Product details
Overview
AP7351D-15FS4-7B from Diodes Incorporated is a 1.5V fixed-output, 150mA ultra-low quiescent current LDO regulator in X2-DFN1010-4 (Type B) package, featuring ±1% output voltage accuracy, 0.5µA quiescent current, and enable-controlled shutdown-designed for power management in wearable electronics and IoT sensor modules.
For engineers reviewing the AP7351D-15FS4-7B datasheet, AP7351D-15FS4-7B pinout, AP7351D-15FS4-7B application, or AP7351D-15FS4-7B equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 150mA (0.43V typ), thermal shutdown threshold (+160°C), active output discharge, and compatibility with 0.1µF ceramic input/output capacitors.
Technical Context
The AP7351D-15FS4-7B integrates a precision voltage reference, error amplifier, current-limit circuit, and active output discharge path. Its enable input supports direct logic-level control with EN high threshold ≥1.0V and low threshold ≤0.4V, enabling precise power sequencing in battery-constrained systems.
It operates across 1.4V to 5.5V input range while maintaining 1.5V output with ±1% accuracy at +25°C and ±2% over −40°C to +85°C. PSRR reaches 60dB at 1kHz, and dropout voltage is specified at 0.43V (typ) / 0.75V (max) under 150mA load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5V ±1% at +25°C; ensures stable bias for low-voltage MCUs and sensors without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA continuous; sufficient to power BLE SoCs, image sensor interfaces, or multi-node sensor hubs. |
| Quiescent Current | 0.5µA typical; extends battery life in always-on wearables by minimizing standby drain. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.43V (typ) at 150mA; enables operation down to 1.93V input, critical for single-cell Li-ion or coin-cell applications. |
| PSRR | 60dB at 1kHz; suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC-DC converters in mixed-signal PCB layouts. |
| Enable Thresholds | VEN(H) ≥1.0V, VEN(L) ≤0.4V; compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIO without level-shifting. |
| Thermal Shutdown | +160°C with +20°C hysteresis; protects against sustained overload in sealed enclosures. |
Pinout & Package
X2-DFN1010-4 (Type B) package: 1.0mm × 1.0mm, 0.65mm pitch, exposed thermal pad (EP) - requires PCB copper area connected to GND for optimal thermal dissipation (θJA = 237°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PIN1 (VOUT) | Regulated output node | Delivers clean 1.5V; must be decoupled with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor placed <1mm from pin. |
| PIN2 (GND) | Power ground reference | Primary return path for load current; connects to EP for thermal conduction and low-impedance grounding. |
| PIN3 (EN) | Active-high enable control | Drives regulator ON/OFF; floating state is invalid; tie to VIN if always-on operation required. |
| PIN4 (VIN) | Input power supply | Accepts 1.4–5.5V; requires local 0.1µF ceramic capacitor between PIN4 and PIN2 to suppress supply transients. |
| EP (Exposed Pad) | Thermal & mechanical anchor | Not electrically functional as GND; soldered to large copper pour tied to system GND for thermal relief. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low IQ | 0.5µA typical enables >1-year battery life in 10µA average-current wearable devices using CR2032. |
| Active Output Discharge | 35Ω internal discharge path pulls VOUT to GND within 100µs after EN deactivation-prevents floating rail during power sequencing. |
| Stable with 0.1µF COUT | Eliminates need for bulk capacitance; reduces BOM count and PCB area in space-constrained IoT nodes. |
| Wide Input Range | 1.4V min input supports direct connection to partially discharged Li-ion (2.8V–4.2V) or alkaline (1.5V×2) sources. |
| ±1% Output Accuracy | Meets tight tolerance requirements of ADC references, RF front-end biasing, and low-power MCU cores. |
Applications
| Wearable Fitness Tracker | IoT Environmental Sensor Node |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP7361D-15FS4-7B | 250mA output rating, same 0.5µA IQ, identical pinout and package | Supports higher peak loads (e.g., camera flash LED drivers) but larger dropout (0.55V typ @250mA) | Select when future design scaling requires >150mA margin without layout change. |
| MCP1700T-1502E/TT | 250mA, 1.6µA IQ, SOT-23-5 package, no active discharge | Lacks output discharge; requires external MOSFET for rail collapse; higher quiescent current increases standby drain | Choose only if SOT-23-5 footprint is mandatory and active discharge is not needed. |
Compared with AP7351D-15FS4-7B, AP7361D-15FS4-7B trades higher current capability for slightly worse dropout, while MCP1700T-1502E/TT sacrifices ultra-low IQ and discharge functionality for legacy package compatibility.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for AP7351D-15FS4-7B to regulate 1.5V output at full 150mA load?
The minimum input voltage is determined by dropout voltage: at 150mA, typical dropout is 0.43V, so VIN(min) = 1.5V + 0.43V = 1.93V. The absolute minimum VIN specification is 1.4V, but regulation fails below 1.93V under full load. For reliable operation, maintain VIN ≥2.0V at peak current.
Does AP7351D-15FS4-7B require an external pull-up resistor on the EN pin?
No external pull-up is required. The EN pin has no internal pull-up; it must be driven actively high (≥1.0V) or low (≤0.4V). If always-on operation is needed, connect EN directly to VIN. Leaving EN floating violates Absolute Maximum Ratings and may cause erratic behavior or damage.
Can AP7351D-15FS4-7B be used with ceramic capacitors smaller than 0.1µF?
No. The datasheet specifies stability with ≥0.1µF ceramic output capacitance (X5R/X7R dielectric). Using smaller values risks oscillation due to insufficient phase margin. Input capacitor must also be ≥0.1µF ceramic, placed within 1mm of VIN and GND pins.
Is the exposed pad (EP) on the X2-DFN1010-4 (Type B) package electrically connected to GND?
No-the EP is thermally conductive but electrically isolated. It must be soldered to a PCB copper area tied to system GND for heat dissipation, but it serves no electrical function and must not be used as the sole GND connection point. Pin 2 (GND) remains the primary electrical ground terminal.
