Product details
Overview
TCK423G,L3F from Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation is an over-voltage protection MOSFET gate driver IC designed to control external N-channel MOSFETs in load-switch applications. It operates across 2.7 V to 28 V input, features 14.29 V typical over-voltage lockout (OVLO), delivers 5.6 V gate-source drive, and draws ≤0.9 µA standby current - enabling ultra-low-power mobile and wearable power management systems.
For engineers reviewing the TCK423G,L3F datasheet, TCK423G,L3F pinout, TCK423G,L3F application, or TCK423G,L3F equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed operating parameters, and real-world design implications for high-reliability load-switch implementations with N-channel MOSFETs.
Technical Context
The TCK423G,L3F integrates a charge pump to generate a regulated 5.6 V gate drive relative to VIN or VOUT, supporting both common-drain dual-MOSFET and single high-side configurations. Its OVLO threshold is fixed at 14.29 V (typ), with 0.12 V hysteresis, and UVLO activates below 2.0 V (typ).
Control logic responds to VCT: high enables gate drive (tON = 2.9 ms typ), low disables it (tOFF = 16.4 µs typ at 12 V). The device includes gate-source protection circuits and monitors VIN directly - no external sensing required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| OVLO Threshold | 14.29 V (typ); triggers shutdown before external MOSFET exceeds safe VGS or VDS limits under overvoltage transients. |
| VGS Output | 5.6 V (typ); sufficient to fully enhance low-RDS(on) N-channel MOSFETs (e.g., TPN1R603PL) without requiring external bias. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 28 V; supports Li-ion battery packs (3.0–4.2 V), USB PD (5–20 V), and industrial 24 V rails. |
| Standby Current | 0.52 µA max at 12 V; enables multi-year battery life in always-on wearable sensors and IoT endpoints. |
| tOFF | 16.4 µs (typ at 12 V); ensures rapid fault isolation during overvoltage events to protect downstream circuitry. |
| UVLO Threshold | 2.0 V (typ); prevents erratic operation during brownout or cold-start conditions in portable devices. |
| Max Input Voltage | 40 V (absolute); provides margin against voltage spikes up to automotive load-dump levels. |
Pinout & Package
Package: WCSP6G (1.2 mm × 0.8 mm, 0.35 mm max height), wafer-level chip-scale package optimized for space-constrained mobile PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | VGATE1 | Gate drive output for VIN-side MOSFET in common-drain configuration; open-circuit in single-MOSFET mode. |
| B1 | VGATE2 | Primary gate drive output for VOUT-side MOSFET; delivers 5.6 V above VOUT to fully enhance N-channel devices. |
| C1 | VOUT | Output monitoring node; connects to source of VOUT-side MOSFET and serves as reference for VGATE2 drive. |
| A2 | VIN | Main input supply; powers internal circuitry and serves as source reference for VIN-side MOSFET in common-drain topology. |
| B2 | GND | System ground reference; must be low-impedance return path for gate drive current and OVLO/UVLO comparators. |
| C2 | VCT | Active-high enable control; logic-high ≥1.2 V turns on MOSFETs, logic-low ≤0.4 V forces fast gate discharge and shutdown. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated charge pump | Generates stable 5.6 V gate drive independent of input voltage - eliminates need for external boost regulator in 2.7–28 V systems. |
| Gate-source protection | Clamps VGATE1–VIN and VGATE2–VOUT to prevent external MOSFET gate oxide damage during transients or startup. |
| Dual-MOSFET support | Configurable for common-drain (dual N-ch) or single high-side topologies - reduces BOM count and layout complexity. |
| Ultra-low IQ(OFF) | 0.52 µA max at 12 V enables >10-year shelf life in battery-backed medical wearables and asset trackers. |
| Fast OVLO response | tOVP = 16 µs (typ) ensures gate turn-off occurs before overvoltage propagates to load - critical for protecting sensitive SoCs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar over-voltage protection gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TCK422G,L3F | Same 14.29 V OVLO but delivers 10 V VGS; higher IQ(ON) (140 µA vs. 140 µA at 12 V) and no IQ(OFF) reduction benefit. | Required where external MOSFETs need >6 V VGS for lowest RDS(on), e.g., high-current motor drivers. | Select TCK422G,L3F only if 10 V gate drive is mandatory; otherwise TCK423G,L3F saves power and cost. |
| TCK424G,L3F | Lower 10.83 V OVLO threshold; identical 5.6 V VGS and standby current specs; same WCSP6G package. | Suitable for 9–12 V systems (e.g., automotive accessory rails) where tighter OVLO margin is needed. | Choose TCK424G,L3F for 12 V nominal inputs with strict transient suppression; TCK423G,L3F better matches 12–24 V industrial rails. |
Compared with TCK422G,L3F and TCK424G,L3F, the TCK423G,L3F uniquely balances 14.29 V OVLO headroom for 24 V systems with 5.6 V gate drive efficiency and sub-1 µA standby - making it optimal for battery-powered 12 V load switches where power budget and surge margin are both critical.

FAQ
What is the exact over-voltage lockout threshold for TCK423G,L3F?
The TCK423G,L3F has a typical over-voltage lockout (OVLO) threshold of 14.29 V, with a guaranteed range of 13.61 V to 14.91 V across –40°C to +85°C. This value is factory-trimmed and applies to the VIN pin; the device shuts down VGATE2 output when VIN exceeds this threshold to protect downstream components.
Does TCK423G,L3F support single N-channel MOSFET configurations?
Yes, the TCK423G,L3F supports single high-side N-channel MOSFET operation: configure VGATE1 as open (non-connected), connect VGATE2 to the MOSFET gate, VOUT to the MOSFET source, and VIN to the drain. The internal charge pump still delivers 5.6 V VGS referenced to VOUT, ensuring reliable enhancement.
What is the maximum gate capacitance the TCK423G,L3F can drive reliably?
The TCK423G,L3F is characterized with 4000 pF total gate capacitance (CGATE1 + CGATE2) and achieves tON = 2.9 ms and tOFF = 16.4 µs at 12 V input. While not explicitly rated beyond this, successful operation has been verified with Toshiba's TPN1R603PL (Ciss ≈ 3200 pF), confirming suitability for most low-to-mid RDS(on) discrete N-channel MOSFETs.
How does the VCT pin function in TCK423G,L3F?
The VCT pin is an active-high digital control input: applying ≥1.2 V (VIH min) enables gate drive (VGATE2 rises to 5.6 V above VOUT), while ≤0.4 V (VIL max) forces immediate gate discharge and disables output. Internal 550 kΩ pull-down ensures safe default-OFF behavior if left unconnected.
Is the WCSP6G package of TCK423G,L3F compatible with standard reflow profiles?
Yes, the WCSP6G package (1.2 mm × 0.8 mm, 0.35 mm max height) is qualified for lead-free reflow per J-STD-020, including peak temperatures up to 260°C. Land pattern dimensions (0.4 mm pitch, Φ0.23 mm solder balls) are provided in Toshiba's package documentation and support standard Type III stencil printing and AOI inspection.
