Product details
Overview
AP7347DQ-18FDZW-7 from Diodes Incorporated is an automotive-grade 1.8V fixed-output low-dropout linear regulator delivering 500mA output current with ±1% output voltage accuracy, 75dB PSRR at 1kHz, and 60µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz). It features enable control, thermal shutdown, short-circuit protection, and auto-discharge functionality-designed for noise-sensitive power rails in ADAS camera modules and infotainment systems.
For engineers reviewing the AP7347DQ-18FDZW-7 datasheet, AP7347DQ-18FDZW-7 pinout, AP7347DQ-18FDZW-7 application, or AP7347DQ-18FDZW-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification, WDFN2020-6 wettable flank package, 0.14–0.32V dropout at 500mA (for VOUT = 1.8V), 60µA quiescent current, and integrated EN-controlled shutdown with 0.01µA standby current.
Technical Context
The AP7347DQ-18FDZW-7 implements a CMOS-based LDO architecture with internal voltage reference, error amplifier, current-limit circuit, and thermal shutdown. Its fixed 1.8V output is set by an on-chip resistor network, eliminating external feedback components.
It supports input voltages from 1.7V to 5.5V and delivers stable regulation across –40°C to +125°C ambient, with junction temperature up to +150°C. The device includes auto-discharge via a 30Ω N-channel FET when disabled, ensuring rapid VOUT decay to prevent system latch-up during power sequencing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.8V ±1% - ensures precise rail generation for 1.8V I/O or core logic without external resistors. |
| Max Output Current | 500mA - sufficient to power multiple automotive sensors or RF ICs from a single LDO. |
| PSRR | 75dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters in mixed-power-supply systems. |
| Output Noise | 60µVrms (10Hz–100kHz) - enables clean analog/RF supply for camera image signal processors and transceivers. |
| Quiescent Current | 60µA typical - minimizes battery drain in always-on automotive subsystems like telematics wake-up circuits. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.27V max at 500mA (for 1.8V output) - allows operation from 2.07V input, supporting wide VIN range in start-stop vehicle systems. |
| Enable Threshold | VEN(HI) ≥ 1.25V, VEN(LO) ≤ 0.5V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIOs for controlled power sequencing. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 170°C threshold with 20°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload in compact automotive PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
AP7347DQ-18FDZW-7 uses the W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) wettable flank package (2.0mm × 2.0mm, 0.75mm height), optimized for automated optical inspection (AOI) and high-density automotive PCBs. The exposed pad (EP) must be connected to GND for thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VOUT | Regulated 1.8V output - connect directly to load with low-impedance ceramic capacitor (≥1µF) placed adjacent to pin. |
| 2, 5 | NC | No-connect terminals - recommended to tie to GND for enhanced thermal dissipation and EMI shielding. |
| 3 | GND | Power ground reference - must be routed to solid ground plane with minimal trace length to reduce noise coupling. |
| 4 | EN | Active-high enable - drives regulator ON/OFF; floating state prohibited; requires defined logic level per datasheet thresholds. |
| 6 | VIN | Input supply (1.7–5.5V) - decoupled with ≥1µF ceramic capacitor placed within 2mm of pin to suppress input transients. |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Thermal path - must be soldered to large GND copper area (≥40mm²) for θJA = 54°C/W and reliable 500mA operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified | Validated for –40°C to +125°C ambient operation - meets automotive reliability and change-control requirements. |
| Auto-discharge function | 30Ω internal N-FET discharges VOUT when EN = LOW - eliminates hold-up voltage that could disrupt downstream logic reset timing. |
| Low-noise CMOS design | 60µVrms noise floor - avoids interference with sensitive analog blocks like ADCs, PLLs, and RF receivers in ADAS systems. |
| Wettable flank package | W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) - enables AOI-compatible solder joint inspection critical for zero-defect automotive manufacturing. |
| High PSRR at low frequency | 75dB @ 1kHz - rejects ripple from buck converter switching frequencies (e.g., 500kHz fundamental harmonics) before they couple into analog rails. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 60µA typical - extends battery life in always-on domains such as CAN gateway wake detection and intrusion monitoring. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fixed-output automotive LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS74518PQWDRBRQ1 | Lower IQ (25µA), higher PSRR (80dB @ 1kHz), but only 300mA output and larger 2.5mm × 2.5mm SON package. | Better suited for ultra-low-power always-on nodes, but insufficient for 500mA camera ISPs. | Select if IQ <30µA is mandatory and load current ≤300mA; avoid for ADAS camera power. |
| NCP114AMX18T2G | Non-automotive grade (no AEC-Q100), 300mA output, 50µVrms noise, SOT-563 package - lacks wettable flanks and thermal robustness. | Acceptable for non-safety-critical consumer-tier modules, but fails PPAP and IATF 16949 traceability requirements. | Use only in cost-sensitive non-automotive designs; not compliant for OEM production. |
Compared with TPS74518PQWDRBRQ1 and NCP114AMX18T2G, the AP7347DQ-18FDZW-7 uniquely balances 500mA delivery, AEC-Q100 compliance, wettable flank inspection capability, and 60µVrms noise - making it the only option validated for high-current, safety-aware ADAS camera power rails.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable input voltage for AP7347DQ-18FDZW-7?
The absolute maximum input voltage is 6.0V, but the recommended operating range is 1.7V to 5.5V. Exceeding 5.5V risks permanent damage even for brief transients; automotive systems with load-dump spikes require external clamping or pre-regulation.
Does AP7347DQ-18FDZW-7 require an external discharge resistor?
No. The device integrates an auto-discharge N-channel FET (RDS(on) ≈ 30Ω) between VOUT and GND when EN is low, eliminating need for external components. This ensures VOUT decays rapidly (<1ms typical) to prevent back-powering or logic contention.
Can AP7347DQ-18FDZW-7 operate with ceramic output capacitors smaller than 1µF?
Stability is guaranteed only with ≥1µF ceramic output capacitance (X5R/X7R, 0603 or larger). Capacitors below 1µF may cause oscillation or poor transient response, especially under 500mA load steps - per Section 12.1 of DS42799 Rev. 5-2.
Is the W-DFN2020-6 (SWP) package lead-free and RoHS-compliant?
Yes. AP7347DQ-18FDZW-7 is fully RoHS 3 compliant (2015/863/EU), halogen- and antimony-free ("Green"), with matte tin-plated terminations meeting MIL-STD-202 Method 208 solderability requirements.
