Product details
Overview
AP7365-33ERG-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a fixed-output 3.3V, 600mA low-dropout linear regulator in SOT223-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 power and battery-powered portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the AP7365-33ERG-13 datasheet, AP7365-33ERG-13 pinout, AP7365-33ERG-13 application, or AP7365-33ERG-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 600mA, PSRR at 1kHz, start-up time, thermal resistance (θJA = 142°C/W), and compatibility with 1μF ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The AP7365-33ERG-13 implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low quiescent current (35μA typ.) while maintaining fast transient response and stability with minimal 1μF ceramic output capacitance. Its internal 0.8V bandgap reference and error amplifier regulate output precisely across -40°C to +85°C ambient.
Enable logic operates with VIH ≥ 1.4V and VIL ≤ 0.4V, supporting direct microcontroller GPIO control. Protection circuitry includes foldback current limiting (1.4A typ.), short-circuit clamping (240mA), and thermal shutdown at +145°C with +15°C hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±2% over -40°C to +85°C and full load range-ensures reliable core/I/O rail compliance for 3.3V logic systems. |
| Max Output Current | 600mA continuous-supports FPGA I/O banks, microcontroller peripherals, and sensor interfaces without external current boosting. |
| Dropout Voltage | 300mV at 600mA (VOUT ≥ 2.5V)-enables operation down to 3.6V input, critical for single-cell Li-ion or 4.0V USB-powered systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 35μA typical-minimizes standby power loss in always-on subsystems like real-time clocks or wake-on-event circuits. |
| PSRR | 65dB at 1kHz-suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters, preserving signal integrity in analog and RF sections. |
| Start-Up Time | 200μs-allows rapid power sequencing in multi-rail systems and low-latency wake-up from deep sleep modes. |
| Thermal Resistance θJA | 142°C/W (SOT223-ER on FR-4, 1oz Cu)-defines maximum power dissipation (e.g., 0.42W at TA = 85°C) before thermal shutdown triggers. |
Pinout & Package
SOT223-ER package with exposed thermal pad (pin 3 = GND/TAB); thermally enhanced for high-current LDO operation in space-constrained industrial and portable PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN (Pin 1) | Input voltage supply | Accepts 2V–6V; requires ≥1μF ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin to suppress input ripple and ensure stability. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Ground reference | Primary ground return path; connects to thermal pad (pin 3) for optimal heat dissipation and low-noise reference. |
| OUT (Pin 3 / TAB) | Regulated output | Delivers fixed 3.3V; thermal pad must be soldered to large copper pour for θJA = 142°C/W performance. |
| EN (Pin ?) | Enable control input | Active-high logic interface (VIH ≥ 1.4V); tied to IN if always-on operation required; enables power sequencing with MCU GPIO. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-IQ regulation | 35μA typical quiescent current preserves battery life in always-on IoT sensors and wearables. |
| Fast transient response | Stable under 10mA ↔ 600mA load steps with <20mV undershoot/overshoot-critical for GSM/DSP burst-mode loads. |
| 1μF ceramic stability | No minimum ESR requirement; eliminates need for bulky tantalum or electrolytic capacitors, reducing BOM cost and footprint. |
| Integrated protection | Current limit (1.4A), short-circuit clamp (240mA), and thermal shutdown (+145°C) prevent field failures without external components. |
| Wide input range | 2V–6V operation supports diverse sources: Li-ion (2.7–4.2V), USB (4.75–5.25V), and dual-cell alkaline (2.4–3.2V). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP7361-33W5G-7 | SOT25 package, higher θJA (169°C/W), same 3.3V/600mA spec but lower max input (5.5V vs. 6V). | Limited to lower-power applications due to reduced thermal capability; unsuitable for sustained 600mA in enclosed enclosures. | Select only when board space constraints mandate SOT25 and thermal load remains below 300mA. |
| MCP1703T-3302E/MB | Microchip device; 250mV dropout at 250mA, 1.8μA IQ, but rated only to 250mA output. | Optimized for micropower sensor nodes-not viable for FPGA or PLC I/O loads requiring >300mA. | Prefer for battery lifetime-critical sub-250mA rails; avoid where peak current exceeds 250mA. |
Compared with AP7361-33W5G-7, the AP7365-33ERG-13 delivers superior thermal performance in SOT223 for sustained 600mA loads; versus MCP1703T-3302E/MB, it trades ultra-low IQ for 2.4× higher current capacity and robust protection-making it the sole fit for industrial I/O and FPGA power.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for stable 3.3V output at 600mA?
The AP7365-33ERG-13 requires VIN ≥ 3.6V to maintain regulated 3.3V output at 600mA, based on its 300mV dropout specification. Below 3.6V, output voltage drops linearly with input; operation below 2.0V is outside absolute maximum ratings and not functional.
Can the EN pin be left floating, or must it be actively driven?
The EN pin must not be left floating-it has no internal pull-up/down. For always-on operation, tie EN directly to IN. For controlled enable/disable, drive with a logic signal meeting VIH ≥ 1.4V and VIL ≤ 0.4V; leakage is <1μA, so standard GPIO suffices.
Is a minimum load required for output stability?
No minimum load is required. The AP7365-33ERG-13 remains stable and regulated from zero load to 600mA, verified per datasheet Section 8.3 ("No Load Stability"). This eliminates need for dummy loads in standby or low-power modes.
What PCB layout practices maximize thermal performance in SOT223-ER?
Maximize thermal performance by soldering the exposed thermal pad (pin 3/TAB) to a ≥100mm² copper pour with ≥4 thermal vias (0.3mm diameter) connecting to inner/ground planes. Keep IN and OUT traces wide (>0.5mm) and place 1μF ceramic capacitors within 2mm of respective pins.
