Product details
Overview
AP7315-22FS4-7B from Diodes Incorporated is a 2.2V fixed-output, 150mA low-dropout linear regulator with ±1% output voltage accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 1kHz, 60µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz), and 35µA quiescent current. It features CMOS-based architecture, enable control, and is optimized for RF supply and portable media applications requiring stable, low-noise biasing.
For engineers reviewing the AP7315-22FS4-7B datasheet, AP7315-22FS4-7B pinout, AP7315-22FS4-7B application, or AP7315-22FS4-7B equivalent, this LDO delivers verified performance in compact X2-DFN1010-4 packaging with validated thermal dissipation via exposed thermal pad, precise enable threshold (1.3V high, 0.5V low), and guaranteed 150mA load capability across –40°C to +85°C.
Technical Context
The AP7315-22FS4-7B integrates a precision voltage reference, error amplifier, current-limit circuit, and CMOS pass transistor - enabling fast line/load transient response and stable operation with only 0.47µF input/output ceramic capacitors. Its non-discharge architecture maintains output voltage during shutdown without external discharge path.
Designed for low-power handheld systems, it operates from 1.7V to 5.25V input, achieves dropout as low as 210mV at 150mA (for VOUT = 2.2V), and provides EN-controlled on/off functionality with <1.0µA standby current. The thermal pad is internally unconnected but recommended for PCB copper tie to GND for enhanced thermal performance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.2V ±1% - ensures stable bias for 2.2V logic rails or analog sensors without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA - sufficient for powering RF transceivers, camera modules, or baseband ICs in portable devices. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters in mixed-signal PCBs. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - minimizes phase jitter in clock-sensitive circuits like RF synthesizers. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA typical - extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes or standby modes of wireless adapters. |
| Dropout Voltage | 210mV at 150mA - enables regulation from 2.41V input, supporting single-cell Li-ion or Li-poly battery operation. |
| Enable Threshold | VEN(H) = 1.3V min, VEN(L) = 0.5V max - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIOs without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
X2-DFN1010-4 package: 1.0mm × 1.0mm, 0.4mm pitch, 4-pin leadless DFN with exposed thermal pad (non-electrical, recommended for GND-connected copper pour).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VOUT (Pin 1) | Regulated power output | Delivers clean 2.2V to load; requires 0.47µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin for stability. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Power ground reference | Primary return path for load current; must connect directly to low-impedance ground plane. |
| EN (Pin 3) | Enable control input | Active-high logic input; floating state disables regulator - tie to VIN if always-on operation required. |
| VIN (Pin 4) | Unregulated input supply | Accepts 1.7–5.25V; requires 0.47µF decoupling capacitor placed within 2mm of pin to suppress supply glitches. |
| Thermal Pad | Thermal dissipation surface | Non-functional terminal; solder to ≥25mm² GND copper area to maintain TJ ≤ 125°C at 150mA. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low noise output | 60µVrms enables use in RF front-end biasing without degrading SNR or EVM. |
| High PSRR at audio frequencies | 75dB at 1kHz rejects ripple from buck converters powering baseband processors. |
| Sub-1µA shutdown current | 0.01µA typical ISTANDBY preserves battery charge during deep sleep in IoT endpoints. |
| Wide input voltage range | 1.7–5.25V supports direct connection to single-cell batteries or multi-rail system supplies. |
| CMOS process technology | Enables low RDS(ON), no reverse current flow, and compatibility with low-VGS control signals. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700-2202E/TO | 250mA output, 6µA IQ, SOT23-5 package, no enable pin - requires external pull-up for always-on use. | Lacks EN control; higher output current margin but larger footprint and no shutdown mode. | Choose when ultra-low IQ dominates over enable flexibility and board space is not constrained. |
| Torex XC6206P222MR-G | 150mA output, 1.0µA IQ, SOT23-3, fixed 2.2V, no enable - simpler interface but no active control. | No enable function; lower IQ benefits long-term battery life but eliminates dynamic power gating. | Prefer for cost-sensitive, always-on applications where enable control is unnecessary and standby current is critical. |
Compared with MCP1700-2202E/TO and XC6206P222MR-G, the AP7315-22FS4-7B uniquely combines 35µA IQ, integrated enable, ±1% accuracy, and 1.0mm² X2-DFN1010-4 packaging - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-powered RF and imaging subsystems requiring both precision and controllability.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for AP7315-22FS4-7B?
The absolute maximum input voltage is 6.0V. Operation beyond this risks permanent damage. For reliable continuous use, the recommended input range is 1.7V to 5.25V - ensuring proper regulation while maintaining thermal safety margins at full 150mA load.
Does AP7315-22FS4-7B include an internal discharge path for VOUT during shutdown?
No. AP7315-22FS4-7B is the non-discharge variant (indicated by absence of "D" in part number). When disabled, VOUT remains floating unless externally discharged. For automatic VOUT discharge, select AP7315D-22FS4-7B, which integrates a 30Ω NMOS discharge switch between VOUT and GND.
Can AP7315-22FS4-7B be used with ceramic capacitors smaller than 0.47µF?
No. The datasheet specifies 0.47µF minimum for both CIN and COUT to ensure stability and transient response. Using smaller values may cause oscillation or excessive overshoot during load steps. Low-ESR X5R/X7R ceramics are mandatory; tantalum or aluminum electrolytics are not recommended.
How should the thermal pad on the X2-DFN1010-4 package be handled in PCB layout?
The thermal pad is electrically isolated and must not serve as a functional GND connection. Instead, connect it to a ≥25mm² copper pour tied to the main GND plane using ≥4 thermal vias (0.3mm diameter). This configuration reduces junction-to-board thermal resistance to ~120°C/W, preventing thermal shutdown at rated load.
