Product details
Overview
LD6836CX4/14H,315 from NXP Semiconductors is a 1.4 V fixed-output, 300 mA ultra-low-dropout linear regulator in a 0.4 mm pitch WLCSP4 package (0.76 mm × 0.76 mm × 0.47 mm), featuring 90 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 LD6836CX4/14H,315 datasheet, LD6836CX4/14H,315 pinout, LD6836CX4/14H,315 application, or LD6836CX4/14H,315 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.4 V output accuracy (±0.5% at +25°C), 55 dB PSRR at 1 kHz, 150 µs startup time, 0.1 µA shutdown quiescent current, and thermal protection up to 160°C - all critical for compact battery-powered systems requiring stable low-noise biasing.
Technical Context
The LD6836CX4/14H,315 implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout (90 mV typical at 300 mA) and high PSRR (−55 dB at 1 kHz) without external compensation. Its enable input (active HIGH, VIH ≥ 1.1 V) controls a high-ohmic output state when disabled, eliminating residual leakage paths in standby mode.
Designed for miniaturized portable applications, it operates across 2.3 V–5.5 V input range with ±0.5% output voltage accuracy at +25°C and ±3% over −30°C to +85°C ambient, while maintaining stability with 0.7–1.0 µF X7R ceramic output capacitance and integrated ESD protection (10 kV HBM).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.4 V ±0.5% at +25°C; enables precise biasing of 1.4 V logic or analog rails without external feedback. |
| Dropout Voltage | 90 mV typical at 300 mA; allows operation down to VIN = 1.49 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 noisy supply domains. |
| Output Noise | 30 µVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz); supports low-noise analog circuitry (e.g., ADC references, RF LNA bias) without added filtering. |
| Quiescent Current | 0.1 µA typical in shutdown (VEN ≤ 0.4 V); minimizes battery drain during deep sleep modes in always-on sensors or IoT endpoints. |
| Enable Threshold | VIL ≤ 0.4 V / VIH ≥ 1.1 V; compatible with 1.8 V and 3.3 V GPIOs without level-shifting, simplifying host MCU interface. |
| Thermal Protection | Shuts down at 160°C with 20 K hysteresis; prevents thermal runaway during sustained overload or poor PCB heat sinking. |
Pinout & Package
LD6836CX4/14H,315 uses a 4-bump Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP4) with 0.4 mm pitch, footprint 0.76 mm × 0.76 mm, and height 0.47 mm - optimized for space-constrained mobile PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Supply ground reference | Primary return path for output current and internal bias; must connect to low-impedance ground plane for noise and thermal performance. |
| EN | Enable control input | Active HIGH logic input; drives internal pass transistor; floating state defaults to OFF (high-ohmic output). |
| OUT | Regulated output voltage | Delivers stable 1.4 V to load; requires 0.7–1.0 µF X7R ceramic capacitor with ESR 5–500 mΩ for stability. |
| IN | Input voltage supply | Accepts 2.3–5.5 V input; benefits from local 0.7–1.0 µF input decoupling capacitor near the pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low dropout | 90 mV at 300 mA enables >95% efficiency at 1.4 V output from 1.5 V sources (e.g., coin cells or partially discharged batteries). |
| Low-noise regulation | 30 µVRMS noise ensures clean power for precision analog blocks without requiring additional LDO stages or ferrite beads. |
| High-ohmic disable | Outputs high-impedance state when EN = LOW, preventing back-powering or unintended loading of downstream circuits during sleep. |
| Integrated ESD protection | 10 kV HBM rating eliminates need for external TVS diodes on IN/OUT pins in handheld device front-end designs. |
| Small WLCSP4 footprint | 0.76 mm × 0.76 mm area reduces PCB real estate by >70% vs. SOT23-5 packages, supporting ultra-thin smartphone and wearable layouts. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LD6836CX4/14P | Same WLCSP4 package and 1.4 V output, but includes pull-down transistor for auto-discharge (low-ohmic output when disabled). | Required where rapid output discharge is needed after shutdown (e.g., to reset downstream logic or avoid latch-up). | Select LD6836CX4/14P only if active discharge is mandatory; LD6836CX4/14H,315 is preferred for zero-load leakage in always-off subsystems. |
| TPS7A0514PDBVR | 1.4 V, 200 mA, 0.5 mm pitch DSBGA6 package (1.06 mm × 1.06 mm); 170 mV dropout at 200 mA; 4.5 µA quiescent current in active mode. | Larger footprint and higher dropout limit use in ultra-low-voltage battery systems; lower max current restricts high-speed interface support. | Choose TPS7A0514PDBVR only if TI ecosystem alignment or different thermal profile is prioritized; LD6836CX4/14H,315 offers superior noise, PSRR, and current capability in smaller area. |
Compared with LD6836CX4/14P, LD6836CX4/14H,315 provides true high-ohmic disable for zero standby leakage, while versus TPS7A0514PDBVR it delivers 100 mA more output current, 80 mV lower dropout, and 30× lower output noise - making it optimal for noise-critical, space-constrained, high-efficiency portable power rails.

FAQ
What is the nominal output voltage and tolerance of the LD6836CX4/14H,315?
The LD6836CX4/14H,315 delivers a fixed 1.4 V output with ±0.5% accuracy at +25°C ambient temperature and ±3% over the full operating range of −30°C to +85°C. This tight tolerance ensures reliable operation of 1.4 V logic and analog circuits without external trimming or calibration.
Does the LD6836CX4/14H,315 require an external output capacitor, and what are the specifications?
Yes, the LD6836CX4/14H,315 requires an external ceramic output capacitor of 0.7–1.0 µF (X7R dielectric recommended) with ESR between 5 mΩ and 500 mΩ. This capacitor ensures loop stability, reduces output ripple, and affects shutdown timing - undersizing risks oscillation or slow transient response.
What is the dropout voltage specification for the LD6836CX4/14H,315 at full load?
The LD6836CX4/14H,315 has a typical dropout voltage of 90 mV at 300 mA output current and maximum of 160 mV under worst-case conditions. This allows the device to regulate 1.4 V output even when input drops to 1.49 V, extending usable battery life in single-cell systems.
How does the enable function operate on the LD6836CX4/14H,315?
The LD6836CX4/14H,315 features an active HIGH enable input (EN pin) with VIH ≥ 1.1 V and VIL ≤ 0.4 V. When EN is pulled HIGH, the regulator powers up with 150 µs startup time; when EN is LOW, the output enters high-ohmic (3-state) mode, drawing only 0.1 µA quiescent current.
Is the LD6836CX4/14H,315 RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, the LD6836CX4/14H,315 is Pb-free, RoHS-compliant, and fully halogen- and antimony-free (dark green compliant), meeting strict environmental regulations for consumer electronics including smartphones and wearables sold globally.
