Product details
Overview
AP7354-12SA-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a fixed 1.2V, 150mA ultra-low quiescent current LDO regulator in SOT23 package, featuring ±1% output voltage accuracy over temperature, 0.25µA quiescent current, and enable-controlled shutdown for battery-sensitive applications such as wearable sensors and IoT edge nodes.
For engineers reviewing the AP7354-12SA-7 datasheet, AP7354-12SA-7 pinout, AP7354-12SA-7 application, or AP7354-12SA-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 150mA (0.60V max at 1.2V), EN logic thresholds (0.4V low / 1.0V high), thermal resistance (170°C/W), and compatibility with 0.1µF ceramic input/output capacitors.
Technical Context
The AP7354-12SA-7 integrates a precision voltage reference, error amplifier, current-limit circuit, and active-high enable input to deliver stable 1.2V output across 2.0–5.5V input range. Its internal resistor network fixes VOUT without external feedback components.
It operates in dropout mode down to 0.60V (typ.) at full 150mA load and achieves 0.02µA standby current when EN is pulled low. The device lacks output discharge functionality-confirmed by its "SA" (SOT23, non-discharge) suffix per Diodes' ordering guide.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.2V ±1% at +25°C; ±2% over –40°C to +85°C - ensures stable rail for low-power MCUs and sensors. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA - sufficient to power BLE SoCs, MEMS sensors, or camera modules without thermal derating in SOT23. |
| Quiescent Current | 0.25µA typ. - extends battery life in always-on wearables; drops to 0.02µA in shutdown via EN pin. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.0V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V), coin cells (3V), or regulated 3.3V/5V rails. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.60V max at 150mA (VOUT = 1.2V) - enables regulation from 1.8V input, critical for low-VIN energy harvesting systems. |
| Enable Thresholds | VEN(H) ≥ 1.0V, VEN(L) ≤ 0.4V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIOs without level-shifting. |
| Thermal Resistance | θJA = 170°C/W (SOT23) - limits junction rise to ~25°C above ambient at 150mA under typical PCB layout. |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-3 package (JEDEC TO-236AB), 1.3mm × 2.9mm footprint, 0.915mm height, matte tin-plated leads, RoHS-compliant and halogen-free.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VIN | Main power input; requires 0.1µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin to suppress supply noise and support transient response. |
| 2 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference; must connect directly to low-impedance PCB ground plane to minimize voltage drop and ensure regulation accuracy. |
| 3 | VOUT | Regulated 1.2V output; connects to load and output capacitor; no internal discharge path (non-D variant). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low IQ | 0.25µA typ. enables >1-year operation on a CR2032 (220mAh) powering a 1µA sleep-mode sensor node. |
| High Accuracy | ±1% initial tolerance and ±2% over temperature ensures reliable ADC reference or core voltage for 1.2V logic domains. |
| Wide Input Range | 2.0–5.5V operation supports direct connection to unregulated battery sources without pre-regulation stages. |
| Enable Control | Active-high EN allows precise system-level power sequencing and zero-current shutdown for firmware-controlled power gating. |
| Stable with Small Caps | Guaranteed stability with 0.1µF X5R/X7R ceramics eliminates need for bulky tantalum or aluminum electrolytics. |
Applications
| Wearable Health Monitor | IoT 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-1202E/TT | 1.2V, 250mA, 1.6µA IQ, SOT23-3 - 6.4× higher quiescent current than AP7354-12SA-7. | Less suitable for multi-year battery life; acceptable where 150mA load headroom is needed. | Choose if higher output current margin is prioritized over ultra-low IQ. |
| NCP170AMX120TCG | 1.2V, 150mA, 0.5µA IQ, SOT23-3 - 2× higher quiescent current, same accuracy and package. | Shorter battery runtime in always-on use cases; identical thermal and layout behavior. | Choose only if Diodes' supply chain constraints require second-source qualification. |
Compared with MCP1700T-1202E/TT and NCP170AMX120TCG, the AP7354-12SA-7 delivers the lowest quiescent current (0.25µA) in the SOT23-3 form factor while maintaining 150mA capability and ±1% accuracy-making it optimal for multi-year battery deployments where every nanoamp counts.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable input voltage for AP7354-12SA-7?
The absolute maximum input voltage is 6.0V per the datasheet Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Operation above 5.5V violates recommended conditions and risks permanent damage. For continuous operation, VIN must remain within 2.0V–5.5V, with derating applied above +40°C ambient due to thermal limitations of the SOT23 package.
Does AP7354-12SA-7 include output discharge functionality?
No. The "SA" suffix explicitly denotes SOT23 packaging without output discharge. Only variants with "D" in the part number (e.g., AP7354D-12W5-7) integrate an internal discharge FET. This version holds VOUT high after shutdown until external leakage discharges the output capacitor.
Can AP7354-12SA-7 be used with ceramic capacitors smaller than 0.1µF?
No. The datasheet specifies stability with ≥0.1µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitors on both input and output. Using smaller values risks oscillation or poor transient response, especially under load steps up to 150mA. Layout proximity and low-ESR characteristics are equally critical.
Is the EN pin internally pulled up or down on AP7354-12SA-7?
There is no internal pull-up or pull-down on the EN pin. It must be actively driven high (≥1.0V) to enable regulation or low (≤0.4V) to enter shutdown. Leaving EN floating causes undefined operation and potential shoot-through or latch-up; tie to VIN if always-on operation is required.
