Product details
Overview
TCR2EE185,LM(CT from Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation is a 1.85 V fixed-output, 200 mA CMOS low dropout regulator with fast load transient response (±60 mV), low noise (35 μVrms), and on/off control input. It operates from 1.5–5.5 V input, features 180 mV dropout at 150 mA, ±1.0% output accuracy (≥1.8 V), and overcurrent protection. It powers sensitive analog/RF circuitry in portable instrumentation and wireless modules.
For engineers reviewing the TCR2EE185,LM(CT datasheet, TCR2EE185,LM(CT pinout, TCR2EE185,LM(CT application, or TCR2EE185,LM(CT equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 150 mA, load transient performance with 1.0 μF ceramic output capacitor, control logic thresholds (ON ≥1.0 V, OFF ≤0.4 V), and ESV (SOT-553) package thermal limits.
Technical Context
The TCR2EE185,LM(CT uses a CMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low quiescent current (35 μA typ.) and high ripple rejection (73 dB at 1 kHz). Its internal Auto-discharge function actively discharges the output when disabled, preventing residual voltage hold-up in power-gated systems.
Designed for stable operation with minimal external components, it supports ceramic input (≥0.1 μF) and output (≥1.0 μF) capacitors and includes integrated overcurrent protection and pull-down on the CONTROL pin to ensure defined OFF-state behavior without external resistors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output voltage | Fixed 1.85 V ±1.0% (ensures precision biasing for RF LNA or ADC reference stages) |
| Max output current | 200 mA DC (supports moderate-power microcontrollers or sensor signal chains) |
| Dropout voltage | 230 mV typ. at 150 mA (enables regulation from 2.08 V input, critical for single-cell Li-ion or coin-cell systems) |
| Load transient response | ±60 mV with 1.0 μF COUT (maintains stability during digital core switching events) |
| Output noise | 35 μVrms (10 Hz–100 kHz) (minimizes phase noise in VCO/PLL supply rails) |
| Quiescent current | 35 μA typ. at zero load (extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes) |
| Ripple rejection | 73 dB at 1 kHz (attenuates switching regulator coupling into analog subsystems) |
| Control logic | VCT(OFF) ≤ 0.4 V, VCT(ON) ≥ 1.0 V (compatible with 1.8 V GPIO without level-shifting) |
Pinout & Package
TCR2EE185,LM(CT is packaged in ESV (SOT-553), a 1.6 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.55 mm ultra-small surface-mount package weighing 3.0 mg (typ.). This footprint enables high-density PCB layouts in space-constrained wearables and IoT edge nodes.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input power supply | Accepts 1.5–5.5 V; requires ≥0.1 μF ceramic decoupling close to pin |
| VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers stable 1.85 V; must connect ≥1.0 μF ceramic capacitor directly to GND |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for VIN, VOUT, and CONTROL; low-impedance plane required |
| CONTROL | Enable/disable input | Active-high logic: ≥1.0 V enables regulator; ≤0.4 V disables with Auto-discharge active |
| NC | No connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating or grounded per layout best practice |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low dropout voltage | 230 mV typ. at 150 mA enables operation from marginal input sources like aging batteries |
| Fast load transient response | ±60 mV deviation with 1 mA ↔ 150 mA step ensures clean power during processor wake/sleep transitions |
| Auto-discharge function | Actively pulls VOUT to GND when CONTROL = LOW, eliminating need for external discharge FET in power sequencing |
| Ceramic capacitor compatibility | Stable with ≥0.1 μF CIN and ≥1.0 μF COUT (no ESR requirements), reducing BOM count and board area |
| High accuracy output | ±1.0% tolerance over temperature (−40°C to +85°C) supports tight-tolerance analog circuits without calibration |
| Pull-down on CONTROL pin | Internal resistor ensures safe default-OFF state, removing need for external pull-down resistor |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-noise, fast-transient LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TCS201850000000 | 200 mA, 1.85 V output, 250 mV dropout (150 mA), 50 μVrms noise, SOT-23-5 package | Larger footprint (2.9 mm × 2.8 mm), higher noise degrades RF sensitivity | Choose if SOT-23-5 is preferred for legacy layout compatibility |
| XC6218D185MR-G | 200 mA, 1.85 V output, 200 mV dropout (150 mA), 40 μVrms noise, SOT-25 package | Requires external pull-down on EN pin; no Auto-discharge function | Choose if lower dropout is prioritized and external discharge circuitry is acceptable |
Compared with TCR2EE185,LM(CT, the TCS201850000000 trades smaller noise margin and larger size for broader distributor availability, while the XC6218D185MR-G offers marginally better dropout but lacks integrated Auto-discharge-requiring additional components for safe power-down sequencing.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for TCR2EE185,LM(CT?
The absolute maximum input voltage for TCR2EE185,LM(CT is 6.0 V. However, the recommended operating range is 1.5 V to 5.5 V. Exceeding 5.5 V may trigger overvoltage stress not covered by warranty, and sustained operation above this limit risks junction overheating even within thermal derating guidelines. Always verify input source regulation before integrating TCR2EE185,LM(CT into your design.
Does TCR2EE185,LM(CT require an external pull-down resistor on the CONTROL pin?
No, TCR2EE185,LM(CT includes an internal pull-down resistor on the CONTROL pin, ensuring a defined LOW state when left unconnected. This eliminates the need for an external resistor and simplifies PCB layout. The device enters standby mode (IB(OFF) ≤ 1.0 μA) when CONTROL is ≤0.4 V, activating Auto-discharge to safely discharge VOUT.
Can TCR2EE185,LM(CT operate with a 0.47 μF output capacitor?
No-TCR2EE185,LM(CT requires a minimum output capacitance of 1.0 μF, as specified in its operating ranges. Using 0.47 μF violates the stability condition and may cause oscillation or excessive load transient deviation beyond the rated ±60 mV. Ceramic capacitors ≥1.0 μF with ESR <10 Ω are recommended for guaranteed performance.
What is the dropout voltage of TCR2EE185,LM(CT at 100 mA load?
The dropout voltage of TCR2EE185,LM(CT is 230 mV (typ.) at 150 mA. At 100 mA, the dropout is lower-approximately 200 mV (typ.), based on the monotonic trend shown in the Dropout Voltage vs. Output Current curves for 1.8 V ≤ VOUT < 2.5 V products. This enables reliable regulation from as low as 2.05 V input at 100 mA load.
Is TCR2EE185,LM(CT RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, TCR2EE185,LM(CT is RoHS compliant and lead-free, meeting EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements. Toshiba confirms this status in its official product documentation and environmental compliance reports. For full material declarations and exemption details, refer to Toshiba's official environmental portal or contact their sales support team directly.
