2.55 V), thermal shutdown (165°C), overcurrent, and short-circuit protection on both outputs - eliminates need for external fault management circuitry |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS65023BRSBR | Triple-output (2 buck + 1 LDO), higher IQ (85 µA), 2.25 MHz switching, QFN-24 package | Supports more complex SoC power trees; requires larger PCB area and additional external components | Choose when needing third rail or higher integration; avoid if space or BOM count is constrained |
| RT8059ZSP | Dual buck only (no integrated LDO), 600 mA/600 mA, 3 MHz, WDFN-10, no PFM mode | Lacks LDO output - requires external linear regulator for noise-sensitive analog rails | Prefer when both rails demand switching efficiency and low-noise LDO is not required |
Compared with TPS65023BRSBR and RT8059ZSP, TC1313-ZA0EMFTR uniquely balances dual-rail integration, ultra-low quiescent current, and minimal external component count - making it optimal for space- and battery-life-critical portable devices where one rail benefits from low-noise LDO regulation and the other from high-efficiency buck conversion.

FAQ
What output voltage options does the TC1313-ZA0EMFTR support?
The TC1313-ZA0EMFTR supports an adjustable buck output from 0.8 V to 4.5 V (via external resistor divider on VFB pin) and fixed buck outputs of 0.8 V, 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V. Its LDO output is fixed at 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V - determined by factory configuration. The TC1313-ZA0EMFTR variant specifically implements a 1.5 V LDO output paired with an adjustable buck stage.
Does the TC1313-ZA0EMFTR require external compensation components?
No, the TC1313-ZA0EMFTR does not require external compensation components. Both the buck regulator and LDO are internally compensated - eliminating the need for external capacitors or resistors in the feedback loop. This simplifies layout, reduces BOM count, and ensures stability across all supported output voltages and load conditions without tuning.
How does the TC1313-ZA0EMFTR manage efficiency at light loads?
The TC1313-ZA0EMFTR automatically transitions from fixed-frequency PWM mode (2.0 MHz) to pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) mode when load current drops below ~30 mA. In PFM mode, it skips switching cycles to reduce gate drive losses, achieving a typical total quiescent current of 57 µA - significantly improving light-load efficiency compared to forced-PWM alternatives.
What thermal management provisions does the TC1313-ZA0EMFTR include?
The TC1313-ZA0EMFTR incorporates thermal shutdown at 165°C with 10°C hysteresis, and its 3×3 mm DFN package features an exposed thermal pad (EP) that must be soldered to AGND. With proper PCB layout (4-layer board, internal ground plane, ≥2 thermal vias), the device achieves θJA = 41°C/W - enabling reliable operation up to +125°C junction temperature under typical 500 mA buck + 300 mA LDO loads.
Can the TC1313-ZA0EMFTR operate with input voltage below its output voltage?
No - the TC1313-ZA0EMFTR cannot operate with input voltage below its output voltage. Its buck regulator requires minimum input voltage ≥ VOUT1 + dropout (≥280 mV at 500 mA), and its LDO requires ≥ VOUT2 + dropout (≥137 mV at 200 mA). The absolute minimum input is 2.7 V, and the device includes undervoltage lockout (UVLO) that disables both regulators if VIN falls below 2.4 V.
