Product details
Overview
SIP21106DVP-25-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 2.5 V fixed-output, 150 mA low-noise LDO voltage regulator in TSC75-6L package. It features 135 mV dropout at 150 mA, 60 µV(rms) output noise (10 Hz–100 kHz), ±1.0 % output accuracy at 25 °C, and operates across –40 °C to +85 °C ambient. Designed for battery-powered RF systems such as cellular handsets and wireless modems where quiet supply rails are critical.
For engineers reviewing the SIP21106DVP-25-E3 datasheet, SIP21106DVP-25-E3 pinout, SIP21106DVP-25-E3 application, or SIP21106DVP-25-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low ground current (35 µA typ. at 1 mA), integrated auto-discharge (100 Ω NMOS), and compatibility with 1 µF ceramic output capacitors without external compensation.
Technical Context
The SIP21106DVP-25-E3 uses a P-channel MOSFET pass transistor with 0.9 Ω typical on-resistance, enabling low dropout and near-zero gate drive current. Its bandgap reference (1.2 V) feeds an error amplifier that regulates output by adjusting the PMOS gate voltage based on feedback from internal resistors.
Startup includes active pull-down for fast transient response; shutdown mode disables regulation and activates a 100 Ω internal discharge path to ground. The BP pin accepts a 10 nF bypass capacitor to suppress noise-critical for RF-sensitive loads-and the device maintains stability with minimal 1 µF output capacitance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.5 V ±1.0 % at 25 °C; ensures stable core logic or analog supply without external resistors. |
| Dropout Voltage | 135 mV at 150 mA load; enables operation down to VIN = 2.635 V while maintaining regulation. |
| Output Noise | 60 µV(rms), 10 Hz–100 kHz bandwidth with 10 nF BP capacitor; meets stringent RF LNA/PA supply noise requirements. |
| Ground Current | 35 µA typical at 1 mA load; extends battery life in always-on standby circuits. |
| Shutdown Current | ≤1 µA maximum at 85 °C; minimizes leakage 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 discharge path activated when EN = 0 V; clears output within <1 ms for safe sequencing. |
Pinout & Package
TSC75-6L package: 1.6 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.55 mm, Pb-free, industrial temperature range (–40 °C to +85 °C).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - EN | Enable control input | Active-high logic; <0.4 V disables regulator and triggers auto-discharge; connect to VIN if unused. |
| 2 - GND | Power ground reference | Primary thermal path; must be connected to large PCB ground plane for thermal management. |
| 3 - VIN | Input supply | Accepts 2.2–6.0 V; requires 1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor to ground for stability and noise rejection. |
| 4 - VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers 2.5 V at up to 150 mA; stable with ≥1 µF ceramic output capacitor (ESR < 0.4 Ω). |
| 5 - NC | No connection | Internally unconnected; leave floating or tie to GND per layout best practice. |
| 6 - BP | Noise bypass terminal | Connects to 10 nF ceramic capacitor to ground to reduce output noise; not required for basic operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low noise regulation | 60 µV(rms) output noise with 10 nF BP cap-enables clean power for RF front-ends and precision ADCs. |
| P-channel MOSFET pass element | 0.9 Ω typical RDS(on); eliminates base-drive current loss, improving efficiency over PNP-based LDOs. |
| Integrated auto-discharge | 100 Ω NMOS discharge path activated on shutdown-eliminates need for external bleed resistor in power sequencing. |
| Stable with small ceramics | Guaranteed stability with 1 µF X7R/Y7R output capacitor-reduces BOM count and board area vs. tantalum alternatives. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-2502E/TT | 250 mA rated output, 1.6 µA quiescent current, SOT-23-5 package; no BP pin or auto-discharge. | Lacks noise-bypass capability and integrated discharge; suitable only where ultra-low IQ dominates over noise performance. | Select only if system prioritizes lowest possible shutdown current over RF-grade noise suppression. |
| TPS78025DDCR | 200 mA output, 500 nA IQ, 170 mV dropout at 150 mA, WSON-6 package; no BP pin or auto-discharge. | Higher dropout and no noise-reduction path; optimized for ultra-low-power microcontroller cores-not RF analog rails. | Prefer for deep-sleep MCU applications; avoid where 60 µV(rms) noise or fast discharge is required. |
Compared with MCP1700T-2502E/TT and TPS78025DDCR, SIP21106DVP-25-E3 uniquely delivers 60 µV(rms) noise with BP filtering and 100 Ω auto-discharge-making it the only choice among the three for RF-sensitive 2.5 V rail generation in space-constrained portable designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for SIP21106DVP-25-E3?
The absolute maximum input voltage for SIP21106DVP-25-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 behavior defined down to 2.635 V at full 150 mA load. Always observe derating curves for thermal limits in the TSC75-6L package.
Does SIP21106DVP-25-E3 require an external bypass capacitor on the BP pin?
Yes-SIP21106DVP-25-E3 requires a 10 nF ceramic capacitor connected from the BP pin to GND to achieve its specified 60 µV(rms) output noise performance. Without this capacitor, output noise rises to 350 µV(rms). The BP pin is exclusive to the SiP21106 variant; SiP21107 and SiP21108 use this pin for POK and Adj functions respectively.
How does the auto-discharge function work in SIP21106DVP-25-E3?
When the EN pin is driven low, SIP21106DVP-25-E3 enters shutdown mode and activates an internal 100 Ω NMOS discharge path between VOUT and GND. This discharges a 1 µF output capacitor in under 1 ms, ensuring rapid and controlled power-down. No external components are needed-the feature is fully integrated and functional across the full –40 °C to +85 °C temperature range.
Can SIP21106DVP-25-E3 operate with a 1 µF output capacitor?
Yes-SIP21106DVP-25-E3 is explicitly designed to remain stable with a minimum 1 µF ceramic output capacitor (X7R or Y7R dielectric), provided ESR stays below 0.4 Ω. Larger capacitors improve load-transient response and PSRR but are not required. Z5U/Y5V types are discouraged due to temperature-dependent ESR shifts that may risk instability at extremes.
Is SIP21106DVP-25-E3 still in production or available for new designs?
SIP21106DVP-25-E3 is End of Life per Vishay's notice: last purchase date was 31-Dec-2014. However, Aetrix Electronics maintains legacy inventory and supports ongoing production programs with traceable, tested stock. For new designs, engineers should evaluate drop-in alternatives-but SIP21106DVP-25-E3 remains viable where its unique 60 µV(rms) noise + auto-discharge combination is irreplaceable.
