Product details
Overview
AP130-35WG-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 300mA fixed-output low-dropout linear regulator with 3.5V output voltage, ±2% accuracy, 400mV dropout at full load, 50µA quiescent current, and SC59 package. It integrates PMOS pass element, thermal shutdown, and current-limit protection. It is used in battery-powered wireless modules requiring stable low-noise 3.5V rail.
For engineers reviewing the AP130-35WG-7 datasheet, AP130-35WG-7 pinout, AP130-35WG-7 application, or AP130-35WG-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout performance at 300mA, load regulation under dynamic current steps, thermal resistance in SC59, and compatibility with 1µF/10µF input/output capacitor network.
Technical Context
The AP130-35WG-7 uses a PMOS pass transistor with 1.5Ω on-resistance, eliminating base drive current and enabling ultra-low quiescent operation. Its error amplifier features bandgap reference and internal compensation, ensuring stability with ≥10µF ceramic output capacitance.
It implements fold-back short-circuit current limiting (150–300mA) and thermal shutdown triggered at junction temperatures exceeding +125°C. Line regulation is 0.1–0.3%/V and load regulation is 30–40mV across 1–300mA, supporting precision power delivery in portable systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.5V ±2% - delivers precise bias for 3.3V-tolerant logic or analog circuitry requiring margin above 3.3V |
| Dropout Voltage | 400mV @ 300mA - enables operation down to 3.9V input while sustaining full rated load |
| Quiescent Current | 50µA typ. - minimizes standby power loss in always-on battery applications |
| PSRR | 58dB @ 100Hz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters feeding the LDO |
| Thermal Resistance θJA | 250°C/W (SC59) - requires minimal PCB copper area for thermal management at 300mA continuous load |
| Current Limit | 350–450mA - provides robust fault containment without latch-up during transient overloads |
| Operating Input Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V), USB 5V, and dual-cell alkaline inputs |
Pinout & Package
AP130-35WG-7 is housed in the SC59 surface-mount package (2.90 × 1.30 × 0.95 mm), lead-free and RoHS-compliant, with standard JEDEC moisture sensitivity level (MSL3).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN) | Power Input | Accepts 2.7–5.5V supply; requires ≥1µF local ceramic decoupling to maintain PSRR and transient response |
| 2 (OUT) | Regulated Output | Delivers stable 3.5V ±2%; requires ≥10µF low-ESR output capacitor for loop stability |
| 3 (GND) | Ground Reference | Low-impedance return path for error amplifier and pass device; must connect directly to power plane |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| PMOS Pass Element | RON = 1.5Ω eliminates base current draw, enabling true 50µA IQ independent of load |
| Fast Transient Response | Stabilizes within <10µs after 100mA load step due to internal compensation and low output impedance |
| Thermal Shutdown | Activates at TJ > +125°C and auto-recovers upon cooling-prevents permanent damage during sustained overload |
| Fold-Back Current Limit | Reduces short-circuit current to 150–300mA when VOUT < 1.05V, limiting power dissipation during fault |
| Green Molding Compound | Halogen-free (Br/Sb-free) epoxy meets IPC-4101D/21 requirements for environmentally sensitive designs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fixed-output LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-3502E/TT (Microchip) | 250mA rating, 175mV dropout @ 250mA, 1.6µA IQ - lower current, much lower IQ, higher dropout at 300mA | Suitable only for <250mA loads; insufficient for 300mA burst demands in wireless transceivers | Select if ultra-low IQ dominates over output current capability and input headroom is ample |
| TPS73035DBVR (TI) | 200mA rating, 120mV dropout @ 200mA, 170µA IQ - lower current, lower dropout, higher IQ | Limited to 200mA continuous; may thermally throttle in compact enclosures under sustained load | Prefer where input voltage is tightly regulated near 3.6V and thermal budget allows smaller footprint |
Compared with MCP1700T-3502E/TT and TPS73035DBVR, AP130-35WG-7 uniquely balances 300mA output, 400mV dropout, and 50µA IQ in SC59 - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-operated systems needing full-rated current without sacrificing standby efficiency.

FAQ
What is the minimum output capacitor required for stability with AP130-35WG-7?
The datasheet specifies a minimum 10µF ceramic capacitor at the output terminal for guaranteed stability across all operating conditions. Using less than 10µF risks oscillation or degraded transient response, especially under heavy load steps. X5R or X7R dielectrics with ≤100mΩ ESR are recommended.
Can AP130-35WG-7 operate with a 2.8V input voltage?
No - the absolute minimum input voltage is 2.7V, but the device cannot regulate at 3.5V output with only 2.8V input due to its 400mV dropout requirement. A minimum of 3.9V input is needed to sustain 300mA output current at 3.5V. Below that, output voltage collapses proportionally.
Does AP130-35WG-7 require an input capacitor, and if so, what value?
Yes - a minimum 1µF ceramic capacitor is required between IN and GND, placed as close as possible to the device pins. This reduces high-frequency input impedance, prevents instability from source inductance, and improves PSRR. Larger values (e.g., 4.7–10µF) further enhance transient immunity from upstream switching supplies.
Is AP130-35WG-7 compatible with lead-free reflow soldering profiles?
Yes - AP130-35WG-7 is qualified for lead-free reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020, with a maximum peak temperature of 260°C. Its SC59 package uses matte tin (Sn) lead finish and green halogen-free molding compound, meeting RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC and IPC-4101D/21 standards.
