Product details
Overview
AP7315D-30W5-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 3.0V 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 applications.
For engineers reviewing the AP7315D-30W5-7 datasheet, AP7315D-30W5-7 pinout, AP7315D-30W5-7 application, or AP7315D-30W5-7 equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (SOT25), terminal functions, real-world load transient behavior, dropout voltage vs. temperature curves, and validated alternative LDOs for space-constrained battery-powered designs.
Technical Context
The AP7315D-30W5-7 integrates a CMOS-based error amplifier, precision voltage reference, current-limit circuit, and active discharge path (enabled when EN = low). Its architecture supports fast load transient response (<100µs settling) and maintains stability with 0.47µF ceramic output capacitors.
Unlike non-discharge variants (e.g., AP7315-30W5-7), the "D" suffix denotes an internal 30Ω N-channel MOSFET between VOUT and GND that actively discharges the output capacitor during shutdown, preventing residual voltage hold-up in multi-rail systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.0V ±1% - ensures stable core bias for 3.0V logic rails without external feedback network. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA - sufficient for powering RF transceivers, camera sensors, or baseband ICs in handheld devices. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters feeding shared input rails. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - minimizes phase jitter in clock-sensitive analog circuits like ADCs or RF synthesizers. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA typical - extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes or standby modes of portable media players. |
| Dropout Voltage | 210mV at 150mA (VOUT = 3.0V) - enables operation down to 3.21V input, compatible with single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V) under load. |
| Enable Threshold | VEN(H) ≥ 1.3V, VEN(L) ≤ 0.5V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIOs without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
SOT25 (5-pin, 2.9mm × 2.8mm × 1.3mm) package with exposed thermal pad (not electrically connected); optimized for high-density PCB layouts and thermal dissipation via copper pour tied to GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VIN | Power input | Accepts 1.7–5.25V; requires 0.47µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed within 2mm of pin. |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for input/output currents; must connect to low-impedance ground plane. |
| 3 - EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input; floating state disables regulator; internal pull-down not provided. |
| 4 - NC | No-connect | Internally unconnected; recommended to tie to GND for improved thermal conduction and EMI shielding. |
| 5 - VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers 3.0V ±1%; connects directly to load; output capacitor must be placed adjacent to this pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Active output discharge | 30Ω on-resistance (VEN = 0V) - discharges 10µF load in <300µs, eliminating need for external bleed resistor. |
| Ultra-low noise | 60µVrms broadband noise - avoids signal corruption in audio codecs or RF front-end biasing. |
| High PSRR at low frequency | 75dB @ 1kHz - rejects ripple from buck converter switching frequencies and their harmonics. |
| Low IQ across temperature | 30–40µA from –40°C to +85°C - maintains efficiency over full industrial operating range. |
| Stable with small ceramics | 0.47µF min COUT - reduces BOM count and board area versus traditional 10µF tantalum solutions. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-3002E/TT | 3.0V fixed, 250mA, 6µA IQ, no enable, no discharge | Lacks EN control and active discharge; requires external shutdown circuitry | Select when minimal quiescent current is critical and discharge is handled externally. |
| Torex XC6210B302MR-G | 3.0V fixed, 150mA, 35µA IQ, EN pin, no discharge, 70dB PSRR @ 1kHz | Lower PSRR (70dB vs. 75dB); no integrated discharge path | Choose when footprint compatibility with SOT25 is required but discharge is unnecessary. |
Compared with MCP1700T-3002E/TT and XC6210B302MR-G, the AP7315D-30W5-7 uniquely combines 3.0V precision regulation, enable control, and active discharge in a 5-pin SOT25-enabling simpler power sequencing and faster wake-up in battery-powered wireless modules without adding discrete components.

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 tying it to GND on the PCB to improve thermal conduction from the package's thermal pad and reduce EMI susceptibility. Leaving it floating does not affect regulation but forfeits thermal and shielding benefits.
Does the AP7315D-30W5-7 require an external discharge resistor?
No. The "D" suffix indicates an integrated 30Ω N-channel MOSFET between VOUT and GND that activates automatically when EN is pulled low. This discharges typical 1–10µF output capacitors in under 300µs, eliminating the need for external bleed resistors and reducing standby power loss.
Can the AP7315D-30W5-7 operate with a 2.5V input supply?
Yes, but only at reduced output current. With VIN = 2.5V and VOUT = 3.0V, the device cannot regulate because input is below required headroom. Minimum VIN is 3.21V (3.0V + 210mV dropout) at 150mA load. At lighter loads (<10mA), regulation is possible down to ~3.02V due to lower dropout.
How does the AP7315D-30W5-7 handle short-circuit conditions?
It features fold-back current limiting that clamps output current to ~55mA when VOUT is shorted to GND. This protects the device from thermal damage while maintaining safe junction temperatures. Recovery is automatic once the short is removed and input voltage remains within specification.
