AP7362-HA-7

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

The AP7362-HA-7 is a 1.5A adjustable output voltage linear regulator with ultra-low dropout characteristics, manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It operates within an input voltage range of 2.2V to 5.5V and provides an adjustable output voltage from 0.6V to 5.0V. The device features a typical quiescent current of approximately 0.5mA during normal operation and reduces to 25nA in shutdown mode. It includes integrated current limit and thermal shutdown circuitry for protection. The component is housed in a U-DFN2030-8 package.

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

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'HA' corresponds to the U-DFN2030-8 package configuration as defined in the manufacturer's ordering guide. Confirm that the '-7' suffix indicates tape and reel packaging quantities consistent with distributor listings. Ensure compatibility with RoHS3 and REACH compliance requirements for your assembly process. Cross-reference the part number against the latest datasheet revision DS35058 Rev. 7 to confirm electrical specifications have not changed.

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

Select this component when high output current capability up to 1.5A is required alongside low dropout voltage characteristics. It is suitable for applications needing fast transient response to step changes in load. Consider the adjustable output feature if precise voltage levels outside standard fixed options are needed. Evaluate thermal dissipation requirements based on the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the U-DFN2030-8 package for your specific ambient temperature conditions.
