Product details
Overview
AP2210K-2.8TRG1 from Diodes Incorporated is a 300mA ultra-low dropout (ULDO) linear regulator with fixed 2.8V output, 250mV dropout at full load, ±1% output accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 100Hz, and 1µA shutdown current. It serves as a low-noise power supply for RF front-end circuits, cellular handset baseband ICs, and portable wireless transceivers requiring stable voltage under tight input headroom.
For engineers reviewing the AP2210K-2.8TRG1 datasheet, AP2210K-2.8TRG1 pinout, AP2210K-2.8TRG1 application, or AP2210K-2.8TRG1 equivalent, this device is selected for battery-powered RF systems where dropout voltage, output noise, and standby current directly impact signal integrity and runtime.
Technical Context
The AP2210K-2.8TRG1 uses a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout operation independent of load current variation across temperature. Its bandgap reference and error amplifier deliver tight line/load regulation (≤4.5mV/≤6mV) and low temperature coefficient (42.8ppm/°C).
It integrates CMOS/TTL-compatible enable control, thermal shutdown, overcurrent protection, and reverse current blocking. The BYP pin supports external 100pF capacitor to reduce output noise to 260nV/√Hz, critical for RF LNA and mixer biasing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.8V ±1% - ensures precise biasing of 2.8V-tolerant RF ICs without external feedback components. |
| Dropout Voltage | 250mV at 300mA - enables operation from 3.05V input (e.g., single Li-ion cell at end-of-discharge) while maintaining regulation. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 100Hz - suppresses low-frequency power supply ripple from switching converters feeding RF sections. |
| Standby Current | 1µA max - extends battery life in sleep modes of handheld transceivers and IoT edge nodes. |
| Output Noise | 260nV/√Hz - minimizes phase noise degradation in VCOs and local oscillator chains. |
| Enable Threshold | VIH = 2.0V, VIL = 0.4V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIOs for seamless system-level power sequencing. |
| Thermal Protection | 150°C junction shutdown - prevents damage during sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
Pinout & Package
AP2210K-2.8TRG1 is packaged in SOT-23-5, a 5-pin surface-mount package with matte tin-plated leads, RoHS-compliant and halogen-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VIN) | Input voltage supply | Accepts 3.8V–13.2V input; minimum 3.05V required for 300mA load at 2.8V output. |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Common return path for input, output, and internal circuitry; requires low-impedance PCB connection. |
| 3 (EN) | Enable control input | Active-high logic input; pulls high ≥2.0V to enable regulator, ≤0.4V to enter 1µA shutdown mode. |
| 4 (BYP/ADJ) | Bypass capacitor terminal | Connects 100pF capacitor to GND to reduce output noise; not used for fixed-output versions (no adjustment function). |
| 5 (VOUT) | Regulated output | Delivers 2.8V ±1% to load; requires 2.2µF ceramic output capacitor for stability and PSRR performance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low dropout | 250mV at 300mA enables use with single-cell Li-ion (2.8V + 0.25V headroom) without brownout. |
| RF-optimized noise performance | 260nV/√Hz output noise with 100pF BYP capacitor meets stringent spectral purity requirements of 5G FR1 receivers. |
| Reverse current protection | Blocks backflow from VOUT to VIN during shutdown or input removal-prevents battery drain in multi-rail systems. |
| ESR-stable operation | Stable with 2.2µF X5R/X7R ceramic output capacitors-eliminates need for costly tantalum or polymer types. |
| Overtemperature shutdown | 150°C thermal limit with automatic recovery after cooldown-supports unattended operation in sealed enclosures. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for AP2210K-2.8TRG1 to maintain regulation at 300mA load?
The minimum input voltage is 3.05V, calculated as VOUT + VDROP = 2.8V + 0.25V. At this input, the device delivers full 300mA with output voltage within ±1% tolerance. Operation below 3.05V results in dropout and unregulated output.
Can AP2210K-2.8TRG1 be used without the BYP capacitor in non-RF applications?
Yes. The BYP pin is left unconnected in fixed-output configurations; omitting the 100pF capacitor reduces output noise performance but does not affect basic regulation. PSRR remains at 75dB and dropout voltage unchanged-suitable for digital logic rails where noise is less critical.
Does AP2210K-2.8TRG1 require an input capacitor, and what value is recommended?
Yes. A 1.0µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor is required at VIN to stabilize the internal control loop and suppress high-frequency input transients. Placement within 2mm of VIN and GND pins is critical; larger values (e.g., 10µF) may improve transient response but are not necessary for stability.
How does the thermal shutdown behavior of AP2210K-2.8TRG1 operate during continuous overload?
When junction temperature reaches 150°C, the device shuts down output and disables pass transistor. It remains latched off until temperature drops below ~135°C, then automatically resumes regulation. This hysteresis prevents cycling and protects both the IC and downstream circuitry during sustained fault conditions.
