The amount of the capacitance may be increased without limit. This input capacitor must be located as close as possible to the device to assure input stability and less noise. For PCB layout, a wide copper trace is required for both VIN and GND. A lower ESR capacitor allows the use of less capacitance, while higher ESR type requires more capacitance. Output Capacitor The output capacitor is required to stabilize and help transient response for LDO. The AP7333 is stable with very small ceramic output capacitors. The recommended capacitance is from 1F to 4.7F, Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) is from 10m to 200m, and temperature characteristic is X7R or X5R. Higher capacitance values help to improve load/line transient response. The output capacitance may be increased to keep low undershoot/overshoot. Place output capacitor as close as possible to OUT and GND pins, and keep the leads as short as possible. No Load Stability No minimum load is required to keep the device stable. The device will remain stable and regulated in no load condition. to cool down. When the junction temperature reduces to approximately +125C the output circuitry is enabled again. Depending on power dissipation, thermal resistance, and ambient temperature, the thermal protection circuit may cycle on and off. This cycling limits the heat dissipation of the regulator, protecting it from damage due to overheating. Ultra Fast Start-up After turned on, the AP7333 is able to provide full power in as little as tens of microseconds, typically 80s, without sacrificing low ground current. This feature will help load circuitry move in and out of standby mode in real time, eventually extend battery life for mobile phones and other portable devices. Fast Transient Response Fast transient response LDOs can also extend battery life. TDMA-based cell phone protocols such as Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) have a transmit/receive duty factor of only 12.5 percent, enabling power savings by putting much of the baseband circuitry into standby mode in between transmit cycles. In baseband circuits, the load often transitions virtually instantaneously from 100A to 100mA. To meet this load requirement, the LDO must react very quickly without a large voltage drop or overshoot -- a requirement that cannot be met with conventional, general-purpose LDOs. The AP7333's fast transient response from 0 to 300mA provides stable voltage supply for fast DSP and GSM chipset with fast changing load. Current Limit Protection When output current at OUT pin is higher than current limit threshold, the current limit protection will be triggered and clamp the output current to approximately 600mA to prevent over-current and to protect the regulator from damage due to overheating. Small Overshoot and Undershoot The AP7333 has small and controlled overshoot and undershoot in load and line transitions. This helps to protect supplied circuit from damage and operation error caused by glitches. This feature also permits the usage of small value output decoupling capacitor with AP7333. Short Circuit Protection When OUT pin is short-circuit to GND or OUT pin voltage is less than 200mV, short circuit protection will be triggered and clamp the output current to approximately 100mA. This feature protects the regulator from over-current and damage due to overheating. The AP7333, consuming only around 65A for all input range and output loading, provides great power saving in portable and low power applications. Wide Output Options Thermal Shutdown Protection Thermal protection disables the output when the junction temperature rises to approximately +140C, allowing the device AP7333 Rev. 2 Low Quiescent Current The AP7333, with multiples of fixed output voltage options, provides a versatile LDO solution for many portable applications. 9 of 12 www.diodes.com NOVEMBER 2009 (c) Diodes Incorporated AP7333 300mA, Low Quiescent Current, Fast Transient Low Dropout Linear Regulator Marking Information (1) SOT23 and SOT23R ( Top View ) 3 XX Y W X 1 AP7333 Rev. 2 2 XX : Identification code Y : Year 0~9 W : Week : A~Z : 1~26 week; a~z : 27~52 week; z represents 52 and 53 week X : A~Z : Green Device Package Identification Code AP7333-10SA SOT23 JR AP7333-12SA SOT23 JS AP7333-15SA SOT23 JT AP7333-18SA SOT23 JU AP7333-20SA SOT23 JV AP7333-25SA SOT23 JW AP7333-28SA SOT23 JX AP7333-30SA SOT23 JY AP7333-33SA SOT23 JZ AP7333-10SR SOT23R RA AP7333-12SR SOT23R RB AP7333-15SR SOT23R RC AP7333-18SR SOT23R RD AP7333-20SR SOT23R RE AP7333-25SR SOT23R RF AP7333-28SR SOT23R RG AP7333-30SR SOT23R RH AP7333-33SR SOT23R RJ 10 of 12 www.diodes.com NOVEMBER 2009 (c) Diodes Incorporated AP7333 300mA, Low Quiescent Current, Fast Transient Low Dropout Linear Regulator Package Information (All Dimensions in mm) (1) Package Type: SOT23 and SOT23R AP7333 Rev. 2 11 of 12 www.diodes.com NOVEMBER 2009 (c) Diodes Incorporated AP7333 300mA, Low Quiescent Current, Fast Transient Low Dropout Linear Regulator IMPORTANT NOTICE DIODES INCORPORATED MAKES NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH REGARDS TO THIS DOCUMENT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE (AND THEIR EQUIVALENTS UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION).
