Product details
Overview
AP7365-30ERG-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a fixed-output 3.0V, 600mA low-dropout linear regulator in SOT223-3 (ER) package with 35μA quiescent current, 300mV dropout at full load, and integrated enable control, thermal shutdown, and current limiting-designed for FPGA I/O rail and battery-powered portable electronics requiring stable low-noise voltage regulation.
For engineers reviewing the AP7365-30ERG-13 datasheet, AP7365-30ERG-13 pinout, AP7365-30ERG-13 application, or AP7365-30ERG-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage under 600mA load, PSRR performance at 1kHz, EN logic thresholds, thermal resistance in SOT223-ER package, and compatibility with 1μF ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The AP7365-30ERG-13 implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling low dropout (300mV @ 600mA, VOUT ≥ 2.5V) and fast transient response without external compensation. Its bandgap reference and error amplifier deliver ±2% output accuracy across –40°C to +85°C ambient.
Enable functionality uses active-high logic with VIH ≥ 1.4V and VIL ≤ 0.4V, supporting direct microcontroller GPIO control. Built-in protection includes thermal shutdown at +145°C with +15°C hysteresis and current limit clamping at 1.4A (short-circuit at 240mA).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.0V ±2% over –40°C to +85°C, suitable for powering 3.3V-tolerant I/O rails with margin. |
| Max Output Current | 600mA continuous, enabling single-rail supply for mid-power FPGA I/O banks or DSP peripherals. |
| Dropout Voltage | 300mV at 600mA (VOUT ≥ 2.5V), allowing operation from 3.3V input down to 3.0V output with headroom. |
| Quiescent Current | 35μA typical, minimizing standby power loss in always-on subsystems like real-time clocks or sensor interfaces. |
| PSRR | 65dB at 1kHz, suppressing switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters feeding the LDO input. |
| Start-Up Time | 200μs typical, enabling rapid wake-up from deep-sleep modes in portable devices. |
| Thermal Resistance θJA | 142°C/W (SOT223-ER on FR-4, 1oz Cu), defining maximum power dissipation before thermal shutdown. |
Pinout & Package
SOT223-3 (ER package) with exposed thermal pad (OUT tab); pin 1 = OUT, pin 2 = GND, pin 3 = IN. The thermal pad must be soldered to a PCB copper pour for thermal management.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OUT (Pin 1 / Tab) | Regulated output voltage node | Exposed metal tab serves as primary current path and thermal conduction surface; requires minimum 1μF ceramic capacitor to GND. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Reference ground for internal circuitry | Low-impedance return path for error amplifier, bandgap, and protection circuits; must connect directly to power plane. |
| IN (Pin 3) | Unregulated input voltage supply | Accepts 2V–6V input; requires ≥1μF ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin to suppress high-frequency noise. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low IQ | 35μA enables >1-year battery life in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors with 10μA average system current. |
| Fast transient response | Stable 200mV undershoot/overshoot during 10mA↔600mA load steps, critical for GSM/TDMA baseband power integrity. |
| 1μF ceramic stability | Eliminates need for large tantalum or electrolytic capacitors, reducing board area and cost in space-constrained designs. |
| Integrated EN control | Active-high enable allows precise sequencing with MCU GPIO, supporting multi-rail power-up/down coordination. |
| Robust fault protection | Combined current limit (1.4A), short-circuit clamp (240mA), and thermal shutdown (+145°C) prevent damage during abnormal conditions. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fixed-output LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1703T-3002E/MB | Higher IQ (2.5μA vs 35μA), lower max current (250mA), same 3.0V fixed output and SOT23-5 package. | Optimized for ultra-low-power microcontroller cores-not suitable for 600mA FPGA I/O loads. | Select only when load current ≤250mA and IQ <5μA is mandatory; not drop-in for AP7365-30ERG-13's 600mA capability. |
| TPS7A2030PDBVR | Lower dropout (175mV @ 300mA), higher PSRR (75dB @ 1kHz), but rated only to 300mA and uses 5-pin SOT23. | Better noise rejection and efficiency at light loads, but insufficient current for high-speed I/O banks. | Prefer for noise-sensitive analog rails with <300mA demand; avoid where 600mA peak current or SOT223 thermal mass is required. |
Compared with MCP1703T-3002E/MB and TPS7A2030PDBVR, the AP7365-30ERG-13 uniquely balances 600mA delivery, 35μA IQ, and SOT223 thermal robustness-making it the only viable choice for compact, battery-operated systems needing both high current and long runtime.

FAQ
What is the recommended input capacitor for AP7365-30ERG-13?
A minimum 1μF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor placed between IN and GND is required for stability and noise suppression. The datasheet confirms no upper capacitance limit, and larger values improve line transient response. Layout best practice mandates placing this capacitor within 2mm of the IN and GND pins using wide copper traces to minimize inductance.
Can AP7365-30ERG-13 operate without an output capacitor?
No. An output capacitor is mandatory for stability and transient performance. The device is specified to be stable only with ≥1μF ceramic output capacitance having ESR >15mΩ. Omitting the output capacitor causes oscillation and unregulated output, as confirmed by the "Output Capacitor" section in DS32260 Rev. 11–3, page 8.
Does AP7365-30ERG-13 require a minimum load current?
No minimum load is required. The AP7365-30ERG-13 remains stable and regulated from zero load up to 600mA, as explicitly stated in the "No Load Stability" subsection (page 9). This eliminates the need for dummy loads in standby or sleep modes.
How does thermal shutdown behave during sustained overload?
When junction temperature reaches +145°C, the output disables; recovery occurs at +130°C due to +15°C hysteresis. Under continuous overload, this causes thermal cycling-on/off oscillation-limiting average power dissipation. The SOT223-ER package's θJA of 142°C/W means >420mW dissipation in still air will trigger cycling at +85°C ambient.
