Product details
Overview
AP7315D-26W5-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 2.6V fixed-output, 150mA low-dropout linear regulator with enable control, ±1% output voltage accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 1kHz, and 60µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz). It operates from 1.7V to 5.25V input and delivers ultra-low quiescent current (35µA typ) for RF supply and portable media player power rails.
For engineers reviewing the AP7315D-26W5-7 datasheet, AP7315D-26W5-7 pinout, AP7315D-26W5-7 application, or AP7315D-26W5-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage (210mV at 150mA for 2.6V output), EN pin logic thresholds (0.5V low / 1.3V high), thermal performance in SOT25, and discharge functionality for fast VOUT decay during shutdown.
Technical Context
The AP7315D-26W5-7 integrates a CMOS-based error amplifier, precision voltage reference, current-limit circuit, and active discharge FET. Its architecture enables stable regulation under fast load transients while maintaining low noise and high PSRR across 10Hz–1MHz.
Unlike non-discharge variants (e.g., AP7315-26W5-7), the "D" suffix denotes an internal 30Ω N-channel discharge path between VOUT and GND when EN = low, reducing residual output voltage within microseconds-critical for sequencing-sensitive RF and camera modules.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.6V ±1% - ensures stable bias for 2.5V–2.7V logic and analog circuits without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA - supports single-core microcontrollers, RF transceivers, and image sensor interfaces. |
| Dropout Voltage | 210mV at 150mA - enables operation from 2.81V input, compatible with Li-ion single-cell and 3.3V rail splitting. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters feeding noisy power domains. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - preserves signal integrity in ADC reference supplies and RF LNA biasing. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA typical - extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes and standby modes of portable devices. |
| Enable Thresholds | VEN(H) ≥ 1.3V, VEN(L) ≤ 0.5V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIO without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
SOT25 package (5-pin, 2.9mm × 2.8mm × 1.3mm) with exposed thermal pad; optimized for compact PCB layout and thermal dissipation via GND-connected copper area.
| 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. |
| 2 – GND | Ground reference | Primary return path; must connect directly to low-impedance ground plane to stabilize regulation and reduce noise coupling. |
| 3 – EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input; floating state disables regulator-must be tied to VIN or controlled by host MCU GPIO. |
| 4 – NC | No-connect | Internally unconnected; recommended to tie to GND for improved thermal conduction and EMI shielding. |
| 5 – VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers 2.6V ±1%; includes integrated discharge FET to rapidly pull down output when disabled. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High PSRR | 75dB @ 1kHz - rejects ripple from buck converters powering baseband processors in smartphones. |
| Low-noise output | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - meets noise floor requirements for high-resolution audio DACs and RF synthesizers. |
| Active discharge | 30Ω on-resistance - discharges 10µF load in <1ms, preventing latch-up in multi-rail systems during power-down. |
| Ultra-low IQ | 35µA typical - reduces no-load power loss to 91nW per µV of VIN, critical for coin-cell applications. |
| Wide input range | 1.7V–5.25V - supports direct connection to single Li-ion (2.7–4.2V), USB (4.75–5.25V), and regulated 3.3V/2.5V rails. |
Applications
| Smartphone RF Power Supply | Portable Camera Module Bias |
|---|---|
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP7315-26W5-7 | No internal discharge FET; VOUT floats after disable | Acceptable where output hold time is not safety-critical (e.g., non-sequenced logic rails) | Select when lower cost and absence of discharge simplifies system-level timing control. |
| MCP1700-2602E/TO | 250mA output, 6µA IQ, but only 60dB PSRR at 1kHz and no discharge function | Better for ultra-low-power always-on monitoring; insufficient PSRR for RF co-location | Prefer for energy-harvesting nodes where IQ dominates lifetime, but avoid in RF-dense layouts. |
Compared with AP7315-26W5-7, the D-suffix variant adds essential discharge capability for safe multi-rail sequencing, while MCP1700 trades PSRR and discharge for lower IQ-making AP7315D-26W5-7 optimal for RF and imaging subsystems demanding both noise immunity and controlled shutdown.

FAQ
What is the purpose of the NC pin (Pin 4) in the SOT25 package?
Pin 4 is internally not connected and serves no electrical function. Diodes Incorporated recommends connecting it to GND on the PCB to maximize copper area for thermal dissipation and improve EMI shielding-this does not affect regulation but enhances thermal performance and noise immunity.
Does the AP7315D-26W5-7 require an external discharge resistor?
No. The "D" suffix indicates an integrated N-channel discharge FET (30Ω typical on-resistance) between VOUT and GND. When EN is pulled low, this FET actively pulls VOUT to GND, eliminating the need for external components and ensuring sub-millisecond discharge of typical 1–10µF output capacitors.
Can the AP7315D-26W5-7 operate with a 1µF output capacitor?
Yes-stability is guaranteed with ceramic capacitors ≥0.47µF and ESR ≤100mΩ. A 1µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor meets these requirements and improves load transient response compared to the minimum 0.47µF, especially for pulsed-current loads like RF PAs.
How does the AP7315D-26W5-7 behave during input undervoltage?
Below 1.7V input, regulation ceases and VOUT follows VIN minus dropout voltage. The device does not latch or reset; it resumes regulation immediately once VIN rises above the minimum operating voltage plus dropout. No UVLO circuitry is included-system-level supervision is required if undervoltage protection is needed.
