Product details
Overview
AP7343Q-29FDZW-7 from Diodes Incorporated is an automotive-grade 300mA low-dropout linear regulator with fixed 2.9V output, ±1% 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 qualified for ADAS camera and infotainment power rails.
For engineers reviewing the AP7343Q-29FDZW-7 datasheet, AP7343Q-29FDZW-7 pinout, AP7343Q-29FDZW-7 application, or AP7343Q-29FDZW-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) Type A1 package thermal performance (θJA = 54°C/W), dropout voltage ≤0.22V at 300mA (for VOUT > 3.0V), and EN pin logic thresholds (VIL ≤ 0.5V, VIH ≥ 1.3V).
Technical Context
The AP7343Q-29FDZW-7 uses a CMOS-based LDO architecture with integrated voltage reference, error amplifier, current limit, and thermal shutdown circuitry. Its fixed 2.9V output is set by an internal resistor network, eliminating external feedback components.
It delivers stable regulation under fast load transients (e.g., 1mA ↔ 300mA step) with <±15mV load regulation and supports ultra-low quiescent current (35µA typ.) for always-on automotive subsystems. The device lacks built-in output discharge (non-D variant), requiring external circuitry if rapid VOUT decay is needed.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.9V ±1% at +25°C; ensures precise rail generation for 2.9V-specified sensors or RF ICs. |
| Max Output Current | 300mA guaranteed; supports moderate-power automotive loads like camera ISPs or CAN transceivers. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz; suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters in noisy automotive environments. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz); critical for noise-sensitive analog circuits such as RF front-ends and image sensors. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA typical; enables low standby power in battery-backed modules without compromising wake-up responsiveness. |
| Dropout Voltage | ≤0.22V at 300mA (VOUT > 3.0V); allows operation down to VIN = 3.12V, extending battery runtime in 12V systems with wide input variation. |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +125°C junction; validated for under-hood and cabin-mounted ADAS ECUs per AEC-Q100 Grade 1. |
Pinout & Package
AP7343Q-29FDZW-7 is packaged in W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) Type A1 - a 2.0mm × 2.0mm, 0.65mm pitch, wettable flank package with exposed thermal pad (EP). This footprint enables high-density PCB layout and superior thermal dissipation (θJA = 54°C/W) versus SOT25.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 1) | Power Input | Accepts 1.7V–5.25V supply; requires local 0.47µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to minimize input impedance. |
| EN (Pin 2) | Enable Control | Active-high logic input; must be driven to ≥1.3V to enable regulation, ≤0.5V to enter shutdown (IQ = 0.01µA). |
| GND (Pin 3) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for input/output current; connects to PCB ground plane to reduce noise coupling and improve stability. |
| VOUT (Pin 4) | Regulated Output | Delivers fixed 2.9V ±1%; requires 1µF ceramic output capacitor placed near load to ensure transient response and stability. |
| NC (Pin 5) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; recommended to tie to GND for enhanced thermal conduction via PCB copper area. |
| NC (Pin 6) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; same thermal recommendation as Pin 5. |
| EP | Exposed Thermal Pad | Not electrically functional; must be soldered to large GND copper pour to achieve rated θJA and prevent thermal shutdown. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 Qualified | Validated for automotive use from -40°C to +125°C ambient, supporting PPAP documentation and IATF 16949 manufacturing. |
| High PSRR & Low Noise | 75dB rejection at 1kHz and 60µVrms noise enable clean power for RF receivers and high-resolution ADCs in ADAS cameras. |
| Ultra-Low Quiescent Current | 35µA typical operating current allows integration into always-on domains (e.g., vehicle wake-up controllers) without excessive battery drain. |
| Thermal & Short-Circuit Protection | Auto-shutdown at +150°C junction temperature and foldback current limiting (~55mA short-circuit current) prevent damage during fault conditions. |
| Wide Input Range | 1.7V–5.25V operation supports direct connection to 3.3V or 5V rails and accommodates cold-crank dips in 12V systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP7343Q-29W5-7 | SOT25 package (θJA = 179°C/W); larger footprint; no wettable flanks. | Lower power density; suitable for non-thermally constrained boards or prototyping. | Select when board space permits and thermal budget allows higher junction temperature rise. |
| TLD1120FV | Infineon automotive LDO; 2.9V output, 350mA, but higher IQ (60µA typ.) and lower PSRR (65dB @ 1kHz). | Less effective noise suppression in RF-heavy designs; wider dropout (0.3V @ 300mA). | Choose only if dual-sourcing is required and PSRR/noise specs are relaxed for the target application. |
Compared with AP7343Q-29W5-7, the FDZW variant offers 3.3× lower thermal resistance for identical power dissipation, while TLD1120FV trades off noise performance and efficiency to meet Infineon's functional safety architecture-making AP7343Q-29FDZW-7 optimal for thermally dense, noise-critical ADAS nodes.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable input voltage for AP7343Q-29FDZW-7?
The absolute maximum input voltage is 6.0V, but the recommended operating range is 1.7V to 5.25V. Exceeding 5.25V may trigger overvoltage protection or degrade long-term reliability, especially at high ambient temperatures. Operation above 5.25V is not characterized or guaranteed per the datasheet.
Does AP7343Q-29FDZW-7 include output discharge functionality?
No. The "Q" suffix (vs. "DQ") indicates the non-discharge variant. When disabled via the EN pin, the output remains floating and does not actively pull VOUT to GND. If rapid discharge is required, an external NMOS switch or bleed resistor must be added between VOUT and GND.
Can AP7343Q-29FDZW-7 be used with ceramic output capacitors smaller than 1µF?
Yes, the device is stable with ceramic capacitors as low as 0.47µF, but 1µF is recommended for optimal transient response and PSRR performance across temperature. Using <1µF may increase output voltage deviation during fast load steps (e.g., >100mA/µs) and reduce noise filtering effectiveness at high frequencies.
How is thermal performance affected if the exposed pad (EP) is not connected to GND?
Leaving the EP unconnected or floating increases θJA by ~20–30°C/W, significantly raising junction temperature under load. For 300mA output at 125°C ambient, this can cause premature thermal shutdown. Diodes recommends soldering EP to a minimum 4mm² GND copper area with ≥4 thermal vias to maintain rated thermal resistance.
