Product details
Overview
AP7387-33FDC-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a wide-input (5–60 V), 3.3 V fixed-output, 150 mA ultra-low-dropout linear regulator in U-DFN2020-6 (Type C) package. It delivers ±2% output voltage accuracy, 700 mV dropout at 100 mA, and 2 µA quiescent current-enabling long-life operation in battery-powered smoke detectors and EV battery management systems.
For engineers reviewing the AP7387-33FDC-7 datasheet, AP7387-33FDC-7 pinout, AP7387-33FDC-7 application, or AP7387-33FDC-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range up to 60 V, thermal shutdown at +150 °C, PSRR of 70 dB @ 1 kHz, and compatibility with 10 µF ceramic output capacitance for transient stability.
Technical Context
The AP7387-33FDC-7 integrates a precision voltage reference, error amplifier, current-limit circuit, thermal shutdown, and short-circuit protection in a single monolithic IC. Its architecture supports fast line/load transient response due to high-loop-gain error amplification and low-output-impedance regulation.
It operates across –40 °C to +125 °C junction temperature with internal thermal hysteresis of +30 °C and features an exposed pad thermally connected to GND. The U-DFN2020-6 (Type C) package provides θJA = 48 °C/W and θJC = 15.5 °C/W for efficient power dissipation under sustained 150 mA loads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 5 V to 60 V - enables direct connection to automotive 12/24/48 V rails or industrial DC bus without pre-regulation |
| Output Voltage | 3.3 V ±2% - meets I/O voltage requirements of modern microcontrollers and sensors |
| Max Output Current | 150 mA - sufficient for powering MCU cores, RF transceivers, or sensor signal chains |
| Dropout Voltage | 700 mV @ 100 mA (typ.) - allows stable 3.3 V output even when input drops to 4.0 V |
| Quiescent Current | 2 µA (typ.) - extends battery life in always-on monitoring applications like smoke detectors |
| PSRR | 70 dB @ 1 kHz - suppresses ripple from noisy DC-DC converters or alternator sources |
| Thermal Shutdown | +150 °C with +30 °C hysteresis - prevents latch-up during overloads while enabling automatic recovery |
Pinout & Package
AP7387-33FDC-7 uses the U-DFN2020-6 (Type C) package (2.0 mm × 2.0 mm × 0.6 mm), featuring an exposed thermal pad (EP) internally connected to GND. PCB layout requires large copper area under EP tied to GND for optimal thermal performance (θJA = 48 °C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VIN | Main input supply pin - accepts 5–60 V; requires 1 µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin |
| 2, 5 | GND | Ground reference and return path - both pins must be connected to low-impedance ground plane |
| 3, 4 | NC | No-connect terminals - recommended to tie to GND for enhanced thermal conduction and EMI reduction |
| 6 | VOUT | Regulated 3.3 V output - requires 10 µF X7R/X5R ceramic capacitor placed within 2 mm of pin |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Internally connected to GND - must be soldered to ≥100 mm² copper pour for thermal dissipation and noise immunity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide Input Range (5–60 V) | Eliminates need for external buck pre-regulator in 24/48 V industrial or EV battery systems |
| Ultra-Low IQ (2 µA) | Enables >10-year battery life in low-duty-cycle IoT sensors and safety devices |
| High PSRR (70 dB @ 1 kHz) | Maintains clean 3.3 V rail despite switching noise from adjacent DC-DC converters |
| Fast Transient Response | Stabilizes within <200 µs after 10–100 mA load steps - critical for burst-mode MCU operation |
| Integrated Protections | Current limit (250 mA), thermal shutdown (+150 °C), and short-circuit protection reduce external component count |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-low-IQ, wide-input LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS7B8733QKVURQ1 | Automotive AEC-Q100 Grade 1; 1.3 µA IQ; 40 V max input; 3.3 V ±1%; 150 mA | Qualified for automotive under-hood use; lacks 60 V input capability and thermal hysteresis spec | Select for automotive BMS modules requiring AEC-Q100 compliance; not suitable for 48 V+ industrial inputs |
| MCP1703T-3302E/MB | 6 V max input; 2.5 µA IQ; 3.3 V ±1%; 250 mA; SOT23-5 package | Limited to low-voltage systems; higher output current but no overvoltage or thermal protection | Use only in ≤6 V battery-powered consumer devices where cost and size outweigh protection needs |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for AP7387-33FDC-7 to regulate 3.3 V output?
The AP7387-33FDC-7 requires VIN ≥ VOUT + VDROP. With typical dropout of 700 mV at 100 mA, the minimum functional input is 4.0 V. At full 150 mA load, dropout rises to 1100 mV, requiring ≥4.4 V input for regulation. Below these thresholds, output voltage collapses linearly with input.
Can AP7387-33FDC-7 operate without an output capacitor?
No. An output capacitor is mandatory for stability. The datasheet specifies a minimum 10 µF X7R/X5R ceramic capacitor placed within 2 mm of VOUT and GND pins. Omitting it causes oscillation, excessive noise, and potential thermal runaway under load.
Is the exposed pad (EP) on AP7387-33FDC-7 electrically isolated?
No. The exposed pad is internally connected to GND. It must be soldered to a PCB copper area tied to the system ground plane. Failure to connect EP to GND degrades thermal performance (θJA increases from 48 to >100 °C/W) and reduces PSRR by up to 20 dB.
Does AP7387-33FDC-7 support adjustable output voltage via external resistors?
No. AP7387-33FDC-7 is a fixed 3.3 V output device. The "33" in the part number denotes the factory-trimmed output voltage. Adjustable versions are not offered in this family; alternative regulators like AP7361 series would be required for programmable outputs.
