Product details
Overview
AP7311-20WG-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 150mA fixed-output (2.0V) low-dropout linear regulator in SOT25 package, featuring 65µA quiescent current, 150mV dropout at full load, and 65dB PSRR at 100Hz. It integrates enable control, thermal shutdown, current limiting, and short-circuit protection - designed for battery-powered portable devices requiring stable, low-power voltage regulation.
For engineers reviewing the AP7311-20WG-7 datasheet, AP7311-20WG-7 pinout, AP7311-20WG-7 application, or AP7311-20WG-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low IQ across 2–6V input range, fast 80µs startup, stability with 1µF ceramic output capacitor, and robust fault protection under transient and overload conditions.
Technical Context
The AP7311-20WG-7 implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture with internal 0.4V bandgap reference and error amplifier, enabling fixed 2.0V output without external feedback components. Its EN pin provides logic-level active-high control with VIH = 1.4V and VIL = 0.4V, supporting direct microcontroller interfacing.
Designed for high-transient environments, it delivers excellent line/load regulation (±0.6% load, 0.01–0.20%/V line) and fast recovery from step-load changes (0→150mA), validated via typical performance curves showing <50mV undershoot/overshoot. Thermal shutdown activates at 140°C with 15°C hysteresis, ensuring safe operation under sustained overload.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.0V ±2% over –40°C to +85°C ambient; enables direct replacement of 2.0V logic rails without resistor network. |
| Quiescent Current | 65µA typical at 150mA load; sustains >1-year battery life in always-on IoT sensors powered by CR2032 cells. |
| Dropout Voltage | 150mV typical at 150mA; allows regulation from 2.2V input - critical for single-cell Li-ion or NiMH systems near end-of-discharge. |
| PSRR | 65dB at 100Hz; suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC-DC converters feeding mixed-signal circuits. |
| Start-up Time | 80µs typical; supports rapid wake-from-standby in GSM/TDMA baseband power sequencing. |
| Protection Features | Integrated current limit (~300mA), short-circuit clamp (~50mA), and thermal shutdown (140°C); eliminates need for external fault-handling circuitry. |
| Capacitor Compatibility | Stable with 1µF X7R/X5R ceramic output capacitor; reduces BOM count and PCB area vs. traditional LDOs requiring ≥10µF tantalum. |
Pinout & Package
SOT25 package: 5-pin, surface-mount, RoHS-compliant "Green" molding compound; footprint matches JEDEC MO-203AA standard with θJA = 190°C/W on 2oz FR-4.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - IN | Input voltage supply | Accepts 2–6V DC; requires ≥1µF ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin to suppress input ripple and ensure stability. |
| 2 - GND | Power ground reference | Common return path for IN, OUT, EN, and internal circuitry; must connect to low-impedance ground plane to minimize noise coupling. |
| 3 - EN | Enable control input | Active-high logic interface (VIH ≥1.4V); tie to IN for always-on operation or drive from GPIO for dynamic power gating. |
| 4 - NC | No connection | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no routing or soldering permitted per datasheet Pin Assignment (fixed-output variant). |
| 5 - OUT | Regulated output | Delivers 2.0V ±2% at up to 150mA; bypassed with 1µF ceramic capacitor directly between OUT and GND for optimal transient response. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 65µA at full 150mA load ensures minimal battery drain during standby - critical for coin-cell–powered wearables. |
| Fast transient response | Controlled undershoot/overshoot (<50mV) during 0→150mA load steps enables reliable powering of burst-mode DSPs and RF ICs. |
| Single-capacitor stability | Guaranteed stability with 1µF ceramic output capacitor eliminates need for ESR tuning or large bulk capacitance. |
| Integrated protection suite | Current limit, short-circuit clamp, and thermal shutdown operate autonomously - no external components required for fault resilience. |
| Wide input voltage range | 2V to 6V operation supports diverse sources: single Li-ion (2.7–4.2V), two alkaline/NiMH (2.0–3.2V), or regulated 3.3V/5V rails. |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | GSM Baseband Power Rails |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Continuous glucose monitor (CGM) with Bluetooth LE radio operating from CR2032 battery. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary 2.0V supply for analog front-end and BLE SoC core logic.

Use Value: Fast transient response maintains <±2% output during 100µA ↔ 150mA load jumps, preventing data corruption or clock jitter. |
| Industrial IoT Edge Nodes | USB-Powered Peripherals |
|
Use Scenario: LoRaWAN sensor node powered by energy-harvested solar cell with variable 2.5–5.5V output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input-stage LDO conditioning harvested voltage to clean 2.0V for ultra-low-power MCU and transceiver. Use Value: 150mV dropout allows regulation down to 2.2V input - maximizing usable harvest window and runtime per charge cycle. |
Use Scenario: USB 2.0 audio interface drawing peak 120mA from 5V bus, requiring isolated 2.0V supply for ADC reference. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Post-regulator generating precision 2.0V reference from noisy USB VBUS, decoupled via 1µF ceramic.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-quiescent-current LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700-2002E/TO | 250mA rating, 1.6µA IQ (lower), but only 4V max input; no EN pin; SOT23-5 footprint differs. | Lacks enable control and thermal shutdown; unsuitable for dynamic power-gating or high-ambient industrial use. | Select when ultra-low IQ dominates and enable/control is unnecessary; verify thermal derating at >60°C ambient. |
| Torex XC6206P202MR-G | 150mA, 1.0µA IQ, 2.0V fixed, SOT23-5; no EN pin; dropout 300mV @150mA (higher). | Higher dropout limits use with sub-2.3V inputs; missing EN and protection features reduce system-level robustness. | Prefer for cost-sensitive, static-bias applications where input stays >2.5V and fault tolerance is secondary. |
Compared with MCP1700-2002E/TO and XC6206P202MR-G, the AP7311-20WG-7 uniquely balances ultra-low IQ (65µA), integrated EN control, full protection suite, and 150mV dropout - making it optimal for battery-constrained, dynamically controlled systems where reliability and input flexibility are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for stable 2.0V output at 150mA?
The AP7311-20WG-7 requires VIN ≥ VOUT + VDropout = 2.0V + 0.15V = 2.15V minimum for full-load regulation. At 25°C and 150mA, typical dropout is 150mV; worst-case (over temperature, process variation) remains ≤300mV per datasheet, so 2.3V ensures margin. Below 2.15V, output collapses nonlinearly.
Can the EN pin be left unconnected, or must it be tied high?
The EN pin must not be left floating - it has no internal pull-up. To ensure continuous operation, tie EN directly to IN (not through a resistor). Leaving it open risks erratic enable/disable behavior due to noise coupling, potentially causing output oscillation or unintended shutdown.
Is a minimum load required for output voltage stability?
No minimum load is required. The AP7311-20WG-7 remains stable and regulated from 0mA to 150mA output current, as confirmed in the datasheet's "No Load Stability" section and electrical characteristics table (IOUT = 0mA test condition included).
How does the 1µF output capacitor affect transient performance compared to larger values?
A 1µF X7R ceramic capacitor meets stability requirements and delivers specified 80µs startup and <50mV load-step deviation. Increasing to 2.2–4.7µF further reduces undershoot/overshoot by ~20–30% and improves high-frequency PSRR, but adds cost and board area - 1µF is the optimal balance for most portable designs.
