Product details
Overview
AP7343Q-25W5-7 from Diodes Incorporated is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive-compliant low-dropout regulator delivering fixed 2.5V output at up to 300mA, with ±1% output voltage accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 1kHz, and 60µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz). It operates from 1.7V to 5.25V input, features enable control, thermal shutdown, and short-circuit protection, and is optimized for noise-sensitive ADAS camera and RF power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the AP7343Q-25W5-7 datasheet, AP7343Q-25W5-7 pinout, AP7343Q-25W5-7 application, or AP7343Q-25W5-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 300mA load capability in SOT25, automotive-grade qualification (IATF 16949, PPAP-capable), low 35µA quiescent current, and validated performance across –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature.
Technical Context
The AP7343Q-25W5-7 integrates a CMOS-based error amplifier, precision voltage reference, current-limit circuit, and thermal shutdown logic. Its architecture delivers fast line/load transient response without requiring external compensation, enabled by internal resistor network for fixed 2.5V output.
It supports active enable control (EN pin thresholds: 0–0.5V low, 1.3–5.25V high), includes foldback short-circuit protection (~55mA), and achieves 0.25V typical dropout at 300mA (VOUT = 2.5V), with thermal resistance θJA = 179°C/W in SOT25 package.
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 continuous; sustains full load under worst-case VIN = 3.5V and TA = +125°C. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz; suppresses ripple from noisy DC-DC stages feeding infotainment or RF subsystems. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz); enables clean biasing of automotive image sensors and RF synthesizers. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA typical; minimizes standby power loss in always-on ADAS modules. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.25V typical at 300mA (VIN ≥ 2.75V required for full 2.5V regulation). |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C ambient; qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood and cabin applications. |
Pinout & Package
AP7343Q-25W5-7 is packaged in SOT25 (5-pin, 2.9mm × 2.8mm × 1.3mm), with exposed pad not electrically connected - recommended for thermal copper tie to GND.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VIN | Main power input; requires ≥0.47µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| 2 | EN | Active-high enable; must be driven to ≥1.3V to activate regulator; floating prohibited. |
| 3 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference; connects to PCB ground plane for low-impedance return path. |
| 4 | VOUT | Regulated 2.5V output; requires ≥1µF ceramic capacitor placed within 2mm of pin for stability. |
| 5 | NC | No-connect terminal; internally unconnected; recommended to tie to GND for thermal enhancement. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automotive Qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 1, PPAP-capable, manufactured in IATF 16949-certified facilities. |
| Low-Noise Regulation | 60µVrms output noise enables direct powering of RF ICs and high-resolution image sensors. |
| High PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz ensures rejection of switching noise from upstream DC-DC converters. |

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 | Same electrical specs, but in W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) Type A1 package (θJA = 54°C/W vs. 179°C/W). | Better thermal performance for higher ambient or sustained 300mA loads; requires different PCB footprint and reflow profile. | Select when thermal margin is constrained and board space permits smaller 2.0mm × 2.0mm footprint. |
| TLD1120FV-25 | 2.5V, 300mA AEC-Q100 LDO with integrated watchdog timer and diagnostic pins; higher IQ (65µA). | Supports functional safety monitoring (ISO 26262 ASIL-B ready); adds complexity for basic regulation needs. | Select only if system-level diagnostics or fail-safe behavior are required beyond basic voltage regulation. |
Compared with AP7343Q-25FDZW-7, the SOT25 variant offers simpler assembly and legacy compatibility; versus TLD1120FV-25, it provides lower cost and lower IQ where diagnostics are unnecessary.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for AP7343Q-25W5-7 to maintain 2.5V output at 300mA?
The minimum input voltage is 2.75V, based on the typical 0.25V dropout voltage at 300mA load and 2.5V nominal output. At worst-case conditions (–40°C to +125°C, 300mA), dropout may reach 0.36V, requiring VIN ≥ 2.86V for guaranteed regulation. Input must remain within 1.7V–5.25V operating range.
Can the EN pin be left unconnected or tied to VIN?
No - the EN pin must never be left floating. If enable functionality is unused, it must be hard-wired to VIN (not through a resistor) to ensure reliable turn-on. Floating EN causes undefined regulator state and potential oscillation due to noise coupling, violating functional safety requirements for automotive use.
Is AP7343Q-25W5-7 compatible with 1µF ceramic output capacitors?
Yes - the device is explicitly characterized and stable with 1µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitors (ESR < 10mΩ). Layout best practice requires placing COUT within 2mm of VOUT and GND pins, using short wide traces, and connecting GND to a solid ground plane to maintain PSRR and transient response performance.
Does AP7343Q-25W5-7 include output discharge functionality?
No - AP7343Q-25W5-7 is the non-discharge variant (suffix 'Q' without 'D'). It lacks an internal discharge FET; VOUT will decay only through load leakage or external bleed resistors. For rapid VOUT discharge on shutdown, select AP7343DQ-25W5-7, which integrates a 30Ω discharge path.
