Product details
Overview
LD6816CX4/C22P,315 from NXP Semiconductors is a 2.2 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 cores in portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the LD6816CX4/C22P,315 datasheet, LD6816CX4/C22P,315 pinout, LD6816CX4/C22P,315 application, or LD6816CX4/C22P,315 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.2 V fixed output, sub-100 mV dropout performance, 55 dB PSRR at 1 kHz, shutdown quiescent current of 0.1 µA, and WLCSP4 footprint compatibility with high-density mobile PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LD6816CX4/C22P,315 integrates a precision voltage reference, error amplifier, and PMOS pass transistor optimized for minimal dropout and low-noise regulation. Its enable input (active HIGH) controls both regulation and the internal 100 Ω pull-down switch that actively discharges the output during disable-critical for fast power-state transitions in battery-powered systems.
This device implements over-temperature shutdown (160 °C trip, 20 K hysteresis) and output current limiting (600 mA short-circuit protection), with thermal resistance Rth(j-a) = 130 K/W on standard two-layer PCBs. Its 1.0 µF minimum output capacitance requirement supports rapid start-up (<150 µs) and stable transient response across –40 °C to +85 °C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.2 V ±3 % over –40 °C to +85 °C; enables direct powering of 2.2 V I/O domains without external feedback. |
| Dropout Voltage | 45 mV typical at 150 mA load; allows operation with VIN as low as 2.245 V, maximizing battery runtime in single-cell Li-ion or Li-poly systems. |
| PSRR | 55 dB at 1 kHz; suppresses switching noise from upstream DC-DC converters feeding the LDO input. |
| Output Noise | 30 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz); meets stringent noise requirements for RF transceivers, ADC references, and audio codecs. |
| Quiescent Current | 0.1 µA typical in shutdown (VEN ≤ 0.4 V); minimizes leakage current in always-on subsystems like real-time clocks or wake-on-event circuits. |
| Enable Threshold | VIH = 1.1 V min, VIL = 0.4 V max; compatible with 1.8 V and 3.3 V GPIO logic without level-shifting. |
| Pull-down Resistance | 100 Ω typical; ensures rapid discharge of 1 µF output capacitor in ≤300 µs, enabling clean power sequencing in multi-rail systems. |
Pinout & Package
LD6816CX4/C22P,315 uses a 0.76 mm × 0.76 mm × 0.47 mm Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP4) with 0.4 mm bump pitch and backside coating for enhanced mechanical robustness and moisture resistance.
| 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 and activates internal pull-down transistor when LOW; no external pull-up required. |
| OUT (B1) | Regulated output voltage | Delivers 2.2 V to load; requires ≥0.7 µF X7R ceramic capacitor with ESR 5–500 mΩ for stability. |
| IN (B2) | Input voltage supply | Accepts 2.3–5.5 V; decoupling capacitor recommended close to pin to minimize input impedance at high frequencies. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto-discharge function | Integrated 100 Ω pull-down transistor actively discharges OUT during disable-eliminates need for external bleed resistors in power-gated domains. |
| Ultra-low noise regulation | 30 µVRMS output noise enables use in sensitive analog signal chains without additional filtering stages. |
| Fast transient response | 150 µs start-up time and 300 µs shutdown time support dynamic power management in mobile SoC subsystems. |
| Robust protection suite | Includes over-temperature shutdown (160 °C), current limiting (600 mA), and 10 kV HBM ESD rating-reduces system-level protection component count. |
| Miniaturized WLCSP4 package | 0.76 mm × 0.76 mm footprint saves >70 % board area vs. SOT-23 alternatives-ideal for space-constrained smartphones and wearables. |

The LD6816CX4/C22P,315 provides a fixed 2.2 V nominal output voltage with ±3 % tolerance over –40 °C to +85 °C ambient temperature and 1 mA to 150 mA load current. This value is laser-marked as "K" on the WLCSP4 package per Table 13 and confirmed in Table 5 of the datasheet.
Does the LD6816CX4/C22P,315 include an auto-discharge function?
Yes, the LD6816CX4/C22P,315 includes an integrated pull-down transistor that provides a low-ohmic output state (100 Ω typical) when disabled, enabling active discharge of the output capacitor. This feature is inherent to the "CxxP" suffix and distinguishes it from "xxH" variants which enter high-ohmic state.
What is the minimum output capacitance required for stable operation of the LD6816CX4/C22P,315?
The LD6816CX4/C22P,315 requires a minimum external output capacitance of 0.7 µF, with a recommended value of 1.0 µF X7R ceramic capacitor. The capacitor must have ESR between 5 mΩ and 500 mΩ to ensure loop stability and meet transient response specifications per Table 10.
What is the thermal resistance (Rth(j-a)) of the LD6816CX4/C22P,315 under standard conditions?
The typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (Rth(j-a)) of the LD6816CX4/C22P,315 is 130 K/W when mounted on a standard two-layer PCB per Table 8. Effective thermal performance depends on copper pour area and via placement-solid GND connections to all pins are essential to achieve this rating.
Is the LD6816CX4/C22P,315 RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, the LD6816CX4/C22P,315 is Pb-free, RoHS-compliant, and free of halogen and antimony-meeting NXP's "dark green compliant" standard as stated in Section 1.2. It conforms to JEDEC J-STD-020C moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements for reflow soldering.
