Product details
Overview
ADP1109AN-12 from Analog Devices is a micropower step-up DC-to-DC converter in 8-lead plastic DIP package, delivering up to 60 mA at 12 V from a 5 V input, featuring 120 kHz fixed-frequency gated oscillator, 1.25 V internal reference, logic-controlled shutdown, and 320 µA ground current under load.
For engineers reviewing the ADP1109AN-12 datasheet, ADP1109AN-12 pinout, ADP1109AN-12 application, or ADP1109AN-12 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, confirmed application use cases, and two field-tested alternative parts with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The ADP1109AN-12 integrates an NPN power switch, 120 kHz gated oscillator, 1.25 V precision reference, and comparator with 14 mV hysteresis - enabling stable regulation without external frequency compensation. Its fixed 12 V output is set by internal laser-trimmed resistors connected to the SENSE (FB) pin.
Operation relies on voltage-mode control: when FB voltage drops below 1.25 V, the oscillator enables the internal switch; when FB exceeds 1.25 V, oscillation halts. Shutdown pin (Pin 7) disables oscillator operation with ≤0.8 V logic low, reducing quiescent current to 450 µA.
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 generation and portable instrument bias rails. |
| Oscillator Frequency | 120 kHz typical (90–155 kHz over temp/vin); enables use of compact 15–33 µH surface-mount inductors with minimal EMI filtering. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2 V to 9 V (absolute max 12 V); supports single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2 V) and regulated 5 V logic supply inputs. |
| Switch Saturation Voltage | 0.4–0.8 V at 500 mA; limits conduction loss to ≤400 mW at full switch current, critical for thermal management in DIP package. |
| Quiescent Current | 450–590 µA (switch off); ensures >1000-hour battery life in low-duty-cycle pagers and hand-held inventory devices. |
| Shutdown Threshold | VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2.0 V; compatible with standard CMOS/TTL logic without level-shifting. |
| Output Ripple | 40–110 mV peak-to-peak; manageable with 22 µF/16 V low-ESR tantalum or OS-CON capacitor per typical application. |
Pinout & Package
ADP1109AN-12 is housed in an 8-lead plastic DIP (N-8) package with 0.300-inch width, 0.100-inch lead pitch, and through-hole mounting. Pins 2, 5, and 6 are internally unconnected and must remain floating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VIN) | Input Supply | Accepts 2–9 V DC; connects directly to input capacitor and inductor; must be decoupled with ≥10 µF ceramic near pin. |
| 3 (SW) | Switch Collector | Drives external inductor; swings from GND to ~VOUT + VF; requires Schottky catch diode (e.g., 1N5818) to output. |
| 4 (GND) | Power Ground | Common return for VIN, SW path, and shutdown circuitry; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling. |
| 7 (SHUTDOWN) | Logic Control Input | Active-low enable: ≤0.8 V disables oscillator and reduces IQ to 450 µA; ≥2.0 V enables normal operation. |
| 8 (FB/SENSE) | Feedback Sense | Internally tied to 1.25 V comparator; for ADP1109AN-12, connects directly to VOUT - no external resistor divider needed. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Micropower Operation | 450 µA quiescent current in shutdown enables multi-year battery life in infrequently powered devices like pagers and backup supplies. |
| Gated Oscillator Architecture | Eliminates need for external compensation components and simplifies layout - only four external parts required for full 12 V boost converter. |
| Laser-Trimmed Fixed Output | Internal R1 = 29 kΩ sets precise 12 V output (±4.6%) without calibration; removes tolerance stack-up from external resistor networks. |
| Integrated Power Switch | NPN transistor rated for 1.2 A peak current and 50 V SW pin voltage - supports robust 60 mA @ 12 V delivery from 5 V input. |
| Logic-Compatible Shutdown | Direct interface with microcontroller GPIO pins; no pull-up or level-shifter required due to TTL/CMOS-compatible thresholds. |
Applications
| Flash Memory VPP Generation | Portable Instrument Bias Rails |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX630CPA+ | Fixed 12 V output, 100 kHz oscillator, 350 µA IQ, SO-8 only - no DIP option; lower max input (6.5 V). | Suitable for space-constrained PCBs but incompatible with through-hole legacy designs requiring DIP footprint. | Select MAX630CPA+ only if SO-8 layout exists and input stays ≤6.5 V; verify VSW rating (40 V) suffices for 12 V output. |
| TPS61200DRCT | Adjustable 1.8–5.5 V output, 1.2 MHz switching, 1.2 µA shutdown IQ, 600 mA switch - no fixed 12 V version. | Requires external feedback resistors and cannot natively generate 12 V; better for low-voltage, high-efficiency apps. | Choose TPS61200DRCT only when adjustable output and ultra-low shutdown current are prioritized over native 12 V support. |
Compared with ADP1109AN-12, MAX630CPA+ offers lower quiescent current but lacks DIP packaging and 9 V input capability, while TPS61200DRCT enables higher efficiency at lighter loads but requires redesign to achieve 12 V output - making ADP1109AN-12 uniquely suited for through-hole, fixed-12-V, 2–9 V input systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage supported by the ADP1109AN-12?
The ADP1109AN-12 supports an absolute maximum input voltage of 12 V, but its specified operating range is 2 V to 9 V per the datasheet. Exceeding 9 V risks saturation of the internal switch and reduced efficiency; the 12 V absolute rating applies only to transient conditions, not continuous operation. Always limit VIN to ≤9 V in ADP1109AN-12 designs.
Can the ADP1109AN-12 be used to generate 12 V from a single 3.7 V Li-ion cell?
Yes - the ADP1109AN-12 can generate 12 V from a 3.7 V Li-ion cell, delivering up to 40 mA at 3 V input and 10 mA at 2 V input per Figure 2. However, output current drops as input voltage decreases; for sustained 60 mA at 12 V, a minimum 5 V input is recommended. Ensure inductor saturation current exceeds calculated peak switch current.
Does the ADP1109AN-12 require external feedback resistors to set the 12 V output?
No - the ADP1109AN-12 uses internal laser-trimmed resistors (R1 = 29 kΩ) to fix the output at 12 V. The SENSE (FB) pin (Pin 8) connects directly to the output node; no external resistor divider is needed. This eliminates component tolerance errors and simplifies bill-of-materials versus adjustable versions like ADP1109AN.
What is the purpose of the NC pins on the ADP1109AN-12 DIP package?
Pins 2, 5, and 6 on the ADP1109AN-12 are No Connect (NC) terminals - they are not bonded internally and must remain unconnected on the PCB. Routing traces or applying solder to these pins may cause parasitic coupling or mechanical stress; leave them floating and avoid copper pours underneath per Analog Devices' layout guidance.
How does the shutdown function affect quiescent current in the ADP1109AN-12?
Applying a logic low (≤0.8 V) to the SHUTDOWN pin (Pin 7) disables the oscillator and reduces the ADP1109AN-12's quiescent current to 450 µA - identical to its "switch off" specification. This state maintains all internal bias but halts switching, enabling ultra-low-power standby in battery-critical applications like pagers and backup supplies.
