Product details
Overview
TC1313-ZI0EMFTR 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-output voltages (e.g., 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V) for buck and fixed 1.5–3.3 V for LDO, with 57 µA typical total quiescent current and -40°C to +125°C operating junction temperature - used in portable medical instruments requiring compact, low-noise dual-rail power.
For engineers reviewing the TC1313-ZI0EMFTR datasheet, TC1313-ZI0EMFTR pinout, TC1313-ZI0EMFTR application, or TC1313-ZI0EMFTR equivalent, key selection criteria include independent shutdown control per rail, 2.0 MHz fixed-frequency PWM mode with automatic PFM transition at light load, 137 mV typical LDO dropout at 200 mA, internal compensation, and UVLO/overtemperature/short-circuit protection.
Technical Context
The TC1313-ZI0EMFTR implements a current-mode synchronous buck regulator with integrated P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs (RDS(on) = 450 mΩ each), operating at 2.0 MHz (±0.4 MHz) under heavy load and transitioning automatically to PFM mode below ~30 mA load to maintain ultra-low IQ. Its LDO stage uses a PMOS pass element with 137 mV typical dropout at 200 mA and supports ceramic output capacitors as small as 1 µF.
Both regulators feature independent logic-level shutdown inputs (SHDN1/SHDN2) with 15% VIN low threshold and 45% VIN high threshold, 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 but isolates analog and power ground paths to minimize noise coupling between buck switching and LDO output.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Buck Output Current | 500 mA max - supports processor core rails with high transient response and >90% efficiency at full load |
| LDO Output Current | 300 mA max - powers auxiliary circuits (e.g., sensors, I/O) with minimal external components |
| Total Quiescent Current | 57 µA typical - enables multi-day battery life in always-on portable devices |
| Buck Switching Frequency | 2.0 MHz fixed (1.6–2.4 MHz range) - allows use of small 4.7 µH inductors and reduces EMI filtering burden |
| LDO Dropout Voltage | 137 mV typical @ 200 mA - minimizes power loss when input is close to output (e.g., 3.3 V → 3.3 V rail) |
| Operating Junction Temp | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive cabin and industrial edge applications without derating |
| UVLO Threshold | 2.55 V ±0.15 V - prevents erratic startup during brownout conditions in USB- or battery-powered systems |
Pinout & Package
TC1313-ZI0EMFTR is housed in a 3×3 mm, 10-pin DFN package with exposed thermal pad (EP), optimized for high-power-density PCB layouts. The EP must be soldered to AGND for thermal performance and electrical reference.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SHDN2 (Pin 1) | LDO shutdown control input | Active-high logic input; drives LDO into zero-current shutdown when pulled <15% VIN |
| VIN2 (Pin 2) | LDO input supply | Accepts same input source as VIN1; requires local 4.7 µF decoupling for ripple suppression |
| VOUT2 (Pin 3) | LDO regulated output | Delivers fixed 1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V; requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor to AGND for stability |
| NC (Pin 4) | No-connect terminal | Must remain unconnected; no internal circuitry attached |
| AGND (Pin 5) | Analog ground reference | Reference node for feedback and control circuitry; separate from PGND to reduce noise coupling |
| VFB/VOUT1 (Pin 6) | Buck feedback or output sense | Connects to voltage divider midpoint for adjustable outputs; ties directly to VOUT1 for fixed versions |
| SHDN1 (Pin 7) | Buck shutdown control input | Independent enable/disable of buck stage; compatible with microcontroller GPIO |
| VIN1 (Pin 8) | Buck input supply | Input range 2.7–5.5 V; must be routed short and low-inductance to LX and PGND |
| LX (Pin 9) | Buck switch node | High-slew-rate switching node; connects directly to inductor; requires minimum trace area |
| PGND (Pin 10) | Power ground return | Carries high di/dt buck currents; must connect to dedicated low-impedance ground plane |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Independent shutdown per regulator | Enables dynamic power sequencing: e.g., keep LDO active while buck sleeps to maintain real-time clock supply |
| Automatic PWM-to-PFM mode transition | Eliminates need for external load monitoring; maintains regulation down to µA loads with <38 µA buck IQ |
| Internally compensated buck loop | Reduces BOM count by removing external compensation network; supports stable operation with 4.7 µH/4.7 µF LC |
| Low-noise LDO with 62 dB PSRR @ 100 Hz | Suppresses switching noise from buck stage, enabling clean analog/RF supply rails without additional filtering |
| Thermal and short-circuit protection | Self-protecting operation prevents field failure during overloads or layout errors; auto-recovery after fault removal |

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 1.2 A buck current; 2.25 MHz switching; requires external compensation | Supports more complex SoC power trees (e.g., DDR I/O + core + PLL); larger 4×4 QFN package | Choose TPS65023BRSBR when >500 mA buck current or third rail is required; not drop-in due to pinout and compensation differences |
| RT8070ZSP | Dual buck only (no integrated LDO); 600 mA per channel; 1.5 MHz; external feedback resistors required | Suitable for digital-only dual-rail systems; lacks low-noise auxiliary rail for analog/RF sections | Choose RT8070ZSP when both rails are switching and LDO noise immunity is unnecessary; requires redesign for LDO functionality |
Compared with TPS65023BRSBR and RT8070ZSP, TC1313-ZI0EMFTR uniquely balances integration (buck + LDO), ultra-low IQ, and minimal external components - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-operated dual-rail systems where analog/RF cleanliness matters.

FAQ
What output voltage options does TC1313-ZI0EMFTR support?
TC1313-ZI0EMFTR supports adjustable buck output from 0.8 V to 4.5 V (via external resistor divider on VFB/VOUT1) 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 output is fixed at 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V depending on factory configuration - TC1313-ZI0EMFTR is specified for 1.5 V LDO output per Microchip's ordering matrix and datasheet revision DS21974B.
Does TC1313-ZI0EMFTR require external compensation components?
No, TC1313-ZI0EMFTR does not require external compensation components for either regulator. Both the synchronous buck and LDO stages are internally compensated, enabling stable operation with only standard input/output capacitors and an inductor - simplifying layout and reducing BOM count compared to controllers requiring external Type-II or Type-III compensation networks.
How does TC1313-ZI0EMFTR manage efficiency at light load?
TC1313-ZI0EMFTR automatically transitions its buck regulator from fixed-frequency PWM mode (>30 mA load) to pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) mode at light loads, reducing quiescent current to 38 µA typical. This preserves battery life in standby without sacrificing regulation - unlike forced-PWM converters that waste power at low load. The LDO remains active with 44 µA IQ during buck sleep.
What is the thermal performance of TC1313-ZI0EMFTR in the DFN package?
In the 3×3 mm DFN package with exposed pad soldered to AGND, TC1313-ZI0EMFTR has a typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 41°C/W on a 4-layer board with internal ground plane and two thermal vias. This enables full 500 mA buck + 300 mA LDO operation up to +85°C ambient without derating, and supports continuous operation at 125°C junction temperature with appropriate board-level heatsinking.
Can TC1313-ZI0EMFTR's buck and LDO outputs be powered from different input sources?
No - TC1313-ZI0EMFTR requires VIN1 and VIN2 to be supplied from the same input source, as stated in Note 8 of the datasheet. The device is not designed for split-input operation; connecting separate supplies risks violating absolute maximum ratings on PGND–AGND differential voltage (±0.3 V) and may cause latch-up or premature failure.
