Product details
Overview
ADP1109AAN from Analog Devices is a micropower step-up DC-to-DC converter in 8-lead plastic DIP (N-8) package, delivering fixed 3.3 V output with ±5% regulation, 120 kHz oscillator frequency, 460 µA quiescent current in shutdown, and internal power switch rated for 1.2 A peak current. It operates from 2 V to 9 V input and supports logic-controlled shutdown for battery-powered portable instruments.
For engineers reviewing the ADP1109AAN datasheet, ADP1109AAN pinout, ADP1109AAN application, or ADP1109AAN equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range (2–9 V), fixed 3.3 V output tolerance (±5%), oscillator frequency stability over temperature, shutdown pin logic thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V), and compatibility with low-ESR tantalum or OS-CON output capacitors.
Technical Context
The ADP1109AAN implements a gated-oscillator architecture with an internal 1.25 V reference and comparator-based feedback loop. Its oscillator enables fixed-frequency operation at 120 kHz without external compensation components, while the internal NPN power switch eliminates need for external transistor drive circuitry.
Output voltage is set by laser-trimmed on-chip resistors specific to the -3.3 variant, connecting FB/SENSE directly to VOUT. Shutdown control disables the oscillator via TTL-compatible logic input, maintaining only 460 µA ground current during inactive state.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.30 V ±5% (guaranteed across 2–3 V input range; enables direct replacement of 3.3 V LDOs in space-constrained battery systems) |
| Oscillator Frequency | 120 kHz ±25% (enables use of compact 10–47 µH surface-mount inductors without EMI filtering overhead) |
| Quiescent Current | 460 µA (sets baseline system standby power; critical for >100-hour battery life in pagers and hand-held scanners) |
| Input Voltage Range | 2 V to 9 V (supports single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2 V), NiMH (1.2 V × 2), or regulated 5 V rail inputs) |
| Switch Saturation Voltage | 0.4–0.8 V at 500 mA (limits conduction loss to <400 mW at full load; defines minimum practical duty cycle) |
| Shutdown Thresholds | VIL = 0.8 V, VIH = 2.0 V (ensures reliable interface with 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller GPIO without level-shifting) |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +70°C (validated for commercial portable electronics environments, not extended industrial or automotive) |
Pinout & Package
ADP1109AAN is housed in an 8-lead plastic DIP (N-8) package with 0.300-inch body width and 0.100-inch lead pitch. Pin 1 is marked by a notch or dot; pins 2 and 6 are no-connect (NC) and must remain unconnected.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 1) | Input supply connection | Accepts 2–9 V unregulated source; requires local 22 µF low-ESR capacitor to suppress switching transients |
| NC (Pin 2) | No connection | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or grounded per PCB layout best practice |
| SW (Pin 3) | Collector of internal NPN switch | Drives external inductor; voltage swings up to 50 V; requires short, low-inductance trace routing |
| PGND (Pin 4) | Power ground return path | Carries high di/dt switching current; must be routed separately from signal GND to avoid noise coupling |
| GND (Pin 5) | Analog ground reference | Reference for internal comparator and reference; connects to clean analog ground plane |
| NC (Pin 6) | No connection | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or grounded per PCB layout best practice |
| SHUTDOWN (Pin 7) | Logic enable/disable control | Active-low input; pulls oscillator offline when ≤0.8 V; draws ≤20 µA at 0 V |
| FB/SENSE (Pin 8) | Feedback node for output regulation | Internally connected to 1.25 V comparator; tied directly to VOUT on ADP1109AAN-3.3 for fixed output |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Micropower shutdown mode | 460 µA ground current enables >1-year shelf life in battery-backed memory retention circuits |
| Fixed-output laser trimming | Eliminates external resistor network for 3.3 V version, reducing BOM count and layout area by 2–3 components |
| Gated-oscillator architecture | Removes need for external frequency compensation, simplifying design validation and reducing component count |
| Internal 1.25 V reference | Provides stable feedback threshold across temperature; enables predictable output tolerance without external calibration |
| TTL-compatible shutdown | Direct interface with microcontroller GPIO pins without pull-up resistors or level shifters |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-up DC-DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX630CPA+ | Fixed 5 V output only; 100 kHz oscillator; 1.5 mA quiescent current in shutdown | Lacks 3.3 V fixed option; higher ground current reduces battery life in ultra-low-power apps | Select MAX630CPA+ only if 5 V output suffices and 120 kHz switching is not required for inductor size constraints |
| TPS61200DRCT | Adjustable output (0.9–5.5 V); 1.2 MHz switching; 25 µA shutdown current; integrated synchronous rectifier | Requires external resistor divider; higher frequency demands smaller inductors but increases EMI sensitivity | Choose TPS61200DRCT for longer battery life and smaller solution size where adjustable output and layout space are priorities |
Compared with MAX630CPA+ and TPS61200DRCT, ADP1109AAN offers unique fixed 3.3 V output with lowest external component count among DIP-packaged boost converters, making it optimal for legacy through-hole designs and cost-sensitive portable instrumentation where 120 kHz operation balances inductor size and EMI.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed output voltage tolerance for ADP1109AAN across its operating input range?
The ADP1109AAN guarantees 3.30 V output with ±5% tolerance (3.13 V to 3.47 V) when input voltage is between 2 V and 3 V, as specified in the Rev. 0 datasheet under "OUTPUT VOLTAGE" conditions. This tolerance includes initial accuracy, line regulation, and load regulation effects across temperature and process variation - no additional external trimming is required for ADP1109AAN-3.3.
Can ADP1109AAN be used with a 2 V input source, and what is the minimum load it supports?
Yes, ADP1109AAN operates down to 2 V input as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Specifications tables. It supports no minimum load requirement - the device regulates correctly from zero load up to full rated output current. At light loads, the gated oscillator reduces switching frequency to maintain regulation while minimizing quiescent current.
How does the SHUTDOWN pin function on ADP1109AAN, and what are its voltage thresholds?
The SHUTDOWN pin on ADP1109AAN is active-low: applying ≤0.8 V (VIL) disables the oscillator and places the device in micropower shutdown mode drawing 460 µA. Applying ≥2.0 V (VIH) enables normal operation. Input current is ≤10 µA at 4 V and ≤20 µA at 0 V, allowing direct interface with microcontroller GPIO without external buffering.
What package type and lead finish does ADP1109AAN use, and is it RoHS-compliant?
ADP1109AAN uses an 8-lead plastic DIP (N-8) package with matte tin lead finish. While the Rev. 0 datasheet predates RoHS enforcement, Analog Devices confirms this part meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU requirements per their official product change notices - no lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, or PBDE substances exceed threshold limits.
Which external components are mandatory for basic ADP1109AAN operation in fixed 3.3 V mode?
Four mandatory external components are required: input capacitor (22 µF, 16 V low-ESR), power inductor (e.g., 33 µH, 1 A saturation), Schottky output diode (e.g., MBRS130T3), and output capacitor (22 µF, 16 V low-ESR). Unlike adjustable versions, ADP1109AAN-3.3 needs no feedback resistors - FB/SENSE connects directly to VOUT.
