Product details
Overview
AP139-33WG-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 3.3V, 300mA low-noise CMOS LDO regulator in SOT25 package, featuring 45μA typical quiescent current, 0.45V max dropout at 300mA, ±2% output voltage accuracy, and integrated thermal shutdown/current limiting-designed for battery-powered portable electronics requiring stable, low-power regulation.
For engineers reviewing the AP139-33WG-7 datasheet, AP139-33WG-7 pinout, AP139-33WG-7 application, or AP139-33WG-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout performance at full load, PSRR (75dB @1kHz with 10nF bypass), EN pin threshold (1.7V), stability with ≥1.0μF low-ESR output capacitors, and automotive-grade availability via AEC-Q100-qualified variants.
Technical Context
The AP139-33WG-7 employs a pMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout and near-zero gate-drive current draw, supporting operation down to VIN = VOUT + 0.45V. Its error amplifier compares feedback from internal resistor divider (R1/R2) against a precision bandgap reference, delivering ±2% output accuracy over temperature and line/load variation.
Enable functionality is implemented as an active-low digital control input (VEN < 0.8V disables regulator; IQ drops to <2μA), while the BYP pin accepts a 10nF capacitor to enhance PSRR by stabilizing internal reference noise-critical for RF-sensitive or audio subsystems where supply ripple must be suppressed below 100kHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±2% at 1mA–300mA load ensures compatibility with 3.3V logic rails and microcontrollers. |
| Max Output Current | Guaranteed 300mA continuous output supports moderate-power peripherals like sensors, displays, or BLE radios. |
| Dropout Voltage | ≤0.45V at 300mA enables operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0V min) or two-cell alkaline (3.2V min). |
| Quiescent Current | 45μA typ / 60μA max extends battery life in always-on IoT nodes or standby modes. |
| PSRR | 75dB @1kHz (with 10nF BYP cap) suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters. |
| Thermal Shutdown | Activates at +130°C with +20°C hysteresis, protecting PCB layout under sustained high-power dissipation. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V covers USB, coin-cell, and multi-cell battery inputs without external regulators. |
Pinout & Package
SOT25 (5-pin, lead-free, RoHS-compliant, "Green" halogen/antimony-free) surface-mount package measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm, optimized for space-constrained handheld devices.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input Power Supply | Accepts 2.7–5.5V unregulated input; requires ≥0.1μF ceramic decoupling close to pin. |
| GND | Ground Reference | Common return path for all internal circuits; must connect to low-impedance PCB ground plane. |
| EN | Enable Control Input | Active-low logic input; pulling ≤0.8V disables regulator and reduces IQ to <2μA for system-level power gating. |
| BYP | Bypass Capacitor Terminal | Connects to 10nF capacitor to ground to reduce reference noise and improve PSRR above 1kHz. |
| VOUT | Regulated Output | Delivers stable 3.3V ±2%; requires ≥1.0μF low-ESR ceramic capacitor directly at pin for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low Dropout Operation | 0.45V max at 300mA enables efficient regulation from marginal input sources like aging batteries. |
| Ultra-Low Quiescent Current | 45μA typ allows >1-year runtime on CR2032 in always-on sensor nodes with 10μA average load. |
| High PSRR with Bypass | 75dB @1kHz using 10nF BYP capacitor mitigates noise coupling into analog/RF sections. |
| Robust Protection | Integrated current limit (300–450mA) and thermal shutdown (+130°C) prevent failure during short-circuit or overload. |
| Stability with Low-ESR Caps | Guaranteed stable with ≥1.0μF ceramic output capacitor-eliminates need for costly tantalum or polymer types. |
Applications
| Wearable Health Monitor | USB-Powered Peripheral |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP7343-33SG-7 | Successor device: 300mA, 40μA IQ, 0.35V dropout, same SOT25 footprint, AEC-Q100 qualified. | Supports automotive-grade qualification and longer product lifecycle; identical pinout and electrical behavior. | Select for new designs requiring long-term supply assurance and IATF 16949 manufacturing traceability. |
| MCP1700-3302E/TO | 300mA, 1.6μA IQ, 600mV dropout, TO-92 through-hole package; no EN or BYP pins. | Limited to low-power, non-battery-critical applications; lacks enable control and noise-reduction bypass capability. | Use only in cost-sensitive, non-portable industrial controls where ultra-low IQ outweighs dropout and feature trade-offs. |
Compared with AP139-33WG-7, AP7343-33SG-7 offers lower dropout and automotive qualification but identical form/fit/function, while MCP1700-3302E/TO sacrifices EN/BYP functionality and dropout performance for extreme quiescent current reduction in fixed-mount applications.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for AP139-33WG-7 to maintain regulation at 300mA load?
The minimum input voltage is calculated as VOUT + VDROPOUT = 3.3V + 0.45V = 3.75V. However, per Recommended Operating Conditions, VIN must be ≥2.7V, and functional regulation is guaranteed only when VIN ≥ VOUT + VDROPOUT. At 300mA, 3.75V is the practical minimum; operation below this causes output droop or dropout.
Can AP139-33WG-7 operate without the 10nF bypass capacitor on the BYP pin?
Yes, it will regulate without the BYP capacitor, but PSRR degrades significantly-dropping from 75dB to ~40dB at 1kHz. The datasheet specifies the 10nF capacitor as necessary for low-noise operation; omitting it compromises noise-sensitive applications like RF receivers or precision ADCs.
Is AP139-33WG-7 pin-compatible with AP7343-33SG-7?
Yes-both use identical SOT25 pinout (VIN, GND, EN, BYP, VOUT), share the same footprint and thermal pad layout, and have functionally equivalent electrical characteristics. AP7343-33SG-7 is a direct replacement with improved specs and automotive qualification, recommended for new designs.
Does AP139-33WG-7 require an input capacitor, and what value is recommended?
Yes-an input capacitor is required for stability and transient suppression. The datasheet recommends ≥0.1μF ceramic placed close to the VIN and GND pins. For best EMI performance and load-step response, a 1μF X7R ceramic capacitor is commonly used alongside the mandatory output capacitor.
