Product details
Overview
LD39020TPU32R from STMicroelectronics is a 3.2 V, ±0.5 % accuracy, 200 mA ultra-low-dropout linear regulator with 200 mV typical dropout at full load, 20 µA typical quiescent current, and logic-controlled enable. It operates from 1.5 V to 5.5 V input and supports ceramic output capacitors as low as 0.47 µF - designed for precision power rail regulation in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the LD39020TPU32R datasheet, LD39020TPU32R pinout, LD39020TPU32R application, or LD39020TPU32R equivalent, key selection criteria include output voltage tolerance (±0.5 %), thermal shutdown threshold (160 °C), soft-start timing (100 µs), PSRR (80 dB @ 1 kHz), and compatibility with DFN4 1x1 or SOT23-5L PCB footprints.
Technical Context
The LD39020TPU32R integrates a bandgap reference, error amplifier, and PMOS pass transistor in a fully internal feedback loop. Its ultra-low dropout stems from the PMOS architecture enabling near-rail operation - critical for battery-powered systems where VIN may dip close to VOUT.
It features dual-mode enable control (active-high EN pin), internal soft-start limiting inrush current, and optional output discharge MOSFET (not present in TPU32R variant per order code table). Thermal protection activates at 160 °C with 20 °C hysteresis, and short-circuit current is internally limited to 250–350 mA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.2 V ±0.5 % at 25 °C - ensures stable MCU core or sensor supply under varying load/temperature. |
| Max Output Current | 200 mA guaranteed - sufficient for powering low-power microcontrollers, RF transceivers, or image sensors. |
| Dropout Voltage | 200 mV typ. @ 200 mA - enables regulation down to VIN = 3.4 V, extending battery runtime in single-cell Li-ion or Li-poly systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 20 µA typ. @ no load - minimizes standby power loss in always-on subsystems like real-time clocks or wake-up circuits. |
| PSRR | 80 dB @ 1 kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC-DC converters feeding shared input rails. |
| Enable Threshold | VEN(H) = 1 V min., VEN(L) = 0.4 V max. - compatible with 1.8 V and 3.3 V logic families without level-shifting. |
| Operating Temp | −40 °C to +125 °C junction - qualified for automotive cabin and industrial edge node environments. |
| Stability Cap | 0.47 µF ceramic COUT - reduces BOM count and board area vs. larger tantalum or electrolytic alternatives. |
Pinout & Package
LD39020TPU32R is available in two compact packages: DFN4 1×1 mm (0.4 mm height) and SOT23-5L. Both are RoHS-compliant, thermally enhanced, and support automated assembly. The DFN4 variant includes an exposed thermal pad connected to GND for improved heat dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN | Input voltage supply | Accepts 1.5–5.5 V; requires ≥1 µF ceramic decoupling placed adjacent to pin. |
| GND | Power ground reference | Common return for IN, OUT, and EN; thermal pad (DFN4) must be soldered to PCB GND plane. |
| EN | Logic enable input | Active-high control: <0.4 V = shutdown (<0.1 µA ISTANDBY), >1 V = active regulation. |
| OUT | Regulated output | Delivers 3.2 V ±0.5 %; stable with 0.47–22 µF ceramic capacitor (X5R/X7R recommended). |
| NC | No connect | Not internally bonded - leave unconnected and unpopulated on PCB (SOT23-5L Pin 4). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low dropout | 200 mV @ 200 mA enables use with depleted batteries or low-headroom inputs. |
| Low-noise regulation | 45 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz) supports noise-sensitive analog circuits like ADC references or audio codecs. |
| Internal soft-start | 100 µs controlled ramp prevents inrush current spikes during power-up - eliminates need for external RC networks. |
| Thermal & current protection | Auto-recovery thermal shutdown (160 °C) and foldback current limiting ensure robustness under fault conditions. |
| Ceramic capacitor compatible | Stable with 0.47 µF X5R/X7R output cap - reduces cost, size, and aging drift vs. electrolytics. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Torex XC6210B322MR-G | 3.2 V ±1.0 % accuracy, 150 mA output, 150 mV dropout @ 100 mA, no enable pin | Lacks logic control and thermal shutdown; limited to simpler, lower-current loads | Select when enable functionality and 200 mA headroom are not required and cost is primary constraint. |
| ROHM BD39020FP-E2 | 3.2 V ±2.0 % accuracy, 200 mA, 250 mV dropout @ 200 mA, 35 µA IQ, SOT-23-5 only | Looser tolerance and higher quiescent current reduce precision and battery life in low-power modes | Choose only if ST's ±0.5 % grade is unavailable and system tolerances allow ±2.0 % variation. |

FAQ
What is the minimum output capacitor required for stable operation of LD39020TPU32R?
The LD39020TPU32R is stable with a minimum 0.47 µF X5R or X7R ceramic capacitor on the output. While the control loop functions down to 220 nF, 0.47 µF is the recommended minimum to ensure stability across temperature, input voltage, and load variations per Figure 17 in DS9956.
Does LD39020TPU32R include the output discharge feature?
No. LD39020TPU32R does not integrate the output discharge MOSFET. Per Table 10 in DS9956, only part numbers with "AD" prefix (e.g., LD39020ADTPU32R) or "D" suffix (e.g., LD39020DTPU32R) include auto-discharge; "T" suffix denotes standard version without this function.
Can LD39020TPU32R operate with a 1.5 V input while regulating 3.2 V output?
No. LD39020TPU32R cannot regulate 3.2 V output from 1.5 V input because the input voltage must exceed the output voltage by at least the dropout voltage. With 200 mV typical dropout, minimum valid input is 3.4 V. The 1.5–5.5 V range applies only to configurations where VOUT ≤ VIN − VDROP.
What is the thermal resistance of LD39020TPU32R in DFN4 1x1 package?
In DFN4 1x1 package, LD39020TPU32R has RthJA = 250 °C/W (junction-to-ambient, standard JEDEC 2-layer board) and RthJC = 45 °C/W (junction-to-case, measured to thermal pad). These values assume full thermal pad soldering to a dedicated GND plane per Figure 29 in DS9956.
