Product details
Overview
TC1313-ZG0EMFTR 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 independent, adjustable (0.8–4.5 V) or fixed (e.g., 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V) output voltages with 2.0 MHz fixed-frequency PWM operation, <57 µA total quiescent current, and -40°C to +125°C junction temperature range - optimized for battery-powered portable electronics requiring tightly regulated core and I/O rails.
For engineers reviewing the TC1313-ZG0EMFTR datasheet, TC1313-ZG0EMFTR pinout, TC1313-ZG0EMFTR application, or TC1313-ZG0EMFTR equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed dual-rail design trade-offs (buck efficiency vs. LDO noise rejection), and real-world selection guidance for USB-powered devices, handheld medical instruments, and cellular phone power subsystems.
Technical Context
The TC1313-ZG0EMFTR implements a current-mode synchronous buck regulator with automatic PWM-to-PFM mode transition at ~30–80 mA load thresholds, enabling >90% efficiency at heavy loads and ultra-low 38 µA quiescent current in PFM mode. Its integrated N- and P-channel MOSFETs feature typical RDS(on) of 450 mΩ each, supporting 100% duty cycle operation for minimal dropout under low-VIN/VOUT conditions.
The companion LDO operates with 137 mV typical dropout at 200 mA, 62 dB PSRR at 100 Hz, and 1.8 µV/√Hz output noise - stabilized by a single 1 µF ceramic capacitor. Both regulators share independent shutdown controls (SHDN1/SHDN2), undervoltage lockout (2.55 V nominal), thermal shutdown (165°C), and short-circuit protection, with AGND and PGND pins physically separated to minimize noise coupling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Configuration | Dual-rail: 500 mA buck (VOUT1) + 300 mA LDO (VOUT2), independently controllable |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - supports single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2 V) and USB 5 V inputs without external pre-regulation |
| Buck Switching Frequency | 2.0 MHz (typical, ±0.4 MHz) - enables use of small 4.7 µH inductors and compact 4.7 µF input/output capacitors |
| Total Quiescent Current | 57 µA (typical) - ensures >100-hour standby in portable devices with both outputs active but unloaded |
| LDO Dropout Voltage | 137 mV (typical @ 200 mA) - allows efficient regulation from 3.3 V input to 3.3 V output with minimal headroom loss |
| Operating Junction Temp | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive cabin and industrial embedded environments without derating |
| Protection Features | UVLO (2.55 V), thermal shutdown (165°C), overcurrent, and short-circuit protection on both outputs |
Pinout & Package
TC1313-ZG0EMFTR is housed in a 3×3 mm, 10-pin DFN package with exposed thermal pad (EP), rated θJA = 41°C/W on a 4-layer board with internal ground plane and 2 vias to AGND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (SHDN2) | LDO shutdown control input | Active-high logic (>45% VIN); enables/disables 300 mA LDO output independently of buck stage |
| 2 (VIN2) | LDO input supply | Accepts same 2.7–5.5 V input as VIN1; must be routed with minimal trace length to VIN1 |
| 3 (VOUT2) | LDO regulated output | Fixed-voltage output (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V); requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor to AGND for stability |
| 4 (NC) | No-connect terminal | Not internally bonded; must remain unconnected per datasheet |
| 5 (AGND) | Analog reference ground | Reference node for feedback circuitry; must be isolated from high-current PGND and tied to EP via vias |
| 6 (VFB/VOUT1) | Buck feedback or output sense | Connects to center of resistor divider for adjustable VOUT1; directly to VOUT1 for fixed-output variants |
| 7 (SHDN1) | Buck shutdown control input | Active-high logic (>45% VIN); enables/disables 500 mA buck output without affecting LDO |
| 8 (VIN1) | Buck input supply | Main power input for synchronous buck; shares source with VIN2 but requires separate local decoupling |
| 9 (LX) | Switch node | High-slew-rate connection to external inductor; demands shortest possible trace to minimize EMI and losses |
| 10 (PGND) | Power ground return | Return path for buck switching current; must be routed separately from AGND and connected only at single point |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

| Automatic PWM-to-PFM mode transition | Enables seamless efficiency optimization across 0–500 mA load range without external control or firmware intervention |
| Internally compensated buck loop | Removes requirement for external compensation components - simplifies design validation and accelerates time-to-market |

| Low-noise LDO with 62 dB PSRR | Suppresses switching noise from buck stage, enabling clean analog/RF supply rails without additional filtering |
| Exposed thermal pad (EP) | Provides direct thermal path to AGND plane - sustains full 500 mA buck output at +85°C ambient without derating |

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 three-rail systems; larger footprint and higher cost; lacks TC1313-ZG0EMFTR's ultra-low 57 µA IQ | Select when third regulated rail is required and board space permits larger package |
| RT8059ZSP | Dual buck (600 mA + 600 mA), no integrated LDO, 3 MHz switching, WDFN-10 package | Higher current capability but no low-noise linear output; unsuitable for noise-sensitive analog rails | Select when both rails demand high-efficiency switching and LDO noise rejection is unnecessary |
Compared with TPS65023BRSBR and RT8059ZSP, TC1313-ZG0EMFTR uniquely balances ultra-low quiescent current, integrated low-noise LDO, and compact DFN packaging - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-sensitive dual-rail applications where one rail requires clean linear regulation.

FAQ
What output voltage options does TC1313-ZG0EMFTR support for its buck and LDO stages?
TC1313-ZG0EMFTR supports adjustable buck output from 0.8 V to 4.5 V (via external resistor divider on VFB pin) and fixed buck outputs including 0.8 V, 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V. The LDO stage offers fixed outputs only: 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V. The specific configuration of TC1313-ZG0EMFTR corresponds to a fixed 3.3 V LDO output and an adjustable buck stage - confirmed by Microchip's part numbering convention and DS21974B revision history.
How does TC1313-ZG0EMFTR manage efficiency across varying load conditions?
TC1313-ZG0EMFTR automatically transitions between fixed-frequency PWM mode (>90% efficiency at heavy loads) and pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) mode (<38 µA quiescent current at light loads). The transition occurs near 30–80 mA based on inductor current sensing, ensuring optimal efficiency from 0 mA to full 500 mA buck output without external control. This behavior is intrinsic to the IC's control architecture and requires no configuration.
Can TC1313-ZG0EMFTR operate with separate input sources for VIN1 and VIN2?
No - TC1313-ZG0EMFTR requires VIN1 and VIN2 to be connected together with short, low-inductance traces, as explicitly stated in DS21974B Note 8 and Section 4.1. Using separate inputs violates the internal UVLO and bias circuit design, risks improper startup sequencing, and may cause undefined behavior or damage due to potential voltage differentials exceeding ±0.3 V between PGND and AGND.
What is the minimum output capacitance required for stable operation of TC1313-ZG0EMFTR's LDO stage?
The LDO stage of TC1313-ZG0EMFTR requires a minimum of 1 µF ceramic capacitor connected between VOUT2 and AGND for stability across all operating conditions - as specified in Section 3.3 of DS21974B and validated in Typical Application Circuits on page 3. Lower values risk oscillation or poor transient response; X5R/X7R dielectrics are recommended for temperature stability.
Does TC1313-ZG0EMFTR include thermal protection, and how does it behave during overload?
Yes - TC1313-ZG0EMFTR incorporates thermal shutdown that activates at +165°C junction temperature (typical) with 10°C hysteresis. During sustained overload, the device disables both regulators, holds outputs in high-impedance state, and remains latched off until junction temperature falls below +155°C. This behavior is fully autonomous and requires no external circuitry, protecting against PCB-level thermal runaway.
