Product details
Overview
TCR2EE31,LM(CT from Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation is a 3.1 V fixed-output CMOS low dropout regulator delivering up to 200 mA with 150 mV typical dropout (at IOUT = 150 mA), 35 μVrms output noise, and ±60 mV load transient response (1 mA ⇔ 150 mA, COUT = 1.0 μF). It integrates on/off control, overcurrent protection, and auto-discharge for analog/RF power rails in portable instrumentation and sensor signal chains.
For engineers reviewing the TCR2EE31,LM(CT datasheet, TCR2EE31,LM(CT pinout, TCR2EE31,LM(CT application, or TCR2EE31,LM(CT equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 150 mA, output accuracy (±1.0 % for VOUT ≥ 1.8 V), quiescent current (35 μA typ.), ripple rejection (73 dB typ. at 1 kHz), and compatibility with 1.0 μF ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The TCR2EE31,LM(CT uses a CMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low quiescent current and fast load transient recovery without external compensation. Its internal control loop stabilizes output under rapid current steps while maintaining tight regulation across −40°C to +85°C ambient.
It features an active-low CONTROL pin with defined ON/OFF thresholds (VCT(ON) ≥ 1.0 V, VCT(OFF) ≤ 0.4 V), pull-down connection between CONTROL and GND, and auto-discharge functionality that rapidly discharges VOUT when disabled-critical for power sequencing in multi-rail systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output voltage | Fixed 3.1 V ±1.0 % (guaranteed for stable biasing of RF LNA stages and precision ADC references) |
| Dropout voltage | 150 mV typ. at 150 mA (enables operation from 3.25 V input when VOUT = 3.1 V) |
| Output noise | 35 μVrms typ. (10 Hz–100 kHz) - low enough to avoid degrading SNR in 16-bit SAR ADCs |
| Load transient response | ±60 mV max. step deviation (1 mA ⇔ 150 mA, COUT = 1.0 μF) - supports burst-mode digital loads |
| Quiescent current | 35 μA typ. at zero load - extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes |
| Ripple rejection | 73 dB typ. at 1 kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters |
| Operating temperature | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded applications |
Pinout & Package
TCR2EE31,LM(CT is packaged in ESV (SOT-553), a 1.6 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.55 mm ceramic package with 5 terminals and 3.0 mg typical weight, optimized for space-constrained portable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input supply connection | Accepts 1.5–5.5 V; requires ≥0.1 μF ceramic bypass capacitor close to pin |
| VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers 3.1 V ±1.0 %; stable with ≥1.0 μF ceramic capacitor (ESR < 10 Ω recommended) |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for VIN, VOUT, and CONTROL; must be low-impedance plane |
| CONTROL | Enable/disable input | Active-high logic: ≥1.0 V enables regulator; ≤0.4 V disables with auto-discharge activation |
| NC | No-connect terminal | Internally unconnected; must remain floating or grounded per layout best practices |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low dropout voltage | 150 mV typ. at 150 mA enables high-efficiency operation from single Li-ion or 3.3 V rail |
| Fast load transient response | ±60 mV deviation supports dynamic digital loads (e.g., BLE radio transmit bursts) without external compensation |
| Auto-discharge function | Actively discharges VOUT when CONTROL = LOW - eliminates hold-up time in power sequencing |
| Ceramic capacitor compatibility | Stable with 1.0 μF COUT (ESR < 10 Ω) - reduces BOM count and board area vs. tantalum alternatives |
| Overcurrent protection | Current-limiting foldback prevents thermal runaway during short-circuit events |
Applications
| Portable RF Transceivers | Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning |
|---|---|
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-noise LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TCS2031-3.1V | Higher dropout (220 mV @ 150 mA); 50 μVrms noise; SOT-23-5 package | Larger footprint; less suitable for ultra-thin wearables | Choose if higher PSRR (80 dB @ 1 kHz) is prioritized over size and quiescent current |
| TPS7A2031PDBVR | Lower quiescent current (6.5 μA); same 3.1 V output; 1.2 mm × 1.2 mm DFN package | No auto-discharge; requires external discharge circuit for sequencing | Prefer when ultra-low IQ dominates design, and sequencing is handled externally |
Compared with TCR2EE31,LM(CT, TCS2031-3.1V trades smaller transient response for higher PSRR, while TPS7A2031PDBVR achieves lower IQ but lacks integrated auto-discharge-making TCR2EE31,LM(CT) optimal for space-constrained, sequenced analog/RF systems needing fast transient immunity and controlled shutdown.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for TCR2EE31,LM(CT)?
The absolute maximum input voltage for TCR2EE31,LM(CT) is 6.0 V. However, the recommended operating range is 1.5 V to 5.5 V per the datasheet's Operating Ranges table. Exceeding 5.5 V risks permanent damage even if within absolute maximum ratings, and thermal derating must be applied above 85°C ambient.
Does TCR2EE31,LM(CT) require an external discharge resistor for VOUT?
No. TCR2EE31,LM(CT) includes an integrated auto-discharge function activated when the CONTROL pin is pulled low. This internally discharges the VOUT capacitor without external components, ensuring rapid, controlled power-down in sequenced systems.
Can TCR2EE31,LM(CT) operate stably with a 1.0 μF ceramic output capacitor?
Yes. TCR2EE31,LM(CT) is explicitly characterized and guaranteed stable with a 1.0 μF ceramic capacitor (ESR < 10 Ω) on VOUT. The datasheet confirms this in both Electrical Characteristics and Application Note sections, eliminating need for larger or higher-ESR alternatives.
What is the output voltage accuracy specification for TCR2EE31,LM(CT)?
TCR2EE31,LM(CT) guarantees output voltage accuracy of ±1.0 % over temperature (−40°C to +85°C) and load (1 mA to 150 mA), applicable because its 3.1 V output exceeds the 1.8 V threshold specified in the Electrical Characteristics table for this tolerance band.
Is TCR2EE31,LM(CT) pin-compatible with other TCR2EE series variants?
Yes. All TCR2EE series devices in the ESV (SOT-553) package-including TCR2EE31,LM(CT)-share identical pinout (VIN, VOUT, GND, CONTROL, NC), allowing drop-in replacement across output voltages from 1.0 V to 5.0 V without PCB revision.
