Product details
Overview
AP7346D-1833FS6-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a dual-channel, high-accuracy current-limiting LDO regulator in X2-DFN1212-6 package, delivering fixed 1.8V and 3.3V outputs with ±1% accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 1kHz, and 60µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz). It features independent enable pins (EN1/EN2), low 35µA quiescent current (single-channel active), and integrated auto-discharge for rapid output shutdown - optimized for RF supply rails and portable media subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the AP7346D-1833FS6-7 datasheet, AP7346D-1833FS6-7 pinout, AP7346D-1833FS6-7 application, or AP7346D-1833FS6-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-output voltage pairing, channel-independent enable control, thermal performance in 1.2mm × 1.2mm DFN, current-limit accuracy (157mA ±25mA), and discharge-enabled transient response in space-constrained handheld designs.
Technical Context
The AP7346D-1833FS6-7 integrates two independent CMOS-based LDO regulators sharing a common VIN and GND, each with dedicated EN pin, precision voltage reference, error amplifier, and fold-back current limit circuitry. Its architecture supports simultaneous or staggered channel activation without cross-regulation coupling.
Each channel delivers fixed output (CH1 = 1.8V, CH2 = 3.3V) via internal resistor networks, with dropout voltages as low as 0.22V (CH2 @ 3.3V/120mA) and load regulation of ≤30mV across 1–120mA. The device includes built-in auto-discharge MOSFETs (50Ω typical on-resistance) activated during shutdown to rapidly discharge output capacitors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltages | CH1 = 1.8V, CH2 = 3.3V - fixed, non-adjustable; enables dual-rail power for baseband + RF ICs |
| Output Accuracy | ±1% at +25°C - ensures stable logic-level compliance for 1.8V I/O and 3.3V analog/RF circuitry |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters feeding shared VIN rail |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA (one channel active) - extends battery life in always-on sensor or standby subsystems |
| Current Limit | 157mA ±25mA per channel - provides predictable short-circuit protection without thermal runaway |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - preserves SNR in sensitive RF receivers and camera image signal processors |
| Enable Thresholds | EN low ≤0.5V, EN high ≥1.3V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIO without level-shifting |
Pinout & Package
X2-DFN1212-6 package: 1.2mm × 1.2mm footprint, 0.4mm pitch, exposed thermal pad (non-functional GND connection - requires external copper pour for thermal dissipation).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VOUT1 | 1.8V regulated output - powers core logic or low-voltage peripherals; requires local 0.47µF ceramic capacitor |
| 2 | VOUT2 | 3.3V regulated output - supplies RF transceivers or analog front-ends; decoupled independently from VOUT1 |
| 3 | GND | Common ground reference - must connect to low-impedance PCB ground plane; not tied to thermal pad |
| 4 | EN2 | Channel 2 enable input - high = 3.3V output active; low = shutdown with auto-discharge enabled |
| 5 | VIN | Input supply (1.7–5.25V) - shared by both regulators; requires 0.47µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin |
| 6 | EN1 | Channel 1 enable input - high = 1.8V output active; low = shutdown with auto-discharge enabled |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent enable control | EN1 and EN2 allow sequenced power-up/down of 1.8V and 3.3V rails - critical for SoC boot order compliance |
| Integrated auto-discharge | 50Ω NMOS discharge path per channel - reduces VOUT decay time to <100µs, preventing latch-up in downstream logic |
| Ultra-low noise output | 60µVrms broadband noise - avoids interference in RF receiver IF stages and high-resolution ADC references |
| High PSRR at low frequency | 75dB @ 1kHz - rejects ripple from buck converter switching frequencies and their harmonics |
| Wide input range | 1.7V to 5.25V operation - supports single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V), USB 5V, or boosted 3.3V rails |
Applications
| Fingerprint Module Power | Smartphone Baseband Subsystem |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP7345D-1833FS6-7 | Successor part; identical pinout, same 1.8V/3.3V outputs, improved current limit tolerance (±15mA vs ±25mA), lower 25µA IQ (single-channel) | Recommended for new designs; supports tighter load regulation (±15mV vs ±30mV) and enhanced thermal derating | Select when designing for production longevity and tighter accuracy requirements; drop-in replacement with no layout change |
| Torex XC6216D1833MR-G | 1.8V/3.3V dual LDO in SOT-26; higher 60µA IQ, no auto-discharge, 65dB PSRR @ 1kHz, ±2% VOUT accuracy | Lacks independent EN pins and discharge function; suited for cost-sensitive, non-sequencing applications | Choose only if board space allows SOT-26 and system does not require fast VOUT decay or precise sequencing |
Compared with AP7346D-1833FS6-7, the AP7345D-1833FS6-7 offers superior accuracy and efficiency for new designs, while the XC6216D1833MR-G trades off discharge capability and PSRR for lower cost and wider availability - making the AP7346D-1833FS6-7 optimal for legacy designs requiring guaranteed supply continuity and known transient behavior.

FAQ
What is the thermal pad connection requirement for AP7346D-1833FS6-7?
The exposed thermal pad on the X2-DFN1212-6 package must be connected to a large copper pour on the PCB for heat dissipation but should not serve as the sole GND connection. It may be left floating electrically or tied to GND through a separate low-impedance path - never used as the primary ground return for VIN or VOUT currents.
Can AP7346D-1833FS6-7 operate with only one channel enabled?
Yes - EN1 and EN2 are fully independent. Driving EN1 high and EN2 low activates only the 1.8V output, drawing 35µA quiescent current; driving EN2 high and EN1 low activates only the 3.3V output with identical IQ. Both channels can be disabled simultaneously for 0.1–1.0µA standby current.
Is AP7346D-1833FS6-7 qualified for automotive use?
No - the AP7346D-1833FS6-7 is specified for industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) and is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Diodes offers automotive-grade variants (e.g., AP7346Q) with PPAP support and IATF 16949 manufacturing, but this specific part number is intended for commercial portable electronics.
How does the auto-discharge function behave during shutdown?
When either EN pin is pulled low, the corresponding channel's output is actively discharged through an internal 50Ω NMOS transistor to GND, reducing VOUT to <100mV within ~50µs (typical) for a 1µF load. This prevents residual voltage from interfering with downstream logic states or causing unintended wake events.
