Product details
Overview
AP7383-41WW-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a fixed-output 4.15V 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 1.8–3.0µA ground current across load. It operates from 3.5V to 30V input and integrates thermal shutdown, current limiting, and enable control - deployed in portable instrumentation and USB-powered peripherals.
For engineers reviewing the AP7383-41WW-7 datasheet, AP7383-41WW-7 pinout, AP7383-41WW-7 application, or AP7383-41WW-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4.15V fixed output, SOT25 (WW) package footprint, 30V max input rating, thermal shutdown threshold of +160°C, and compatibility with low-ESR ceramic capacitors without external compensation.
Technical Context
The AP7383-41WW-7 implements a precision bandgap reference and error amplifier driving a PMOS pass transistor, enabling low dropout operation independent of output voltage. Its internal current-limit circuit activates at 150mA typical, and the EN pin provides logic-level on/off control with 1µA input current and 2.0V/0.4V high/low thresholds.
Thermal protection uses a junction-sensing circuit with +160°C trip point and +20°C hysteresis, while line regulation holds within ±0.05%/V and load regulation within ±0.5% across 1–150mA. Output voltage temperature coefficient is ±100ppm/°C over –40°C to +125°C operating junction range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 4.15V ±1% - ensures stable supply for 4.2V Li-ion–biased analog circuits or 3.3V/5V mixed-rail I/O interfaces. |
| Input Voltage Range | 3.5V to 30V - supports wide-input industrial power rails, automotive battery transients, and multi-cell battery stacks. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA - sufficient for powering microcontroller cores, sensors, or RF front-end biasing in portable devices. |
| Dropout Voltage | 360–580mV @ 50mA - enables regulation down to VIN = 4.51V, critical for extending battery runtime in 4.2V nominal systems. |
| Ground Current | 1.8–3.0µA @ full load - minimizes quiescent drain in always-on monitoring circuits and sleep-mode subsystems. |
| Thermal Shutdown | +160°C trip with +20°C hysteresis - prevents latch-up during sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
| Enable Threshold | EN "High" ≥2.0V, "Low" ≤0.4V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V/5V GPIO without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
SOT25 (WW) package: 5-pin surface-mount, 2.8mm × 2.9mm body, 0.95mm height, matte tin-plated leads, moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VIN | Main input supply connection; accepts up to 30V DC with transient robustness for unregulated sources. |
| 2 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference; must be low-impedance to minimize noise coupling into error amplifier. |
| 3 | VOUT | Regulated 4.15V output; requires 1µF ceramic capacitor placed <1mm from pin for stability. |
| 4 | NC | No internal connection; recommended tied to GND for enhanced thermal conduction via PCB copper pour. |
| 5 | EN | Active-high enable input; pulls device into ultra-low standby mode (<0.01µA) when driven low. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide Input Range (3.5–30V) | Eliminates need for pre-regulation stages in 12V/24V industrial or automotive auxiliary supplies. |
| Ultra-Low Quiescent Current (1.8–3.0µA) | Extends battery life in IoT edge nodes where sleep current dominates total energy budget. |
| Ceramic Capacitor Compatible | Enables use of small, high-reliability 0402/0603 MLCCs without ESR requirements or external compensation. |
| Integrated Thermal Shutdown | Provides autonomous fault recovery without external thermal sensors or system-level watchdog intervention. |
| ±1% Output Accuracy | Meets tight tolerance requirements for ADC references, sensor excitation, and precision analog signal chains. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fixed-output ULDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1703T-4102E/MB | 4.1V output (0.15V lower), 250mV dropout @ 250mA, 2.5µA IQ, no EN pin | Lacks enable control and has tighter input range (2.7–16V); unsuitable for 24V industrial inputs or sequenced power-down | Select only if EN functionality is unnecessary and input never exceeds 16V. |
| TPS7A2041PDBVR | 4.1V output, 130mV dropout @ 300mA, 6.5µA IQ, active-low EN, 2.5–6.0V input range | Narrower input range excludes direct replacement in 12V/24V systems; higher IQ increases standby drain | Prefer only for low-dropout priority in sub-6V battery designs where 6.5µA IQ is acceptable. |
Compared with MCP1703T-4102E/MB and TPS7A2041PDBVR, the AP7383-41WW-7 uniquely combines 30V input tolerance, 4.15V precision output, enable control, and sub-3µA quiescent current - making it optimal for wide-input, low-power, and sequenced power architectures.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for regulation at 4.15V output?
The AP7383-41WW-7 requires VIN ≥ VOUT + VDROP. At 50mA load, dropout is 360–580mV, so minimum VIN is 4.51–4.73V. The datasheet specifies 3.5V absolute minimum, but regulation is only guaranteed above VOUT + dropout across temperature and load.
Can the AP7383-41WW-7 operate without an output capacitor?
No. A minimum 1µF ceramic capacitor is mandatory at VOUT for stability and transient response. Omitting it causes oscillation and potential damage. The device is optimized for low-ESR ceramics and does not require series resistance or tantalum alternatives.
Is the NC pin on the SOT25 (WW) package required to be grounded?
The NC pin (Pin 4) has no internal connection but is thermally tied to the die paddle. Diodes recommends connecting it to GND via PCB copper pour to improve thermal dissipation and reduce junction temperature by up to 15°C under full load.
Does the AP7383-41WW-7 support reverse polarity or reverse current protection?
No. The AP7383-41WW-7 lacks integrated reverse-voltage or reverse-current blocking. If input can be reversed or back-driven, external protection (e.g., series Schottky diode or ideal diode controller) must be added per system safety requirements.
