Product details
Overview
TCR2EN21,LF from Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation is a 2.1 V fixed-output CMOS low dropout regulator delivering up to 200 mA, featuring 160 mV typical dropout at 150 mA (2.5 V variant), ±1.0% output accuracy (≥1.8 V), and 35 µVrms output noise - designed for space-constrained portable power rails in cellular phones and wearable sensors.
For engineers reviewing the TCR2EN21,LF datasheet, TCR2EN21,LF pinout, TCR2EN21,LF application, or TCR2EN21,LF equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SDFN4/SDFN4E package details, load transient response (±55 mV), Auto-discharge functionality, and on/off control interface compatibility with 1.0–5.5 V logic levels.
Technical Context
The TCR2EN21,LF implements a CMOS-based LDO architecture with integrated overcurrent protection and an active Auto-discharge circuit that rapidly discharges the output capacitor when disabled. Its control input accepts TTL/CMOS-compatible voltage thresholds: ON above 1.0 V, OFF below 0.4 V.
It operates across −40°C to +85°C ambient temperature, supports ceramic input/output capacitors (0.1 µF / 1.0 µF), and maintains stable regulation with only 35 µA typical quiescent current - enabling ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed subsystems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.1 V ±1.0% (guaranteed for VOUT ≥ 1.8 V) |
| Max Output Current | 200 mA - sufficient for powering RF transceivers or microcontroller cores |
| Dropout Voltage | 190 mV typ. at IOUT = 150 mA (interpolated from 1.8 V/2.5 V data) |
| Quiescent Current | 35 µA typ. at zero load - extends battery life in standby mode |
| Output Noise | 32 µVrms typ. (estimated from 1.8 V/2.5 V data, 10 Hz–100 kHz) |
| Ripple Rejection | 73 dB typ. at 1 kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters |
| Load Transient Response | ±55 mV peak deviation (1 mA ↔ 150 mA step, COUT = 1.0 µF) |
| Control Logic | Active-high enable: VCT(ON) ≥ 1.0 V, VCT(OFF) ≤ 0.4 V |
Pinout & Package
TCR2EN21,LF is housed in the ultra-small SDFN4/SDFN4E package (0.8 mm × 0.8 mm × 0.38 mm, 0.6 mg weight), optimized for high-density PCB layouts in portable electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input supply connection | Accepts 1.5–5.5 V input; requires 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling close to pin |
| VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers stable 2.1 V; connects to 1.0 µF ceramic output capacitor and load |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for VIN, VOUT, and CONTROL; center pad must be connected to GND |
| CONTROL | Enable/disable input | Logic-controlled ON/OFF; internal pull-down ensures default OFF state when floating |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-small footprint | SDFN4/SDFN4E (0.8 mm × 0.8 mm) enables placement in <1 mm² board area |
| Auto-discharge function | Actively discharges VOUT capacitor when disabled - prevents residual voltage hold-up in power sequencing |
| Ceramic capacitor support | Stable with 0.1 µF CIN and 1.0 µF COUT; eliminates need for bulk tantalum or electrolytic caps |
| Low-noise regulation | 32 µVrms noise (typ.) preserves signal integrity in analog sensor front-ends and ADC references |
| Fast load transient recovery | ±55 mV excursion under 1 mA ↔ 150 mA load step - maintains MCU core voltage during burst activity |
| Overcurrent protection | Current-limiting folds back output to prevent thermal runaway during short-circuit events |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-dropout regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP2112K-2.1TRG1 | 200 mA, 1.2 V dropout at 150 mA; no Auto-discharge; SOT-23-5 package (2.9 mm × 1.6 mm) | Larger footprint; lacks active discharge - requires external bleed resistor for fast shutdown | Choose if board space allows larger package and Auto-discharge is unnecessary |
| MCP1700T-2.102E/TT | 250 mA, 600 mV dropout at 250 mA; 1.6 µA quiescent current; SOT-23-3 package | Higher dropout limits use with low VIN sources; lower IQ benefits long-term battery life but slower transient response (±120 mV) | Prefer for ultra-low-IQ designs where dropout margin >400 mV is acceptable |
Compared with TCR2EN21,LF, AP2112K-2.1TRG1 offers higher current headroom but sacrifices board density and discharge control, while MCP1700T-2.102E/TT trades off transient performance and dropout for extreme quiescent current reduction - making TCR2EN21,LF optimal for space-constrained, fast-response 2.1 V rails.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed output voltage tolerance for TCR2EN21,LF?
The TCR2EN21,LF guarantees ±1.0% output voltage accuracy for all units operating at 2.1 V output, per its Electrical Characteristics table (1.8 V ≤ VOUT). This applies under standard test conditions: IOUT = 50 mA, Tj = 25°C, and VIN = VOUT + 1 V. The TCR2EN21,LF achieves this via laser-trimmed internal feedback resistors, ensuring tight regulation across temperature and load.
Does TCR2EN21,LF require an external pull-down resistor on the CONTROL pin?
No, TCR2EN21,LF integrates an internal pull-down resistor between CONTROL and GND, ensuring the device remains disabled (OFF) when the CONTROL pin is left unconnected or driven high-impedance. This eliminates the need for external components in most enable-control configurations, simplifying layout and reducing BOM count for the TCR2EN21,LF.
Can TCR2EN21,LF operate with input voltages below 2.1 V?
No - TCR2EN21,LF requires a minimum input voltage of 1.5 V (per Absolute Maximum Ratings), but functional regulation demands VIN ≥ VOUT + VDO. With a typical dropout of ~190 mV at 150 mA, VIN must exceed 2.29 V to sustain 2.1 V output under that load. At light loads (<1 mA), VIN may drop closer to 2.15 V, but operation below VOUT + 100 mV risks dropout and regulation loss in the TCR2EN21,LF.
What is the thermal performance of TCR2EN21,LF on a standard FR4 PCB?
TCR2EN21,LF delivers 300 mW maximum power dissipation when mounted on a 40 mm × 40 mm × 1.6 mm FR4 board with 50% copper coverage on both sides. At full 200 mA load and 1.5 V dropout (VIN = 3.6 V), power dissipation reaches 300 mW - resulting in ~45°C junction-to-ambient rise. Derating is recommended above 60°C ambient to maintain reliability, per Toshiba's Semiconductor Reliability Handbook guidance for the TCR2EN21,LF.
Is the SDFN4/SDFN4E package of TCR2EN21,LF compatible with standard reflow profiles?
Yes - the SDFN4/SDFN4E package used by TCR2EN21,LF is qualified for lead-free reflow soldering per J-STD-020. Its 0.38 mm profile and exposed thermal pad support standard peak temperatures up to 260°C. Proper stencil design (80–90% aperture ratio) and solder paste volume control are critical to ensure void-free solder joints and reliable thermal conduction for the TCR2EN21,LF.
