Product details
Overview
LD6816CX4/14P,315 from NXP Semiconductors is a 1.4 V fixed-output, 150 mA ultra-low-dropout linear regulator in a 0.4 mm pitch WLCSP4 package, featuring 45 mV dropout at full load, 30 µVRMS output noise (10 Hz–100 kHz), and auto-discharge functionality via integrated pull-down transistor. It operates from 2.3 V to 5.5 V input and delivers stable power to noise-sensitive analog/digital rails in space-constrained mobile devices.
For engineers reviewing the LD6816CX4/14P,315 datasheet, LD6816CX4/14P,315 pinout, LD6816CX4/14P,315 application, or LD6816CX4/14P,315 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.4 V fixed output, WLCSP4 footprint compatibility, enable-controlled auto-discharge behavior, low-noise performance, and thermal shutdown protection for portable battery-powered systems.
Technical Context
The LD6816CX4/14P,315 implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout voltage and high PSRR (55 dB at 1 kHz). Its internal reference generator and feedback network ensure ±0.5% output accuracy at 25 °C with ±3% variation over −40 °C to +85 °C ambient range.
It integrates active enable control (VIH = 1.1 V min), over-temperature shutdown (160 °C trip, 20 K hysteresis), and current limiting (600 mA short-circuit protection). The auto-discharge function pulls OUT to GND via a 100 Ω internal switch when EN is low, eliminating residual voltage on downstream capacitors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.4 V ±0.5% at 25 °C; supports precision biasing of low-voltage logic and RF circuitry |
| Dropout Voltage | 45 mV typical at 150 mA; enables operation with minimal VIN–VOUT headroom, extending battery life |
| PSRR | 55 dB at 1 kHz; suppresses ripple from noisy switching supplies feeding sensitive analog blocks |
| Output Noise | 30 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz); critical for powering ADCs, PLLs, and audio codecs without added filtering |
| Quiescent Current | 0.1 µA typical in shutdown; reduces standby power loss in always-on subsystems |
| Enable Threshold | VIL ≤ 0.4 V, VIH ≥ 1.1 V; compatible with 1.8 V/3.3 V GPIO without level-shifting |
| Thermal Protection | 160 °C shutdown with 20 K hysteresis; prevents permanent damage during transient overload or poor PCB thermal design |
Pinout & Package

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (A1) | Supply ground reference | Primary return path for regulator current; must connect to low-impedance ground plane for stability and noise control |
| EN (A2) | Active-HIGH enable input | Controls LDO operation; drives high (>1.1 V) to activate, low (<0.4 V) to disable with auto-discharge |
| OUT (B1) | Regulated output voltage | Delivers 1.4 V to load; includes internal 100 Ω pull-down to GND when disabled |
| IN (B2) | Input supply voltage | Accepts 2.3 V–5.5 V; requires local 1 µF X7R ceramic capacitor with ESR 5–500 mΩ for stability |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto-discharge function | Integrated 100 Ω pull-down transistor discharges output capacitance rapidly upon disable, preventing unintended wake-up or latch-up in powered-down states |
| Ultra-low noise regulation | 30 µVRMS output noise enables direct powering of precision analog circuits without additional LDO stages or ferrite beads |
| Fast transient response | 150 µs startup time ensures rapid system power sequencing; 300 µs shutdown time supports controlled power-down sequences |
| Robust protection suite | Includes over-temperature shutdown (160 °C), current limiting (600 mA), and 10 kV HBM ESD protection on all pins |
| Miniaturized packaging | 0.76 mm × 0.76 mm WLCSP4 footprint saves >70% board area vs. SOT-23, ideal for smartphones and wearables |
Applications
| Smartphone Baseband Core | Digital Camera Image Sensor Bias |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Torex XC6219B142MR-G | 1.4 V fixed output, 150 mA, 65 mV dropout (typ), 40 µVRMS noise, SOT-25 package (2.9 mm × 2.8 mm) | Larger footprint; no auto-discharge; higher dropout reduces usable battery range | Select when board space permits larger package and auto-discharge is unnecessary |
| Richtek RT9013-14GB | 1.4 V fixed output, 300 mA, 250 mV dropout (typ), 45 µVRMS noise, DFN-4 (1.0 mm × 1.0 mm) | Higher current capability but 5.6× higher dropout; no integrated pull-down; larger than WLCSP4 | Choose only if >150 mA load current or DFN assembly infrastructure exists |

FAQ
What is the nominal output voltage of the LD6816CX4/14P,315?
The LD6816CX4/14P,315 provides a fixed 1.4 V nominal output voltage with ±0.5% accuracy at 25 °C and ±3% over −40 °C to +85 °C ambient temperature. This value is confirmed by Table 4 in the NXP datasheet, which maps the "/14P" suffix to 1.4 V output across the LD6816CX4/xxP family.
Does the LD6816CX4/14P,315 include auto-discharge functionality?
Yes, the LD6816CX4/14P,315 includes an integrated pull-down transistor that provides low-ohmic output state (auto-discharge) when disabled. As stated in Section 1.1 and Table 4, the "P" suffix denotes this feature, and electrical characteristics confirm Rpd = 100 Ω typical in shutdown mode.
What package type and dimensions does the LD6816CX4/14P,315 use?
The LD6816CX4/14P,315 uses a Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP4) measuring 0.76 mm × 0.76 mm × 0.47 mm with 0.4 mm solder bump pitch. Dimensions are specified in Table 14 and Figure 24 of the NXP datasheet, confirming compliance with JEDEC MO-220 standards for ultra-compact mounting.
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LD6816CX4/14P,315?
The LD6816CX4/14P,315 has an absolute maximum input voltage of +6.0 V for 4 ms transients, with recommended operating range of 2.3 V to 5.5 V per Table 7. Exceeding 5.5 V continuously risks exceeding thermal limits or triggering overvoltage protection not explicitly implemented in this device.
How does the enable pin (EN) interface with common microcontroller GPIOs?
The EN pin of LD6816CX4/14P,315 accepts standard 1.8 V or 3.3 V logic levels: VIH ≥ 1.1 V activates regulation, while VIL ≤ 0.4 V disables it with auto-discharge. This eliminates need for external level shifters when interfacing with most modern MCU I/O ports, as verified in Table 7 and Figure 21 of the datasheet.
