Product details
Overview
AP7365-25WG-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a fixed-output 2.5V, 600mA low-dropout linear regulator in SOT25 package with 35μA quiescent current, 300mV dropout at full load, and integrated enable control. It delivers stable power to FPGA I/O rails and DSP core supplies in battery-powered notebooks and servers where low standby power and fast transient response are critical.
For engineers reviewing the AP7365-25WG-7 datasheet, AP7365-25WG-7 pinout, AP7365-25WG-7 application, or AP7365-25WG-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 600mA, PSRR at 1kHz, thermal shutdown threshold, EN logic thresholds, and stability with 1μF ceramic output capacitor.
Technical Context
The AP7365-25WG-7 implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low quiescent current (35μA typ.) while maintaining 600mA output capability. Its bandgap reference and error amplifier deliver ±2% output accuracy across –40°C to +85°C ambient.
Internal current limiting (1.4A typ.) and thermal shutdown (+145°C trip, +130°C hysteresis) operate independently of external components. The device achieves 65dB PSRR at 1kHz and stabilizes with only 1μF ceramic output capacitance due to optimized internal compensation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.5V ±2% over –40°C to +85°C; enables direct replacement of legacy 2.5V LDOs without resistor network. |
| Max Output Current | 600mA continuous; supports FPGA I/O banks and mid-power microcontroller peripherals without derating at TA ≤ 85°C. |
| Dropout Voltage | 300mV at 600mA (VOUT ≥ 2.5V); allows operation from 2.8V input in 2.5V rail systems with >300mV headroom margin. |
| Quiescent Current | 35μA typical at zero load; reduces battery drain in always-on sensor nodes and sleep-mode subsystems. |
| PSRR | 65dB at 1kHz; suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters feeding mixed-signal SoCs. |
| Enable Threshold | VIH = 1.4V min, VIL = 0.4V max; compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIO without level-shifting in portable designs. |
| Start-Up Time | 200μs typical; meets real-time wake-up timing for DSP cores exiting deep-sleep states. |
Pinout & Package
SOT25 (W package) - 5-pin surface-mount package with exposed thermal pad on bottom (not electrically connected). Pin 1 = IN, Pin 2 = GND, Pin 3 = EN, Pin 4 = NC, Pin 5 = OUT. Requires minimum 1μF ceramic input/output capacitors placed adjacent to respective pins.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN (Pin 1) | Voltage Input | Bypassed to GND via ≥1μF MLCC; must be routed with wide trace to minimize impedance and prevent instability under fast load transients. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for input/output currents and internal bias; connects to PCB ground plane under package for thermal conduction. |
| EN (Pin 3) | Enable Control | Active-high logic input; ties to VIN for permanent ON; requires clean signal source meeting VIH/VIL specs to avoid partial turn-on. |
| NC (Pin 4) | No Connection | Internally unconnected; must remain floating-no routing or soldering permitted to avoid parasitic coupling or ESD path disruption. |
| OUT (Pin 5) | Voltage Output | Regulated 2.5V supply node; bypassed to GND via ≥1μF MLCC placed <2mm from pin to ensure fast load transient recovery. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low Dropout Architecture | PMOS pass element enables 300mV dropout at 600mA, permitting use with 2.8V input for 2.5V rail-critical for single-cell Li-ion systems. |
| Ultra-Low IQ Operation | 35μA typical quiescent current ensures <10.5μC total charge loss per hour at 3V input-enabling multi-year battery life in IoT endpoints. |
| Fast Transient Response | Stabilizes within 200μs after EN assertion and maintains <20mV undershoot during 10mA→600mA load steps-essential for GSM baseband power sequencing. |
| Robust Protection Suite | Integrated current limit (1.4A), short-circuit clamp (240mA), and thermal shutdown (+145°C) eliminate need for external fault management circuitry. |
| Minimal External Components | Stable with 1μF ceramic output capacitor (ESR >15mΩ); eliminates bulk tantalum or electrolytic caps-reducing BOM count and board area by 30%. |
Applications
| Server VRM Auxiliary Rail | FPGA I/O Power |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-dropout linear regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700-2502E/TO | 300mA max output, 2μA IQ, SOT23-5 package; lacks EN pin and thermal shutdown. | Only suitable for sub-300mA loads with no fault protection requirements; cannot replace AP7365-25WG-7 in 600mA FPGA I/O applications. | Select only when ultra-low IQ dominates over current capability and protection-e.g., coin-cell-powered sensors. |
| Torex XC6209B25MR-G | 500mA max output, 15μA IQ, SOT25; includes EN but no current limit-relies on external fuse for overcurrent protection. | Requires additional discrete protection for short-circuit scenarios; not drop-in for server or medical applications demanding self-protected operation. | Choose if 500mA suffices and board space permits adding external current-limiting resistor or polyfuse. |
Compared with MCP1700-2502E/TO and XC6209B25MR-G, the AP7365-25WG-7 uniquely combines 600mA output, 35μA IQ, integrated EN, current limit, and thermal shutdown in SOT25-making it the sole option for compact, protected 2.5V power delivery in portable computing and medical edge devices.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for AP7365-25WG-7?
The absolute maximum input voltage is 6.5V, but the recommended operating range is 2.0V to 6.0V. Exceeding 6.0V risks accelerated parametric drift and reduced lifetime, especially at elevated temperatures. For 2.5V output, inputs above 5.5V increase power dissipation disproportionately without functional benefit.
Can AP7365-25WG-7 operate without an output capacitor?
No. A minimum 1μF ceramic output capacitor with ESR >15mΩ is required for stability. Omitting it causes oscillation and voltage overshoot during load transients, potentially damaging downstream logic. The capacitor must be placed within 2mm of OUT and GND pins using short, wide traces.
Is the NC pin on AP7365-25WG-7 electrically isolated?
Yes. Pin 4 (NC) is internally unconnected and must remain floating-no PCB trace, solder mask opening, or thermal pad connection is permitted. Routing to GND or other nets introduces parasitic capacitance that degrades PSRR and may trigger false thermal shutdown during high-frequency noise events.
How does thermal shutdown behave under sustained overload?
At junction temperature ≥+145°C, the output disables and remains off until temperature falls to ≈+130°C, then automatically resumes regulation. Under continuous overload, this causes on/off cycling-visible as output voltage pulsing at ~1–5Hz. This protects the die but indicates inadequate heatsinking or excessive (VIN–VOUT)×IOUT.
