Product details
Overview
AP7315-135W5-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 150mA low-dropout linear regulator with fixed 1.35V output, ±1% accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 1kHz, 60µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz), and 35µA quiescent current. It features enable control, operates from 1.7V to 5.25V input, and targets RF supply rails in compact portable devices.
For engineers reviewing the AP7315-135W5-7 datasheet, AP7315-135W5-7 pinout, AP7315-135W5-7 application, or AP7315-135W5-7 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SOT25 package layout, real-world load transient behavior, thermal design guidance, and validated alternative LDOs for low-noise power delivery in space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The AP7315-135W5-7 uses a CMOS-based architecture with integrated voltage reference, error amplifier, and current-limit circuitry. Its EN pin provides precise on/off control with 0.5V max logic-low threshold and 1.3V min logic-high threshold, enabling low-power shutdown states.
It achieves stable regulation under dynamic loads up to 150mA with dropout as low as 0.50V at 1.35V output and supports ceramic output capacitors ≥0.47µF. The device exhibits ±30ppm/°C output voltage temperature coefficient and maintains 75dB ripple rejection across 1kHz while delivering ultra-low 60µVrms noise.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.35V ±1% - ensures stable biasing for low-voltage RF ICs without external feedback network. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA - sufficient for powering baseband processors, RF transceivers, or sensor signal chains in handheld devices. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC-DC converters feeding noisy system rails. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - minimizes phase noise degradation in VCOs and LNAs requiring clean analog supply. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA typical - extends battery life in always-on subsystems like Bluetooth LE receivers or wake-on-event circuits. |
| Input Voltage Range | 1.7V to 5.25V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2V), Li-polymer, or regulated 3.3V/5V system rails. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.50V at 150mA (1.35V VOUT) - enables operation down to ~1.85V input, preserving headroom in brownout conditions. |
Pinout & Package
SOT25 (5-pin, 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm) package with exposed thermal pad. Requires PCB copper pour connected to GND for optimal thermal performance (θJA ≈ 200°C/W on JEDEC High-K board).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 – VIN | Power input | Accepts 1.7–5.25V; requires 0.47µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin to suppress supply glitches. |
| 2 – GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for load current and internal bias; must connect directly to low-impedance ground plane. |
| 3 – EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input; drives regulator ON when ≥1.3V, OFF when ≤0.5V; must not float-tie to VIN if unused. |
| 4 – NC | No-connect | Internally unconnected; recommended to tie to GND to maximize PCB copper area for thermal dissipation. |
| 5 – VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers 1.35V ±1% to load; requires 0.47µF ceramic capacitor placed within 2mm of pin for stability and transient response. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - rejects ripple from switching regulators, critical for RF front-end power integrity. |
| Ultra-low noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - avoids modulation of sensitive analog blocks like ADC references or PLL charge pumps. |
| Low quiescent current | 35µA typical - enables >1-year battery life in coin-cell-powered IoT sensors with periodic wake-up cycles. |
| Wide input range | 1.7V to 5.25V - supports direct connection to Li-ion cells or post-regulated system rails without intermediate buck stage. |
| Thermal-enhanced SOT25 | Exposed thermal pad - reduces junction-to-ambient thermal resistance by ~30% vs. standard SOT23, enabling 150mA continuous operation. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for stable 1.35V output at 150mA?
The AP7315-135W5-7 requires a minimum input voltage of 1.85V to maintain regulation at 150mA load, based on its maximum dropout voltage of 0.50V at that condition. Below 1.85V, output voltage will drop proportionally with input; operation below 1.7V is outside absolute maximum ratings and not guaranteed.
Can the NC pin (Pin 4) be left floating in the SOT25 package?
No-Pin 4 is internally unconnected but must be tied to GND on the PCB. This maximizes copper area for thermal dissipation and improves ground plane integrity near the regulator. Leaving it floating may degrade thermal performance and increase susceptibility to EMI coupling.
Does AP7315-135W5-7 include output discharge functionality?
No-the "-7" suffix and absence of "D" in the part number indicate the non-discharge version. When disabled via EN, the output remains high-impedance and does not actively pull VOUT to GND. For automatic discharge, select AP7315D-135W5-7, which integrates an internal 30Ω NMOS discharge path.
What is the recommended output capacitor value and type for optimal transient response?
A 0.47µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor placed within 2mm of the VOUT and GND pins is recommended. Larger values (e.g., 2.2µF) improve load-step response but require verification against ESR stability limits; avoid high-ESR tantalum or aluminum electrolytics unless paired with low-ESR ceramics.
