Product details
Overview
ADP1109AAN-12 from Analog Devices is a micropower fixed-output step-up DC-to-DC converter delivering 12 V at up to 60 mA from a 5 V input, operating at 120 kHz with 460 µA quiescent current and logic-controlled shutdown. It integrates an internal power transistor and 1.25 V reference, requiring only four external components for full operation in flash memory VPP generation and portable instrument power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the ADP1109AAN-12 datasheet, ADP1109AAN-12 pinout, ADP1109AAN-12 application, or ADP1109AAN-12 equivalent, this device is selected for low-input-voltage boost conversion where minimal quiescent current, fixed 12 V output, and DIP-8 packaging are critical - especially in battery-backed systems and handheld inventory computers requiring stable high-voltage rail generation.
Technical Context
The ADP1109AAN-12 uses a gated-oscillator architecture with internal 1.25 V comparator reference and hysteresis (8–12.5 mV) to regulate output without external compensation. Its oscillator operates at 120 kHz (±25 kHz), enabling use of small surface-mount inductors like 33 µH.
It features a built-in NPN power switch with saturation voltage ≤0.8 V at 500 mA, logic-level shutdown (VIH ≥2.0 V, VIL ≤0.8 V), and operates across 2 V to 9 V input range while maintaining 11.45–12.55 V output accuracy over temperature and load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 12.00 V ±4.6% (11.45–12.55 V); tightly regulated for flash memory VPP programming |
| Oscillator Frequency | 120 kHz ±25 kHz; enables compact 10–33 µH inductor selection and reduces EMI vs higher-frequency converters |
| Quiescent Current | 460 µA (typical, shutdown off); enables >100-hour standby in coin-cell-powered devices |
| Input Voltage Range | 2 V to 9 V; supports single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2 V), NiMH (2.4–3.6 V), and regulated 5 V logic rails |
| Switch Saturation Voltage | ≤0.8 V at 500 mA; limits conduction loss to <400 mW at full load, preserving efficiency in low-power boost stages |
| Duty Cycle | 57–77% (full load); adapts dynamically to input/output ratio, supporting wide VIN variation without instability |
| Shutdown Pin Threshold | VIL ≤0.8 V / VIH ≥2.0 V; compatible with standard CMOS/TTL logic for clean enable/disable control |
Pinout & Package
ADP1109AAN-12 is housed in an 8-lead plastic DIP (N-8) package with 0.3-inch width, through-hole mounting, and RoHS-compliant lead finish. Pin 1 is marked by a notch or dot; pins 2 and 6 are no-connect (NC).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VIN) | Input supply connection | Accepts 2–9 V unregulated input; must be decoupled locally to suppress switching noise |
| 2 (NC) | No connection | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no PCB trace or pad required |
| 3 (SW) | Collector node of internal NPN switch | Drives external inductor; carries pulsed current up to 1.2 A peak - requires short, low-inductance routing |
| 4 (PGND) | Power ground return | Separate from signal GND; routes high di/dt switch return current to minimize ground bounce |
| 5 (GND) | Signal/reference ground | Reference for FB comparator and internal circuitry; connects to PGND at single point near device |
| 6 (NC) | No connection | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no PCB trace or pad required |
| 7 (SHUTDOWN) | Logic enable/disable control | Pull low to disable oscillator and reduce current to 460 µA; pull high (>2.0 V) to operate |
| 8 (FB/SENSE) | Feedback input (fixed 12 V version) | Internally connected to output via laser-trimmed resistor; connect directly to VOUT for regulation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Gated-oscillator topology | Eliminates need for external frequency compensation components and simplifies loop stability design |
| Fixed 12 V output with internal resistive divider | Removes external feedback resistors - reduces BOM count and layout area versus adjustable versions |
| Logic-compatible shutdown | Enables system-level power sequencing and zero-current sleep mode without external level-shifting |
| Low 460 µA quiescent current | Extends battery life in always-on backup supplies and low-duty-cycle portable instruments |
| Integrated 1.25 V reference and comparator | Provides precise output regulation tolerance (±4.6%) without external voltage references or op amps |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-up DC-to-DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX680ESA+ | Charge-pump topology (no inductor); 12 V output at 100 mA; 120 kHz switching; 125 µA quiescent current | Limited to lower output currents and higher output impedance; unsuitable for >50 mA continuous loads | Select MAX680ESA+ only for ultra-low-quiescent, low-current (<20 mA), inductor-free designs where ripple tolerance is higher |
| TPS61040DRVR | Current-mode PWM controller; 12 V output at 280 mA; 500 kHz switching; 100 µA quiescent current; integrated 500 mA switch | Higher efficiency above 100 mA; requires external compensation; not pin-compatible | Choose TPS61040DRVR for higher output current, better light-load efficiency, or tighter output regulation - but expect PCB redesign |
Compared with ADP1109AAN-12, MAX680ESA+ offers lower quiescent current but lacks inductor-based current capability, while TPS61040DRVR delivers 4.7× more output current at higher frequency but demands full schematic and layout revision due to differing control architecture and pinout.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current supported by the ADP1109AAN-12?
The ADP1109AAN-12 delivers up to 60 mA at 12 V when supplied from a 5 V input, as confirmed in the Typical Application section and General Description. Output current capability decreases at lower input voltages (e.g., 35 mA from 2 V input) due to duty cycle and switch current limitations. The internal switch supports 1.2 A peak current, but practical continuous output is constrained by thermal dissipation in the DIP-8 package.
Does the ADP1109AAN-12 require external feedback resistors?
No, the ADP1109AAN-12 does not require external feedback resistors. As a fixed-output variant, it integrates laser-trimmed internal resistors that set the 12 V output. Per the Pin Function Descriptions, the FB/SENSE pin (Pin 8) must be connected directly to the output voltage node - no external divider is needed or permitted.
Can the ADP1109AAN-12 operate from a single alkaline cell?
Yes, the ADP1109AAN-12 operates from 2 V to 9 V input, making it compatible with a single alkaline cell (1.5 V fresh, ~0.9 V end-of-life). However, startup requires ≥2 V; operation below this threshold is not guaranteed. At 1.8 V input, output drops out - so practical use begins at ~2.2 V under load, aligning with typical alkaline discharge curves.
What is the purpose of separate PGND and GND pins on the ADP1109AAN-12?
The ADP1109AAN-12 separates PGND (Pin 4) and GND (Pin 5) to isolate high-di/dt power return paths from sensitive analog reference and comparator circuitry. PGND carries pulsed inductor return current, while GND serves as the quiet reference for the 1.25 V bandgap and FB comparator. Connecting them at a single point near the device minimizes ground noise coupling into regulation feedback.
Is the ADP1109AAN-12 pin-compatible with other ADP1109A variants?
Yes, all ADP1109A variants - including ADP1109AAN-3.3, ADP1109AAN-5, ADP1109AAN-12, and ADP1109AAN (adjustable) - share identical 8-lead DIP pinouts and electrical interfaces. Only the internal feedback network differs; the SENSE pin functions identically across variants (direct VOUT connection for fixed versions, external resistor divider for adjustable).
