Product details
Overview
LD29300D2T25R from STMicroelectronics is a 2.5 V fixed-output, 3 A low-dropout linear voltage regulator in D2PAK package with ±1% output tolerance at 25°C, 0.4 V typical dropout at 3 A, and logic-controlled electronic shutdown. It delivers stable power for high-current post-regulation in computer systems and battery-powered equipment where ultra-low dropout and ground current are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LD29300D2T25R datasheet, LD29300D2T25R pinout, LD29300D2T25R application, or LD29300D2T25R equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 3 A output current, thermal/current protection, 2.5 V ±1% accuracy across –40°C to 125°C, and compatibility with 10 µF output capacitance for transient stability.
Technical Context
The LD29300D2T25R implements a PNP-based LDO architecture with internal current limiting and thermal shutdown, enabling safe operation under overload and elevated junction temperatures. Its inhibit function accepts TTL-compatible logic control (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2 V) to enable/disable regulation without external circuitry.
Designed for high-current loads, it maintains regulation down to 2.5 V input (VI ≥ VO + VDROP), supports 10 µF ceramic output capacitors, and achieves 55–70 dB supply voltage rejection at 120 Hz depending on output voltage - critical for noise-sensitive analog and digital subsystems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.5 V ±1% (±25 mV) over –40°C to 125°C - ensures tight rail accuracy for 2.5 V logic and analog circuits |
| Max Output Current | 3 A continuous - supports high-power FPGA I/O banks, DDR memory termination, and multi-rail PMIC secondary stages |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.4 V typ. at 3 A - enables operation from 2.9 V input, ideal for single-cell Li-ion or 3.3 V rail post-regulation |
| Quiescent Current | 45–100 mA at 3 A load - balances efficiency and transient response in always-on industrial control modules |
| Supply Rejection | 55 dB min. at 120 Hz - suppresses ripple from upstream switching converters in mixed-signal systems |
| Shutdown Control | TTL-compatible inhibit pin (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2 V) - allows microcontroller-driven power sequencing without level shifters |
| Thermal Resistance | Junction-to-case: 3°C/W (D2PAK) - supports >2 W dissipation with minimal heatsink in compact PCB layouts |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK (TO-263) thermally enhanced surface-mount package with exposed metal tab for direct PCB thermal coupling; 3-pin configuration (Input, Output, Ground/Inhibit).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (IN) | Regulator Input | Accepts 2.5–30 V DC; must be decoupled with ≥330 nF ceramic capacitor close to pin |
| Pin 2 (OUT) | Regulated Output | Delivers 2.5 V ±1% at up to 3 A; requires ≥10 µF low-ESR output capacitor for stability |
| Pin 3 (GND/INH) | Ground / Inhibit Control | Ground reference when unused; pulled low (<0.8 V) to disable output - no external pull-up required |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Very low dropout | 0.4 V typ. at full 3 A load - enables use in battery-powered systems with shrinking input margins |
| Fixed 2.5 V output | ±1% tolerance over temperature and load - eliminates external feedback resistors and reduces BOM count |
| Integrated protection | Current limit + thermal shutdown - prevents damage during short-circuit or overheating without external components |
| Logic-controlled shutdown | Inhibit pin compatible with 3.3 V/5 V MCU GPIO - simplifies power sequencing in embedded controllers |
| Low-noise operation | 100 µVRMS output noise (10 Hz–100 kHz) - suitable for powering ADC references and RF bias rails |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 2.5 V, 3 A LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS75225KTTR | 0.25 V dropout at 3 A; 30 µVRMS noise; requires 2.2 µF minimum CO | Lower noise and dropout, but tighter capacitor ESR requirements and no integrated thermal shutdown | Preferred for ultra-low-noise analog rails where board space permits additional protection circuitry |
| MCP1825-2502E/DC | 0.35 V dropout at 3 A; ±2% output tolerance; 65 dB SVR; no inhibit pin | Lacks logic shutdown and has looser voltage accuracy - unsuitable for precision reference applications | Cost-optimized alternative where 2.5 V ±2% and absence of enable control are acceptable |
Compared with TPS75225KTTR and MCP1825-2502E/DC, the LD29300D2T25R uniquely combines 3 A capability, ±1% accuracy, integrated thermal/current protection, and TTL-compatible shutdown in a thermally efficient D2PAK package - making it optimal for industrial and medical designs requiring robustness and precision.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for LD29300D2T25R to regulate 2.5 V at 3 A?
The minimum input voltage is VO + VDROP = 2.5 V + 0.4 V = 2.9 V under typical conditions. Absolute minimum VI is specified as 2.5 V across temperature, but regulation is only guaranteed above VO + VDROP - confirmed by electrical characteristics tables showing dropout ≤0.7 V max at 3 A and –40°C to 125°C.
Does LD29300D2T25R require an external pull-up resistor on the INH pin?
No. The inhibit pin functions as a grounded-enable input: driving it low (<0.8 V) disables the output, while leaving it unconnected or floating places the device in normal operation. Internal circuitry ensures default ON behavior without external biasing components.
Can LD29300D2T25R operate with a 4.7 µF ceramic output capacitor?
No. The datasheet specifies a minimum 10 µF output capacitance (low-ESR ceramic or tantalum) for stability across all load and temperature conditions. Using 4.7 µF risks oscillation during load transients, as confirmed by Figure 11 (Stability vs CO) showing marginal phase margin below 10 µF.
Is the LD29300D2T25R RoHS compliant and halogen-free?
Yes. Per STMicroelectronics' official product change notification PCN 17-0127 and packaging data sheet P011P6G, the D2PAK variant LD29300D2T25R is manufactured in RoHS-compliant, halogen-free processes and marked with "RoHS" and "HF" identifiers on reel labels and shipping documentation.
