Product details
Overview
AP7347D-12W5-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 500mA, 1.2V fixed-output low-dropout linear regulator with ±1% output voltage accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 1kHz, 60µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz), and 60µA quiescent current. It features enable control, thermal shutdown, short-circuit protection, and auto-discharge functionality. Designed for noise-sensitive automotive and portable electronics, it operates across 1.7V–5.5V input and delivers stable 1.2V power to microcontrollers, sensors, and RF circuitry.
For engineers reviewing the AP7347D-12W5-7 datasheet, AP7347D-12W5-7 pinout, AP7347D-12W5-7 application, or AP7347D-12W5-7 equivalent, this LDO's high PSRR, low-noise performance, automotive-grade thermal robustness (−40°C to +125°C ambient), and SOT25 package make it suitable for precision power rails in battery-powered systems, infotainment modules, and industrial controllers where supply rejection and standby efficiency are critical.
Technical Context
The AP7347D-12W5-7 integrates a CMOS-based error amplifier, precision voltage reference, current-limit circuit, and enable-controlled N-channel pass transistor with auto-discharge capability. Its architecture supports fast load/line transient response and maintains stability with only 1µF ceramic input/output capacitors.
It implements thermal shutdown at +170°C with +20°C hysteresis, foldback short-circuit current limiting (~180mA), and EN logic thresholds (VIL ≤ 0.5V, VIH ≥ 1.25V). The device achieves dropout as low as 0.65V at 500mA for 1.2V output and exhibits ±30ppm/°C output voltage temperature coefficient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.2V ±1% - ensures precise biasing for 1.2V-core logic and low-voltage analog circuits without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 500mA - sufficient to power SoCs, PMICs, or multi-rail sensor subsystems from a single LDO stage. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC-DC converters, critical for ADC reference and RF front-end supplies. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - enables clean power delivery to noise-sensitive PLLs, audio codecs, and precision amplifiers. |
| Quiescent Current | 60µA - extends battery life in always-on monitoring nodes and low-power wake-up circuits. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.65V (typ.) at 500mA - allows operation down to 1.85V input while sustaining 1.2V output, supporting single-cell Li-ion or dual-cell alkaline inputs. |
| Enable Thresholds | VIH = 1.25V, VIL = 0.5V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIO control without level-shifting. |
| Thermal Shutdown | +170°C with +20°C hysteresis - prevents latch-up during sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
Pinout & Package
SOT25 (Type A1) package: 5-pin surface-mount, 2.9mm × 2.8mm footprint, wettable flank option for automated optical inspection. Exposed pad not present; thermal dissipation relies on copper area under pins 2 (GND) and 3 (EN).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VIN) | Power Input | Accepts 1.7V–5.5V input; requires local 1µF ceramic decoupling to ground for stability and noise suppression. |
| 2 (EN) | Enable Control | Active-high logic input; must be driven to GND or VIN-floating state disables regulation and risks erratic behavior. |
| 3 (GND) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for input/output currents; connects directly to system ground plane to minimize noise coupling. |
| 4 (VOUT) | Regulated Output | Delivers 1.2V ±1% at up to 500mA; requires local 1µF ceramic capacitor to maintain transient response and phase margin. |
| 5 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; recommended to tie to GND for improved thermal conduction and EMI shielding. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High PSRR (75dB @ 1kHz) | Rejects ripple from noisy switchers, enabling mixed-signal SoC power domains without additional filtering. |
| Low 60µVrms noise | Eliminates need for post-LDO LC filters in RF and high-resolution data acquisition paths. |
| Auto-discharge via 30Ω NMOS | Drains VOUT within microseconds after shutdown, preventing back-powering of downstream circuitry. |
| ±1% output accuracy over temp | Guarantees timing margin compliance for 1.2V core voltages in FPGA and MCU applications across full operating range. |
| Thermal shutdown + hysteresis | Prevents thermal runaway during sustained overload while allowing safe recovery without manual reset. |
| Lead-free, halogen-free, RoHS 3 compliant | Meets automotive and industrial environmental mandates without compromising electrical performance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1703T-1202E/MB | 1.2V fixed, 250mA max, 120µA IQ, no auto-discharge, SOT23-5 package | Limited to lower-current peripherals; lacks discharge function for strict power sequencing. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs current capability and discharge requirement. |
| Torex XC6210B122MR-G | 1.2V fixed, 500mA, 80µA IQ, 65dB PSRR @ 1kHz, no thermal shutdown hysteresis | Lower PSRR and missing thermal hysteresis reduce robustness in thermally constrained enclosures. | Choose only if footprint compatibility with XC6210 series is mandatory and thermal margin is verified. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for AP7347D-12W5-7 to regulate 1.2V output at 500mA?
The AP7347D-12W5-7 requires a minimum input voltage of 1.85V to sustain 1.2V output at 500mA, based on its typical dropout voltage of 0.65V at that load. At higher temperatures or worst-case process corners, the maximum dropout may reach 0.80V, so 2.0V input is recommended for margin in production designs.
Can the NC pin (Pin 5) be left floating in the SOT25 package?
No-Pin 5 (NC) must not be left floating. Although internally unconnected, Diodes recommends tying it to GND to maximize PCB copper area for thermal dissipation and improve EMI shielding. Leaving it unconnected reduces thermal performance and may increase radiated emissions.
Does AP7347D-12W5-7 include reverse-current protection?
No-the AP7347D-12W5-7 does not integrate reverse-current protection. Its internal N-channel pass transistor allows reverse current flow from VOUT to VIN when VOUT > VIN. External Schottky diode or ideal diode controller is required if backfeed prevention is needed in the system design.
Is AP7347D-12W5-7 qualified for automotive applications?
The standard AP7347D-12W5-7 is not AEC-Q200 qualified; however, the automotive-grade variant AP7347DQ-12W5-7 is available separately and meets AEC-Q200 Grade 1 (−40°C to +125°C) requirements, including extended reliability testing and enhanced process controls.
