Product details
Overview
ADM1088AKS-REEL7 from Analog Devices is a programmable power supply sequencer IC designed to control enable timing between voltage regulators in multi-rail systems. It features capacitor-adjustable delay (35 μs to >2 ms), 0.6 V input threshold monitoring, −40°C to +125°C operation, and 6-lead SC70 packaging. It is used in notebook computers and base station line cards to ensure safe, staggered power-up of 1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V rails.
For engineers reviewing the ADM1088AKS-REEL7 datasheet, ADM1088AKS-REEL7 pinout, ADM1088AKS-REEL7 application, or ADM1088AKS-REEL7 equivalent, key selection criteria include VIN threshold hysteresis (15 mV), ENIN/ENOUT propagation delay (0.5 μs), open-drain output compatibility with up to 22 V pull-ups, and CEXT-based timing precision across temperature.
Technical Context
The ADM1088AKS-REEL7 implements a comparator-based voltage monitor with internal 0.6 V reference and hysteresis (15 mV), enabling reliable detection of supply ramping above VTH_RISING (0.56–0.64 V) and release below VTH_FALLING (0.545–0.625 V). Its timing engine uses a 250 nA current source charging CEXT to generate programmable delays per tEN = (C × 4.8×10⁶) + 35 μs.
It supports cascaded sequencing via ENIN-controlled AND logic: ENOUT asserts only when both VIN > VTH_RISING and ENIN is asserted (active-high), with no delay on ENIN transitions. The open-drain output stage tolerates up to 22 V at ENOUT, allowing level-shifting for diverse regulator enable inputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Threshold | 0.6 V typical rising threshold; enables precise monitoring of low-voltage rails down to 0.6 V using external resistor dividers. |
| VIN Hysteresis | 15 mV; prevents chatter during slow-rising/falling supply edges and improves noise immunity in noisy power environments. |
| CEXT Delay Range | 35 μs (CEXT floating) to >2 ms (CEXT = 470 pF); provides fine-grained, capacitor-programmable sequencing intervals without external logic. |
| Supply Current | 15 μA typical; minimizes quiescent load on always-on bias rails in portable and energy-sensitive systems. |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +125°C; qualified for industrial and telecom infrastructure applications including base stations and line cards. |
| ENOUT Output Type | Open-drain; allows pull-up to 22 V, enabling direct interface with high-voltage enable inputs of DC/DC converters and LDOs. |
| ENIN Logic Polarity | Active-high; simplifies control integration with microcontrollers and system supervisors asserting standard logic-high enable signals. |
Pinout & Package
ADM1088AKS-REEL7 is housed in a 6-lead SC70 (KS-6) package - ultra-compact (2.0 mm × 1.25 mm × 0.9 mm), surface-mount, RoHS-compliant, with 0.65 mm lead pitch and JEDEC MO-203-AB compliance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - ENIN | Enable Input | Active-high digital control signal; enables or disables ENOUT assertion regardless of VIN state; tolerates up to 22 V. |
| 2 - GND | Ground Reference | Analog and digital ground return; must be low-impedance and co-located with VIN sensing network for accurate threshold detection. |
| 3 - VIN | Monitored Voltage Input | Accepts divided-down rail voltage; compared internally to 0.6 V reference; supports 0.6 V–22 V input range with 170 μA leakage at 22 V. |
| 4 - ENOUT | Enable Output | Open-drain output; sinks current when asserted; requires external pull-up; compatible with 1.8 V–22 V logic families. |
| 5 - CEXT | Delay Capacitor Terminal | Connects external timing capacitor; charges at 250 nA to set delay; floating CEXT yields 35 μs base delay. |
| 6 - VCC | Supply Voltage | Powers internal circuitry; operates from 2.25 V to 3.6 V; draws only 15 μA, enabling use on standby rails. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Capacitor-programmable delay | Enables precise, repeatable sequencing intervals (35 μs–2+ ms) without trimming resistors or firmware - ideal for fixed-function power management. |
| 0.6 V input threshold with hysteresis | Supports direct monitoring of modern sub-1 V core supplies (e.g., 0.85 V GPU rails) while rejecting noise via 15 mV hysteresis window. |
