Product details
Overview
AP7315-11W5-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 150mA low-dropout linear regulator with fixed 1.1V output, ±1% accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 1kHz, 60µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz), and 35µA quiescent current. It operates from 1.7V to 5.25V input and delivers stable power to noise-sensitive RF supply rails in portable wireless devices.
For engineers reviewing the AP7315-11W5-7 datasheet, AP7315-11W5-7 pinout, AP7315-11W5-7 application, or AP7315-11W5-7 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, package-specific pin functions, real-world use cases, and validated alternative options for low-noise, low-power LDO selection in space-constrained handheld designs.
Technical Context
The AP7315-11W5-7 uses a CMOS-based architecture with integrated voltage reference, error amplifier, and current-limit circuitry. Its enable-controlled operation supports dynamic power sequencing, while its non-discharge output variant maintains load-side voltage during shutdown.
Designed for high PSRR and ultra-low noise, it achieves 75dB ripple rejection at 1kHz and 60µVrms integrated noise across 10Hz–100kHz - critical for powering RF transceivers and precision analog blocks where supply-induced jitter or spectral contamination must be minimized.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.1V ±1% - ensures precise biasing of low-voltage logic and RF ICs without external feedback network. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA - sufficient for powering baseband processors, sensor interfaces, or single-channel RF front-ends. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters in mixed-signal PCB layouts. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - prevents phase noise degradation in VCOs and ADC reference supplies. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA typical - enables multi-day battery life in always-on sensor nodes and standby communication modules. |
| Input Voltage Range | 1.7V to 5.25V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion, Li-poly, or regulated 3.3V/5V system rails. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.50V max at 150mA (for 1.1V output) - allows regulation down to ~1.6V input, extending usable battery range. |
Pinout & Package
SOT25 (5-pin) package with exposed thermal pad; optimized for compact layout and thermal performance in portable PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 – VIN | Power input | Accepts 1.7V–5.25V; requires local 0.47µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| 2 – GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for input/output currents; must connect to low-impedance ground plane for stability and noise control. |
| 3 – EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input; drives regulator ON when ≥1.3V, OFF when ≤0.5V; must not float. |
| 4 – NC | No-connect | Internally unconnected; recommended to tie to GND for improved thermal dissipation and EMI shielding. |
| 5 – VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers 1.1V ±1% at up to 150mA; requires 0.47µF ceramic output capacitor placed near load and GND. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - mitigates coupling from noisy switchers in PMIC-integrated systems. |
| Ultra-low noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - preserves signal integrity in RF receiver chains and high-resolution ADC references. |
| Low IQ | 35µA typical - reduces standby power loss in battery-powered IoT endpoints and wearables. |
| Wide input range | 1.7V–5.25V - supports direct connection to single-cell batteries or post-regulation rails without intermediate conversion. |
| ±1% output accuracy | Guaranteed over temperature and line/load - eliminates need for external trimming in production calibration. |
Applications
| RF Power Amplifier Bias | Low-Power Microcontroller Core Supply |
|---|---|
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-noise, low-IQ LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP7315-11SA-7 | SOT23-3 package (3-pin), no EN pin, no NC terminal - simpler enable-free operation. | Lacks enable control; unsuitable for power-gated domains requiring dynamic on/off sequencing. | Select when board space permits larger SOT23 footprint and enable functionality is unnecessary. |
| MCP1700T-1102E/TT | Microchip 150mA LDO; 1.1V output, ±2% accuracy, 65dB PSRR @1kHz, 55µVrms noise, 1.6µA IQ. | Lower IQ but higher output tolerance and lower PSRR - less effective in RF-noise-critical paths. | Prefer for ultra-low-power sensor nodes where noise immunity is secondary to battery longevity. |
Compared with AP7315-11W5-7, the AP7315-11SA-7 sacrifices enable control for reduced pin count and cost, while the MCP1700T-1102E/TT trades PSRR and accuracy for sub-µA quiescent current - making each suitable for distinct trade-off priorities in portable power design.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable input voltage for AP7315-11W5-7?
The absolute maximum input voltage is 6.0V, but the recommended operating range is 1.7V to 5.25V. Exceeding 5.25V may cause permanent damage or degrade long-term reliability, even if within absolute ratings. Operation above 5.25V voids guaranteed specifications per the datasheet's Recommended Operating Conditions table.
Does AP7315-11W5-7 include output discharge functionality?
No. The "W5" suffix indicates SOT25 packaging and non-discharge configuration. The AP7315-11W5-7 holds output voltage after shutdown - unlike the "D"-suffixed variants (e.g., AP7315D-11W5-7), which integrate an internal discharge FET to rapidly pull VOUT to GND when disabled.
Can AP7315-11W5-7 operate with ceramic output capacitors smaller than 0.47µF?
The datasheet specifies 0.47µF as the minimum recommended value for stability and transient response. Using smaller capacitance risks oscillation or degraded load step recovery, particularly under 150mA load conditions. Lower ESR ceramics may improve performance, but capacitance must remain ≥0.47µF per Electrical Characteristics and Application Information sections.
Is the NC pin on AP7315-11W5-7 required to be grounded?
While internally unconnected, the NC pin (Pin 4) is recommended to be tied to GND in PCB layout. This practice maximizes copper area for thermal dissipation and improves EMI shielding - both confirmed in the Pin Descriptions and Layout Considerations sections of the official datasheet (DS38352 Rev. 2-2).
