Product details
Overview
LD2982BM33R from STMicroelectronics is a 50 mA fixed-output low-dropout (LDO) linear voltage regulator with 3.3 V output, TTL-compatible inhibit control, and ultra-low noise (30 µVRMS). It delivers 120 mV dropout at 50 mA load, draws only 75 µA quiescent current at 1 mA load, and operates across –40 °C to +125 °C - ideal for battery-powered portable electronics requiring stable, quiet power rails.
For engineers reviewing the LD2982BM33R datasheet, LD2982BM33R pinout, LD2982BM33R application, or LD2982BM33R equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1 µF ceramic capacitor stability, <1 µA shutdown current, ±1% output tolerance at 25 °C, and SOT23-5L footprint compatibility in space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The LD2982BM33R integrates a PMOS pass transistor enabling ultra-low dropout (as low as 7 mV at 1 mA), combined with internal current and thermal limiting for robust operation. Its inhibit input (Pin 3) accepts TTL-level logic to disable regulation and reduce quiescent current to <1 µA - critical for system-level power gating.
Low-noise performance is achieved via a dedicated bypass pin (Pin 4) accepting a 10 nF capacitor to ground, reducing output noise to 30 µVRMS (300 Hz–50 kHz). Supply voltage rejection remains at 45 dB (typ.) at 1 kHz, supporting clean regulation even with noisy input sources.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.3 V ±1% at 25 °C - ensures precise rail generation for 3.3 V logic and analog circuitry without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 50 mA - sufficient for powering microcontroller I/O banks, sensors, or RF front-end bias circuits. |
| Dropout Voltage | 120 mV at 50 mA - enables regulation from 3.42 V input, extending battery runtime in single-cell Li-ion or dual-cell alkaline systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 75 µA at 1 mA load - minimizes standby power loss in always-on subsystems like real-time clocks or wake-on-event circuits. |
| Output Noise | 30 µVRMS (300 Hz–50 kHz) with 10 nF bypass cap - meets stringent noise requirements for ADC references and RF synthesizer supplies. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5 V to 16 V - supports wide-input applications including automotive accessory rails and industrial 12 V systems. |
| Shutdown Current | <1 µA when INHIBIT = low - enables deep-sleep modes in portable devices without external MOSFET switches. |
Pinout & Package
LD2982BM33R is housed in a compact, surface-mount SOT23-5L package (2.8 × 1.6 × 1.3 mm), optimized for high-density PCB layouts and reflow compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN) | Regulator input supply | Accepts 2.5–16 V DC; requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor placed ≤0.5″ from pin for stability. |
| 2 (GND) | Analog ground reference | Must connect to clean analog ground plane; shared return path for IN, OUT, and Bypass pins. |
| 3 (INHIBIT) | Logic-controlled enable/disable | TTL-compatible input; pulls low (<0.15 V) to disable regulator and reduce IQ to <1 µA. |
| 4 (BYPASS) | Noise reduction node | Connects 10 nF capacitor to GND to lower output noise to 30 µVRMS; not functional if left open. |
| 5 (OUT) | Regulated 3.3 V output | Delivers up to 50 mA; requires ≥2.2 µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor (X7R) within 0.5″ for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low dropout | 7 mV at 1 mA load - maintains regulation down to near-VOUT, maximizing usable battery voltage range. |
| Low-noise architecture | 30 µVRMS output noise with 10 nF bypass cap - eliminates need for post-regulation LC filtering in sensitive analog stages. |
| Logic-controlled shutdown | <1 µA quiescent current in inhibit mode - enables system-level power sequencing without external FETs or controllers. |
| Stable with 1 µF ceramic caps | Guaranteed stability using low-cost, small-footprint X7R ceramics - reduces BOM count and board area vs. tantalum alternatives. |
| Wide temperature operation | –40 °C to +125 °C junction range - qualified for industrial and extended-temperature embedded applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP2204K-3.3TRG1 | Higher dropout (250 mV @ 50 mA); no bypass pin; 50 µVRMS noise. | Lacks low-noise optimization; suitable where noise is less critical than cost. | Prefer when board space permits larger input headroom and noise specs are relaxed. |
| MCP1700T-3302E/TT | Lower IQ (2 µA typical in shutdown); 250 mV dropout; no inhibit pin - uses EN instead. | Requires pull-up on EN for always-on operation; lacks TTL-compatible inhibit logic. | Choose when ultra-low shutdown IQ is primary requirement and GPIO logic levels differ. |
Compared with AP2204K-3.3TRG1 and MCP1700T-3302E/TT, LD2982BM33R uniquely combines sub-100 mV dropout, <1 µA shutdown, and dedicated bypass pin - making it optimal for noise-sensitive, battery-constrained portable systems requiring precise 3.3 V regulation.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for stable 3.3 V output at 50 mA?
The LD2982BM33R requires an input voltage of at least 3.42 V to maintain regulation at 50 mA load, based on its 120 mV typical dropout voltage. Below this threshold, output voltage drops linearly with input; operation below 2.5 V input is not guaranteed per absolute maximum ratings.
Can the INHIBIT pin be left unconnected?
No - the INHIBIT pin must never be left floating. If unused, it must be tied directly to the input voltage (VI) to ensure the regulator remains enabled. Floating the pin risks unpredictable shutdown behavior due to noise coupling or internal leakage paths.
Is an external capacitor required on the BYPASS pin?
Yes - a 10 nF ceramic capacitor between BYPASS (Pin 4) and GND is required to achieve the specified 30 µVRMS output noise. Omitting it results in higher broadband noise (≈100 µVRMS), degrading performance in noise-sensitive analog circuits.
What output capacitor value is recommended for 3.3 V operation?
For 3.3 V output, ST specifies a minimum 2.2 µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor (X7R dielectric) on the OUT pin. This value ensures stability across temperature and load; smaller values may require a series resistor to maintain phase margin, per Section 6.3 of the datasheet.
