Product details
Overview
AP7315-22SR-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 2.2V fixed-output, 150mA low-dropout linear regulator with ±1% output voltage accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 1kHz, and 60µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz). It features CMOS-based architecture, enable control, and ultra-low 35µA quiescent current - designed for powering RF supply rails and camera sensor bias in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the AP7315-22SR-7 datasheet, AP7315-22SR-7 pinout, AP7315-22SR-7 application, or AP7315-22SR-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 150mA (max 0.34V), EN logic thresholds (VIL ≤ 0.5V, VIH ≥ 1.3V), thermal performance in SOT23-3, and compatibility with 0.47µF ceramic input/output capacitors.
Technical Context
The AP7315-22SR-7 implements a CMOS-based LDO architecture with integrated voltage reference, error amplifier, and current-limit circuitry. Its enable input directly controls NMOS pass transistor gate drive, supporting fast turn-on/turn-off transitions without external components.
It operates across 1.7V–5.25V input range while maintaining stable 2.2V output under load transients up to 150mA. The device achieves high PSRR via internal compensation and low-noise biasing, with output stability guaranteed using 0.47µF ceramic capacitors on both input and output.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.2V ±1% - ensures precise biasing for RF ICs and image sensors requiring tight voltage tolerance. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA - supports moderate-power analog blocks like camera ISPs or Bluetooth SoC I/O domains. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.34V max at 150mA - enables operation from 2.54V input, compatible with single-cell Li-ion or boosted 2.5V rails. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC-DC converters feeding shared power planes. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - minimizes phase noise impact on RF synthesizers and ADC reference stability. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA typical - extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes and standby modes of portable media devices. |
| Enable Thresholds | VIL ≤ 0.5V, VIH ≥ 1.3V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIOs without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
AP7315-22SR-7 is housed in the SOT23-3 (SR) package - a 2.9mm × 1.3mm × 1.0mm surface-mount outline with gull-wing leads. Thermal performance is enhanced by direct die attachment to the exposed copper pad on the bottom side, recommended to be connected to PCB ground plane for optimal heat dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 3) | Input power supply connection | Accepts 1.7V–5.25V; requires 0.47µF ceramic capacitor placed within 2mm for stability and transient suppression. |
| GND (Pin 1) | Power ground reference | Must connect to low-impedance PCB ground plane; serves as return path for VIN, VOUT, and EN currents. |
| VOUT (Pin 2) | Regulated output terminal | Delivers 2.2V ±1% to load; requires 0.47µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin for ESR-driven stability. |
| EN (Not present) | Enable control input | Not implemented in SR variant - regulator is permanently enabled; no external pull-up required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 35µA typical - reduces standby power loss in battery-powered systems with intermittent wake cycles. |
| High PSRR at audio frequencies | 75dB @ 1kHz - mitigates ripple from buck converter switching edges before reaching sensitive analog circuits. |
| Low-noise output | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - preserves SNR in camera analog front-ends and RF receiver chains. |
| Guaranteed 150mA output | Full rated current delivered across -40°C to +85°C ambient - eliminates derating in industrial handheld designs. |
| Small-footprint packaging | SOT23-3 (2.9 × 1.3 mm) - enables dense layout in slim smartphones, wireless earbuds, and compact IoT modules. |
Applications
| RF Power Amplifier Bias | Camera Image Sensor Core Supply |

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 | 2.2V fixed, 250mA, 6µA IQ, but only 60dB PSRR @ 1kHz and 120µVrms noise | Lacks RF-grade noise/PSRR performance; suitable for non-sensitive digital I/O, not RF or imaging | Select when ultra-low IQ dominates over noise/PSRR requirements, e.g., long-life sensor nodes |
| Torex XC6210B222MR-G | 2.2V fixed, 150mA, 30µA IQ, 70dB PSRR @ 1kHz, 45µVrms noise, but requires 1µF output cap | Better noise, slightly lower PSRR; needs larger output capacitance than AP7315's 0.47µF minimum | Prefer where lowest possible noise is critical and board space allows 1µF ceramic placement |
Compared with MCP1700-2202E/TO and XC6210B222MR-G, AP7315-22SR-7 uniquely balances 75dB PSRR, 60µVrms noise, and 0.47µF capacitor compatibility - making it optimal for RF and imaging subsystems where both noise rejection and layout density are constrained.

FAQ
Is AP7315-22SR-7 pin-compatible with other SOT23-3 LDOs?
No - AP7315-22SR-7 uses a non-standard pinout: Pin 1 = GND, Pin 2 = VOUT, Pin 3 = VIN. Most SOT23-3 LDOs follow VIN–GND–VOUT or VIN–VOUT–GND arrangements. This configuration minimizes trace length between GND and VOUT for improved stability but requires careful PCB layout verification.
Does AP7315-22SR-7 include output discharge functionality?
No - the "SR" suffix denotes the standard SOT23-3 package without auto-discharge. Unlike AP7315D variants, this part lacks an internal NMOS discharge switch between VOUT and GND. When disabled, output voltage decays only through load leakage and external capacitor discharge paths.
What is the minimum recommended input capacitor for AP7315-22SR-7?
A 0.47µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor is the minimum recommended value, placed within 2mm of the VIN and GND pins. Larger values (e.g., 1µF–10µF) improve transient response under dynamic loads but are not required for basic stability per the datasheet.
Can AP7315-22SR-7 operate from a 2.4V lithium coin cell?
Yes - with 2.2V output and 0.34V max dropout at 150mA, the device functions down to 2.54V input. A fresh CR2032 delivers ~3.0V open-circuit, sustaining >2.54V for most of its discharge curve under light loads (<50mA), making it viable for low-duty-cycle sensor nodes.
