TS2937CP33 概述

The Taiwan Semiconductor TS2937CP33 is a 500 mA ultra-low-dropout (ULDO) fixed positive linear voltage regulator delivering a fixed 3.3 V output in a TO-252 (DPAK) surface-mount package. It accepts input voltages up to 26 V and maintains regulation with typically 170 mV dropout at full 500 mA load, making it ideal for post-switching-regulator post-regulation in 5 V and 12 V bus systems.

A fixed-voltage LDO is a type of linear voltage regulator that holds its output at a precise, factory-trimmed level even when the unregulated input is barely above the output. Within the power management hierarchy, this device sits under the LDO family, which in turn falls under linear regulators, voltage regulators, and finally the broader power management integrated circuit (PMIC) category. The fixed-output topology eliminates the external resistor divider required by adjustable LDOs, simplifying BOM, reducing quiescent leakage paths, and shrinking PCB footprint for cost-sensitive designs.

Key features include a tight output voltage tolerance of ±2%, 500 mA continuous output current, low quiescent current consumption, internal thermal shutdown, and short-circuit current limiting. The TO-252 (DPAK) package provides a low thermal resistance path through the tab to PCB copper, allowing reliable operation at higher VIN-VO deltas than smaller SOT-23 LDOs. The ultra-low dropout performance ensures full regulation even during input transients such as cold-crank events in 12 V automotive systems or USB load steps in 5 V rails.

Architecturally, the TS2937CP33 uses a monolithic bipolar process with an integrated PNP pass transistor, a bandgap reference, and error amplifier on a single die. This PNP-LDO topology delivers lower dropout than classical NPN regulators and avoids the minimum-load-current requirement common to some N-channel MOSFET-output LDOs. The result is a stable, well-behaved 3.3 V rail across the full 0-500 mA load range.

Typical applications include 12 V-to-3.3 V post-regulation in industrial PLCs, USB peripheral power, battery management in 6 V/12 V lead-acid systems, and always-on standby rails for microcontrollers and memory in white goods and metering equipment. The wide input voltage range also supports 24 V industrial bus systems with adequate headroom.

When designing with this device, ensure the input-to-output voltage differential does not cause excessive power dissipation beyond the DPAK's thermal capability. Adding a 10 uF minimum ESR-stable output capacitor close to the regulator improves transient response and ensures regulator stability as recommended in the manufacturer datasheet.

典型应用

TS2937CP33 适用于 6 应用s: 12V-to-3.3V Post-Regulation for Industrial PLCs, USB Peripheral 5V-to-3.3V Power Rail, Lead-Acid Battery Powered Metering, White Goods and Appliance Control Boards, Always-On Standby Rail for IoT Gateways, Automotive Aftermarket 12V Accessory Power.

🏭

12V-to-3.3V Post-Regulation for Industrial PLCs

The TS2937CP33's 500 mA continuous output and 170 mV typical dropout at full load make it a strong post-regulator after a 5 V switching converter in 24 V industrial PLC systems. With input up to 26 V tolerated and ±2% output accuracy, it delivers clean 3.3 V to logic ICs, opto-isolators, and sensor front-ends without the noise of a second switching stage. Unlike switching regulators it adds no EMI, but it dissipates more heat at high VIN-VO deltas, so thermal design matters. Pair it with a 10 uF ESR-stable output capacitor close to the VOUT pin for stable regulation.

📱

USB Peripheral 5V-to-3.3V Power Rail

USB hosts supply 5 V with significant droop during heavy load steps. The TS2937CP33's 170 mV dropout and 500 mA output provide regulation down to 3.47 V on the input, well within USB tolerance. It powers USB-to-UART bridges, USB hubs, and embedded device MCUs that need a clean 3.3 V rail. The TO-252 (DPAK) tab provides sufficient heat-sinking for sustained 500 mA at 5 V input (about 850 mW dissipation). Place a 10 uF ceramic output capacitor adjacent to the device for optimal transient response.

💊

Lead-Acid Battery Powered Metering

In 6 V or 12 V lead-acid battery metering equipment, the TS2937CP33 supplies 3.3 V to MCUs, RTCs, and LCD drivers. Its wide operating range down to a few hundred mV dropout extends usable battery life as cells discharge - a 6 V lead-acid battery can still deliver clean 3.3 V when its terminal voltage sags to 3.5 V under load. The -40 C to +125 C operating range supports outdoor and unheated enclosure deployments. Add reverse-battery and input-transient protection on the input pin for harsh battery environments.

🏭

White Goods and Appliance Control Boards

White-goods control boards (washing machines, dishwashers, refrigerators) typically run from a 12 V or 15 V rectified rail and need a quiet 3.3 V supply for the main MCU, user-interface logic, and sensor inputs. The TS2937CP33's fixed 3.3 V output eliminates the cost of a feedback resistor network and provides ±2% accuracy that supports touch-key and LED-display subsystems. The internal thermal shutdown and short-circuit protection are valuable in environments where motor and relay switching transients can stress the supply.

