Product details
Overview
PT7M8202B33TA5EX from Pericom Semiconductor is a high-accuracy, ultra-low-noise LDO regulator with 3.3V fixed output, 300mA output current capability, 270mV dropout at full load, 30µVRMS output noise (10Hz–100kHz), and 80dB PSRR at 1kHz - designed for RF power supply rails in mobile transceivers and portable wireless systems.
For engineers reviewing the PT7M8202B33TA5EX datasheet, PT7M8202B33TA5EX pinout, PT7M8202B33TA5EX application, or PT7M8202B33TA5EX equivalent, key selection criteria include low-noise performance under RF load transients, EN-controlled standby mode with 0.1µA quiescent current, BP-pin noise bypass support, ceramic capacitor compatibility, and SOT23-5L package thermal limits.
Technical Context
The PT7M8202B33TA5EX uses a P-channel MOSFET pass element with internal phase compensation optimized for stability with 1µF X5R/X7R ceramic input/output capacitors. Its error amplifier compares a resistive-divided output against a precision bandgap reference to maintain regulation across ±100ppm/℃ temperature drift.
It integrates dedicated circuitry for quick start-up (~50µs), current-limit protection (450mA typical), thermal shutdown at 170°C with 40°C hysteresis, and an independent BP pin enabling 22nF capacitor-based noise filtering that reduces output RMS noise by >50% versus standard configuration.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±2% over load/temperature - ensures stable core voltage for 3.3V logic and RF ICs without external feedback. |
| Dropout Voltage | 270mV @ 300mA - enables operation from 3.57V input, supporting single-cell Li-ion (3.6V nominal) or dual-cell alkaline supplies. |
| Output Noise | 30µVRMS (10Hz–100kHz) - meets stringent RF LNA/VCO supply noise requirements without additional LC filtering. |
| PSRR | 80dB @ 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters feeding the LDO input. |
| Standby Current | 0.1µA @ EN = low - extends battery life in sleep modes of portable devices with periodic wake-up cycles. |
| Operating Range | 1.8V–5.5V input, –40°C to +85°C ambient - supports wide-input industrial and consumer battery-powered applications. |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-5L (TA5) package: 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.15mm body, JEDEC MO-178C/AA compliant, lead-free and RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VIN | Input Supply Rail | Accepts 1.8–5.5V; requires local 1µF X5R/X7R ceramic decoupling to GND for stability and transient response. |
| 2 - GND | Analog/Digital Ground Reference | Common return path for input/output capacitors and BP bypass; must be low-impedance PCB plane connection. |
| 3 - EN | Enable Control Input | Active-high logic (VENH ≥1.5V); controls regulator on/off state; floating input increases supply current. |
| 4 - BP | Noise Bypass Terminal | Connects to GND via 22nF capacitor to reduce output noise; trace length must be minimized to preserve filtering efficacy. |
| 5 - VOUT | Regulated Output | Delivers 3.3V ±2% at up to 300mA; requires local 1µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor to GND for loop stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-Low-Noise Regulation | 30µVRMS output noise with BP pin bypass - enables direct powering of sensitive RF front-end components. |
| Fast Start-Up Time | Typical 50µs turn-on delay - supports rapid wake-up sequences in battery-operated communication devices. |
| Ceramic Capacitor Compatibility | Stable with 1µF X5R/X7R input/output - eliminates need for costly tantalum or polymer capacitors. |
| Thermal & Overcurrent Protection | 170°C shutdown with 40°C hysteresis and 450mA current limit - prevents damage during short-circuit or overload events. |
| Low Standby Power | 0.1µA shutdown current - extends shelf life and operational runtime in always-on IoT sensor nodes. |

|---|---|---|---|
| Torex XC6206P332MR | 300mA, 3.3V fixed, 350mV dropout @300mA, no BP pin, 45µVRMS noise | Lacks BP noise-bypass capability; lower PSRR (70dB @1kHz) | Preferred where board space is constrained and RF noise sensitivity is moderate. |
| Richtek RT9193-33GB | 300mA, 3.3V fixed, 250mV dropout @300mA, 50µVRMS noise, no BP pin | Better dropout but higher noise; no dedicated noise-reduction terminal | Selected when lowest possible dropout is prioritized over RF-grade noise suppression. |

FAQ
What is the recommended BP capacitor value and placement for optimal noise reduction?
A 22nF ceramic capacitor must be placed directly between the BP pin and GND with minimal trace length - ideally ≤2mm - to achieve the specified 30µVRMS output noise. Longer traces degrade high-frequency bypass effectiveness and may increase output ripple above 100kHz.
Can the PT7M8202B33TA5EX operate stably with 0.47µF output capacitance?
No - the device requires ≥1µF X5R/X7R ceramic output capacitance for guaranteed stability per the datasheet. Using 0.47µF risks oscillation under load transients due to insufficient phase margin from reduced ESR and capacitance.
Does the EN pin require a pull-up or pull-down resistor in normal operation?
EN is CMOS-compatible and does not require external biasing if driven actively high (≥1.5V) or low (≤0.3V). Floating EN increases supply current; a 100kΩ pull-down is recommended only in systems where the control signal may be undriven during power-up.
How does thermal shutdown hysteresis affect recovery behavior after overheating?
After junction temperature exceeds 170°C, the regulator shuts down and remains off until temperature falls to ~130°C (170°C − 40°C hysteresis), preventing repeated cycling during sustained overload - ensuring safe cooldown before resuming regulation.
