Product details
Overview
TCR3DM33,RF from Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation is a 3.3 V fixed-output CMOS low-dropout regulator delivering up to 300 mA with 180 mV typical dropout (IOUT = 300 mA), 38 μVrms output noise, and inrush current protection - deployed in power rails for cellular phone baseband ICs and RF front-end modules.
For engineers reviewing the TCR3DM33,RF datasheet, TCR3DM33,RF pinout, TCR3DM33,RF application, or TCR3DM33,RF equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at full load, load transient response (±80 mV), ceramic capacitor compatibility (CIN/COUT = 1.0 μF), auto-discharge function, and DFN4E package thermal performance under 85°C ambient operation.
Technical Context
The TCR3DM33,RF integrates a CMOS pass transistor with internal inrush current limiting and an active auto-discharge circuit tied to the CONTROL pin. Its feedback loop is optimized for stability with 1.0 μF ceramic capacitors on both input and output.
It features over-current and over-temperature protection with thermal shutdown latching, plus a dedicated CONTROL pin that enables ON/OFF sequencing with 0.4 V maximum OFF threshold and 1.0 V minimum ON threshold - supporting system-level power management in multi-rail portable devices.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output voltage | Fixed 3.3 V ±1.0% (ensures stable core voltage for 3.3 V logic and RF ICs) |
| Max output current | 300 mA continuous (supports high-pulse current loads like GSM/GPRS transmitters) |
| Dropout voltage | 180 mV typ. at 300 mA (enables operation down to VIN = 3.48 V, extending battery runtime) |
| Output noise | 38 μVrms (10 Hz–100 kHz) (minimizes phase noise in RF synthesizers and ADC reference supplies) |
| Load transient response | ±80 mV max (1 mA ↔ 300 mA step, COUT = 1.0 μF) (maintains regulation during burst-mode RF transmission) |
| Ripple rejection | 70 dB typ. at 1 kHz (suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters) |
| Quiescent current | 68 μA typ. at 3.3 V (reduces standby power in always-on sensor or connectivity modules) |
Pinout & Package
TCR3DM33,RF uses the ultra-compact DFN4E package (1.0 mm × 1.0 mm × 0.58 mm, 1.3 mg), with exposed thermal pad connected to GND for enhanced heat dissipation in space-constrained PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input power supply | Accepts 1.75–5.5 V; requires 1.0 μF ceramic decoupling close to pin |
| VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers stable 3.3 V; connects directly to load with 1.0 μF ceramic output capacitor |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path; center thermal pad must be soldered to GND plane for thermal and EMI control |
| CONTROL | Enable/disable input | Active-high logic: ≥1.0 V = ON, ≤0.4 V = OFF; includes internal pull-down to GND |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Inrush current protection | Limits peak input current during startup to prevent voltage droop on shared supply rails |
| Auto-discharge function | Actively discharges VOUT via internal FET when CONTROL = LOW, enabling fast power-down sequencing |
| Ceramic capacitor support | Stable with 1.0 μF CIN and COUT (no ESR requirement), reducing board area vs. tantalum alternatives |
| Low thermal resistance | θJA ≈ 238 °C/W (on FR4 board), enabling 300 mA operation at 85°C ambient without derating |
| Precision output accuracy | ±1.0% over temperature (−40°C to +85°C), critical for analog sensor and RF biasing stability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Torex XC6210B332MR-G | Same 3.3 V output, 300 mA rating, but higher dropout (250 mV typ.), no auto-discharge | Lacks active discharge; unsuitable where fast VOUT decay is required for sequencing | Prefer TCR3DM33,RF when auto-discharge and lower dropout are needed for tight battery headroom |
| Rohm BD33IC0WEFJ-C | 3.3 V, 300 mA, 200 mV dropout, but requires 2.2 μF COUT and has no inrush protection | No integrated inrush limiting; external RC network needed for surge control | Choose TCR3DM33,RF for simplified design with built-in inrush protection and ceramic capacitor flexibility |
Compared with XC6210B332MR-G and BD33IC0WEFJ-C, the TCR3DM33,RF delivers superior system-level integration via inrush protection, auto-discharge, and guaranteed stability with 1.0 μF ceramics - reducing BOM count and layout complexity in space- and power-constrained portable designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for TCR3DM33,RF?
The TCR3DM33,RF supports a maximum input voltage of 6.0 V per absolute maximum ratings. However, for reliable operation across temperature and load, the recommended operating VIN range is 1.75 V to 5.5 V - ensuring proper dropout margin and thermal safety during 300 mA output conditions. Exceeding 5.5 V may trigger overvoltage stress not covered by functional specifications.
Does TCR3DM33,RF require an external resistor for the CONTROL pin?
No, the TCR3DM33,RF includes an internal pull-down resistor between CONTROL and GND, so no external resistor is needed for default OFF-state behavior. The CONTROL pin accepts standard CMOS logic levels: it turns ON when driven to ≥1.0 V and turns OFF when ≤0.4 V. This simplifies interface design with microcontrollers or PMIC sequencers.
Can TCR3DM33,RF operate with only 1.0 μF ceramic capacitors on input and output?
Yes, the TCR3DM33,RF is fully characterized and guaranteed stable with 1.0 μF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitors on both VIN and VOUT. Unlike many LDOs requiring specific ESR ranges, this device eliminates the need for tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors - reducing size, cost, and aging-related drift in portable applications.
How does the auto-discharge function work in TCR3DM33,RF?
When the CONTROL pin is pulled LOW (≤0.4 V), the TCR3DM33,RF activates an internal NMOS switch between VOUT and GND, discharging the output capacitor rapidly. This ensures VOUT falls to near-zero within microseconds, enabling precise power sequencing in multi-rail systems - a feature absent in most standard LDOs and critical for avoiding latch-up in downstream logic.
What is the thermal performance of TCR3DM33,RF on a standard FR4 PCB?
On a 40 mm × 40 mm FR4 board with 50% copper coverage on both sides, the TCR3DM33,RF achieves a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of approximately 238 °C/W. At 300 mA and 85°C ambient, junction temperature remains below 125°C - well within the 150°C absolute maximum - confirming suitability for sustained operation in thermally dense smartphone and wearable PCB layouts.
