Product details
Overview
LD49100PU12RY from STMicroelectronics is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified ultra-low-dropout linear regulator delivering 1 A output current with 200 mV typical dropout at full load, 20 µA quiescent current at no load, and ±2.0% output voltage accuracy at 25 °C. It operates from 1.5 V to 5.5 V input and provides a fixed 1.2 V output in a DFN6 (3×3 mm) wettable flanks package for automotive infotainment and ADAS power rails.
For engineers reviewing the LD49100PU12RY datasheet, LD49100PU12RY pinout, LD49100PU12RY application, or LD49100PU12RY equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.2 V fixed output, Power Good monitoring capability, logic-controlled enable, thermal shutdown at 160 °C, and stability with 1 µF ceramic output capacitors - all validated for -40 °C to 125 °C operation.
Technical Context
The LD49100PU12RY implements a precision bandgap reference-based error amplifier driving a PMOS pass transistor, enabling ultra-low dropout and high PSRR (70 dB @ 1 kHz). Its internal 1 ms soft-start circuit limits inrush current during enable transitions, while the open-drain Power Good output monitors regulated output within ±7% of nominal VOUT (93–99% rising threshold).
It integrates overcurrent limiting (2.5 A short-circuit current), thermal shutdown with 20 °C hysteresis, and logic-level enable control (0.4 V low / 0.9 V high thresholds). The device is stable with 1 µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitors on both input and output, eliminating need for bypass capacitors to achieve 30 µVRMS noise at 0.8 V output.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.2 V ±2.0% at 25 °C; supports automotive core logic and I/O supply domains requiring tight regulation. |
| Dropout Voltage | 200 mV typ. at 1 A load; enables operation with VIN as low as 1.4 V while maintaining regulation - critical for battery-supplied systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 20 µA typ. at no load; ensures <1 µA shutdown current, extending battery life in always-on vehicle modules. |
| Power Good Accuracy | PG threshold = 93–99% of actual VOUT; provides reliable sequencing and fault detection without external comparators. |
| Noise Performance | 30 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz) at VOUT = 0.8 V; meets low-noise requirements for analog sensors and RF subsystems without bypass cap. |
| Thermal Protection | 160 °C shutdown with 20 °C hysteresis; prevents permanent damage during sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
| Input Voltage Range | 1.5 V to 5.5 V; compatible with 3.3 V, 2.5 V, and 1.8 V system rails and wide-range automotive battery inputs. |
Pinout & Package
LD49100PU12RY is housed in a 6-pin DFN6 (3×3 mm) package with wettable flanks for automated optical inspection (AOI) and enhanced solder joint reliability in automotive applications. The exposed thermal pad must be connected to GND for optimal thermal performance (RthJA = 55 °C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - EN | Enable input | Active-high logic control: ≥0.9 V enables regulator; ≤0.4 V disables it with <1 µA total current draw. |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal circuits and thermal pad connection point. |
| 3 - PG | Power Good open-drain output | Asserts high-impedance when VOUT ≥93% of nominal; requires external 100 kΩ–1 MΩ pull-up to VIN or VOUT. |
| 4 - VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers fixed 1.2 V at up to 1 A; connects directly to load or remote sensing point. |
| 5 - VSENSE | Output voltage sense | Internally tied to VOUT in fixed versions; enables remote sensing if routed to load side to compensate PCB drop. |
| 6 - VIN | Input supply | Accepts 1.5–5.5 V; requires ≥1 µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLD1112-12B | Fixed 1.2 V, 1.2 A, 250 mV dropout, 35 µA IQ, no PG output | Lacks Power Good flag and remote sensing; simpler enable-only control | Select when sequencing is handled externally and PG monitoring is unnecessary. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for LD49100PU12RY to maintain 1.2 V output at 1 A?
The minimum input voltage is 1.4 V, calculated as VOUT + VDROP = 1.2 V + 200 mV. At temperatures beyond 25 °C or under worst-case process variation, dropout may reach 400 mV, requiring VIN ≥1.6 V for guaranteed regulation at full load across the full -40 °C to 125 °C range.
Can LD49100PU12RY operate without an external pull-up resistor on the PG pin?
No - the PG pin is open-drain and requires an external pull-up resistor (100 kΩ to 1 MΩ) to either VIN or VOUT to generate a valid logic-high signal. Leaving PG floating results in undefined behavior; if unused, it must remain unconnected per datasheet guidance.
Is the VSENSE pin on LD49100PU12RY internally connected to VOUT?
Yes - in the fixed-output LD49100PU12RY variant, Pin 5 (VSENSE) is internally tied to Pin 4 (VOUT). For standard operation, connect VSENSE directly to VOUT; for remote sensing, route it to the load-side of the output trace to compensate for PCB IR drop.
Does LD49100PU12RY require a bypass capacitor to achieve its specified 30 µVRMS noise performance?
No - the 30 µVRMS noise specification (at VOUT = 0.8 V) is achieved without any bypass capacitor. This value is measured with only the required 1 µF ceramic output capacitor. Adding a bypass cap does not improve noise and is unnecessary for this device.
