Product details
Overview
AP7312-1533W6-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a dual-channel, 150mA low-dropout linear regulator with independent enable inputs (EN1/EN2), fixed 1.5V and 3.3V outputs, 60μA quiescent current, and 150mV dropout at full load - designed for power rail separation in portable baseband subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the AP7312-1533W6-7 datasheet, AP7312-1533W6-7 pinout, AP7312-1533W6-7 application, or AP7312-1533W6-7 equivalent, this device supports fast transient response in GSM/TDMA burst-mode loads, stable operation with 1μF ceramic output capacitors, and independent channel control for dynamic power sequencing in space-constrained mobile designs.
Technical Context
The AP7312 integrates two independent LDO channels sharing input and ground terminals but featuring separate EN1/EN2 control and OUT1/OUT2 outputs. Each channel uses a PMOS pass element with bandgap reference, error amplifier, and thermal shutdown circuitry - enabling simultaneous regulation of asymmetric voltage rails without cross-talk.
Its fast transient response (≤150μs start-up, <20mV undershoot/overshoot under 100mA load steps) stems from internal compensation optimized for 1μF ceramic output capacitors and low-ESR stability. The 65dB PSRR at 1kHz and ±2% output accuracy across –40°C to +85°C support noise-sensitive analog and RF supply domains.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 1.5V (OUT1) and 3.3V (OUT2) - fixed, non-adjustable, enabling direct replacement of discrete single-LDO solutions in dual-rail systems. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA per channel - sufficient to power low-power microcontrollers, sensors, or RF front-end bias circuits without external boost stages. |
| Quiescent Current | 60μA (both channels active) - minimizes standby power loss in battery-operated devices with extended sleep cycles. |
| Dropout Voltage | 150mV at 150mA (for VOUT ≥ 2.5V) - allows operation from 3.45V input to sustain 3.3V rail, critical for Li-ion battery discharge profiles. |
| PSRR | 65dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC-DC converters feeding shared input rails. |
| Start-up Time | 150μs - enables rapid wake-up from deep-sleep states in Bluetooth headsets and wearables without voltage droop-induced resets. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C ambient - validated for consumer handheld environments including thermal cycling during charging/discharging. |
Pinout & Package
SOT26 package: 6-pin surface-mount with exposed thermal pad (not electrically connected), 1.75mm × 2.9mm footprint, 1.3mm height - optimized for high-density PCB layouts in smartphones and wearables.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OUT2 (Pin 1) | Regulated 3.3V output | Must be bypassed with ≥1μF ceramic capacitor to GND; connects to 3.3V logic or I/O peripherals requiring clean supply. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Power and signal reference | Shared ground return for both LDO channels; requires low-impedance plane connection to minimize noise coupling. |
| EN2 (Pin 3) | Active-high enable for OUT2 | Pull high ≥1.4V to activate 3.3V rail; pull ≤0.4V to shut down - used for power-gating peripheral subsystems. |
| EN1 (Pin 4) | Active-high enable for OUT1 | Independent control of 1.5V rail; enables staggered power-up sequences to avoid inrush current peaks. |
| IN (Pin 5) | Input supply (2V–6V) | Requires ≥1μF ceramic decoupling to GND; accepts partially regulated DC-DC output or battery input directly. |
| OUT1 (Pin 6) | Regulated 1.5V output | Bypassed with ≥1μF ceramic capacitor; powers core logic or low-voltage memory interfaces needing tight tolerance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent enable inputs | EN1/EN2 allow per-rail power sequencing - e.g., bring up 1.5V core before enabling 3.3V I/O to meet processor boot requirements. |
| Stable with 1μF ceramic output caps | Eliminates need for larger tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors - reduces board area and cost in compact modules. |
| Fast load transient response | Maintains <±20mV regulation during 0→150mA load steps - prevents brown-out in DSPs or GSM transceivers during transmit bursts. |
| Thermal shutdown with hysteresis | Shuts down at 165°C junction temperature and re-enables at 135°C - prevents latch-up during sustained high-power operation in sealed enclosures. |
| Low EMI operation | No switching noise; PSRR >60dB up to 10kHz - avoids interference with sensitive RF receivers co-located on same PCB. |
Applications
| Cellular Baseband Power | Bluetooth Audio Subsystem |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP7345D-1533FM-7 | Successor part with 30μA IQ, 120mV dropout, and improved PSRR (70dB @1kHz); same SOT26/DFN2018-6 footprints. | Designed for next-gen portable designs requiring longer battery life and tighter noise margins in RF sections. | Select for new designs where 50% lower quiescent current and enhanced transient immunity justify redesign effort. |
| MCP1826S-1503I/DB | Microchip dual LDO with 1.5V/3.3V outputs, 85μA IQ, 200mV dropout, and wider input range (1.8V–6.0V). | Lacks independent EN pins; uses single enable for both channels - unsuitable for staggered power sequencing. | Consider only if board layout constraints prevent use of AP7345D and independent enable is not required. |
Compared with AP7312-1533W6-7, the AP7345D offers halved quiescent current and superior PSRR for noise-critical RF rails, while the MCP1826S trades independent control for broader input compatibility - making the AP7312 optimal only for legacy designs retaining its specific sequencing capability.

FAQ
What is the recommended input capacitor for AP7312-1533W6-7?
A minimum 1μF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor placed between IN and GND is required for stability and input noise suppression. Larger values (e.g., 4.7μF) improve line transient response but are not necessary for basic operation. The capacitor must be located within 2mm of the IN and GND pins using wide copper traces to minimize inductance and ensure reliable startup under fast input voltage ramps.
Can AP7312-1533W6-7 operate with a 1.8V input supply?
No - the absolute minimum input voltage is 2.0V per the datasheet's Recommended Operating Conditions. At 1.8V input, the 3.3V output channel cannot maintain regulation due to insufficient headroom (minimum dropout is 150mV, requiring ≥3.45V input for 3.3V output). For 1.8V input applications, consider the AP7345D series which supports down to 1.7V input.
How does thermal shutdown behave during continuous overload?
When junction temperature reaches 165°C, the AP7312 disables both outputs and enters thermal shutdown. It remains off until temperature drops to ~135°C (30°C hysteresis), then automatically resumes regulation. Under sustained overload (e.g., 150mA at VIN=6V), this cycle repeats at ~1–2Hz depending on PCB thermal mass - protecting the device but indicating inadequate heatsinking or excessive power dissipation.
Is AP7312-1533W6-7 RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes - AP7312-1533W6-7 uses lead-free finish and complies with EU Directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS), including all applicable exemptions. The molding compound is "Green" (halogen-free, no Br/Sb), and the SOT26 package meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) for unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/85% RH.
