Product details
Overview
RP111L121D5-TR from Ricoh Electronics is a CMOS-based low-dropout linear regulator with 500mA output current, 1.25V fixed output voltage, and DFN1212-6 package. It features ±0.8% output accuracy (≥1.8V), 75dB ripple rejection at 1kHz, 0.23V dropout at 500mA/2.5V, and built-in auto-discharge function. Designed for battery-powered portable equipment requiring stable low-noise power under fast load transients.
For engineers reviewing the RP111L121D5-TR datasheet, RP111L121D5-TR pinout, RP111L121D5-TR application, or RP111L121D5-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 500mA, thermal shutdown threshold (165°C), inrush current limit (400mA/180µs), and compatibility with 1.0µF ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The RP111L121D5-TR implements a CMOS pass transistor architecture with integrated feedback loop compensation optimized for ceramic capacitor stability. Its auto-discharge function (enabled via "D" suffix) actively pulls VOUT to GND when CE is low, eliminating residual voltage on downstream circuitry.
It delivers high transient response via internal error amplifier bandwidth optimization and low-output-impedance design, achieving ±45mV load transient undershoot/overshoot (1mA ↔ 250mA, COUT=1µF, tr=tf=0.5µs). Input transient response remains within ±1.5mV across 1.4–5.25V input range at 30mA load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.25V ±0.8% (guaranteed over −40°C to +85°C) |
| Max Output Current | 500mA continuous - supports single-core microcontrollers and RF front-ends |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.23V typ. at IOUT=500mA, VOUT=2.5V - enables operation down to VIN=1.48V for 1.25V rail |
| Ripple Rejection | 75dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters |
| Supply Current | 80µA typ. - minimizes quiescent loss in always-on subsystems |
| Standby Current | 0.1µA typ. - enables ultra-low-power deep-sleep modes |
| Thermal Shutdown | 165°C junction temperature - protects against sustained overload or poor PCB heatsinking |
| Output Noise | 25µVrms (BW=10Hz–100kHz) - suitable for analog sensor and ADC reference supplies |
Pinout & Package
RP111L121D5-TR uses the DFN1212-6 (1.2mm × 1.2mm, 0.4mm height) package with exposed thermal pad connected to GND. The 6-pin configuration supports compact layout and efficient heat dissipation in space-constrained portable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VOUT | Regulated output node | Delivers 1.25V to load; requires ≥1.0µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin |
| 2 VFB | Feedback reference input | Internally tied to 1.25V reference; shorted to VOUT for fixed-output operation |
| 3 GND | Power and signal ground | Primary return path; connects to exposed thermal pad for thermal management |
| 4 CE | Chip enable (active-high) | Logic-level control (VIH=1.0V min); enables auto-discharge when pulled low |
| 5 NC | No connection | Not internally bonded - must remain unconnected per design |
| 6 VDD | Input supply pin | Accepts 1.4V–5.25V; requires local 1.0µF ceramic decoupling capacitor |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto-discharge function | Actively discharges VOUT to GND when CE = L, preventing floating bias in powered-off states |
| Low-noise regulation | 25µVrms output noise (10Hz–100kHz) - avoids interference in precision analog circuits |
| Fast load transient response | ±45mV max deviation for 1mA ↔ 250mA step (COUT=1µF) - maintains system stability during burst-mode operation |
| Thermal & current protection | Integrated foldback current limit (50mA short-circuit), thermal shutdown (165°C), and inrush current clamp (400mA/180µs) |
| Ceramic capacitor compatible | Stable with ≥1.0µF X5R/X7R ceramics - eliminates need for higher-ESR tantalum or electrolytic caps |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP2204-1.25TRG1 | Higher dropout (0.35V @ 500mA), no auto-discharge, SOT-23-5 only | Lacks active discharge; less suitable for systems requiring rapid VOUT decay on shutdown | Select if board space permits larger package and auto-discharge is unnecessary |
| Torex XC6210B122MR-G | Lower IQ (35µA), same 1.25V output, but no thermal shutdown or inrush limit | Missing critical protection features for high-reliability industrial use | Prefer for ultra-low-power IoT nodes where thermal risk is mitigated externally |
Compared with AP2204-1.25TRG1 and XC6210B122MR-G, RP111L121D5-TR uniquely combines auto-discharge, thermal shutdown, and 75dB PSRR in a 1.2mm² DFN - making it optimal for compact, safety-critical portable electronics where controlled power sequencing and noise immunity are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the purpose of the NC pin on RP111L121D5-TR?
Pin 5 is a no-connect terminal with no internal bond wire or circuit connection. It must remain unconnected in PCB layout to avoid unintended coupling or mechanical stress. This pin exists solely for mechanical symmetry and package standardization within the DFN1212-6 footprint.
Can RP111L121D5-TR operate with a 1.0µF ceramic output capacitor?
Yes - the device is explicitly characterized and guaranteed stable with ≥1.0µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitors (e.g., Murata GRM155B31A105KE15). Tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors are not recommended due to ESR-related instability risks confirmed in application note EA-241-190523.
How does the auto-discharge function behave during CE deactivation?
When CE is driven low, an internal NMOS switch connects VOUT to GND, discharging external capacitance at a rate determined by load and capacitor value. Typical discharge time for 10µF is <5ms. This prevents residual voltage from powering downstream logic or causing latch-up in mixed-voltage systems.
Is thermal derating required for RP111L121D5-TR in a 40mm×40mm double-sided PCB?
Yes - at ambient temperatures above 25°C, power dissipation must be reduced per θJA=167°C/W. For example, at TA=60°C and Tjmax=125°C, maximum allowable PD drops to 390mW. Full derating curves and land pattern guidelines are provided in section 13 of the datasheet (NO.EA-241-190523).
