Product details
Overview
AP7375Q-30SP-13 from Diodes Incorporated is an automotive-grade 3.0V fixed-output, 300mA ultra-low-dropout linear regulator with 45V max input voltage, 2.1µA quiescent current, and AEC-Q100 qualification. It features EN pin rated to 45V, ±2% output accuracy, 85dB PSRR at 1kHz, and integrated short-circuit/thermal shutdown protection. Designed for power-sensitive automotive subsystems including CAN/LIN transceivers and body control modules.
For engineers reviewing the AP7375Q-30SP-13 datasheet, AP7375Q-30SP-13 pinout, AP7375Q-30SP-13 application, or AP7375Q-30SP-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include wide VIN (3–45V), low IQ (2.1µA typ), fast transient response without overshoot, thermal robustness in SO-8EP package, and automotive PPAP capability.
Technical Context
The AP7375Q-30SP-13 employs a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout (35mV @ 10mA, 350mV @ 100mA) and high PSRR (85dB @ 1kHz). Its enable circuit accepts up to 45V, eliminating level-shifting needs in 12V/24V/42V automotive systems.
Internal protection includes current limiting (500mA typ), thermal shutdown at +150°C with +10°C hysteresis, and ESD ratings of ±1.5kV CDM / 3kV HBM. The SO-8EP package provides θJA = 47.7°C/W and exposed pad for enhanced thermal dissipation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.0V ±2% - ensures stable MCU core/logic rail without external feedback. |
| Max Input Voltage | 45V - supports direct connection to automotive battery rails including load-dump transients. |
| Quiescent Current | 2.1µA typ - enables always-on functionality in low-power sleep modes (e.g., BCM wake-up circuits). |
| Dropout Voltage | 350mV @ 100mA - maintains regulation down to VIN = 3.35V, critical for cold-crank operation. |
| PSRR | 85dB @ 1kHz - suppresses alternator ripple and switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters. |
| Thermal Shutdown | +150°C with +10°C hysteresis - prevents latch-up during sustained overload or poor PCB heatsinking. |
| EN Pin Voltage Range | 0.4V (disable) to 45V (enable) - allows direct microcontroller GPIO or high-side switch control without external resistors. |
Pinout & Package
AP7375Q-30SP-13 is packaged in SO-8EP (exposed pad), offering superior thermal performance (θJA = 47.7°C/W) versus SOT89 or SOT25. The exposed pad must be connected to GND for optimal thermal dissipation and EMI reduction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VIN | Main input supply pin - accepts 3V to 45V; requires 1µF ceramic decoupling close to pin. |
| 2, 3, 4, 6 | GND | Ground return paths - pins 2/3/4 are signal GND; pin 6 is dedicated GND; all must connect to low-impedance ground plane. |
| 5 | EN | Enable control - logic-high (>1V) enables output; logic-low (<0.4V) disables output and reduces IQ to <1µA. |
| 7 | VOUT | Regulated 3.0V output - requires 10µF ceramic capacitor (X7R/X5R) placed adjacent to pin for stability and transient response. |
| 8 | NC | No internal connection - recommended to tie to GND for improved thermal conduction via PCB copper. |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Thermal & electrical ground - must be soldered to large GND copper area; not a functional signal pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide VIN range (3–45V) | Eliminates need for pre-regulator in 12V/24V/42V automotive architectures, reducing BOM count and board space. |
| 2.1µA quiescent current | Enables >10-year battery life in always-on vehicle modules (e.g., door handle sensors, telematics backup power). |
| No output overshoot at startup/short-circuit recovery | Prevents voltage spikes that could damage downstream logic or cause MCU brown-out resets in safety-critical ECUs. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (−40°C to +125°C) | Validated for under-hood and cabin applications requiring full automotive temperature compliance and PPAP documentation. |
| SO-8EP thermal resistance (θJA = 47.7°C/W) | Supports 300mA continuous output at TA = +105°C with minimal heatsinking - suitable for compact head unit designs. |
Applications
| Powering MCUs and CAN/LIN Transceivers | Automotive Head Units |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar automotive LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV73330PDBVR | Lower VIN max (5.5V), higher IQ (45µA), no AEC-Q100 rating, SOT-23-5 package. | Limited to 12V systems only; unsuitable for load-dump or cold-crank conditions; lacks automotive qualification. | Select only for non-automotive industrial applications where input voltage never exceeds 5.5V and qualification is not required. |
| TPS7B8233QDGNRQ1 | Same 45V VIN, but lower IOUT (150mA), higher dropout (400mV @ 100mA), AEC-Q100 Grade 0 (−40°C to +150°C). | Insufficient current for 300mA MCU + transceiver loads; tighter thermal spec enables under-hood placement but sacrifices output capability. | Choose when junction temperature may exceed +125°C and 150mA output suffices - e.g., sensor nodes with minimal processing load. |
Compared with TLV73330PDBVR and TPS7B8233QDGNRQ1, AP7375Q-30SP-13 uniquely balances 45V input tolerance, 300mA output, 2.1µA IQ, and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 - making it the only option qualified for mainstream automotive body/head unit applications requiring full cold-crank support and long-term reliability.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for AP7375Q-30SP-13 to regulate 3.0V output?
The device requires VIN ≥ VOUT + VDROP(MAX). At 100mA load, VDROP is 580mV (max), so minimum VIN is 3.58V. At light loads (1mA), dropout drops to ~35mV, allowing regulation from 3.035V. However, per datasheet Note 6, full internal operation begins only when VIN ≥ VOUT + VDROP(MAX), which is 3.0V + 1.4V = 4.4V at 300mA.
Can the EN pin be driven directly by a 3.3V microcontroller GPIO without external components?
Yes. The EN pin has a logic-low threshold of ≤0.4V and logic-high threshold of ≥1V. A 3.3V GPIO output exceeds the 1V minimum high-level requirement and remains well below the 45V absolute maximum, enabling direct interface without level shifters or resistive dividers.
How does the SO-8EP package improve thermal performance compared to SOT25?
SO-8EP achieves θJA = 47.7°C/W due to its exposed pad and larger copper footprint, while SOT25 has θJA = 135.5°C/W. This 65% reduction in thermal resistance allows AP7375Q-30SP-13 to deliver full 300mA at +105°C ambient, whereas SOT25 would require derating to ~100mA under identical conditions.
Is the 10µF output capacitor mandatory, or can smaller values be used?
The datasheet specifies 10µF as the recommended minimum for stability and transient response. Using less than 10µF risks oscillation or excessive undershoot/overshoot during load steps. Ceramic X7R/X5R capacitors are required; tantalum or aluminum electrolytics are not recommended due to ESR and aging effects.
