Product details
Overview
AP7333-12SRG-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 300mA fixed-output (1.2V) low-dropout linear regulator in SOT23R package, featuring 65µA quiescent current, 300mV dropout at full load, 65dB PSRR at 100Hz, and stable operation with 1µF ceramic output capacitor. It serves as a primary power supply for low-power digital ICs in battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the AP7333-12SRG-7 datasheet, AP7333-12SRG-7 pinout, AP7333-12SRG-7 application, or AP7333-12SRG-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage under 300mA load, ultra-low IQ across 2–6V input range, fast 80µs start-up, thermal shutdown threshold at 140°C, and compatibility with 1µF low-ESR ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The AP7333-12SRG-7 integrates a PMOS pass element, bandgap reference, error amplifier, and protection circuitry (current limit, short-circuit, thermal shutdown) in a single die. Its architecture enables stable regulation without minimum load and supports rapid transient response from 0 to 300mA.
Designed for input voltages from 2V to 6V, it delivers precise 1.2V ±2% output across –40°C to +85°C ambient, with line regulation of 0.01–0.20%/V and load regulation of ±0.6% over full current range. Thermal resistance is 230°C/W in SOT23R package.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.2V ±2% - ensures stable core voltage for 1.2V logic rails and low-voltage microcontrollers |
| Max Output Current | 300mA continuous - sufficient to power baseband processors, RF transceivers, or sensor interfaces |
| Quiescent Current | 65µA typical at full load - minimizes standby power loss in always-on battery applications |
| Dropout Voltage | 300mV typical at 300mA - enables operation down to 1.5V input while maintaining 1.2V output |
| PSRR | 65dB at 100Hz - suppresses low-frequency ripple from switching DC/DC stages upstream |
| Start-up Time | 80µs - supports rapid wake-up from deep-sleep modes in portable devices |
| Thermal Shutdown | 140°C trigger with 15°C hysteresis - provides self-recovery protection during sustained overload |
Pinout & Package
SOT23R package: 3-pin surface-mount, RoHS-compliant, green molding compound, 230°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for internal bias and output current; must be connected to low-impedance PCB ground plane |
| 2 (OUT) | Regulated output | Delivers stable 1.2V to load; requires 1µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin |
| 3 (IN) | Input supply | Accepts 2–6V input; bypassed with ≥1µF ceramic capacitor to suppress high-frequency noise |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No minimum load requirement | Maintains regulation and stability even at 0mA output - eliminates need for dummy loads in sleep-mode circuits |
| Fast transient response | Stabilizes within microseconds during 0–300mA load steps - prevents brown-out in DSP/GSM baseband ICs |
| Low-ESR capacitor support | Stable with 1µF X7R/X5R ceramic capacitors (10–200mΩ ESR) - reduces BOM cost and board area vs. tantalum |
| Integrated protection | Current limit (~600mA), short-circuit clamp (~100mA), and thermal shutdown - eliminates need for external fault management |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fixed-output LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-1202E/TT | 250mA max output, 1.8µA IQ, SOT23-3 package (IN-GND-OUT pinout) | Limited to lighter loads; ultra-low IQ suits multi-year coin-cell applications | Select when <250mA load and sub-5µA standby current dominate design priorities |
| Torex XC6206P122MR-G | 300mA, 1.0µA IQ, but 1.2V output accuracy ±3% and 400mV dropout at 300mA | Higher dropout and looser tolerance reduce margin in 1.5V-input systems | Choose only if ultra-low IQ outweighs tighter regulation and lower dropout requirements |
Compared with MCP1700T-1202E/TT and XC6206P122MR-G, the AP7333-12SRG-7 uniquely balances 300mA capability, 65µA IQ, 300mV dropout, and ±2% accuracy - making it optimal for 1.2V FPGA I/O banks, GSM baseband cores, and other mid-current, precision low-power rails.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for AP7333-12SRG-7?
The absolute maximum input voltage is 7V, but the recommended operating range is 2V to 6V. Exceeding 6V risks violating safe operating area limits, especially under high ambient temperature or heavy load conditions. Operation above 6V may trigger thermal shutdown or degrade long-term reliability, even if within instantaneous absolute ratings.
Can AP7333-12SRG-7 operate without an output capacitor?
No - an output capacitor is mandatory for stability. The device requires ≥1µF ceramic capacitor (X7R/X5R, 10–200mΩ ESR) between OUT and GND. Omitting it causes oscillation and unregulated output. Unlike some LDOs, AP7333-12SRG-7 does not support capacitor-free operation, even at no load.
How does the current limit protection behave during short-circuit events?
Under short-circuit (VOUT < 200mV), the device clamps output current to ~100mA and enters thermal cycling if power dissipation exceeds safe limits. This differs from normal current limit (~600mA at VOUT/ROUT = 1A), providing dedicated low-current fault containment to prevent PCB trace damage and excessive junction heating.
Is AP7333-12SRG-7 compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes - it is RoHS-compliant with lead-free finish and qualified for standard JEDEC J-STD-020D reflow profiles, including peak temperatures up to 260°C. The SOT23R package uses green molding compound (no Br/Sb) and withstands three reflow cycles without degradation of electrical performance or wire bond integrity.
