Product details
Overview
AP7343DQ-15FDZW-7 from Diodes Incorporated is an automotive-grade 300mA low-dropout linear regulator with fixed 1.5V output, ±1% accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 1kHz, 60µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz), and 35µA quiescent current. It features enable control, thermal shutdown, and short-circuit protection, and is used in ADAS camera power rails and infotainment domain controllers where low-noise, high-PSRR POL regulation is required.
For engineers reviewing the AP7343DQ-15FDZW-7 datasheet, AP7343DQ-15FDZW-7 pinout, AP7343DQ-15FDZW-7 application, or AP7343DQ-15FDZW-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) Type A1 package thermal performance (θJA = 54°C/W), discharge functionality, and 1.7V–5.25V input range compatibility with 12V automotive systems.
Technical Context
The AP7343DQ-15FDZW-7 integrates a CMOS-based LDO core with voltage reference, error amplifier, current limit, and thermal shutdown circuitry. Its enable input supports active-high logic control with defined thresholds (VEN(H) ≥ 1.3V, VEN(L) ≤ 0.5V), and its built-in discharge path actively pulls VOUT to GND during shutdown - a critical feature for sequencing-sensitive automotive subsystems.
This variant delivers 1.5V output with guaranteed 300mA load capability across –40°C to +125°C ambient, achieving dropout as low as 0.39V at 300mA (for 1.2V < VOUT ≤ 1.4V), and maintains 75dB ripple rejection at 1kHz under 30mA load - enabling clean power delivery to RF receivers and image sensors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5V ±1% at +25°C; ensures stable bias for 1.5V logic and analog circuits without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 300mA continuous; sufficient for powering multiple camera sensor modules or MCU I/O banks in ADAS ECUs. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz; suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters feeding infotainment SoCs. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz); minimizes jitter in clock buffers and SNR degradation in ADC front-ends. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA typical; enables ultra-low-power sleep mode operation in always-on vehicle networks. |
| Input Voltage Range | 1.7V to 5.25V; compatible with post-regulated 3.3V/5V domains and direct connection to buck converter outputs. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.39V max at 300mA (1.2V < VOUT ≤ 1.4V); allows operation from 1.89V input while maintaining 1.5V output under full load. |
Pinout & Package
AP7343DQ-15FDZW-7 is packaged in W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) Type A1 - a 2.0mm × 2.0mm, 0.65mm pitch, wettable flank package with exposed pad (EP) for enhanced thermal dissipation. The EP must be connected to PCB ground plane via multiple vias to achieve θJA = 54°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 1) | Power Input | Accepts 1.7–5.25V supply; requires local 0.47µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed within 2mm of pin. |
| EN (Pin 2) | Enable Control | Active-high logic input; must be driven to ≥1.3V to enable, ≤0.5V to disable; floating prohibited. |
| GND (Pin 3) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for input/output currents; connects directly to internal die substrate and EP thermal pad. |
| VOUT (Pin 4) | Regulated Output | Delivers 1.5V ±1%; requires 1µF ceramic output capacitor placed adjacent to pin for stability and transient response. |
| NC (Pin 5) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; recommended to tie to GND for improved thermal conduction and EMI shielding. |
| NC (Pin 6) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; recommended to tie to GND for improved thermal conduction and EMI shielding. |
| EP | Exposed Thermal Pad | Not electrically functional; must be soldered to large GND copper area with ≥4 thermal vias for thermal reliability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 Qualified | Validated for operation from –40°C to +125°C ambient; supports PPAP documentation and IATF 16949 manufacturing traceability. |
| Integrated Discharge Function | Active pull-down of VOUT during shutdown (RON ≈ 30Ω); eliminates hold-up time and prevents back-powering of downstream circuitry. |
| Low-Noise, High-PSRR Architecture | 60µVrms noise + 75dB PSRR at 1kHz enables use in RF receiver LNA bias and high-resolution imaging sensor supplies. |
| Ultra-Low Quiescent Current | 35µA typical IQ; reduces standby power loss in always-on telematics gateways and body control modules. |
| Thermal Shutdown with Hysteresis | Triggers at +150°C with +20°C hysteresis; protects against sustained overload in compact automotive enclosures without airflow. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP7343Q-15FDZW-7 | No discharge function; EN-controlled shutdown leaves VOUT floating. | Suitable for non-sequencing applications where hold-up is acceptable. | Select when discharge is unnecessary and cost optimization is prioritized. |
| TLD1114-15ES | Higher IQ (120µA), lower PSRR (65dB @ 1kHz), same AEC-Q100 Grade 1 rating. | Targeted at general-purpose automotive loads; less suitable for RF/analog noise-sensitive circuits. | Choose if board space allows larger package (SOT-23-5) and noise performance is secondary to BOM simplification. |
Compared with AP7343Q-15FDZW-7, the DQ variant adds critical discharge capability for system-level power sequencing, while TLD1114-15ES trades noise/PSRR performance for broader availability and simpler layout - making AP7343DQ-15FDZW-7 optimal for high-fidelity ADAS and RF power domains.

FAQ
What is the purpose of the NC pins on AP7343DQ-15FDZW-7?
The two NC pins (Pins 5 and 6) are not connected internally. Diodes Incorporated recommends tying them to GND to maximize PCB copper area for thermal dissipation and improve EMI shielding. Leaving them floating may degrade thermal performance and increase susceptibility to noise coupling.
Does AP7343DQ-15FDZW-7 require an external discharge resistor?
No. Unlike standard LDOs, AP7343DQ-15FDZW-7 integrates an internal N-channel MOSFET discharge path (RON ≈ 30Ω) that actively pulls VOUT to GND when EN is low. This eliminates the need for external components and ensures controlled, rapid discharge during power-down sequences.
How does the W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) Type A1 package affect thermal design?
The W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) Type A1 package achieves θJA = 54°C/W only when the exposed pad (EP) is soldered to a minimum 10mm² GND copper area with ≥4 thermal vias to inner ground planes. Without this, junction temperature rise exceeds specification limits under 300mA load at +125°C ambient.
Can AP7343DQ-15FDZW-7 operate with input voltage below 1.7V?
No. The absolute minimum input voltage is 1.7V per Recommended Operating Conditions. Operation below this threshold risks regulation loss, increased dropout, and potential instability. For sub-1.7V applications, consider Diodes' AP2204K or AP7361D series with lower VIN minima.
