Product details
Overview
AP7387Q-33FDCW-7 from Diodes Incorporated is an AEC-Q100 qualified automotive-grade ultra-low-dropout linear regulator delivering 3.3V at up to 150mA from a 5–60V input range. It features 2μA quiescent current, ±2% output voltage accuracy, 70dB PSRR at 1kHz, and thermal/short-circuit protection - designed for powering MCUs and CAN/LIN transceivers in harsh automotive environments.
For engineers reviewing the AP7387Q-33FDCW-7 datasheet, AP7387Q-33FDCW-7 pinout, AP7387Q-33FDCW-7 application, or AP7387Q-33FDCW-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include wide-input capability (60V max), low-IQ operation under battery-dormant conditions, fast load transient response (<200µs recovery), and U-DFN2020-6 package thermal performance (θJA = 47.9°C/W).
Technical Context
The AP7387Q-33FDCW-7 implements a high-voltage PMOS pass transistor architecture with internal voltage reference, error amplifier, and resistor network for fixed 3.3V output. Its design enables stable regulation across extreme input transients (e.g., load dump up to 60V) while maintaining sub-1.1V dropout at full 150mA load.
Protection logic integrates independent current-limiting (250mA typ.), thermal shutdown (150°C trip with 30°C hysteresis), and short-circuit foldback. The U-DFN2020-6 (SWP) package uses an exposed pad optimized for PCB copper area connection to GND - not as a functional terminal - enabling θJC = 15.5°C/W junction-to-case conduction.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 5V to 60V - supports automotive 12V/24V/48V systems and load-dump immunity without external clamping. |
| Output Voltage | 3.3V ±2% - tight tolerance ensures reliable MCU core and CAN transceiver VCC supply under temperature and line variation. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA - sufficient for low-power microcontrollers, LIN transceivers, and sensor signal conditioning circuits. |
| Dropout Voltage | 700mV @100mA (typ.) - enables regulation down to VIN = 4.0V, critical for cold-crank operation in 12V vehicles. |
| Quiescent Current | 2μA (typ.) - minimizes battery drain during vehicle sleep mode (e.g., <10μA system standby budgets). |
| PSRR | 70dB @1kHz - suppresses alternator ripple and switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C with 30°C hysteresis - prevents permanent damage during sustained overload or poor PCB heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
AP7387Q-33FDCW-7 is housed in a 2.0mm × 2.0mm U-DFN2020-6 (SWP) package with wettable flank leads and an exposed thermal pad (EP). The package is RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (−40°C to +125°C TA).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VOUT | Regulated 3.3V output - connect directly to load with low-ESR ceramic capacitor (≥10µF) placed within 2mm. |
| 2 | GND | Power ground reference - tie to main PCB ground plane; low-impedance path essential for stability and PSRR. |
| 3 | VIN | High-voltage input (5–60V) - requires local 1µF X7R ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| 4 | NC | No internal connection - recommended to connect to GND for enhanced thermal dissipation via PCB copper. |
| 5 | NC | No internal connection - recommended to connect to GND for enhanced thermal dissipation via PCB copper. |
| 6 | GND | Secondary ground terminal - improves current sharing and reduces ground loop impedance in high-noise environments. |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Thermal interface only - must be soldered to ≥25mm² GND copper area; not electrically functional as GND node. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide input range (5–60V) | Eliminates need for pre-regulator stages in 24V commercial vehicle and 48V mild-hybrid architectures. |
| 2μA quiescent current | Enables >10-year battery life in always-on telematics modules operating on 12V lead-acid standby power. |
| 70dB PSRR @1kHz | Reduces conducted EMI from 100–200kHz DC/DC converters feeding shared 12V rail, improving ADC SNR. |
| Fast transient response (<200µs) | Maintains MCU supply integrity during sudden CAN bus arbitration pulses or LIN wake-up events. |
