Product details
Overview
LD6816CX4/C28P,315 from NXP Semiconductors is a 2.8 V fixed-output, 150 mA ultra-low-dropout linear regulator in WLCSP4 package (0.76 mm × 0.76 mm × 0.47 mm), 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 portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the LD6816CX4/C28P,315 datasheet, LD6816CX4/C28P,315 pinout, LD6816CX4/C28P,315 application, or LD6816CX4/C28P,315 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.8 V fixed output, WLCSP4 footprint compatibility, enable-controlled auto-discharge behavior, low-noise performance for RF/analog subsystems, and thermal shutdown protection at 160 °C.
Technical Context
The LD6816CX4/C28P,315 implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout (45 mV @ 150 mA) and fast start-up (<150 µs). Its internal reference and error amplifier maintain ±0.5% output accuracy over temperature and load, while the dedicated EN pin (VIH = 1.1 V, VIL = 0.4 V) controls both regulation and active pull-down discharge.
Unlike high-ohmic disable variants, this part integrates a 100 Ω pull-down switch on OUT during disable mode-enabling rapid output voltage decay (tsd(reg) = 300 µs with 1 µF load capacitor)-critical for sequencing in multi-rail systems. PSRR reaches −55 dB at 1 kHz and remains >−40 dB up to 100 kHz under 150 mA load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.8 V ±2% over −40 °C to +85 °C; ensures stable core voltage for 2.8 V I/O interfaces without external feedback. |
| Dropout Voltage | 45 mV typical at 150 mA; enables operation with VIN as low as 2.845 V, maximizing battery runtime in single-cell Li-ion systems. |
| PSRR | −55 dB at 1 kHz; suppresses switching noise from upstream DC-DC converters feeding sensitive RF or ADC circuits. |
| Output Noise | 30 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz); meets low-noise requirements for precision analog sensors and audio codecs. |
| Quiescent Current | 0.1 µA typical in shutdown (VEN ≤ 0.4 V); minimizes leakage current in always-on system standby modes. |
| 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; discharges 1 µF output capacitance to 5% of 2.8 V in <300 µs, supporting tight power sequencing windows. |
Pinout & Package
LD6816CX4/C28P,315 uses a 4-bump Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP4) with 0.4 mm pitch, dimensions 0.76 mm × 0.76 mm × 0.47 mm, 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 activation and triggers integrated pull-down transistor when logic LOW (≤0.4 V). |
| OUT (B1) | Regulated output voltage | Delivers 2.8 V to load; includes internal 100 Ω pull-down to GND when disabled for auto-discharge. |
| IN (B2) | Input supply voltage | Accepts 2.3 V–5.5 V; requires ≥0.7 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 on OUT pin enables rapid voltage decay (<300 µs) during disable-critical for safe power sequencing in multi-voltage SoC designs. |
| Ultra-low noise output | 30 µVRMS noise (10 Hz–100 kHz) supports clean power delivery to RF transceivers, high-resolution ADCs, and audio amplifiers without additional filtering. |
| High PSRR across frequency | −55 dB at 1 kHz and >−40 dB up to 100 kHz under 150 mA load-effectively isolates noise from noisy DC-DC sources in mixed-signal applications. |
| Low dropout architecture | 45 mV dropout at 150 mA allows operation with minimal headroom (e.g., 2.845 V IN for 2.8 V OUT), extending usable battery range in portable devices. |
| Robust protection suite | Includes over-temperature shutdown (160 °C), current limiting (600 mA short-circuit), and 10 kV HBM ESD protection-reducing need for external protection components. |
Applications
| Smartphone Baseband Power | Digital Camera Sensor Bias |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Powers baseband processor I/O banks requiring precise 2.8 V rail with fast transient response and minimal noise coupling into RF front-end. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary LDO delivering regulated 2.8 V to baseband ASIC I/O interface; enabled/disabled synchronously with processor sleep/wake cycles. Use Value: Auto-discharge ensures rapid rail collapse during deep-sleep entry, preventing unintended leakage paths; 30 µVRMS noise avoids corruption of adjacent RF receive sensitivity. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Compact WLCSP4 LDO supplying BLE radio digital I/O; EN synchronized to host MCU's peripheral power management. Use Value: 0.76 mm × 0.76 mm footprint saves PCB area in space-constrained wristbands; auto-discharge prevents bus contention during BLE reset sequences. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Torex XC6219B282MR-G | 2.8 V fixed output, 150 mA, 60 mV dropout (typ), no auto-discharge; SOT-25 package (2.9 mm × 2.8 mm). | Larger footprint; lacks pull-down function-requires external discharge circuit for sequencing. | Select when board area permits larger package and auto-discharge is not required; offers similar noise (25 µVRMS) but higher dropout reduces battery efficiency. |
| Richtek RT9013-28GB | 2.8 V fixed output, 500 mA, 250 mV dropout (typ), no auto-discharge; DFN-6 (2.0 mm × 2.0 mm). | Higher current rating but significantly higher dropout and no integrated pull-down; larger than WLCSP4. | Choose for higher load margin (up to 500 mA) where sequencing is handled externally; trade-off is 5.6× larger footprint and reduced light-load efficiency. |
Compared with LD6816CX4/C28P,315, the XC6219B282MR-G provides lower noise but sacrifices miniaturization and auto-discharge; the RT9013-28GB trades off footprint and dropout for higher current capacity-neither matches the LD6816CX4/C28P,315's combination of ultra-low dropout, WLCSP4 size, and integrated discharge in a 2.8 V LDO.

FAQ
What is the nominal output voltage of the LD6816CX4/C28P,315?
The LD6816CX4/C28P,315 delivers a fixed nominal output voltage of 2.8 V, with guaranteed accuracy of ±2% over the full operating temperature range (−40 °C to +85 °C) and load conditions (1 mA to 150 mA). This value is confirmed in Table 5 of the NXP datasheet under "Type number extension of pull-down output in WLCSP4 with backside coating" where LD6816CX4/C28P maps to 2.8 V.
Does the LD6816CX4/C28P,315 include an auto-discharge function?
Yes, the LD6816CX4/C28P,315 includes an integrated auto-discharge function: when the EN pin is driven LOW, an internal 100 Ω pull-down transistor connects the OUT pin to GND, discharging a 1 µF output capacitor to 5% of 2.8 V in under 300 µs. This behavior is explicitly defined for the "CxxP" variant family in Section 1.1 and Table 5 of the datasheet.
What package type and dimensions does the LD6816CX4/C28P,315 use?
The LD6816CX4/C28P,315 uses a Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP4) with backside coating, measuring 0.76 mm × 0.76 mm × 0.47 mm and 0.4 mm bump pitch. Dimensions are specified in Table 15 (Figure 25) of the datasheet, confirming the "C" prefix denotes the coated variant with slightly increased package thickness (A = 0.47–0.55 mm).
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LD6816CX4/C28P,315?
The absolute maximum input voltage rating for the LD6816CX4/C28P,315 is +6.0 V for 4 ms transients, as stated in Table 6 ("Limiting values") of the datasheet. The recommended operating input voltage range is 2.3 V to 5.5 V per Table 7, ensuring reliable regulation and thermal performance within specification.
How does the LD6816CX4/C28P,315 achieve low output noise performance?
The LD6816CX4/C28P,315 achieves 30 µVRMS output noise (10 Hz–100 kHz) through optimized internal bandgap reference design, low-noise error amplifier topology, and careful layout isolation-all verified in Table 9 ("Electrical characteristics") and Figure 12 ("Noise density"). Performance is measured with 1 µF X7R output capacitor and zero load current.
