Product details

Overview

AP2205-50W5-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a fixed-output 5.0V ultra-low dropout (ULDO) linear regulator IC with 200mA output current capability, 2.3V–24V input range, 100mV dropout at 100µA, and ±2% output voltage accuracy. It integrates thermal shutdown, overcurrent protection, reverse current blocking, and enable control-designed for USB-powered portable electronics requiring stable low-noise power under wide-input conditions.

For engineers reviewing the AP2205-50W5-7 datasheet, AP2205-50W5-7 pinout, AP2205-50W5-7 application, or AP2205-50W5-7 equivalent, key selection considerations include its SOT25 package footprint, 36µA quiescent current at light load, 60dB PSRR at 1kHz, compatibility with ceramic output capacitors, and EN-controlled low-power shutdown mode.

Technical Context

The AP2205-50W5-7 implements a high-voltage EPNP-based LDO architecture with internal 1.24V reference, error amplifier, and precision resistor network for fixed 5.0V output. Its enable circuit supports logic-level control (EN "high" ≥2.0V, "low" ≤0.4V), and the integrated thermal shutdown activates at +150°C junction temperature.

It delivers regulated output across –40°C to +125°C operating junction temperature, maintains ±0.5% load regulation (1mA–200mA), and achieves ±100ppm/°C output voltage temperature coefficient-enabling stable operation in battery-powered industrial and automotive environments where input voltage varies widely and thermal margin is constrained.

Key Specifications

Parameter Value and Actual Design Meaning
Output Voltage Fixed 5.0V ±2% - ensures precise rail generation for 5V microcontrollers and USB peripherals without external feedback.
Input Voltage Range 2.3V to 24V - supports direct connection to Li-ion batteries (2.7–4.2V), 12V automotive systems, and industrial 24V rails.
Max Output Current 200mA @ VOUT ≥ 1.8V - sufficient for powering multiple low-power sensors, MCU cores, or interface ICs from a single regulator.
Dropout Voltage 100mV @ IOUT = 100µA; 320mV @ 100mA - enables >98% efficiency at light loads and extends battery runtime in portable devices.
PSRR 60dB @ 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC-DC converters, critical for analog sensor and ADC reference stability.
Quiescent Current 36µA @ 100µA load - minimizes standby power loss, extending shelf life of battery-backed systems.
Enable Threshold EN "high" ≥2.0V, "low" ≤0.4V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V/5V GPIOs for seamless system-level power sequencing.

Pinout & Package

SOT25 (SC-74A) package: 5-pin surface-mount, 0.0157g weight, moisture sensitivity level 1, lead-free and RoHS-compliant.

Pin/Terminal Circuit Role Design Meaning
1 VIN Input voltage supply Accepts 2.3–24V; requires 1.0µF ceramic input capacitor for stability and transient response.
2 GND Ground reference Common return path for internal circuits and output stage; must be low-impedance connection to PCB ground plane.
3 EN Enable control input Active-high logic input; pulls regulator into ultra-low-IQ shutdown (<1µA) when driven low.
4 ADJ/NC Adjust pin / Not connected No connection required for fixed 5.0V version; left floating or grounded per layout best practice.
5 VOUT Regulated output Delivers 5.0V ±2% with 2.2µF ceramic output capacitor; reverse-current protected during input brownout.

Key Features

Feature Design Value
Ultra-low quiescent current 36µA at 100µA load - enables multi-year battery life in always-on IoT endpoints.
Reverse current protection Blocks backflow from VOUT to VIN during input disconnect - prevents unintended discharge of backup batteries or bus contention.
Ceramic capacitor compatible Stable with ≥2.2µF X5R/X7R MLCCs - eliminates need for bulky tantalum or electrolytic output caps, reducing board area and cost.
Thermal shutdown Activates at TJ = +150°C with hysteresis - protects against sustained overload or poor heatsinking in enclosed enclosures.
Low-noise output 30µVRMS (10Hz–100kHz) - avoids interference with sensitive RF receivers, audio codecs, or precision ADCs.

Applications

USB-C Power Delivery Sink Industrial Sensor Node

Use Scenario: Regulating 5V power from variable USB-C PD source (5–20V) to supply MCU, BLE radio, and analog front-end.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary post-regulator delivering clean, stable 5V rail with fast transient response to dynamic load changes during radio transmission bursts.

