AP7361C-15E-13

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Overview

The AP7361C-15E-13 is a fixed-output linear regulator from Diodes Incorporated, providing a regulated 1.5V output at up to 1A load current. It operates within an input voltage range of 2.2V to 6.0V and features a typical dropout voltage of 340mV at full load. The device incorporates an enable pin for power control, maintains a low quiescent current of 60µA, and delivers high power supply rejection ratio performance. It includes built-in thermal shutdown and current limit protection, housed in a SOT223 surface-mount package.

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '13' corresponds to the required 13-inch tape and reel packaging configuration. Confirm that the SOT223 package variant aligns with your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the fixed 1.5V output specification matches the target rail voltage. Cross-reference the RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to your manufacturing process.

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Selection Notes

Select this component when a stable 1.5V rail is required with minimal ground current consumption. The wide input voltage tolerance supports direct battery operation. Verify that the expected power dissipation remains within the thermal limits of the SOT223 package under maximum ambient temperature conditions. Consider the enable pin requirement if system-level power sequencing is necessary.