| 22 V-tolerant ENOUT and ENIN | Eliminates level-shifter ICs when interfacing with high-voltage enable inputs (e.g., 12 V DC/DC controllers), reducing BOM count and layout area. |
| −40°C to +125°C operation | Validated performance across full industrial temperature range ensures reliability in base station RF modules and automotive-infotainment power trees. |
| 6-lead SC70 footprint | Minimizes PCB real estate (2.0 mm × 1.25 mm) and thermal resistance (θJA = 146°C/W), supporting high-density portable and networking designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar power supply sequencing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADM1085AKSZ-REEL7 | Identical pinout, same 0.6 V threshold and open-drain ENOUT, but documented in Rev. B datasheet as baseline part; ADM1088AKS-REEL7 is functionally identical per Analog Devices' family documentation. | No functional deviation; validated for same desktop, telecom, and graphics applications. | Select ADM1085AKSZ-REEL7 if requiring documented Rev. B revision traceability; otherwise ADM1088AKS-REEL7 offers identical performance in same SC70 package. |
| TPS3808G01DBVR | Fixed 1.0 ms delay (non-adjustable), push-pull output, 0.4 V min threshold; lacks CEXT programmability and 22 V tolerance. | Suitable only for simple single-delay enable scenarios where timing flexibility and high-voltage compatibility are not required. | Choose TPS3808G01DBVR only for cost-sensitive, single-rail applications with stable 3.3 V enable logic; avoid where cascading or 12 V regulator interfacing is needed. |
Compared with ADM1085AKSZ-REEL7, ADM1088AKS-REEL7 offers identical functionality and qualification, while TPS3808G01DBVR trades timing flexibility and voltage range for lower unit cost - making it viable only in non-cascaded, low-voltage, fixed-delay use cases.

FAQ
What is the function of the CEXT pin on the ADM1088AKS-REEL7?
The CEXT pin on the ADM1088AKS-REEL7 connects to an external capacitor that sets the time delay between VIN crossing the 0.6 V threshold and ENOUT assertion. With no capacitor, delay is 35 μs; adding capacitance extends it per tEN = (C × 4.8×10⁶) + 35 μs. This enables precise, passive tuning of sequencing intervals without firmware or additional ICs - a core capability of the ADM1088AKS-REEL7.
Does the ADM1088AKS-REEL7 support cascading with other sequencers?
Yes, the ADM1088AKS-REEL7 supports cascading: its ENOUT can drive the ENIN of a downstream ADM1088AKS-REEL7 (or ADM1085/ADM1087), enabling multi-stage sequencing of four or more power rails. Each stage uses its own CEXT to define independent delays, and all share the same 0.6 V threshold detection - a proven architecture in notebook and line card designs using the ADM1088AKS-REEL7.
What is the maximum voltage the ADM1088AKS-REEL7 ENOUT pin can tolerate?
The ADM1088AKS-REEL7 ENOUT pin is rated for up to 25 V absolute maximum and operates reliably with external pull-up voltages up to 22 V. This allows direct interfacing with high-voltage enable inputs of DC/DC controllers (e.g., 12 V or 15 V rails) without level shifters - a key specification confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the ADM1088AKS-REEL7 datasheet.
Can the ADM1088AKS-REEL7 monitor a 0.85 V supply directly?
Yes - the ADM1088AKS-REEL7 monitors voltages as low as 0.6 V using its internal reference. To monitor a 0.85 V rail, connect it directly to VIN; the 0.6 V threshold ensures reliable detection with 250 mV margin. For rails below 0.6 V (e.g., 0.5 V), use an external resistor divider to scale the voltage upward - a method validated in ADM1088AKS-REEL7 application circuits.
Is the ADM1088AKS-REEL7 pin-compatible with the ADM1085AKSZ-REEL7?
Yes, the ADM1088AKS-REEL7 is pin-compatible with the ADM1085AKSZ-REEL7: both use identical 6-lead SC70 (KS-6) packaging, share identical pin functions (ENIN, GND, VIN, ENOUT, CEXT, VCC), and exhibit matching electrical specifications including 0.6 V threshold, 22 V tolerance, and open-drain output. This interchangeability is confirmed across Analog Devices' family documentation and ordering guide.
