Product details
Overview
AP7343DQ-25FDZW-7 from Diodes Incorporated is an automotive-grade 300mA low-dropout linear regulator with fixed 2.5V output, ±1% accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 1kHz, 60µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz), and 35µA quiescent current - designed for noise-sensitive power domains in ADAS cameras and RF modules.
For engineers reviewing the AP7343DQ-25FDZW-7 datasheet, AP7343DQ-25FDZW-7 pinout, AP7343DQ-25FDZW-7 application, or AP7343DQ-25FDZW-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) Type A1 thermal performance (θJA = 54°C/W), enable-controlled shutdown, and integrated auto-discharge functionality.
Technical Context
The AP7343DQ-25FDZW-7 uses a CMOS-based LDO architecture with internal voltage reference, error amplifier, current limit, and thermal shutdown circuitry. Its enable input provides precise on/off control with defined logic thresholds (VEN(H) ≥ 1.3V, VEN(L) ≤ 0.5V) and sub-1µA standby leakage.
Unlike the non-discharge AP7343Q variant, this DQ version integrates an N-channel MOSFET (RON = 30Ω typical) between VOUT and GND to actively discharge output capacitance during shutdown - critical for fast power sequencing in automotive infotainment and camera systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.5V ±1% at +25°C; maintains regulation across -40°C to +125°C ambient. |
| Max Output Current | 300mA guaranteed; foldback short-circuit protection limits current to ~55mA under VOUT-to-GND fault. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz; suppresses ripple from upstream switching regulators in POL applications. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz); enables clean supply for RF ICs and high-speed image sensors. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA typical; supports always-on automotive subsystems without excessive battery drain. |
| Dropout Voltage | 250mV max at 300mA (for VOUT = 2.5V); allows operation down to VIN = 2.75V while sustaining full load. |
| Enable Threshold | VEN(H) ≥ 1.3V, VEN(L) ≤ 0.5V; compatible with 1.8V/3.3V logic without level-shifting. |
| Thermal Shutdown | Triggers at +150°C with +20°C hysteresis; protects against sustained overload in compact PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
AP7343DQ-25FDZW-7 is packaged in W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) Type A1 - a 2.0mm × 2.0mm, 0.65mm height wettable flank package with exposed thermal pad (EP). The EP must be connected to PCB ground plane via multiple vias for optimal thermal dissipation (θJA = 54°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VIN) | Power Input | Accepts 1.7V–5.25V input; requires ≥0.47µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to minimize supply impedance. |
| 2 (EN) | Enable Control | Active-high logic input; must not float; drives regulator into <1µA shutdown when pulled low. |
| 3 (GND) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for input/output current; connects directly to EP and system ground plane. |
| 4 (VOUT) | Regulated Output | Delivers stable 2.5V; includes integrated discharge FET (30Ω) to rapidly deplete COUT during disable. |
| 5,6 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; recommended to tie to GND for enhanced thermal conduction and EMI reduction. |
| EP | Exposed Thermal Pad | Not electrically functional as GND; requires large copper area and ≥4 thermal vias to inner ground planes. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified | Validated for automotive operation from -40°C to +125°C junction temperature with PPAP support. |
| Integrated auto-discharge | 30Ω N-channel FET actively discharges VOUT to GND within microseconds upon EN deactivation. |
| Ultra-low noise output | 60µVrms noise floor enables direct powering of RF transceivers and CIS image sensors. |
| High PSRR at low frequency | 75dB rejection at 1kHz mitigates switching noise from buck converters feeding the LDO input. |
| Low quiescent current | 35µA operating current extends battery life in always-on vehicle modules like telematics and radar. |
| Wettable flank package | W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) Type A1 enables automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joints for production traceability. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP7343Q-25FDZW-7 | No integrated discharge FET; EN pin only disables regulation without active VOUT discharge. | Suitable where output hold time is acceptable or external discharge circuitry exists. | Select if auto-discharge is unnecessary and cost optimization is prioritized. |
| TLD1124-1ES/V48 | Higher 400mA rating, wider 2.5V–20V input range, but higher 70µA IQ and no AEC-Q100 Grade 1 certification. | Targeted at industrial lighting; lacks automotive qualification and wettable flank packaging. | Choose only for non-automotive designs requiring higher input voltage tolerance. |
Compared with AP7343Q-25FDZW-7, the DQ variant adds critical discharge functionality for automotive sequencing compliance, while TLD1124-1ES/V48 trades automotive qualification for broader input range - making AP7343DQ-25FDZW-7 the sole option meeting AEC-Q100 Grade 1, wettable flank, and integrated discharge requirements simultaneously.

FAQ
What distinguishes AP7343DQ-25FDZW-7 from the standard AP7343Q variant?
The "D" suffix indicates integrated auto-discharge functionality: an internal 30Ω N-channel FET actively pulls VOUT to GND when EN is low, ensuring rapid output decay. This eliminates need for external discharge resistors in automotive power sequencing, reducing BOM count and PCB area while improving startup repeatability.
Can AP7343DQ-25FDZW-7 operate with input voltage below 2.5V?
Yes - it supports VIN as low as 1.7V, but dropout voltage increases with load. At 300mA output, minimum VIN is 2.75V (2.5V + 250mV max dropout). Below that, regulation fails and VOUT drops linearly with VIN. For 2.5V output, operation below 2.75V is only viable at reduced load currents.
Is the exposed pad (EP) electrically connected to GND?
No - the EP is thermally conductive but electrically isolated. It must be soldered to a PCB ground plane using ≥4 thermal vias for heat dissipation, but must not serve as the primary GND connection. The dedicated Pin 3 (GND) remains the sole electrical ground reference for current return paths.
How does the W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) Type A1 package improve manufacturability?
This wettable flank package features solderable sidewalls enabling automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joint quality - critical for automotive production traceability. Its 2.0mm × 2.0mm footprint and 54°C/W θJA support high-density layouts while maintaining thermal performance comparable to larger packages.
