Product details
Overview
RP111H281D-T1-FE from Ricoh Electronics is a CMOS-based low-dropout linear regulator with 500mA output current, fixed 2.8V output, and auto-discharge function. It operates from 1.4V to 5.25V input, achieves ±0.8% output voltage accuracy (≥1.8V), and delivers 75dB ripple rejection at 1kHz. Its 0.23V dropout (at 500mA, VOUT=2.5V) and −75/+45mV load transient response support stable power delivery in compact battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the RP111H281D-T1-FE datasheet, RP111H281D-T1-FE pinout, RP111H281D-T1-FE application, or RP111H281D-T1-FE equivalent, key selection criteria include its SOT-89-5 package thermal performance (900mW on standard land pattern), 0.1µA standby current, and verified load transient behavior under 1mA↔250mA step changes with 1µF/2.2µF output capacitors.
Technical Context
The RP111H281D-T1-FE integrates a precision bandgap reference, error amplifier, and N-channel pass transistor with 60Ω typical ON-resistance (for D-version). Its feedback loop uses internal VFB = 0.7V and supports both fixed-output and adjustable configurations via external resistor dividers.
It includes three protection circuits: foldback current limiting (50mA short-circuit current), thermal shutdown (165°C trip, 100°C release), and inrush current limit (400mA for 180µs at startup). The auto-discharge function actively pulls VOUT to GND when CE = L, enabling rapid system power-down.

FAQ
What is the purpose of the VFB pin on RP111H281D-T1-FE?
The VFB pin is the feedback input tied internally to a 0.7V reference. In fixed-output mode (like RP111H281D-T1-FE), it is shorted to VOUT to set 2.8V output. For adjustable configurations, external resistors connect VOUT to VFB to scale output voltage using VOUT = 0.7V × (1 + R1/R2), with accuracy dependent on resistor matching and VFB pin bias current.
Does RP111H281D-T1-FE require an output capacitor, and what type is recommended?
Yes, RP111H281D-T1-FE requires a minimum 1.0µF ceramic capacitor (X5R/X7R) between VOUT and GND for stability. Tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors are not recommended due to ESR-related instability risks. For improved transient response, 2.2µF or higher is advised, especially in load-step scenarios exceeding 250mA.
How does the auto-discharge function operate, and when is it active?
The auto-discharge function activates only when CE is driven low (≤0.4V). It turns on an internal NMOS switch between VOUT and GND, rapidly discharging external output capacitance. This feature is inactive during normal operation (CE = H) and does not affect regulation accuracy, quiescent current, or dropout performance.
Can RP111H281D-T1-FE be used with input voltages below 1.4V?
No. The absolute minimum input voltage is 1.4V per datasheet specifications. Operation below this threshold may result in unregulated output, increased dropout, or failure to start. For sub-1.4V applications, consider alternative regulators such as Ricoh's RP108 series or other ultra-low-VIN LDOs explicitly rated for lower inputs.
