Product details
Overview
AP7380-33W5-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a fixed-output 3.3V ultra-low dropout (ULDO) linear regulator IC designed for space-constrained, battery-powered systems. It delivers up to 150mA output current with 500mV dropout at 50mA, ±1% output voltage accuracy, and only 1.8µA ground current at full load - enabling extended runtime in portable instrumentation and USB-powered devices.
For engineers reviewing the AP7380-33W5-7 datasheet, AP7380-33W5-7 pinout, AP7380-33W5-7 application, or AP7380-33W5-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3.5–24V wide input range, thermal shutdown protection, compatibility with low-ESR ceramic capacitors, and SOT25 (W5) package footprint for high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The AP7380-33W5-7 integrates a precision voltage reference, error amplifier, resistor network for fixed 3.3V output, current-limit circuitry (150mA), and enable control logic. Its architecture supports stable regulation under fast load transients and wide temperature variation (-40°C to +125°C).
It operates as a single-stage positive linear regulator with no external feedback components required. The EN pin enables system-level power sequencing, while thermal shutdown (160°C trip, 20°C hysteresis) and internal current limiting provide robust fault protection without external circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±1% - ensures stable MCU core/logic rail without trimming or feedback resistors. |
| Input Voltage Range | 3.5V to 24V - supports direct connection to 12V/24V industrial buses or multi-cell Li-ion packs. |
| Dropout Voltage | 360mV (typ) @ 50mA - enables regulation down to VIN = 3.66V, critical for deep battery discharge operation. |
| Ground Current | 1.8µA (typ) @ IOUT = 150mA - minimizes quiescent power loss in always-on subsystems. |
| Line Regulation | 0.05%/V - maintains output stability across wide input swings, e.g., automotive cold-crank scenarios. |
| Load Regulation | 0.5% - holds output within ±16.5mV from 1mA to 150mA load, suitable for noise-sensitive analog sensors. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 160°C with 20°C hysteresis - prevents permanent damage during sustained overload or poor heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
AP7380-33W5-7 uses the SOT25 (W5) surface-mount package: 5-pin, 2.8mm × 2.9mm × 1.1mm body, matte tin-plated leads, moisture sensitivity level 1 (J-STD-020). Thermal resistance θJA = 193°C/W enables >100mA continuous operation on standard 2-layer FR4 without copper pour.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VIN | Main input supply pin - accepts 3.5–24V; requires ≥1µF ceramic input capacitor for stability. |
| 2 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - must be connected to low-impedance PCB ground plane for noise immunity. |
| 3 | VOUT | Regulated 3.3V output - drives loads up to 150mA; requires ≥1µF ceramic output capacitor for transient response. |
| 4 | NC | No connect - internally unconnected; left floating per datasheet for fixed-output version. |
| 5 | EN | Active-high enable input - pulls low (<0.4V) to disable regulator and reduce standby current to 0.01µA. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide input voltage range | Supports 3.5–24V inputs - eliminates need for pre-regulation stages in 12V/24V industrial or automotive auxiliary rails. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 1.8µA ground current at full load - extends battery life in IoT edge nodes operating intermittently for years. |
| Low-ESR capacitor compatibility | Stable with ≥1µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitors - reduces BOM cost and board area vs. tantalum or electrolytic solutions. |
| Integrated thermal protection | Auto-recovery shutdown at 160°C - avoids external thermal monitoring circuitry in compact enclosures. |
| High output accuracy | ±1% over line/load/temperature - meets tight tolerance requirements for ADC references and RF bias rails. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ULDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700-3302E/TO | Lower max input (6V), 250mA output, higher dropout (600mV @ 250mA) | Limited to single-cell Li-ion or 5V USB-only systems; unsuitable for 12V/24V industrial inputs | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs input voltage range needs and 250mA peak current is required |
| TPS7A2033PDBVR | Higher IQ (6.5µA), lower dropout (175mV @ 300mA), but max input only 6.5V | Optimized for ultra-low-noise RF/ADC supplies in battery-only designs; lacks 24V capability | Prefer for noise-critical analog rails where 6.5V input ceiling is acceptable |
Compared with MCP1700-3302E/TO and TPS7A2033PDBVR, AP7380-33W5-7 uniquely balances 24V input tolerance, sub-1µA standby current, and SOT25 footprint - making it the only choice for 12V/24V-powered portable instruments requiring long battery life and minimal board area.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for AP7380-33W5-7 to regulate 3.3V output?
The absolute minimum input voltage is 3.5V per datasheet specifications. At 50mA load, the typical dropout is 360mV, so stable regulation begins at VIN ≥ 3.66V. Below 3.5V, the device enters dropout mode and output voltage drops linearly with input.
Can AP7380-33W5-7 be used with ceramic output capacitors smaller than 1µF?
No - the datasheet specifies ≥1.0µF ceramic capacitor (X5R/X7R) on VOUT for stability and transient response. Using smaller values risks oscillation or excessive output voltage deviation during load steps, as confirmed by load transient test waveforms in DS39196 Rev. 4-2.
Does AP7380-33W5-7 require an input capacitor, and what value is recommended?
Yes - a minimum 1.0µF ceramic capacitor is required on VIN to suppress high-frequency noise and prevent instability. The datasheet shows performance degradation in line regulation and PSRR when input capacitance falls below this value, especially above 10MHz switching noise.
Is AP7380-33W5-7 qualified for automotive applications per AEC-Q100?
No - the AP7380 series is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Diodes explicitly states that automotive-grade versions require separate change control and PPAP capability; AP7380-33W5-7 is rated for industrial temperature range (-40°C to +125°C) but lacks automotive qualification documentation or IATF 16949-controlled process validation for automotive use.
