Product details
Overview
AP2210K-3.3TRG1 from Diodes Incorporated is a 300mA ultra-low dropout (ULDO) linear regulator with fixed 3.3V output, 250mV typical dropout at full load, ±1% output voltage accuracy, and 75dB PSRR at 100Hz-designed for RF power supply filtering in cellular handsets and noise-sensitive wireless transceivers.
For engineers reviewing the AP2210K-3.3TRG1 datasheet, AP2210K-3.3TRG1 pinout, AP2210K-3.3TRG1 application, or AP2210K-3.3TRG1 equivalent, this device delivers verified low-noise regulation, logic-compatible enable control, reverse-current protection, thermal shutdown, and SOT-23-5 package compatibility for space-constrained battery-powered systems.
Technical Context
The AP2210K-3.3TRG1 integrates a bandgap reference, current-limit circuitry, and thermal shutdown into a single-pass transistor architecture. Its BYP/ADJ pin accepts a 100pF capacitor to reduce output noise to 260nV/√Hz, enabling clean biasing of RF front-end ICs.
It operates across -40°C to +125°C junction temperature with input voltage range 4.3V–13.2V (VOUT+1V minimum), supports CMOS/TTL enable logic (VIH ≥ 2.0V, VIL ≤ 0.4V), and maintains stable regulation under 0.1mA–300mA load with <6mV load regulation error.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±1% - ensures precise core/bias rail compliance for 3.3V logic and RF ICs |
| Dropout Voltage | 250mV typ. at 300mA - enables operation from 4.3V input while maintaining regulation in Li-ion single-cell systems |
| PSRR | 75dB at 100Hz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC-DC converters feeding RF sections |
| Standby Current | 1µA max. - extends battery life during system sleep modes in portable devices |
| Output Noise | 260nV/√Hz - meets stringent spectral purity requirements for LNA and mixer bias supplies |
| Enable Threshold | VIH = 2.0V min., VIL = 0.4V max. - interfaces directly with 1.8V/3.3V GPIO without level-shifting |
| Thermal Protection | Internally limited - prevents latch-up or damage during sustained overload or poor PCB heatsinking |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 package: 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm body, matte tin-plated leads, RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VIN) | Input voltage supply | Accepts 4.3V–13.2V; requires 1.0µF ceramic input capacitor for stability |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Common return path for input, output, and enable; must be low-impedance for PSRR performance |
| 3 (EN) | Enable control input | CMOS/TTL-compatible; high = active, low = shutdown (1µA ISTD) |
| 4 (BYP/ADJ) | Bypass/adjust node | Connects 100pF capacitor to GND to minimize output noise; not used in fixed-output versions |
| 5 (VOUT) | Regulated output | Delivers 3.3V ±1% at up to 300mA; requires 2.2µF ceramic output capacitor for stability |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low dropout | 250mV @ 300mA enables use with aging or partially discharged batteries |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ULDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700-3302E/TO | 250mA output, 600mV dropout at 250mA, no BYP pin, 17µA quiescent current | Lacks noise-reduction bypass capability; higher dropout limits low-VIN operation | Choose when cost sensitivity outweighs RF noise performance and battery headroom constraints |
| TLS820B2ELVSE | Automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualified, 500mA, 200mV dropout, integrated watchdog timer | Designed for automotive infotainment; includes fail-safe monitoring not needed in consumer portables | Choose only for automotive programs requiring PPAP documentation and extended temperature validation |
Compared with MCP1700-3302E/TO and TLS820B2ELVSE, the AP2210K-3.3TRG1 uniquely balances ultra-low noise (260nV/√Hz), ultra-low dropout (250mV), and 1µA shutdown-making it optimal for battery-powered RF systems where spectral purity and energy efficiency are co-critical.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for AP2210K-3.3TRG1 to maintain regulation?
The recommended minimum input voltage is 4.3V (VOUT + 1.0V), per the datasheet's operating condition guidance. At 300mA load, the 250mV typical dropout means regulation is maintained down to 3.55V input-but 4.3V ensures full PSRR performance and margin against line/load transients. Input below 4.3V risks degraded ripple rejection and potential dropout under dynamic load.
Does AP2210K-3.3TRG1 require an external bypass capacitor on the BYP pin?
Yes-the BYP pin (Pin 4) must be connected to ground via a 100pF ceramic capacitor to achieve the specified 260nV/√Hz output noise. This capacitor stabilizes the internal reference and reduces high-frequency noise coupling. Omitting it degrades noise performance but does not affect basic regulation functionality.
Can AP2210K-3.3TRG1 be used in automotive applications?
The AP2210K-3.3TRG1 is not AEC-Q100 qualified and lacks automotive-specific qualification documentation. While its -40°C to +125°C operating range meets ambient temperature requirements, Diodes explicitly states that automotive-grade variants require separate part numbers and PPAP-capable manufacturing-so this variant is intended for commercial/industrial portable electronics only.
How does reverse current protection function in AP2210K-3.3TRG1?
Reverse current protection blocks conduction from VOUT to VIN when the input supply is removed or falls below the output voltage-preventing battery drain or unintended powering of upstream circuits. This is implemented via an internal MOSFET structure that remains off unless VIN > VOUT + VTH, eliminating the need for an external blocking diode in battery backup paths.
