Product details
Overview
AP2204MP-ADJTRG1 from Diodes Incorporated is an adjustable ultra-low dropout (ULDO) linear regulator IC designed for precision voltage regulation in space-constrained, battery-sensitive systems. It operates across a 2.6V–24V input range, delivers up to 150mA output current, features 1.24V reference voltage, 60dB PSRR at 1kHz, and 100mV dropout at 100µA - enabling stable 7.6V output in USB-powered instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the AP2204MP-ADJTRG1 datasheet, AP2204MP-ADJTRG1 pinout, AP2204MP-ADJTRG1 application, or AP2204MP-ADJTRG1 equivalent, key selection criteria include adjustable output capability (1.24V–22V), thermal shutdown protection, compatibility with low-ESR ceramic capacitors, and PSOP-8 package suitability for thermally demanding portable designs.
Technical Context
The AP2204MP-ADJTRG1 integrates a precision 1.24V bandgap reference, error amplifier, current-limit circuit, thermal shutdown logic, and enable control - all implemented in high-voltage EPNP process. Its feedback loop uses external R1/R2 resistors to set VOUT = 1.24V × (1 + R1/R2), supporting programmable outputs from 1.24V to 22V.
It achieves 0.05% line regulation and 0.5% load regulation over temperature, with ground current as low as 20µA at zero load and 2.5mA at 150mA output. The PSOP-8 package provides θJC = 22°C/W, enabling reliable operation up to +125°C junction temperature under sustained 150mA loads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.6V to 24V - supports direct connection to 12V automotive rails or multi-cell Li-ion batteries without pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage Range | 1.24V to 22V (adjustable) - set via external resistor divider; enables custom biasing for analog sensors or RF front-ends. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA - sufficient for powering microcontroller cores, ADCs, or small FPGAs in portable equipment. |
| Dropout Voltage | 100mV @ 100µA - ensures regulation even when VIN drops within ~100mV of VOUT, critical for battery end-of-life operation. |
| PSRR | 60dB @ 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters feeding the LDO input. |
| Ground Current | 20µA @ IOUT = 0A - minimizes quiescent power loss in always-on subsystems like real-time clocks or wake-up circuits. |
| Reference Voltage | 1.24V ±2.4% - defines output accuracy baseline; combined with resistor tolerance determines final VOUT precision. |
| Thermal Shutdown | Active at TJ ≥ +150°C - protects device and PCB during overload or poor heatsinking conditions. |
Pinout & Package
AP2204MP-ADJTRG1 is housed in a thermally enhanced PSOP-8 package (5.8mm × 4.0mm × 1.27mm) with exposed pad for GND connection, delivering θJA = 51°C/W on 2-layer FR-4 board.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VOUT | Regulated output node; requires 2.2µF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability and transient response. |
| 2 | NC | No internal connection; leave unconnected or tie to GND for mechanical reinforcement only. |
| 3 | NC | No internal connection; same as Pin 2 - no electrical function. |
| 4 | ADJ/NC | Feedback input for adjustable version; connects to resistor divider midpoint; must not float. |
| 5 | VIN | Main input supply; decouple with 1.0µF ceramic capacitor close to pin to suppress high-frequency noise. |
| 6 | GND | Analog and power ground reference; connect directly to exposed pad for optimal thermal and noise performance. |
| 7 | NC | No internal connection; electrically isolated; avoid routing signals nearby. |
| 8 | EN | Active-high enable input; drives high (>2.0V) to activate regulator; pulls low (<0.4V) to enter 0.01µA standby mode. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide Input Range (2.6V–24V) | Eliminates need for intermediate buck stages when powering from variable sources like automotive or industrial 12V/24V rails. |
| Ultra-Low Dropout (100mV @ 100µA) | Extends usable battery life by maintaining regulation down to near-cell minimum voltage in single- or dual-cell Li-ion systems. |
| Low Ground Current (20µA @ no load) | Reduces system standby power by >90% vs. legacy LDOs, enabling months-long operation on coin cells in IoT endpoint devices. |
| 60dB PSRR @ 1kHz | Attenuates ripple from noisy switchers (e.g., DC/DC converters) to preserve signal integrity in ADC reference or RF bias supplies. |
| Thermal Shutdown + Current Limit | Provides autonomous fault containment during short-circuit or overheating events without external protection circuitry. |
| PSOP-8 with Exposed Pad | Enables 22°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance - supports 150mA continuous output with minimal PCB copper area. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar adjustable LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP2210MP-ADJTRG1 | Higher max output current (300mA), higher quiescent current (50µA), same PSOP-8 package. | Better suited for higher-power loads like Wi-Fi SoCs or display drivers requiring >150mA. | Select when output current demand exceeds 150mA but thermal budget allows higher IGND. |
| MCP1703T-3302E/MB | Fixed 3.3V output, SOT-23-5 package, lower IQ (2.0µA), 600mV dropout @ 250mA. | Limited to fixed-output use cases; unsuitable for adjustable or high-input-voltage (>16V) applications. | Choose only for cost-sensitive, low-current, fixed-rail designs where footprint and ultra-low IQ outweigh adjustability needs. |
Compared with AP2204MP-ADJTRG1, AP2210MP-ADJTRG1 trades higher quiescent current for doubled output capability, while MCP1703T-3302E/MB sacrifices adjustability and input range for ultra-low standby power in compact SOT-23-5 layouts.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for stable regulation with AP2204MP-ADJTRG1?
The minimum recommended input voltage is the larger of 2.6V or VOUT + 1V. For example, if configured for 7.6V output, VIN must be ≥8.6V to avoid dropout. Below this threshold, output voltage regulation degrades and ripple rejection falls significantly per datasheet Section 6.2.
Can AP2204MP-ADJTRG1 be used with ceramic output capacitors?
Yes - it is explicitly designed for compatibility with low-ESR ceramic capacitors (minimum 2.2µF). The datasheet confirms stability with X5R/X7R types and specifies no ESR requirements, simplifying layout and reducing BOM count versus tantalum-based alternatives.
How does the EN pin behave during power-up and shutdown?
The EN pin is active-high with 2.0V threshold. When pulled high, startup time is typically 80µs to reach 90% of final VOUT. When pulled low, output disables within 1µs and ground current drops to ≤1.0µA, enabling rapid system-level power gating in battery-critical applications.
Is AP2204MP-ADJTRG1 qualified for automotive applications?
No - it is rated for -40°C to +85°C ambient and lacks AEC-Q100 qualification. Diodes states that automotive-grade versions require specific change control, PPAP capability, and IATF 16949 manufacturing; this part is intended for industrial and consumer portable equipment only.
