Product details
Overview
ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 from Analog Devices is a synchronous buck controller implementing constant on-time and valley current-mode control for high-efficiency DC/DC conversion. It supports 2.95 V to 20 V input, regulates down to 0.6 V output with ±1.0% reference accuracy, operates at 300 kHz, and features power saving mode (PSM) for light-load efficiency in telecom POL supplies.
For engineers reviewing the ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 datasheet, ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 pinout, ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 application, or ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 equivalent, key selection criteria include PSM capability, 300 kHz switching frequency, integrated bootstrap diode, valley current sensing without external resistor, and thermal shutdown at 155°C.
Technical Context
The ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 uses a pseudo-fixed-frequency constant on-time architecture combined with valley current-mode control to achieve fast transient response and stable regulation at low duty cycles. Its current-sense gain is resistor-programmable via the DRVL pin, enabling precise current-limit setting across varying MOSFET RDS(on) values.
It integrates an internal 5 V LDO (VREG) for gate driver biasing, includes precision enable logic with 245–330 mV threshold and 37 mV hysteresis, and supports startup into precharged loads via controlled soft-start (3.0 ms). The device drives all-N-channel power stages and embeds protection including hiccup-mode short-circuit response and thermal shutdown.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.95 V to 20 V - supports wide-input industrial and telecom rails without external regulators. |
| Switching Frequency | 300 kHz - balances efficiency, size, and EMI for mid-power POL applications. |
| Output Voltage Accuracy | ±1.0% at 0.6 V reference - ensures tight regulation for DSP/FPGA core supplies. |
| Power Saving Mode | Enabled - pulse-skipping operation improves light-load efficiency in burst-mode systems. |
| Integrated Bootstrap Diode | Yes - eliminates external Schottky diode, reducing BOM count and layout complexity. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 155°C with 15°C hysteresis - provides robust overtemperature protection without external circuitry. |
| Soft Start Time | 3.0 ms - limits inrush current and prevents reverse current during startup into precharged outputs. |
Pinout & Package
ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 is housed in a 10-lead LFCSP package (3 mm × 3 mm, 0.8 mm height) with exposed pad thermally connected to GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | High-side MOSFET drain connection | Primary input rail node; must be decoupled near IC with ≥22 µF ceramic capacitor. |
| COMP/EN | Error amplifier output / Enable input | Pull below 285 mV to disable; releases to enable with soft-start initiation. |
| FB | Feedback voltage sense node | Connects to resistor divider from VOUT; sets regulated output via 0.6 V internal reference. |
| GND | Analog ground reference | Reference for error amp, COMP, FB; separate from PGND to minimize noise coupling. |
| VREG | Internal 5 V LDO output | Bias supply for gate drivers; requires 1 µF to PGND + 0.22 µF to GND; not for external loading. |
| DRVL | Low-side gate driver output / current-sense gain select | Drives lower N-MOSFET; resistor from DRVL to PGND programs current-sense gain (e.g., 47 kΩ = 3 V/V). |
| PGND | Power ground return | Return path for low-side driver and MOSFET source; connects to power plane under exposed pad. |
| DRVH | High-side gate driver output | Drives upper N-MOSFET gate; sourced from BST node; rise/fall times ≤25 ns / ≤11 ns. |
| SW | Switch node | Connection between high- and low-side MOSFETs; ties to inductor and BST capacitor negative terminal. |
| BST | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Charged via internal diode from VREG; requires ceramic capacitor (e.g., 0.1 µF) to SW for high-side drive. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Valley current-mode control | Enables stable operation at very low duty cycles (e.g., 0.6 V out from 12 V in) without slope compensation. |
| No external current-sense resistor | Reduces power loss and board area by using MOSFET RDS(on) as current-sense element. |
| Resistor-programmable current-sense gain | Supports accurate current limiting across diverse MOSFET selections via DRVL-to-PGND resistor. |
| Start-up into precharged load | Prevents reverse current flow during soft start when output capacitor is already charged. |
| Integrated bootstrap diode | Eliminates need for external Schottky diode, simplifying layout and improving reliability. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADP1870ACPZ-0.3-R7 | Lacks power saving mode (PSM); fixed PWM operation only. | Suitable where light-load efficiency is secondary to consistent switching frequency and jitter performance. | Select when deterministic frequency behavior is required and PSM-induced frequency variation is unacceptable. |
| TPS54332DR | Fixed 3.5 V reference; no valley current sensing; requires external current-sense resistor. | Targeted at cost-sensitive industrial supplies where ±2% output accuracy suffices and 125°C operation is not mandatory. | Choose for simpler designs with lower thermal requirements and less stringent output accuracy needs. |
Compared with ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7, the ADP1870ACPZ-0.3-R7 trades PSM for deterministic frequency, while the TPS54332DR sacrifices valley current sensing and high-temp rating for lower BOM cost and simplified compensation.

FAQ
What is the switching frequency of the ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7?
The ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 is factory-configured for 300 kHz nominal switching frequency. This value is fixed per part number variant and remains stable across load and line conditions within ±10% tolerance, as verified in Figure 23 of the datasheet. The frequency is not user-adjustable via external components.
Does the ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 require an external current-sense resistor?
No, the ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 does not require an external current-sense resistor. It implements low-side MOSFET RDS(on)-based current sensing, with gain programmable via a resistor from DRVL to PGND. This eliminates power loss and PCB area associated with discrete sense resistors.
How does the power saving mode (PSM) operate in the ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7?
In PSM, the ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 skips switching pulses under light load to maintain output regulation while reducing switching losses. This occurs automatically when load current drops below the valley current limit threshold, improving efficiency at sub-100 mA loads without requiring external control signals.
What is the purpose of the VREG pin on the ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7?
The VREG pin on the ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 outputs a regulated 5 V supply derived from VIN, used internally to bias the gate drivers and analog circuitry. It must be bypassed with 1 µF to PGND and 0.22 µF to GND but must not be loaded externally, as it is not rated for external current draw.
Can the ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 start up into a precharged output?
Yes, the ADP1871ACPZ-0.3-R7 supports startup into a precharged output. Its soft-start circuitry actively monitors the FB pin during ramp-up and disables high-side drive until the output reaches regulation, preventing reverse current flow through the low-side MOSFET body diode.
