NCP623
Ultra Low Noise
150 mA Low Dropout
Voltage Regulator with
ON/OFF Control
Housed in a Micro8t or QFN6 package, the NCP623 delivers up to
150 mA where it exhibits a typical 180 mV dropout. With an
incredible noise level of 25
mVRMS
(over 100 Hz to 100 kHz, with a
10 nF bypass capacitor), the NCP623 represents the ideal choice for
sensitive circuits, especially in portable applications where noise
performance and space are premium. The NCP623 also excels in
response time and reacts in less than 25
ms
when receiving an OFF to
ON signal (with no bypass capacitor).
Due to a novel concept, the NCP623 accepts output capacitors without
any restrictions regarding their Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) thus
offering an obvious versatility for immediate implementation.
With a typical DC ripple rejection better than −90 dB (−70 dB @
1.0 kHz), it naturally shields the downstream electronics against
choppy power lines.
Additionally, thermal shutdown and short−circuit protection
provide the final product with a high degree of ruggedness.

NCP623
DEFINITIONS
Load Regulation
− The change in output voltage for a
change in load current at constant chip temperature.
Dropout Voltage
− The input/output differential at which
the regulator output no longer maintains regulation against
further reductions in input voltage. Measured when the
output drops 100 mV below its nominal value (which is
measured at 1.0 V differential), dropout voltage is affected
by junction temperature, load current and minimum input
supply requirements.
Output Noise Voltage
− The RMS AC voltage at the
output with a constant load and no input ripple, measured
over a specified frequency range.
Maximum Power Dissipation
− The maximum total
dissipation for which the regulator will operate within
specifications.
Quiescent Current
− Current which is used to operate the
regulator chip and is not delivered to the load.
Line Regulation
− The change in input voltage for a
change in the input voltage. The measurement is made under
conditions of low dissipation or by using pulse techniques
such that the average chip temperature is not significantly
affected.
Line Transient Response
− Typical over− and
undershoot response when input voltage is excited with a
given slope.
Thermal Protection
− Internal thermal shutdown
circuitry is provided to protect the integrated circuit in the
event that the maximum junction temperature is exceeded.
When activated, typically 150°C, the regulator turns off.
This feature is provided to prevent catastrophic failures from
accidental overheating.
Maximum Package Power Dissipation
− The maximum
package power dissipation is the power dissipation level at
which the junction temperature reaches its maximum value
i.e. 125°C. The junction temperature is rising while the
difference between the input power (V
CC
X I
CC
) and the
output power (V
out
X I
out
) is increasing.
Depending on ambient temperature, it is possible to
calculate the maximum power dissipation, maximum load
current or maximum input voltage (see Application Hints:
Protection).
The maximum power dissipation supported by the device
is a lot increased when using appropriate application design.
Mounting pad configuration on the PCB, the board material
and also the ambient temperature are affected the rate of
temperature rise. It means that when the I
C
has good thermal
conductivity through PCB, the junction temperature will be
“low” even if the power dissipation is great.
The thermal resistance of the whole circuit can be
evaluated by deliberately activating the thermal shutdown
of the circuit (by increasing the output current or raising the
input voltage for example).
Then you can calculate the power dissipation by
subtracting the output power from the input power. All
variables are then well known: power dissipation, thermal
shutdown temperature (150°C for NCP623) and ambient
temperature.

NCP623
APPLICATION HINTS
Input Decoupling
− As with any regulator, it is necessary
to reduce the dynamic impedance of the supply rail that
feeds the component. A 1.0
mF
capacitor either ceramic or
tantalum is recommended and should be connected close to
the NCP623 package. Higher values will correspondingly
improve the overall line transient response.
Output Decoupling
− Due to a novel concept, the
NCP623 is a stable component and does not require any
Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) neither a minimum
output current. Capacitors exhibiting ESRs ranging from a
few mW up to 3.0
W
can thus safely be used. The minimum
decoupling value is 1.0
mF
and can be augmented to fulfill
stringent load transient requirements. The regulator accepts
ceramic chip capacitors as well as tantalum devices.
Noise Performances
− Unlike other LDOs, the NCP623
is a true low−noise regulator. With a 10 nF bypass capacitor,
it typically reaches the incredible level of 25
mVRMS
overall
noise between 100 Hz and 100 kHz. To give maximum
insight on noise specifications, ON Semiconductor includes
spectral density graphics as well as noise dependency versus
bypass capacitor.
The bypass capacitor impacts the start−up phase of the
NCP623 as depicted by the data−sheet curves. A typical
1.0 ms settling time is achieved with a 10 nF bypass
capacitor. However, due to its low−noise architecture, the
NCP623 can operate without bypass and thus offers a typical
20
ms
start−up phase. In that case, the typical output noise
stays lower than 65
mVRMS
between 100 Hz − 100 kHz.
Protections
− The NCP623 hosts several protections,
conferring natural ruggedness and reliability to the products
implementing the component. The output current is
internally limited to a minimum of 175 mA while
temperature shutdown occurs if the die heats up beyond
150°C. These value lets you assess the maximum
differential voltage the device can sustain at a given output
current before its protections come into play.
The maximum dissipation the package can handle is given
by:
T
– T
A
P max
+
Jmax
R
qJA
If a 150 mA output current is needed, the ground current
is extracted from the data−sheet curves: 6.5 mA @ 150 mA.
For a NCP623NW28R2 (2.8 V), the maximum input voltage
will then be 6.48 V, a rather comfortable margin.
