Product details
Overview
AP7341-32FS4-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 300mA, 3.2V fixed-output low-dropout linear regulator (LDO) in X2-DFN1010-4 package, featuring ±1% output voltage accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 1kHz, 60µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz), and ultra-low 35µA quiescent current. It delivers stable, low-noise power for RF supply rails and camera sensor biasing in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the AP7341-32FS4-7 datasheet, AP7341-32FS4-7 pinout, AP7341-32FS4-7 application, or AP7341-32FS4-7 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, pin-level design meaning, real-world application constraints, and validated alternative options for low-noise, high-PSRR LDO selection in battery-powered handheld systems.
Technical Context
The AP7341-32FS4-7 uses a CMOS-based architecture with integrated voltage reference, error amplifier, and current-limit circuitry to regulate 3.2V output from input voltages between 1.7V and 5.25V. Its enable-controlled shutdown draws only 0.01µA standby current and supports fast load transient response via low-ESR ceramic capacitor compatibility.
Thermal performance is optimized through the exposed thermal pad (not electrically connected to GND by default), requiring PCB copper area for dissipation. Dropout voltage is 0.21–0.27V at 300mA for VOUT = 3.2V, enabling operation near battery end-of-discharge in single-cell Li-ion or multi-cell alkaline systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.2V ±1% over -40°C to +85°C - ensures stable bias for 3.3V-tolerant analog/RF ICs without external feedback network. |
| Max Output Current | 300mA continuous - sufficient for powering image sensors, RF transceivers, or MCU core rails in compact mobile devices. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from DC-DC converters feeding the LDO input, critical for clean RF supply domains. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - minimizes phase noise in VCOs and jitter in high-speed serial interfaces powered from this rail. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA typical - extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes or standby modes where low-power regulation is essential. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.21V at 300mA (VOUT = 3.2V) - enables >93% efficiency at 3.4V input, supporting operation down to ~3.41V before regulation loss. |
| Enable Threshold | VEN(H) ≥ 1.3V, VEN(L) ≤ 0.5V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIOs without level-shifting; floating EN is prohibited. |
Pinout & Package
X2-DFN1010-4 package: 1.0mm × 1.0mm footprint, 0.4mm height, thermally enhanced with exposed pad (non-functional unless connected to GND plane per layout guidance).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PIN1: VOUT | Regulated power output | Must be decoupled with ≥1.0µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin; trace inductance directly impacts transient response and stability. |
| PIN2: GND | Power ground reference | Primary return path for output current; requires low-impedance connection to system ground plane to minimize noise coupling and dropout variation. |
| PIN3: EN | Active-high enable control | Drives internal pass transistor gate; must be driven to defined logic levels-floating causes undefined output state and potential shoot-through risk. |
| PIN4: VIN | Unregulated input supply | Requires ≥0.47µF ceramic decoupling close to pin; wide trace recommended to limit IR drop during 300mA load steps. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low noise output | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) enables direct powering of noise-sensitive RF front-ends without additional filtering. |
| High PSRR across frequency | 75dB @ 1kHz, >60dB up to 100kHz - rejects ripple from upstream switching regulators, reducing need for LC post-filtering. |
| Low-quiescent-current shutdown | 0.01µA ISTANDBY - preserves battery charge during extended sleep cycles in IoT edge nodes and wearable sensors. |
| CMOS process with low RDS(ON) | Enables 0.21V dropout at 300mA for 3.2V output - maximizes usable battery voltage range in single-cell applications. |
| Integrated short-circuit protection | Fold-back current limit clamps output to ~55mA during VOUT-to-GND fault - prevents thermal runaway without external current-sense circuitry. |
Applications
| Smartphone Camera Module | Wi-Fi/Bluetooth RF Transceiver |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP7361-32FS4-7 | Same package and 3.2V output, but rated for 600mA and higher 500mW PD; quiescent current 55µA vs. 35µA. | Better suited for higher-current loads like multi-core PMIC rails; less optimal for ultra-low-power standby due to higher IQ. | Select when peak current exceeds 300mA or thermal margin is constrained; avoid if <40µA IQ is mandatory. |
| MCP1700-3202E/TO | TO-92 package (larger footprint), 250mA max, 6.5µA IQ, 65dB PSRR @ 1kHz, 30µVrms noise. | Lower noise and IQ, but lower current rating and through-hole mounting limits PCB density in modern portable designs. | Prefer for cost-sensitive, low-volume, or legacy through-hole assemblies where 250mA suffices and board area is not constrained. |
Compared with AP7341-32FS4-7, AP7361-32FS4-7 trades 20µA higher quiescent current for 2× output current and improved thermal handling, while MCP1700-3202E/TO sacrifices miniaturization and current capability for ultra-low IQ and noise-making each suitable for distinct power-density versus efficiency trade-offs.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for AP7341-32FS4-7 to maintain regulation at full 300mA load?
The minimum input voltage is calculated as VOUT + VDROP = 3.2V + 0.27V = 3.47V under worst-case conditions (85°C, 300mA). At 25°C, dropout is 0.21V, so 3.41V suffices. Operation below these thresholds results in unregulated output and potential system reset or brownout.
Can the thermal pad on the X2-DFN1010-4 package be left unconnected?
Yes-the thermal pad has no electrical function and may be left floating, though Diodes recommends connecting it to the GND plane via multiple vias for optimal thermal dissipation. Leaving it unconnected reduces thermal resistance by ~15°C/W compared to isolation, improving reliability under sustained 300mA loads.
Does AP7341-32FS4-7 include reverse-current blocking?
No-AP7341-32FS4-7 lacks integrated reverse-current blocking. If VOUT exceeds VVIN (e.g., during hot-swap or backup battery scenarios), current can flow backward from output to input. An external Schottky diode in series with VIN is required for reverse-polarity or backfeed protection.
Is an input capacitor mandatory, and what value is recommended?
Yes-an input capacitor is mandatory for stability and input ripple suppression. Diodes specifies a minimum 0.47µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor placed within 2mm of the VIN and GND pins. For systems with high di/dt loads, a 1.0µF capacitor is recommended to prevent input voltage sag during 300mA transient steps.
