Product details
Overview
AP7315-33SR-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 3.3V 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 enable control, operates from 1.7V to 5.25V input, and is optimized for RF supply and portable media player power rails.
For engineers reviewing the AP7315-33SR-7 datasheet, AP7315-33SR-7 pinout, AP7315-33SR-7 application, or AP7315-33SR-7 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SOT23-3 package terminal mapping, real-world use cases in battery-powered RF subsystems, and validated alternative LDOs with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The AP7315-33SR-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 defined logic thresholds (VIL ≤ 0.5V, VIH ≥ 1.3V), and it lacks internal discharge functionality (non-discharge variant).
Designed for high-PSRR, low-noise operation, it achieves 75dB ripple rejection at 1kHz and maintains stable regulation across –40°C to +85°C ambient, with dropout voltage as low as 210mV at 150mA output for 3.3V VOUT.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±1% - ensures stable core voltage for 3.3V I/O interfaces without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA - supports moderate-power RF ICs and camera sensor biasing without thermal derating in SOT23. |
| Input Voltage Range | 1.7V to 5.25V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V), USB 5V, and 3.3V rail stacking. |
| PSRR @ 1kHz | 75dB - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters feeding sensitive analog/RF circuits. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - minimizes phase noise impact in VCO/PLL power domains. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA typical - extends battery life in always-on standby modes of portable devices. |
| Dropout Voltage | 210mV @ 150mA - enables regulation down to ~3.51V input, critical for Li-ion end-of-discharge operation. |
Pinout & Package
AP7315-33SR-7 is packaged in SOT23-3 (SR variant), a 3-pin surface-mount package with 0.95mm pitch and exposed pad not connected internally. PCB layout requires direct GND connection to the thermal pad for optimal thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 3) | Power input | Accepts 1.7–5.25V; requires 0.47µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to minimize input impedance. |
| GND (Pin 1) | Ground reference | Primary return path for load current and regulator control circuitry; must connect to low-impedance ground plane. |
| VOUT (Pin 2) | Regulated output | Delivers stable 3.3V ±1%; output capacitor (0.47µF ceramic) required for transient stability and EMI suppression. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - rejects noise from noisy switchers powering adjacent digital blocks. |
| Ultra-low noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - preserves signal integrity in RF front-end and audio codec supplies. |
| Enable control | Logic-compatible EN threshold (VIH ≥ 1.3V) - allows direct interfacing with 1.8V/3.3V GPIO without level shifters. |
| Low quiescent current | 35µA typical - reduces no-load power loss in battery-backed systems during sleep states. |
| ±1% output accuracy | Guaranteed over temperature and line/load - eliminates need for post-regulation trimming in production. |
Applications
| RF Power Amplifier Bias | Camera 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700-3302E/TO | 3.3V fixed, 250mA, 6µA IQ, but only 60dB PSRR @ 1kHz and 120µVrms noise. | Lacks EN pin; unsuitable for dynamic power gating in portable systems. | Prefer when ultra-low IQ dominates over noise/PSRR requirements. |
| Torex XC6206P332MR-G | 3.3V fixed, 250mA, 1.0µA IQ, 70dB PSRR @ 1kHz, 40µVrms noise, but no EN pin and 2.0V min VIN. | Cannot operate from 1.7V sources (e.g., deeply discharged Li-ion); no enable control limits system-level power sequencing. | Select only for ultra-low-power always-on sensors where input voltage stays ≥2.0V. |
Compared with MCP1700-3302E/TO and XC6206P332MR-G, AP7315-33SR-7 uniquely balances 75dB PSRR, 60µVrms noise, 35µA IQ, and EN control in a 3-pin SOT23 - making it optimal for RF and imaging subsystems requiring both precision and dynamic power management.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for AP7315-33SR-7?
The absolute maximum input voltage is 6.0V, but the recommended operating range is 1.7V to 5.25V. Exceeding 5.25V risks permanent damage per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Operation above 5.25V is not guaranteed and may degrade long-term reliability even if functional initially.
Does AP7315-33SR-7 include an internal discharge transistor?
No. AP7315-33SR-7 is the non-discharge variant (no "D" suffix). When disabled via the EN pin, the output remains floating and does not actively discharge the output capacitor. For active discharge, select AP7315D-33SR-7 instead.
Can AP7315-33SR-7 be used with ceramic output capacitors smaller than 0.47µF?
No. The datasheet specifies 0.47µF as the minimum recommended ceramic output capacitance for stability across all operating conditions. Using smaller values may cause oscillation or degraded transient response, especially under 150mA load steps.
What is the thermal pad connection requirement for AP7315-33SR-7?
The SOT23-3 package has no exposed thermal pad; the SR variant uses standard SOT23-3 pinout with no thermal pad. Thermal dissipation relies on copper area connected to Pin 1 (GND) and wide traces for VIN/VOUT. Do not confuse with X2-DFN1010-4 or SOT25 variants that include thermal pads.
