Key Features
- Fixed 5 V output with ±2.5% accuracy from a wide 6 V to 30 V input range for robust industrial supply designs
- 70 mA output current with up to 1.3 V max dropout, suitable for bias rails powered from automotive or industrial 12 V/24 V buses
- 6-pin SOT-223-5 package with exposed tab providing enhanced thermal dissipation for continuous 70 mA operation
Applications
The MCP1791T-5002E/DC is used as a bias or logic supply regulator in industrial control panels, motor drive boards, and building automation modules powered directly from 12 V or 24 V DC buses. Its 30 V input capability and SOT-223-5 thermal tab make it reliable for powering 5 V microcontroller and sensor rails in harsh environments with wide supply variations. It also suits automotive accessory electronics requiring a fixed 5 V rail from a 12 V battery source.

Frequently Asked Questions
What input voltage range can the MCP1791T-5002E/DC handle, and does it suit 24 V industrial systems?
The MCP1791T-5002E/DC accepts inputs from 6 V to 30 V continuously, with a 48 V absolute maximum, making it directly compatible with 12 V and 24 V industrial DC buses without any pre-regulation stage.
What is the output current rating and dropout voltage of the MCP1791T-5002E/DC?
It supplies up to 70 mA at a fixed 5 V output. The typical dropout voltage is 0.7 V and the maximum is 1.3 V, so the device regulates reliably down to a 6.3 V input under full load.
How does the SOT-223-5 package with exposed tab help manage heat in a continuous-load design?
The SOT-223-5 package includes a large exposed metal tab that connects to the PCB ground plane via solder, significantly reducing the thermal resistance to ambient. At 70 mA output and a 24 V input, the device dissipates approximately 1.3 W, which the tab helps spread efficiently.
What output accuracy does the MCP1791T-5002E/DC provide, and is that adequate for 5 V microcontroller rails?
The fixed 5 V output is guaranteed to ±2.5%, meaning the output stays within 4.875 V to 5.125 V across line, load, and temperature variations. Most 5 V microcontrollers and logic ICs tolerate a ±5% supply, so this accuracy provides comfortable margin.
