The AP7365 is a 600mA, adjustable and fixed output voltage, low
dropout linear regulator. The device included pass element, error
amplifier, band-gap, current limit and thermal shutdown circuitry.
The device is turned on when EN pin is set to logic high level.
The characteristics of low dropout voltage and low quiescent
current make it suitable for low power applications, for example,
battery powered devices. The typical quiescent current is
approximately 35μA. Built-in current-limit and thermal-shutdown
functions prevent IC from damage in fault conditions.
This device is available with adjustable output from 0.8V to 5.0V,
and fixed version with 0.8V, 1.0V, 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.0V, 2.5V,
2.8V, 3.0V, 3.3V and 3.9V outputs. Please contact your local sales
office for any other voltage options.
The AP7365 is available in SOT25, SOT89-3, SOT223, and
U-DFN2020-6 packages.

A 1µF ceramic capacitor is recommended between IN and
GND pins to decouple input power supply glitch and noise. 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 reduce noise. For PCB layout, a wide
copper trace is required for both IN and GND pins. A lower
ESR capacitor type allows the use of less capacitance, while
higher ESR type requires more capacitance.
Output Capacitor
The output capacitor is required to stabilize and improve the
transient response of the LDO. The AP7365 is stable with very
small ceramic output capacitors. Using a ceramic capacitor value
that is at least 1μF with ESR > 15mΩ on the output ensures
stability. Higher capacitance values help to improve line and load
transient response. The output capacitance may be increased to
keep low undershoot and overshoot. Output capacitor must be
placed as close as possible to OUT and GND pins.

Rearranging the equation will give the following that is used for
adjusting the output to a particular voltage:

To maintain the stability of the internal reference voltage, R
to be kept smaller than 80kΩ.
No Load Stability
Other than external resistor divider, no minimum load is required
to keep the device stable. The device will remain stable and
regulated in no load condition.
ON/OFF Input Operation
The AP7365 is turned on by setting the EN pin high, and is turned
off by pulling it low. If this feature is not used, the EN pin should
be tied to IN pin to keep the regulator output on at all time. To
ensure proper operation, the signal source used to drive the
EN pin must be able to swing above and below the specified
turn-on/off voltage thresholds listed in the Electrical
Characteristics section under V
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 1.4A to prevent over-current
and to protect the regulator from damage due to overheating.
Short Circuit Protection
When OUT pin is short-circuit to GND, short circuit protection will
be triggered and clamp the output current to approximately
240mA. This feature protects the regulator from over-current and
damage due to overheating.
Thermal Shutdown Protection
Thermal protection disables the output when the
V
OUT
junction temperature rises to approximately +145°C, allowing the
device to cool down. When the junction temperature reduces to
approximately +130°C 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
1uF
After enabled, the AP7365 is able to provide full power in as little
as hundreds of microseconds, typically 200µs, 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 LDO can 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 100µA 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 LDO.
The AP7365’s fast transient response from 0 to 600mA provides
stable voltage supply for fast DSP and GSM chipset with fast
changing load.
Low Quiescent Current
The AP7365, consuming only around 35µA for all input range,
provides great power saving in portable and low power
applications.

Power Dissipation
The device power dissipation and proper sizing of the thermal
plane that is connected to the thermal pad is critical to avoid
thermal shutdown and ensure reliable operation. Power
dissipation of the device depends on input voltage and load
conditions and can be calculated by:

on the maximum junction to ambient thermal resistance,
maximum ambient temperature, and maximum device junction