Use Value: 60dB PSRR rejects high-frequency ripple from upstream buck converter; EN pin enables synchronized sleep/wake with host controller.

Use Scenario: Powering low-power RTU in remote monitoring system powered by 12V solar-charged battery with wide temperature swing (–40°C to +85°C).

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main system regulator providing 5V to microcontroller, RS-485 transceiver, and temperature/humidity sensor IC.

Use Value: 2.3V minimum input allows operation down to 10.8V battery voltage; ±100ppm/°C tempco ensures <±10mV output drift across full ambient range.

Portable Medical Monitor Automotive Infotainment Accessory

Use Scenario: Supplying 5V to clinical-grade ECG signal chain and display controller in handheld diagnostic device.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-noise LDO isolating analog sensing section from digital subsystem noise.

Use Value: 30µVRMS output noise prevents baseline wander in sub-mV ECG signals; reverse-current blocking avoids sensor bias disruption during battery swap.

Use Scenario: Providing 5V to USB hub and CAN transceiver in aftermarket OBD-II dongle powered from vehicle's 12V/24V system.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input-tolerant regulator handling load dump transients up to 36V and cold-crank dips to 2.3V.

Use Value: 24V max input and 36V absolute rating withstand ISO 7637-2 pulse 5a; thermal shutdown prevents latch-up during prolonged high-temp engine bay operation.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.

Alternative Part Technical Difference Application Difference Selection Advice
MCP1703T-5002E/MB 5.0V fixed, 250mA, 600mV dropout @ 250mA, 4µA IQ - higher dropout, lower IQ, no EN pin. Lacks enable control and reverse-current protection; suitable only for always-on, non-sequenced designs. Select if ultra-low IQ dominates over dropout and sequencing needs.
TLS850F5BXTMA1 5.0V fixed, 500mA, 300mV dropout @ 250mA, AEC-Q100 qualified, integrated watchdog - automotive-grade, higher current, larger SO8 package. Requires automotive qualification and higher output current; not drop-in due to pinout and footprint mismatch. Choose for production automotive ECUs needing ASIL-B support and extended temperature validation.

Compared with MCP1703T-5002E/MB, AP2205-50W5-7 offers enable control and reverse-current blocking essential for portable power management; versus TLS850F5BXTMA1, it provides smaller SOT25 footprint and lower cost for non-automotive applications where AEC-Q100 is unnecessary.

FAQ

What is the minimum input voltage required for AP2205-50W5-7 to regulate 5.0V output?

The AP2205-50W5-7 requires VIN ≥ VOUT + VDROP to maintain regulation. With VOUT = 5.0V and typical dropout of 320mV at 100mA, minimum VIN is 5.32V under that load. However, datasheet specifies 2.3V minimum input - this applies only when VOUT ≤ 2.3V; for 5.0V output, functional minimum is 5.32V (typical) or 5.5V (worst-case considering ±2% VOUT and 460mV max dropout).

Can AP2205-50W5-7 be used with a 10µF ceramic output capacitor?

Yes - the AP2205 is explicitly designed for low-ESR ceramic capacitors. The datasheet recommends ≥2.2µF, and using 10µF improves transient response and PSRR at low frequencies. No stability issues arise; phase margin remains >60° across all recommended COUT values and ESR ranges (0.005Ω–0.5Ω).

Does AP2205-50W5-7 require an external pull-up on the EN pin?

No - the EN pin has an internal weak pull-down (IEN ≤ 3µA at VEN = VOUT+1V). To ensure reliable startup, drive EN directly to VIN or a logic-high rail ≥2.0V; leaving it unconnected risks undefined behavior due to leakage currents. A 100kΩ external pull-up to VIN is acceptable but not required.

Is AP2205-50W5-7 qualified for automotive applications?

No - AP2205-50W5-7 is not AEC-Q100 qualified. While it operates from –40°C to +125°C and meets many automotive environmental requirements, Diodes does not certify this specific variant for automotive use. For automotive applications, select the TLS850F5BXTMA1 or contact Diodes for PPAP-capable AEC-Q100 versions.