| Integrated thermal shutdown | Auto-recovery behavior (30°C hysteresis) avoids latch-off failures during intermittent overloads in body control units. |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) | EV Battery Management System (BMS) Sensor Interface |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Powering 3.3V microcontroller, LIN transceiver, and door-lock actuator drivers in ambient temperatures from −40°C to +105°C. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary LDO supplying regulated VCC to safety-critical control logic with AEC-Q100 qualification and PPAP documentation support. Use Value: 60V input rating withstands ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a load dump; 2μA IQ meets OEM sleep-mode leakage budgets. |
Use Scenario: Biasing isolated current-sense amplifiers and thermistor interfaces in high-voltage battery packs (up to 900V DC bus). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary-side LDO providing clean 3.3V for analog front-end ICs located near HV cells, galvanically isolated via optocouplers or capacitive isolators. Use Value: 70dB PSRR rejects switching noise from nearby isolated flyback controllers; ±2% accuracy ensures precise temperature and voltage measurement. |
| Automotive Head Unit Core Supply | Transmission Control Unit (TCU) Communication Interface |
|
Use Scenario: Delivering stable 3.3V to ARM Cortex-M7 MCU, audio codec, and display controller in infotainment head units. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-noise post-regulator after buck converter, reducing ripple-induced audio band distortion and display flicker. Use Value: Fast line/load transient response (<200µs) prevents brownout resets during simultaneous LCD backlight and audio amplifier activation. |
Use Scenario: Powering CAN FD transceivers and watchdog timers in transmission control units exposed to engine bay vibration and thermal cycling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dedicated LDO for communication PHY layer, decoupled from noisy powertrain MCU supply rails. Use Value: Thermal shutdown with auto-recovery maintains CAN bus availability during temporary overheating (e.g., parking in direct sun); U-DFN2020-6 footprint saves space in dense TCU PCB layouts. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-low-dropout automotive LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLE42754G | 5V fixed output; higher IQ (15μA typ.); 40V max input; TO-252 package (θJA = 60°C/W) | Limited to 5V systems; less suitable for 3.3V MCU cores; larger thermal footprint required. | Select when 5V logic compatibility is mandatory and board space allows TO-252 mounting. |
| NCP163AMX330TBG | 3.3V output; 12V max input; 250mA output; SOT-23 package; no automotive qualification | Cannot withstand automotive load dump; lacks AEC-Q100 validation and PPAP support. | Acceptable only for non-automotive industrial prototypes where cost outweighs qualification requirements. |
Compared with TLE42754G and NCP163AMX330TBG, AP7387Q-33FDCW-7 uniquely combines 60V input tolerance, 2μA quiescent current, AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, and compact U-DFN2020-6 packaging - making it the only option meeting OEM requirements for next-generation 48V mild-hybrid BCM and BMS subsystems.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the AP7387Q-33FDCW-7 can withstand continuously?
The AP7387Q-33FDCW-7 operates continuously at up to 60V input voltage per its Recommended Operating Conditions. Its Absolute Maximum Rating is 80V for short-duration transients (e.g., ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a load dump), but sustained operation above 60V risks permanent damage and violates specification compliance.
Does the U-DFN2020-6 package require special PCB layout considerations for thermal performance?
Yes - the exposed pad (EP) must be soldered to a minimum 25mm² GND copper area using at least 9 thermal vias (0.3mm diameter, spaced ≤1mm apart) connecting to inner-layer ground planes. Failure to implement this reduces θJA from 47.9°C/W to >70°C/W, risking thermal shutdown under 150mA load at +105°C ambient.
Can AP7387Q-33FDCW-7 replace adjustable LDOs in existing designs without circuit modification?
No - AP7387Q-33FDCW-7 provides only fixed 3.3V output. It lacks feedback (FB) or adjust (ADJ) pins, so it cannot substitute for adjustable regulators like LM317 or AP2204 without removing external resistor dividers and verifying output voltage tolerance matches system requirements.
Is the 2μA quiescent current guaranteed over the full −40°C to +125°C temperature range?
No - the 2μA value is specified at TA = 25°C and VIN = 12V (no load). At −40°C, IQ drops to ~1.5μA; at +125°C, it rises to ≤5μA per Electrical Characteristics table. All values remain well within automotive standby budget limits (<10μA).
