Product details
Overview
AP7361C-33Y5-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a 1A fixed-output (3.3V), ultra-low dropout linear regulator in SOT89-5 package with enable control, ±1% output accuracy, 360mV dropout at 1A, and 60µA quiescent current-designed for stable power delivery in battery-powered audio/video systems and portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the AP7361C-33Y5-13 datasheet, AP7361C-33Y5-13 pinout, AP7361C-33Y5-13 application, or AP7361C-33Y5-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at full load, EN logic thresholds, thermal shutdown threshold (150°C), PSRR (75dB @ 1kHz), and compatibility with 2.2µF MLCC output capacitors.
Technical Context
The AP7361C-33Y5-13 integrates a PMOS pass element, band-gap reference, error amplifier, and fold-back current limiting. Its fixed 3.3V output eliminates external resistor divider requirements while maintaining 0.8V internal reference for stability.
Enable functionality is implemented via active-high EN pin with 1.0V VIH and 0.3V VIL thresholds; thermal shutdown activates at 150°C with 20°C hysteresis, and short-circuit protection limits output to 400mA during fault conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±1% - ensures precise rail generation for 3.3V logic and interface circuits without external feedback components. |
| Dropout Voltage | 360mV typical at 1A - enables operation with VIN as low as 3.66V, critical for single-cell Li-ion or multi-cell alkaline systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 60µA typical - minimizes standby power loss in always-on subsystems such as real-time clocks or sensor wake-up circuitry. |
| PSRR | 75dB @ 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters, preserving signal integrity in audio and ADC reference paths. |
| Current Limit | 1.5A - provides robust overcurrent protection while supporting transient loads up to 1A continuous without derating. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C activation with 20°C hysteresis - prevents permanent damage during sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.2V to 6.0V - accommodates wide input sources including USB, boost regulators, and partially discharged batteries. |
| Output Capacitor | Stable with ≥2.2µF MLCC - reduces BOM count and board space versus electrolytic solutions; no minimum ESR requirement. |
Pinout & Package
SOT89-5 package: thermally enhanced 5-pin surface-mount outline with exposed pad (pin 4 = GND), optimized for ≤800mW power dissipation at +85°C ambient.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN) | Regulator input | Accepts 2.2–6.0V; requires ≥1µF ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin for noise suppression and stability. |
| 2 (GND) | Power ground | Common return path for IN, OUT, and EN; must be connected to low-impedance ground plane to maintain PSRR and thermal performance. |
| 3 (OUT) | Regulated output | Delivers 3.3V ±1% at up to 1A; requires ≥2.2µF ceramic capacitor directly between OUT and GND for transient response and stability. |
| 4 (GND) | Thermal pad / ground | Exposed pad tied to PCB ground plane via thermal vias; essential for achieving θJA = 150°C/W and preventing thermal shutdown. |
| 5 (EN) | Enable control | Active-high logic input (VIH ≥1.0V); pulling low disables output and reduces IQ to 0.05µA, enabling system-level power gating. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low dropout | 360mV at 1A output enables use in tight VIN–VOUT margin applications like 3.7V Li-ion to 3.3V rail conversion. |
| Fold-back short-circuit protection | Limits output to 400mA during hard shorts, reducing power dissipation and enabling safe auto-recovery without latch-off. |
| High PSRR | 75dB @ 1kHz rejects ripple from noisy switchers, eliminating need for additional LC filtering in sensitive analog subsystems. |
| Low-IQ operation | 60µA quiescent current extends battery runtime in always-on IoT sensors and wearable devices operating at microamp sleep currents. |
| Wide input range | 2.2–6.0V operation supports diverse sources including USB ports, buck-boost outputs, and multi-cell battery packs. |
| Green packaging | Halogen- and antimony-free, RoHS-compliant construction meets IEC 61249-2-21 and automotive environmental standards. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fixed-output LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700-3302E/TO | 300mA output, 175mV dropout at 250mA, 2.0µA IQ - lower current, lower IQ, higher dropout relative to 1A load. | Not suitable for >300mA loads; better for ultra-low-power MCU peripherals than audio or display subsystems. | Select when system load never exceeds 300mA and sub-µA shutdown current is required. |
| TLS850F3TAV50 | 500mA output, 200mV dropout at 500mA, integrated watchdog and reset - automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualified. | Designed for automotive body electronics; includes safety features unnecessary in consumer appliances or STBs. | Select only for automotive applications requiring functional safety compliance and extended temperature support. |

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable input voltage for AP7361C-33Y5-13?
The absolute maximum input voltage is 6.5V, but recommended operating range is 2.2V to 6.0V. Exceeding 6.0V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings. For reliable 3.3V output, VIN must remain ≥3.66V (3.3V + 360mV dropout) under 1A load to avoid regulation loss.
Can AP7361C-33Y5-13 operate without an output capacitor?
No. A minimum 2.2µF ceramic capacitor is required between OUT and GND for stability and transient response. Omitting it causes oscillation or output overshoot during load steps. The device is not internally compensated for zero-capacitance operation, and MLCC, tantalum, or solid polymer types ≥2.2µF are all supported.
How does the EN pin behave when left unconnected?
An unconnected EN pin is undefined and may float near logic threshold, causing erratic on/off behavior. Per datasheet guidance, unused EN must be tied to IN (not VDD or GND) to ensure reliable enablement. Internal pull-down resistance is not specified; external biasing is mandatory for deterministic operation.
Is thermal pad connection required for SOT89-5 package reliability?
Yes. Pin 4 is an exposed thermal pad that must be soldered to a PCB ground plane with ≥4 thermal vias. Without this, θJA degrades from rated 150°C/W to >200°C/W, increasing junction temperature by ~25°C at 1A load and triggering premature thermal shutdown in enclosed environments.
