Product details
Overview
SIP21106DR-33-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is a fixed-output 3.3 V, 150 mA low-noise low-dropout (LDO) regulator in SC70-5L package. It delivers 135 mV dropout at 150 mA, 60 µV(rms) output noise (10 Hz–100 kHz), ±1.0 % output voltage accuracy at 25 °C, and 35 µA ground current at 1 mA load-optimized for battery-powered RF systems requiring stable, quiet voltage rails.
For engineers reviewing the SIP21106DR-33-E3 datasheet, SIP21106DR-33-E3 pinout, SIP21106DR-33-E3 application, or SIP21106DR-33-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low noise performance, SC70-5L footprint compatibility, shutdown auto-discharge capability, and operation across –40 °C to +85 °C ambient.
Technical Context
The SIP21106DR-33-E3 uses a P-channel MOSFET pass transistor with 0.9 Ω typical on-resistance, enabling low quiescent current and no base-drive loss. Its internal 1.2 V bandgap reference feeds an error amplifier that regulates output by adjusting the PMOS gate voltage based on feedback from a fixed resistor divider.
Startup includes active pull-down for fast transient response; shutdown mode enables <1 µA supply current and activates a 100 Ω NMOS discharge path to ground the output. The BP pin accepts a 10 nF ceramic bypass capacitor to suppress output noise without compromising stability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3 V ±1.0 % at 25 °C - ensures precise rail generation for 3.3 V logic and analog circuitry. |
| Dropout Voltage | 135 mV at 150 mA load - allows regulation down to VIN = 3.435 V, extending usable battery range. |
| Output Noise | 60 µV(rms), 10 Hz–100 kHz - meets stringent RF front-end and ADC reference requirements. |
| Ground Current | 35 µA (typical) at 1 mA load - minimizes standby power draw in portable devices. |
| Shutdown Current | ≤1 µA at 85 °C - preserves battery life during system sleep modes. |
| Thermal Protection | 160 °C junction shutdown with 20 °C hysteresis - prevents permanent damage under sustained overload. |
| Auto-Discharge | 100 Ω NMOS path discharges 1 µF output cap in <1 ms - eliminates residual voltage during power-down sequencing. |
Pinout & Package
SC70-5L package: 2.1 mm × 2.1 mm × 0.95 mm, lead-free, RoHS-compliant, industrial temperature range (–40 °C to +85 °C).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (EN) | Enable input | Active-high control: ≥1.2 V enables regulation; ≤0.4 V disables output and triggers auto-discharge. |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Electrical return and primary thermal path-must connect to large copper plane for thermal management. |
| 3 (VIN) | Input supply | Accepts 2.2–6.0 V; requires 1 µF ceramic bypass to GND for line-transient immunity. |
| 4 (VOUT) | Regulated output | Delivers fixed 3.3 V; stable with ≥1 µF ceramic output capacitor (ESR < 0.4 Ω). |
| 5 (BP) | Noise bypass | Connects to 10 nF ceramic capacitor to GND to reduce output noise by filtering reference/amp noise. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise architecture | 60 µV(rms) output noise with 10 nF BP capacitor-enables clean power for RF transceivers and precision ADCs. |
| P-channel pass transistor | 0.9 Ω typical RDS(on) eliminates base-current loss-reduces ground current vs. PNP-based LDOs. |
| Fast transient response | Active pull-down circuit improves load-step recovery-critical for burst-mode digital loads. |
| Integrated protection | 330 mA current limit and 160 °C thermal shutdown-eliminates need for external fault-handling circuitry. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-3302E/TT | 300 mA output, 1.6 µA quiescent current, no BP pin, SOT-23-5 package | Lacks low-noise BP bypass capability; higher IQ reduces battery life in always-on sensors | Select when higher output current is required and noise sensitivity is secondary. |
| TCS2110-3.3 | 150 mA, 65 µV(rms) noise, 1.2 % accuracy, TSOT23-5L package | Similar noise and accuracy but larger 3.05 mm × 2.85 mm footprint and no auto-discharge | Choose when board layout permits larger package and discharge sequencing is handled externally. |
Compared with MCP1700T-3302E/TT and TCS2110-3.3, the SIP21106DR-33-E3 uniquely combines ultra-low noise (60 µV), integrated auto-discharge, and minimal SC70-5L footprint-making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-operated RF systems where power integrity and shutdown behavior are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for SIP21106DR-33-E3?
The absolute maximum input voltage for SIP21106DR-33-E3 is 6.5 V relative to GND. Operation above 6.0 V is outside the recommended range and may compromise long-term reliability. The device is specified for continuous operation between 2.2 V and 6.0 V input, with dropout performance validated up to 6.0 V.
Does SIP21106DR-33-E3 require an external bypass capacitor on the BP pin?
Yes, SIP21106DR-33-E3 requires a 10 nF ceramic capacitor from the BP pin to GND to achieve its specified 60 µV(rms) output noise. Omitting this capacitor increases noise to ~350 µV(rms). Larger values (>50 nF) are not recommended as they degrade startup time and may affect stability.
How does the auto-discharge function operate in SIP21106DR-33-E3?
When the EN pin is pulled low, SIP21106DR-33-E3 enters shutdown mode and activates an internal 100 Ω NMOS discharge path from VOUT to GND. This discharges a 1 µF output capacitor in under 1 ms, ensuring rapid and controlled power-down without external components.
Can SIP21106DR-33-E3 be used with ceramic output capacitors smaller than 1 µF?
No-SIP21106DR-33-E3 requires a minimum 1 µF ceramic output capacitor (ESR < 0.4 Ω) for guaranteed stability across –40 °C to +85 °C. Smaller values risk oscillation or degraded load-transient response, especially at full 150 mA load.
Is SIP21106DR-33-E3 still in production?
No-SIP21106DR-33-E3 is End of Life per Vishay documentation (Last Available Purchase Date: 31-Dec-2014). Aetrix Electronics provides remaining inventory with full traceability and supports legacy design continuity through lifecycle management services.
