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

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'E' corresponds to the SOT223-3L package as defined in the manufacturer's ordering guide. Confirm that the '-13' suffix indicates tape and reel packaging quantity. Ensure the application environment stays within the specified ambient temperature range of -40°C to +85°C for guaranteed electrical characteristics.

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

Select this part when a fixed 1.2V rail is required with high current capability up to 1.5A. It is suitable for applications needing fast transient response and low quiescent current. Consider the SOT223 package for its thermal performance and pin configuration if space allows. Verify input voltage stability within the 2.2V to 5.5V window.

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Part Context

This component belongs to the AP7363 series of 1.5A low quiescent current linear regulators. The series offers both adjustable and fixed output versions. The AP7363-12E-13 specifically denotes the 1.2V fixed output variant in the SOT223 package with tape and reel packaging, manufactured by Diodes Incorporated.

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Replacement Considerations

Check for other AP7363 variants with different output voltages or packages if the 1.2V setting or SOT223 form factor does not match the design requirements. Cross-reference with other 1.5A LDOs only if pin compatibility and electrical specifications align perfectly.
