Product details
Overview
LD6836CX4/20H,315 from NXP Semiconductors is a 2.0 V fixed-output, 300 mA ultra-low-dropout linear regulator in a 0.4 mm pitch WLCSP4 package (0.76 × 0.76 × 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 - optimized for space-constrained mobile power rails in smartphones and portable media players.
For engineers reviewing the LD6836CX4/20H,315 datasheet, LD6836CX4/20H,315 pinout, LD6836CX4/20H,315 application, or LD6836CX4/20H,315 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.0 V output accuracy (±0.5% at +25°C), 55 dB PSRR at 1 kHz, 150 µs startup time, and thermal shutdown protection at 160°C - all validated for operation across −40°C to +85°C ambient.
Technical Context
The LD6836CX4/20H,315 implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout voltage and stable regulation with only 1 µF external output capacitance. Its enable input (active HIGH, VIH ≥ 1.1 V) controls a high-impedance output state when disabled, eliminating residual leakage paths in battery-powered systems.
Internally integrated over-temperature protection (160°C shutdown with 20 K hysteresis) and output current limiting (600 mA short-circuit current) ensure robustness in transient fault conditions. The device meets 10 kV HBM ESD rating and operates across 2.3 V–5.5 V input range while maintaining ±3% total output voltage variation over temperature and load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.0 V ±0.5% at +25°C; ±3% over −40°C to +85°C - ensures stable core/sensor rail without external feedback. |
| Dropout Voltage | 90 mV typical at 300 mA - enables >95% efficiency at low VIN–VOUT margins (e.g., 2.3 V input → 2.0 V output). |
| 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) - supports noise-sensitive analog circuits (ADCs, RF receivers) without additional filtering. |
| Quiescent Current | 0.1 µA typical in shutdown mode - extends battery life in always-on standby applications. |
| Enable Threshold | VIL ≤ 0.4 V, VIH ≥ 1.1 V - compatible with 1.8 V/3.3 V GPIO logic without level-shifting. |
| Thermal Resistance | 130 K/W (junction-to-ambient) - requires minimal PCB copper area for thermal management in compact layouts. |
Pinout & Package
LD6836CX4/20H,315 uses a 4-bump Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP4) with 0.4 mm pitch and footprint 0.76 mm × 0.76 mm. Solder bumps are arranged in 2×2 grid; bump A1 is index corner (see Figure 2 of datasheet).
| 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. |
| EN | Enable input (active HIGH) | Controls regulator ON/OFF; pulls output to high-impedance state when < 0.4 V; requires no pull-up for default OFF. |
| OUT | Regulated output voltage | Delivers 2.0 V to load; requires ≥0.7 µF X7R ceramic capacitor (ESR 5–500 mΩ) for stability. |
| IN | Input voltage supply | Accepts 2.3–5.5 V; benefits from 1 µF input decoupling capacitor near package to reduce ripple coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low dropout | 90 mV at 300 mA enables operation from single-cell Li-ion (2.7 V min) down to 2.0 V output with margin. |
| Low-noise regulation | 30 µVRMS noise supports precision analog subsystems without added LDO post-filtering stages. |
| High-impedance disable | Output floats (not pulled) when EN = LOW - prevents back-powering or loading of downstream circuitry. |
| Integrated protection | Thermal shutdown (160°C) and current limiting (600 mA) eliminate need for external fault-handling circuitry. |
| Miniaturized packaging | 0.76 mm × 0.76 mm WLCSP4 footprint saves >70% board area vs. SOT753, critical for thin mobile designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LD6836CX4/20P | Same WLCSP4 package and 2.0 V output, but includes integrated pull-down transistor for auto-discharge during disable. | Required where rapid output discharge is needed (e.g., multi-rail sequencing, safety-critical shutdown). | Select LD6836CX4/20P if downstream circuitry must be actively pulled to GND when disabled; LD6836CX4/20H,315 maintains high-Z state. |
| TPS7A0520PDBVR | 2.0 V fixed-output, 200 mA LDO in 1.2 mm × 1.2 mm SOT-23-5; higher dropout (175 mV @ 200 mA) and higher noise (45 µVRMS). | Suitable for less space-constrained designs where WLCSP handling is impractical or reflow process lacks fine-pitch capability. | Choose TPS7A0520PDBVR only if board assembly cannot support 0.4 mm pitch WLCSP; otherwise LD6836CX4/20H,315 offers superior noise and size. |
Compared with LD6836CX4/20P, LD6836CX4/20H,315 avoids output discharge current during disable - reducing quiescent power in always-on sensors. Versus TPS7A0520PDBVR, it delivers 40% lower dropout and 33% lower noise in half the footprint, justifying WLCSP adoption where miniaturization is critical.

FAQ
What is the nominal output voltage and tolerance of LD6836CX4/20H,315?
The LD6836CX4/20H,315 provides a fixed 2.0 V output with ±0.5% accuracy at +25°C and ±3% over the full operating temperature range (−40°C to +85°C). This tight tolerance ensures reliable operation of voltage-sensitive digital I/O and analog sensor interfaces without external trimming components.
Does LD6836CX4/20H,315 require external capacitors, and what values are recommended?
Yes, LD6836CX4/20H,315 requires a minimum 0.7 µF X7R ceramic capacitor on the output (CL(ext)) for stability, with 1.0 µF recommended. An input capacitor (Ci(ext)) of 1.0 µF is also advised. Capacitor ESR must be between 5 mΩ and 500 mΩ; deviation risks oscillation or poor transient response.
How does the enable function operate on LD6836CX4/20H,315?
The LD6836CX4/20H,315 features an active-HIGH enable pin (EN): applying ≥1.1 V turns the regulator ON with 150 µs startup time; pulling EN ≤0.4 V disables the device and places the OUT pin in a high-impedance (3-state) condition - preventing back-powering or loading of downstream circuits.
What thermal protection does LD6836CX4/20H,315 include?
LD6836CX4/20H,315 integrates over-temperature protection that shuts down the regulator at 160°C junction temperature, with 20 K hysteresis to prevent cycling. Thermal resistance is 130 K/W (junction-to-ambient), so PCB layout must provide adequate copper area to avoid exceeding this limit under 300 mA load.
Is LD6836CX4/20H,315 RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, LD6836CX4/20H,315 is Pb-free, RoHS-compliant, and fully halogen- and antimony-free (dark green compliant), meeting environmental requirements for consumer electronics including smartphones and portable media devices.
