Product details
Overview
AP2112R5A-3.3TRG1 from Diodes Incorporated is a fixed-output 3.3V, 600mA CMOS low-dropout linear regulator with enable control and auto-discharge functionality, delivering ±1.5% output accuracy, 250mV typical dropout at full load, and 50µVRMS output noise - deployed in portable LCD monitors for stable core rail regulation.
For engineers reviewing the AP2112R5A-3.3TRG1 datasheet, AP2112R5A-3.3TRG1 pinout, AP2112R5A-3.3TRG1 application, or AP2112R5A-3.3TRG1 equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 600mA load capability, 0.02%/V line regulation, thermal shutdown at +160°C, and SOT89-5 (R5A) package compatibility with high-thermal-conductivity PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The AP2112R5A-3.3TRG1 implements a CMOS-based LDO architecture with internal voltage reference, error amplifier, and PMOS pass transistor, enabling fast transient response to load steps up to 600mA while maintaining tight output regulation across -40°C to +85°C ambient.
Its enable logic (VIH ≥1.5V, VIL ≤0.4V) controls both output activation and integrated 60Ω discharge path to ground, while foldback current limiting (50mA short-circuit limit) and thermal shutdown (+160°C trip, +25°C hysteresis) provide robust fault protection without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±1.5% - ensures stable MCU I/O or display logic rail within industrial temperature range. |
| Max Output Current | 600mA minimum - supports sustained operation of mid-power digital subsystems without derating. |
| Dropout Voltage | 250mV typical @600mA - enables regulation from 3.55V input, critical for battery-powered systems near end-of-life. |
| Quiescent Current | 55µA typical - minimizes standby power loss in always-on system management rails. |
| PSRR | -65dB @100Hz/1kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters feeding the LDO input. |
| Output Noise | 50µVRMS (10Hz–100kHz) - meets low-noise requirements for analog sensor interfaces or RF bias supplies. |
| Thermal Shutdown | +160°C with +25°C hysteresis - prevents permanent damage during sustained overload or poor heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
SOT89-5 (R5A) package: 5-pin surface-mount outline with exposed thermal pad (pin 4 = GND), optimized for thermal dissipation in space-constrained applications. Pin 1 = VOUT, Pin 2 = VIN, Pin 3 = EN, Pin 4 = GND, Pin 5 = NC.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VOUT | Regulated 3.3V output - connects directly to load; requires ≥1.0µF ceramic capacitor for stability. |
| 2 | VIN | Input supply (2.5–6.0V) - must be filtered; dropout behavior defined relative to this node. |
| 3 | EN | Active-high enable - drives high (>1.5V) to activate regulator; pulls low (<0.4V) to disable and engage 60Ω discharge path. |
| 4 | GND | Power ground - shared reference for VIN, VOUT, and EN; electrically tied to thermal pad for heat transfer. |
| 5 | NC | No connection - left unconnected per design; no internal circuitry attached. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto-discharge function | 60Ω internal pull-down on VOUT when EN = low - eliminates residual voltage on downstream circuits during shutdown. |
| Stable with 1.0µF output cap | Compatible with ceramic, tantalum, and aluminum electrolytic capacitors - reduces BOM count and board area. |
| Foldback short-circuit protection | 50mA current limit under VOUT = 0V - limits power dissipation during output faults without latch-up. |
| Low standby current | 0.01µA typical - enables multi-year battery life in maintenance-free IoT sensor nodes. |
| High PSRR at audio frequencies | -65dB @100Hz/1kHz - rejects ripple from buck converter switching frequencies and their harmonics. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-3302E/MB | 300mA max output, 1.6µA quiescent current, no enable or discharge function | Limited to ultra-low-power sensors; lacks fast transient support for digital loads | Select only when <300mA load and sub-µA sleep current dominate requirements |
| TLS850B2ELVSE | Automotive-grade AEC-Q100, 500mA, integrated watchdog and reset, higher cost | Designed for automotive body electronics; overqualified for consumer portable devices | Choose only if ISO 26262 functional safety compliance or extended temperature (-40°C to +125°C) is mandatory |
Compared with MCP1700T-3302E/MB and TLS850B2ELVSE, the AP2112R5A-3.3TRG1 uniquely balances 600mA delivery, 55µA quiescent current, and integrated enable/discharge in a cost-optimized industrial-grade SOT89-5 package - making it optimal for portable display and embedded control applications where performance, size, and thermal efficiency are co-prioritized.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for AP2112R5A-3.3TRG1 to regulate 3.3V at 600mA?
The minimum input voltage is 3.55V, calculated from the 3.3V nominal output plus the 250mV typical dropout voltage at 600mA load. The datasheet specifies a recommended operating VIN range of 4.3V to 6.0V for 3.3V output, ensuring margin across temperature and process variation while maintaining regulation under worst-case conditions.
Can AP2112R5A-3.3TRG1 operate with a 1.0µF ceramic output capacitor?
Yes - the device is explicitly characterized and guaranteed stable with 1.0µF ceramic (X7R/X5R), tantalum, or aluminum electrolytic capacitors. No ESR requirements apply, simplifying layout and reducing bill-of-materials cost compared to legacy LDOs requiring specific capacitor types or values.
How does the auto-discharge function behave during shutdown?
When the EN pin is driven low (<0.4V), an internal 60Ω resistor connects VOUT to GND, discharging output capacitance rapidly. This prevents floating voltages that could cause unintended logic states or latch-up in downstream circuits, and is confirmed by the RDCHG parameter in the Electrical Characteristics table (page 8).
Is AP2112R5A-3.3TRG1 compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes - the device is fully RoHS-compliant and rated for lead-free reflow with a maximum lead temperature of +260°C for 10 seconds. Its SOT89-5 (R5A) package meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1, eliminating bake requirements prior to assembly.
