NCV8881
1.5A Automotive Buck
Regulator with Watchdog
The NCV8881 consists of a Buck switching regulator (SMPS) with
a combination SMPS output undervoltage monitor and CPU watchdog
circuit. In addition, two fixed−voltage low dropout regulator outputs
are provided, and share an LDO output voltage status output. Once
enabled, regulator operation continues until the Watchdog signal is no
longer present. The NCV8881 is intended for Automotive,
battery−connected applications that must withstand a 40 V load dump.
The switching regulator is capable of converting the typical 9 V to
19 V automotive input voltage range to outputs from 3.3 V to 8 V at a
constant switching frequency, which can be resistor programmed or
synchronized to an external clock signal. Enable input threshold and
hysteresis are programmable, with the enable input state replicated at
an open drain Ignition Buffer output. The regulators are protected by
current limiting, input overvoltage and overtemperature shutdown, as
well as SMPS short circuit shutdown.

Specific Notes on Thermal Characterization Conditions:
All boards are 0.062” thick FR4, 3” square, with varying amounts of copper heat spreader, in still air (free convection) conditions.
Numerical values are derived from an axisymmetric finite−element model where active die area, total die area, flag area, pad area,
and board area are equated to the actual corresponding areas.
1. 1 oz. copper, 17.2 mm
2
spreader area (minimum exposed pad, not including traces which are assumed).
2. 1 oz. copper, 645 mm
2
(1 in
2
) spreader area (includes exposed pad).
3. “Board” is defined as center of exposed pad soldered to board; this is the recommended number to be used for thermal calculations, as it
best represents the primary heat flow path and is least sensitive to board and ambient properties.

RESB
Description
This open drain output is pulled low whenever the EN signal is latched and a low level is recognized at
the EN input.
CMOS compatible Watchdog pulse input from a CPU. To be valid, the time between falling edges of this
signal must be less than the programmed Watchdog Delay.
Delay programming pin for POR, BOOT and Watchdog delays. Connect a resistor between this pin and
ground.
This is an open drain output for resetting a CPU. RESB goes low if the WDI signal period is longer than
the programmed Watchdog delay, if VIN is above or below operating voltage, if the SMPS output is out of
regulation, or if the part is in thermal shutdown.
Logic compatible Enable input. Once a high is received at the EN pin, the part enters a startup
sequence. Until expiration of the Soft−Start Timer, a low at the EN pin will shut off the part. Upon
expiration of the Soft−Start Timer, a low at the EN pin will shut the part off only if the SMPS output is out
of regulation, or the signal at the WDI input is not valid.
Logic compatible Synchronization input. Grounding this input allows a resistor between the ROSC pin
and ground to control the switching frequency. Connecting this pin to an external clock synchronizes
switching to the rising edge of the clock.
Oscillator frequency programming pin. Connect an external resistor from this pin to GND to set the
switching frequency. Leave this pin floating to operate at the default frequency of the internal oscillator.
Switching frequency is not controlled by this resistance if a clock is present at the SYNC pin, but the
resistance remains in control of the modulator ramp amplitude.
Battery return, and ground reference for output voltages.
Switching Regulator Error Amplifier output for tailoring SMPS transient response with external
compensation components.
Feedback input pin to program Switching Regulator output voltage, and detect a low or shorted SMPS
output condition.
Bootstrap input provides drive voltage higher than VIN to the SMPS N−channel Power Switch for
minimum switch R
DS(on)
and highest efficiency. For a typical application connect a 0.1
mF
ceramic
capacitor from this pin to the SW pin, in close proximity to both pins.
Switching node of the Switching Regulator. Connect the SMPS output inductor and cathode of the SMPS
freewheeling diode to this pin.
Input voltage from battery. Place an input filter capacitor in close proximity to this pin.
Output of the internal 8.5 V linear regulator. This provides regulated gate drive voltage to the SMPS
Power Switch. For a typical application connect a 4.7
mF
ceramic capacitor in series with 0.5
W
from this
pin to ground.
This open drain output is pulled low if either the 5P0 or 8P5 output is out of regulation.
Output of the internal 5 V linear regulator. For a typical application connect a 4.7
mF
ceramic capacitor in
series with 0.5
W
from this pin to ground.
Solder this to a low thermal impedance path for cooling.
