Product details
Overview
AP7315-23W5-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 2.3V fixed-output, 150mA low-dropout linear regulator with ±1% output voltage accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 1kHz, and 60µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz). Built on CMOS process, it features enable control, low 35µA quiescent current, and operates from 1.7V to 5.25V input-optimized for RF supply rails in portable wireless devices.
For engineers reviewing the AP7315-23W5-7 datasheet, AP7315-23W5-7 pinout, AP7315-23W5-7 application, or AP7315-23W5-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 150mA (max 0.34V), EN logic thresholds (0.5V low / 1.3V high), thermal performance in SOT25, and compatibility with 0.47µF ceramic input/output capacitors.
Technical Context
The AP7315-23W5-7 integrates a precision voltage reference, error amplifier, current-limit circuit, and CMOS pass transistor-enabling stable 2.3V regulation with fast load transient response and no external compensation required. Its non-discharge architecture retains output voltage during shutdown.
It delivers 150mA output with dropout as low as 0.34V at 2.3V VOUT, supports 1.7V–5.25V input range, and maintains ±1% accuracy over -40°C to +85°C ambient-making it suitable for battery-powered systems where headroom and noise sensitivity are critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.3V ±1% - ensures stable bias for RF ICs and sensors without external feedback network. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA - sufficient for powering baseband processors, camera modules, or Bluetooth SoCs in compact handheld designs. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from PMICs or DC-DC converters feeding adjacent analog/RF circuitry. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - minimizes phase noise impact on VCOs and ADC references in communication subsystems. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA typical - extends battery life in always-on or low-duty-cycle applications like wireless adapters and IoT sensors. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.34V max at 150mA - enables operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0V min) or two-cell alkaline (2.4V min) with margin. |
| Enable Thresholds | VIL ≤ 0.5V, VIH ≥ 1.3V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIOs for precise power sequencing control. |
Pinout & Package
SOT25 (5-pin, 2.9mm × 2.8mm × 1.3mm) package with exposed thermal pad connected to GND in PCB layout for enhanced thermal dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 – VIN | Power input | Accepts 1.7V–5.25V; requires 0.47µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to minimize input impedance and supply glitches. |
| 2 – GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for input/output currents; must connect to low-impedance ground plane to maintain PSRR and stability. |
| 3 – EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input; floating state is undefined-must be tied to VIN or controlled by host MCU GPIO to prevent unintended shutdown. |
| 4 – NC | No-connect | Internally unconnected; recommended to tie to GND for improved thermal conduction and EMI shielding via PCB copper fill. |
| 5 – VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers 2.3V ±1%; requires 0.47µF ceramic capacitor placed within 2mm of pin to ensure transient response and loop stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High PSRR | 75dB @ 1kHz - preserves signal integrity in RF front-end power domains by rejecting coupled noise from digital switching supplies. |
| Ultra-low noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - avoids degradation of SNR in audio codecs, image sensors, and precision ADCs. |
| Low quiescent current | 35µA typical - reduces standby power loss in battery-backed real-time clocks and sensor hubs. |
| Wide input range | 1.7V–5.25V - supports direct connection to Li-ion, Li-Po, or multi-cell alkaline sources without pre-regulation. |
| Fixed 2.3V output | ±1% accuracy over temperature - eliminates need for external resistor dividers and simplifies BOM for space-constrained layouts. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700-2302E/TO | 2.3V fixed, 250mA, 6µA IQ, but only 60dB PSRR @ 1kHz and 120µVrms noise. | Lacks RF-grade noise/PSRR performance; suited for non-critical digital I/O rails, not RF or precision analog. | Choose when ultra-low IQ dominates over noise/PSRR-e.g., coin-cell-powered microcontrollers. |
| Torex XC6210B232MR-G | 2.3V fixed, 150mA, 70dB PSRR @ 1kHz, 45µVrms noise, but requires 1µF minimum COUT and has higher 0.45V dropout. | Higher minimum output capacitance increases board area; less suitable for space-constrained RF modules. | Prefer when lower noise is critical and PCB layout permits larger ceramic capacitor footprint. |
Compared with MCP1700-2302E/TO, AP7315-23W5-7 provides 15dB higher PSRR and half the output noise-essential for RF bias. Versus XC6210B232MR-G, it achieves lower dropout (0.34V vs. 0.45V) and supports smaller 0.47µF COUT, reducing solution size in dense portable designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable input voltage for AP7315-23W5-7?
The absolute maximum input voltage is 6.0V, but the recommended operating range is 1.7V to 5.25V. Exceeding 5.25V may trigger internal protection or degrade long-term reliability. For 5V rail applications, ensure transient spikes remain below 6.0V using appropriate input filtering.
Can AP7315-23W5-7 be used without connecting the EN pin?
No-the EN pin must not be left floating. It must be either pulled high to VIN (to enable permanently) or driven by a defined logic signal. Floating EN causes unpredictable behavior due to CMOS input threshold uncertainty and may result in intermittent regulation or excessive quiescent current.
Is the NC pin on SOT25 electrically isolated?
Yes, Pin 4 (NC) is internally unconnected. However, Diodes recommends tying it to GND on the PCB to improve thermal conduction from the package's thermal pad and reduce EMI coupling-this does not affect electrical function but enhances thermal and EMC performance.
Does AP7315-23W5-7 include short-circuit protection?
Yes-it features fold-back current limiting that clamps output current to approximately 55mA during VOUT-to-GND short. This protects the device from thermal damage while maintaining safe junction temperatures under fault conditions without requiring external current-sense components.
