Product details
Overview
LD56100DPU25R from STMicroelectronics is a 1 A ultra-low-noise, low-dropout linear voltage regulator delivering 2.5 V output with ±1% accuracy across -40 °C to +85 °C, 120 mV typical dropout at 1 A/3.3 V (scalable per VOUT), and 13 µVRMS noise (10 Hz–100 kHz). It operates from 1.8–5.5 V input, features logic-controlled shutdown (<0.1 µA standby), internal soft-start, and optional output discharge-designed for camera sensor power in mobile phones and tablets.
For engineers reviewing the LD56100DPU25R datasheet, LD56100DPU25R pinout, LD56100DPU25R application, or LD56100DPU25R equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout performance at 2.5 V load, ceramic capacitor compatibility (1 µF min), thermal protection behavior at 125 °C junction, and LCON-configurable current limit (1 A / 0.5 A).
Technical Context
The LD56100DPU25R implements a bandgap-referenced error amplifier driving a PMOS pass transistor, enabling ultra-low dropout and fast transient response without external compensation. Its internal soft-start circuit limits inrush current by ramping output over ~100 µs, eliminating need for external timing components.
Logic-controlled enable (EN) and current-limit selection (LCON) pins provide system-level control: EN asserts active mode above 1 V (low = shutdown), while LCON selects full (1 A) or reduced (0.5 A) current limit via voltage threshold detection. The optional integrated discharge MOSFET activates on EN deassertion to rapidly drain COUT.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.5 V fixed, ±1% tolerance over -40 °C to +85 °C ensures stable core/sensor rail under thermal stress. |
| Max Output Current | 1 A continuous (LCON = VIN); reduces to 0.5 A when LCON = GND-enables scalable power delivery per system state. |
| Dropout Voltage | 140 mV typ. at 1 A (VOUT = 2.5 V), enabling operation down to 2.64 V input-critical for battery-powered brownout resilience. |
| Noise Performance | 13 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz) supports low-noise analog/camera rails without added filtering. |
| PSRR | 70 dB @ 1 kHz-suppresses switching noise from upstream DC-DC converters feeding the LDO. |
| Quiescent Current | 100 µA typ. at no-load; 0.03 µA in shutdown-extends battery life in always-on sensor subsystems. |
| Operating Temp | -40 °C to +125 °C junction range allows deployment in thermally constrained mobile PCBs near processors or cameras. |
Pinout & Package
LD56100DPU25R is housed in a thermally enhanced DFN8 package (1.2 × 1.6 mm, 0.4 mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad (Pin 8) requiring PCB GND connection for optimal thermal dissipation (RthJA = 80 °C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 | VOUT | Regulated 2.5 V output; dual pins reduce IR drop and improve current sharing in high-current paths. |
| 3 | LCON | Current limit select: high = 1 A, low = 0.5 A-enables dynamic power scaling via host GPIO. |
| 4 | FB | Feedback node; must be routed adjacent to load positive terminal to minimize trace impedance errors. |
| 5 | GND | Analog ground reference; connects to PCB ground plane beneath thermal pad for noise immunity. |
| 6 | EN | Enable input: logic high (>1 V) activates regulator; low (<0.4 V) forces shutdown with <0.1 µA supply current. |
| 7 | VIN | Main input (1.8–5.5 V); requires local 1 µF ceramic decoupling placed within 2 mm of pin. |
| 8 | Thermal Pad | Internally connected to GND; must be soldered to ≥40 mm² copper pour for thermal management at 1 A load. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low noise regulation | 13 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz) enables direct powering of image sensors and ADC references without post-LDO filtering. |
| Internal soft-start | ~100 µs controlled ramp eliminates inrush current spikes-prevents input rail collapse during power-up sequencing. |
| Configurable current limit | LCON pin selects 1 A or 0.5 A foldback limit, allowing hardware-based current capping without firmware intervention. |
| Ceramic capacitor stability | Stable with 1 µF X5R/X7R output cap (3–300 mΩ ESR)-reduces BOM count and board area vs. tantalum alternatives. |
| Output discharge function | Integrated MOSFET discharges COUT on EN deassertion-ensures rapid rail collapse for safe processor reset or sleep entry. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Torex XC6210B251MR-G | 2.5 V fixed, 1 A, 150 mV dropout @ 1 A, 25 µVRMS noise, no LCON or discharge MOSFET. | Lacks current-limit configuration and output discharge-requires external circuitry for safe shutdown sequencing. | Select when lowest BOM cost is prioritized over programmable current limiting and fast discharge. |
| Analog Devices ADP160ACBZ-2.5-R7 | 2.5 V fixed, 150 mA max, 195 mV dropout @ 150 mA, 45 µVRMS noise, no LCON, no discharge. | Rated for only 150 mA-insufficient for 1 A camera loads; higher noise impacts SNR in precision imaging. | Only suitable for low-current auxiliary rails where 1 A capability is unnecessary. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for stable 2.5 V output at 1 A load?
The LD56100DPU25R requires VIN ≥ VOUT + VDROP = 2.5 V + 140 mV = 2.64 V (typical) to maintain regulation at 1 A. Absolute minimum VIN is 1.8 V, but dropout increases significantly below 2.64 V, risking output droop under full load.
Can the LD56100DPU25R operate without the optional output discharge feature enabled?
Yes-the LD56100DPU25R variant includes the discharge MOSFET, but it remains inactive unless EN is driven low. No external components are needed to disable discharge; leaving EN high maintains normal operation without discharge action.
How does LCON pin configuration affect short-circuit protection behavior?
When LCON = VIN, short-circuit current foldback limits to ~400 mA (VOUT = 0); when LCON = GND, it reduces to ~180 mA. This allows hardware-selectable fault current limiting-critical for protecting downstream circuits during connector shorts in portable devices.
Is a 1 µF ceramic output capacitor sufficient for stability across temperature and load variations?
Yes-ST specifies stability with 1 µF X5R/X7R capacitors (ESR 3–300 mΩ) over -40 °C to +125 °C and 0–1 A load. Designers must verify capacitor datasheet ESR/C variation curves to ensure the selected part stays within this window across all operating conditions.