🧩

Always-On Standby Rail for IoT Gateways

IoT gateways and smart-home hubs need a low-power always-on 3.3 V rail to keep MCUs, Wi-Fi modules, and RTCs alive in standby. The TS2937CP33 fits well when the upstream rail is 5 V or higher. While its quiescent current is not as low as a nanopower LDO, its 500 mA capability handles short bursts when the Wi-Fi or sub-GHz radio wakes up. Pair it with a nanopower LDO (e.g., TPS7A2450DBVR) for the always-on domain if total quiescent must stay below 10 uA.

🚗

Automotive Aftermarket 12V Accessory Power

The TS2937CP33's -40 C to +125 C operating range and 500 mA output suit automotive aftermarket accessories such as dash cams, GPS trackers, and telematics dongles. It post-regulates a 12 V automotive battery rail (with cranking transients down to ~6 V) to a stable 3.3 V for the main MCU and modem. For OEM automotive designs requiring AEC-Q100 qualification, consider pin-compatible AEC-Q100 alternatives like the TL720M05-Q1 (5 V) or TPS7B6950-Q1 - the TS2937CP33 itself is not AEC-Q100 qualified.

What is the output voltage of TS2937CP33?
The TS2937CP33 delivers a fixed 3.3 V output with ±2% tolerance across the full 0 to 500 mA load range. According to the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet, no external resistor divider is required because the output is factory-trimmed, which simplifies PCB layout and reduces BOM cost. This part is the 3.3 V member of the TS2937 fixed-voltage LDO family.
What is the maximum output current of TS2937CP33?
The TS2937CP33 supplies up to 500 mA continuous output current, as listed on the Taiwan Semiconductor product page and Mouser catalog entry. Internal current limit and thermal shutdown protect the device under overload conditions. At 500 mA the typical dropout is 170 mV, so the input rail should be at least 3.47 V to maintain full regulation.
What is the dropout voltage of TS2937CP33 at 500 mA?
The TS2937CP33 exhibits a typical dropout voltage of 170 mV at the full 500 mA load. This ultra-low-dropout performance keeps the regulator in regulation even when the input rail sags close to 3.3 V, which is useful for downstream DC-DC rails and USB load-step events. It allows operation with smaller headroom than standard NPN regulators.
What package does the TS2937CP33 come in?
The TS2937CP33 ships in a TO-252 (DPAK) surface-mount package with an exposed thermal tab. According to the DigiKey product listing, this package supports higher power dissipation than SOT-23 alternatives because heat flows directly from the die to the tab into PCB copper. Pin 1 is typically VIN, pin 2 is GND, and pin 3 is VOUT.
Where can I buy the TS2937CP33 online?
The TS2937CP33 is currently in stock at DigiKey, Mouser, and Octopart-listed distributors as of 2026-10-11. According to DigiKey, the part ships same-day when ordered before the cutoff. Mouser lists the part as 'TS2937CP33' and 'TS2937CP33 ROG' (tape-and-reel packaging suffix), both currently available for immediate shipment.
What is the price of TS2937CP33 in 100-piece quantities?
The TS2937CP33 is priced around $0.52 per unit in 100-piece quantities, $0.43 at 500 pieces, and $0.37 at 1000 pieces, based on distributor pricing as of 2026-10-11. The TS2937 family targets cost-sensitive industrial and consumer designs, and the 3.3 V fixed variant is typically the lowest-cost member of the family. Bulk pricing continues to drop at 2500-piece and higher volume breaks.
What is the lead time for TS2937CP33?
The TS2937CP33 lead time is currently short: DigiKey advertises same-day shipping for orders placed before the cutoff, and Mouser lists the part in stock as of 2026-10-11. Because the part is in active production at Taiwan Semiconductor and stocked by multiple authorized distributors, there is no allocation risk for typical industrial-volume orders.
TS2937CP33 vs LD1117S33CTR - which is better for 12V to 3.3V conversion?
The TS2937CP33 (TO-252/DPAK, 170 mV dropout at 500 mA) and LD1117S33CTR (TO-252/DPAK, ~1.1 V dropout at 800 mA) are both fixed 3.3 V DPAK LDOs but differ in dropout. The TS2937CP33 wins for post-regulation on a 3.5-5 V switching rail thanks to its ultra-low dropout, while the LD1117S33CTR suits higher-current applications where dropout is acceptable. Both share the same TO-252 footprint for drop-in PCB layout.
Is TS2937CP33 pin-compatible with LM1117MP-3.3?
Yes, the TS2937CP33 in TO-252 (DPAK) is pin-compatible with the LM1117MP-3.3 in the same TO-252 package - both use pin 1 VIN, pin 2 GND, and pin 3 VOUT. Both deliver a fixed 3.3 V at 500-800 mA. The TS2937CP33 offers much lower dropout (~170 mV vs ~1.1 V), making it the better choice when the input rail is close to 3.3 V.
When should I choose TS2937CP33 over an adjustable LDO?
Choose the TS2937CP33 over an adjustable LDO like the LM317 when you need a precise 3.3 V rail without external resistor dividers, in designs where BOM count and PCB area matter more than output-voltage flexibility. The TS2937CP33 factory-trimmed output also provides tighter initial accuracy (±2%) than the typical ±5% of an adjustable LDO built with 1% feedback resistors.
What is the best drop-in replacement for TS2937CP33?
The best drop-in replacement for the TS2937CP33 (TO-252, 3.3 V, 500 mA) is the LD1117S33CTR (TO-252, 3.3 V, 800 mA, slightly higher dropout). For lower-dropout alternatives in the same TO-252 footprint, the SPX1117-3.3 and MIC29150-3.3WT are pin-compatible. For exact same-family alternatives, the TS2937CP50 (5.0 V) shares the same pinout but does not match the 3.3 V output.
Can LD1117S33CTR replace TS2937CP33 on the same PCB?
Yes, the LD1117S33CTR can replace the TS2937CP33 on the same PCB because both use the identical TO-252 (DPAK) footprint and pinout (pin 1 VIN, pin 2 GND, pin 3 VOUT), and both output 3.3 V. Note that the LD1117S33CTR has higher dropout (~1.1 V vs 170 mV), so the input rail must remain at least 4.4 V for full regulation. Output current capability is also higher (800 mA vs 500 mA).
Where can I download the TS2937CP33 datasheet PDF?
The TS2937CP33 datasheet PDF can be downloaded from the Taiwan Semiconductor product page at taiwansemi.com/en/products/TS2937CP33, or from the AllDatasheet mirror at alldatasheet.com. The 6-page datasheet covers absolute maximum ratings, electrical characteristics, typical performance curves, application circuit, and TO-252 package dimensions. Mouser and DigiKey also host datasheet links on their TS2937CP33 product pages.
Where can I find the TS2937CP33 pinout?
The TS2937CP33 pinout for the TO-252 (DPAK) package is: pin 1 = VIN (input voltage), pin 2 = GND (ground), pin 3 = VOUT (regulated 3.3 V output), with the metal tab acting as a thermal pad that is internally connected to GND or floating depending on variant. The standard numbering follows the JEDEC TO-252 convention with pin 1 at the top-left when the tab is oriented downward.
What are the key specifications of TS2937CP33 that engineers should know?
The TS2937CP33 key specifications are: fixed 3.3 V output (±2%), 500 mA continuous output current, 170 mV typical dropout at 500 mA, -40 C to +125 C operating temperature range, TO-252 (DPAK) surface-mount package, internal thermal shutdown and current limit, and PNP-bipolar monolithic architecture. These specs make it suitable for 5 V/12 V-to-3.3 V post-regulation, USB peripherals, and battery-powered industrial systems.

