Product details
Overview
LD6816CX4/36H,315 from NXP Semiconductors is a 3.6 V fixed-output, 150 mA ultra-low-dropout linear regulator in WLCSP4 package with 45 mV dropout at full load, 30 µVRMS output noise (10 Hz–100 kHz), and high-ohmic (3-state) output during disable-designed for power-sensitive mobile interfaces in smartphones and portable media players.
For engineers reviewing the LD6816CX4/36H,315 datasheet, LD6816CX4/36H,315 pinout, LD6816CX4/36H,315 application, or LD6816CX4/36H,315 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.3–5.5 V input range, 0.1 µA shutdown quiescent current, 55 dB PSRR at 1 kHz, thermal/overcurrent protection, and WLCSP miniaturization for space-constrained PCBs.
Technical Context
The LD6816CX4/36H,315 implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout voltage and stable regulation across −40 °C to +85 °C ambient. Its enable input (EN) operates with TTL-compatible thresholds (VIL ≤ 0.4 V, VIH ≥ 1.1 V) and supports fast turn-on (<150 µs) without external sequencing.
Internal circuitry integrates over-temperature shutdown (160 °C trip, 20 K hysteresis), output current limiting (600 mA short-circuit), and ESD protection rated to ±10 kV HBM. The high-ohmic disable state isolates the output without pull-down, preserving downstream bias integrity in multi-rail systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.6 V ±2% over −40 °C to +85 °C; ensures stable core/peripheral supply for 3.3 V–3.6 V logic domains. |
| Dropout Voltage | 45 mV typical at 150 mA; enables operation with only 3.645 V input, maximizing battery runtime in single-cell Li-ion systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 0.1 µA typical in shutdown (EN ≤ 0.4 V); minimizes leakage in always-on subsystems like real-time clocks or wake-up controllers. |
| PSRR | 55 dB at 1 kHz; suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC-DC converters feeding shared input rails. |
| Output Noise | 30 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz); meets low-noise requirements for RF front-ends, ADC references, and audio codecs. |
| Enable Threshold | VIH = 1.1 V min, VIL = 0.4 V max; compatible with 1.8 V and 3.3 V GPIOs without level-shifting. |
| Thermal Protection | 160 °C shutdown with 20 K hysteresis; prevents latch-up during transient overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
Pinout & Package
Package: Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP4), 0.76 mm × 0.76 mm × 0.47 mm, 0.4 mm bump pitch, Pb-free/RoHS/halogen-free compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (A1) | Supply ground reference | Primary return path for regulator current; must connect to solid ground plane for thermal and noise performance. |
| EN (A2) | Active-HIGH enable input | Controls LDO operation; floating defaults to disabled; requires no external pull-up for low-power systems. |
| OUT (B1) | Regulated output voltage | Delivers 3.6 V to load; high-ohmic (3-state) when disabled-no auto-discharge, preserving downstream node voltage. |
| IN (B2) | Input voltage supply | Accepts 2.3–5.5 V; requires ≥0.7 µF X7R ceramic capacitor with 5–500 mΩ ESR for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low dropout | 45 mV at 150 mA enables use with <3.7 V sources-critical for extending discharge depth in Li-ion batteries. |
| Low-noise regulation | 30 µVRMS noise supports precision analog circuits without requiring additional filtering stages. |
| High-ohmic disable | True 3-state output eliminates load discharge path, preventing unintended current flow into powered-down subsystems. |
| Integrated protection | Over-temperature shutdown (160 °C) and current limiting (600 mA) reduce need for external fault management circuitry. |
| Miniature WLCSP | 0.76 mm × 0.76 mm footprint saves >70% board area vs. SOT-23, enabling ultra-thin mobile and wearable designs. |

FAQ
What is the nominal output voltage and tolerance of the LD6816CX4/36H,315?
The LD6816CX4/36H,315 provides a fixed 3.6 V output with ±2% tolerance over −40 °C to +85 °C ambient temperature and 1 mA to 150 mA load current. This accuracy is guaranteed across process, voltage, and temperature variations, making LD6816CX4/36H,315 suitable for powering precision analog and mixed-signal circuits without external trimming.
Does the LD6816CX4/36H,315 include built-in protection features?
Yes, LD6816CX4/36H,315 integrates over-temperature shutdown (160 °C trip with 20 K hysteresis), output current limiting (600 mA short-circuit protection), and ±10 kV HBM ESD protection. These features eliminate the need for external protection components in most portable designs, reducing BOM count and improving system reliability.
How does the high-ohmic disable mode of the LD6816CX4/36H,315 differ from auto-discharge variants?
LD6816CX4/36H,315 enters a true high-ohmic (3-state) output condition when disabled-disconnecting the output from both IN and GND. Unlike LD6816CX4/36P variants with integrated pull-down transistors, LD6816CX4/36H,315 preserves downstream node voltage, preventing unintended discharge in multi-rail systems where isolation is critical.
What is the recommended output capacitor for stable operation of the LD6816CX4/36H,315?
The LD6816CX4/36H,315 requires a minimum 0.7 µF X7R ceramic capacitor at the OUT pin, with recommended value of 1.0 µF and ESR between 5 mΩ and 500 mΩ. Using capacitors outside this range may cause instability or excessive startup/shutdown time-verified in LD6816CX4/36H,315 characterization across temperature and load conditions.
Can the LD6816CX4/36H,315 operate from a single-cell lithium-ion battery?
Yes, LD6816CX4/36H,315 supports input voltages from 2.3 V to 5.5 V, covering the full discharge curve of a single-cell Li-ion battery (4.2 V down to ~2.7 V). With only 45 mV dropout at 150 mA, it continues regulating until the battery reaches ~3.645 V-maximizing usable energy and runtime in portable devices using LD6816CX4/36H,315.