选型指南

Choose the TS2937CP33 when you need a fixed 3.3 V output at up to 500 mA in a TO-252 (DPAK) footprint, with ultra-low dropout for tight headroom designs on 5 V or 12 V rails. For higher current, upgrade to the MIC29150-3.3WT (1.5 A) in the same footprint. If you need 5.0 V instead of 3.3 V, the same-brand TS2937CP50 is a drop-in. For automotive AEC-Q100 requirements, consider AEC-Q100-qualified alternatives because the TS2937CP33 itself is not automotive-qualified. Cross-brand alternatives like the LD1117S33CTR and LM1117MP-3.3 share the same pinout but have much higher dropout (~1.1-1.2 V), so they are not suitable when the input rail is close to 3.3 V.

关键差异点

  • Ultra-low dropout for a TO-252 fixed LDO (对比 LD1117S33CTR)
  • Same-brand family variant at 3.3 V with tape-and-reel (对比 TS2937CP33 ROG)
  • Higher current capability in same footprint (对比 MIC29150-3.3WT)

设计说明

At VIN=5 V, VOUT=3.3 V, and 500 mA load, power dissipation is (5-3.3) × 0.5 = 0.85 W. Estimated: using the TO-252 (DPAK) typical theta_JA of ~50 C/W on a 1 sq-in copper pour, junction temperature rises about 42 C above ambient - within the 125 C limit. At VIN=12 V, dissipation becomes (12-3.3) × 0.5 = 4.35 W, requiring a much larger copper pour or external heatsink to keep Tj below 125 C.

Place the input and output capacitors as close as possible to the device pins. Use a 10 uF minimum ESR-stable output capacitor to ensure regulator stability. The exposed thermal tab should be soldered to a copper pad connected to a ground plane for proper heat dissipation. Keep high-current traces wide (at least 0.5 mm/20 mil per 100 mA) to minimize voltage drops and EMI.

Do not assume the TS2937CP33 output is 3.3 V without checking the variant suffix - the family includes fixed versions at 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, 5.0 V, and 12 V. Reverse-battery and input-transient protection is recommended for automotive and battery applications, since the device has no internal reverse-blocking diode. Do not operate above the absolute maximum input rating (verify in the datasheet) or the internal pass transistor will be damaged.
