Product details
Overview
ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-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 operates from 3.25 V to 20 V input, delivers regulated output down to 0.6 V with ±1.0% reference accuracy, supports all-N-channel MOSFET power stages, and features 1.0 MHz switching frequency, integrated bootstrap diode, and thermal overload protection - used in DSP core power supplies and telecom server rails.
For engineers reviewing the ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 datasheet, ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 pinout, ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 application, or ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 1.0 MHz fixed-frequency operation, valley current sensing without external sense resistor, precision enable threshold (570–680 mV), soft-start programmability via external capacitor, and QSOP-16 package compatibility with high-density board layouts.
Technical Context
The ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 uses a valley current-mode architecture with pseudo-fixed frequency timing, enabling stable regulation at low duty cycles (down to ~45% max) and fast transient response. Its constant on-time control scheme eliminates need for loop compensation across wide input/output ranges while maintaining tight output voltage accuracy (±1.0% over −40°C to +125°C).
It integrates an internal 5 V LDO (VREG) with 300–415 mV dropout at 100 mA, drives high-side and low-side N-MOSFETs via dedicated DRVH/DRVL outputs with sub-20 ns rise/fall times, and implements hiccup-mode short-circuit protection with 6 ms current-limit timing when COMP reaches 2.4 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 1.0 MHz - enables compact magnetics and high ripple attenuation in space-constrained applications like server VRMs. |
| Input Voltage Range | 3.25 V to 20 V - supports wide-input industrial and telecom power buses including 5 V, 12 V, and 16.5 V rails. |
| Output Voltage Accuracy | ±1.0% at 25°C, ±1.2% over −40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable core voltage regulation for DSPs and FPGAs. |
| Reference Voltage | 0.600 V ±6 mV - sets minimum output voltage; allows precise scaling of feedback divider for 0.6 V to >7 V outputs. |
| Enable Threshold | 570–680 mV logic-high with 31 mV hysteresis - provides noise-immune startup control compatible with standard GPIOs. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 155°C with 15°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload or poor heatsinking in enclosed systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 1.1 mA - minimizes standby power loss in always-on subsystems without compromising startup speed. |
Pinout & Package
ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 is housed in a 16-lead QSOP package (4.4 mm × 9.9 mm, 1.0 mm height) with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. Pin pitch is 0.65 mm; RoHS-compliant and moisture-sensitive level 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | High-side input supply | Connects to drain of upper N-MOSFET; accepts up to 20 V with UVLO at 2.65 V rising edge. |
| COMP | Error amplifier output | Interface for Type II/III compensation network; clamped at 0.47 V (low) and 2.55 V (high) to limit excursion. |
| EN | Precision enable input | Active-high control with 570–680 mV threshold; hysteresis prevents chatter during marginal bias conditions. |
| FB | Feedback node | Non-inverting input tied to resistor divider; regulates output by comparing to 0.6 V internal reference. |
| BST | Bootstrap supply for high-side driver | Internal diode connects VREG to BST; requires external BST–SW capacitor for gate drive voltage boosting. |
| SW | Switch node | Connection point between upper and lower MOSFETs; carries high dv/dt switching waveform and must be minimized in layout. |
| DRVH | High-side gate driver output | Drives upper N-MOSFET gate with 2.25 Ω source / 0.7 Ω sink resistance and 25 ns rise time (CIN = 4.3 nF). |
| PGND | Power ground return | Low-impedance return path for lower MOSFET source and DRVL output; separate from analog GND to reduce noise coupling. |
| GND | Analog ground reference | Reference for FB, COMP, RES, SS, TRACK; must be isolated from PGND except at single-point star connection. |
| DRVL | Low-side gate driver output | Drives lower N-MOSFET gate with 1.6 Ω source / 0.7 Ω sink resistance and 18 ns rise time (CIN = 4.3 nF). |
| RES | Current-sense gain programming | External resistor to GND sets gain (2.7–26 V/V); enables accurate current limiting without sense resistor. |
| PGOOD | Open-drain power-good indicator | Sinks current when FB is out-of-regulation (>568 mV or <542 mV) or during thermal shutdown. |
| VREG | Internal 5 V bias regulator output | Supplies gate drivers and internal circuitry; bypassed with 1 µF to PGND and 0.1 µF to GND. |
| VREG_IN | LDO input | Tied directly to VREG pin; not externally connected - internal connection only. |
| SS | Soft-start timing input | Capacitor to GND programs ramp time (10 nF = 1 ms); prevents inrush current and enables reverse-current protection. |
| TRACK | Voltage tracking input | Allows synchronized startup with master rail; offset of 63 mV vs. FB enables precise sequencing in multi-rail systems. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No current-sense resistor required | Valley current sensing via RES pin resistor eliminates power loss and PCB area for shunt, improving efficiency in high-current designs. |
| Integrated bootstrap diode | Reduces external component count by embedding charge-pump diode between VREG and BST, simplifying high-side drive design. |
| Starts into precharged output | Soft-start circuitry actively monitors output voltage during startup, preventing reverse current flow when VOUT > target at power-on. |
| Resistor-programmable current limit | Single external resistor on RES pin configures current-sense gain (2.7–26 V/V), enabling precise overcurrent protection across load ranges. |
| Standalone precision enable input | EN pin operates independently of VREG status with tight 570–680 mV threshold and 31 mV hysteresis, supporting direct microcontroller control. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7?
The ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 has an absolute maximum VIN rating of +28 V, but its specified operational input voltage range is 3.25 V to 20 V for the -1.0 variant (per Table 1). Operation above 20 V risks violating functional specifications and may trigger undervoltage lockout recovery anomalies. Always observe the 20 V upper limit in normal use.
Does the ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 require an external current-sense resistor?
No, the ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 does not require an external current-sense resistor. It implements valley current sensing using the RES pin and an external resistor to GND, which programs the current-sense amplifier gain (2.7–26 V/V). This eliminates power loss and PCB area associated with shunt resistors while maintaining accurate overcurrent protection.
Can the ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 start up into a precharged output voltage?
Yes, the ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 supports startup into a precharged output. Its soft-start circuitry actively monitors the FB pin during power-up and disables gate drive until the output voltage falls below the target, preventing reverse current flow from the output capacitor into the controller. This behavior is confirmed in the General Description and Startup section of the datasheet.
What is the purpose of the TRACK pin on the ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7?
The TRACK pin on the ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 enables voltage tracking for coordinated power-up sequencing. When a master rail voltage is applied to TRACK, the ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 regulates its output to track that voltage with a fixed 63 mV offset relative to FB. This ensures controlled ramp rates and avoids bus contention in multi-rail systems such as FPGA or ASIC power domains.
Is the ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 pin-compatible with other members of the ADP1874/ADP1875 family?
Yes, the ADP1874ARQZ-1.0-R7 is pin-compatible with all ADP1874/ADP1875 variants in the 16-lead QSOP package, including ADP1874ARQZ-0.3-R7 and ADP1874ARQZ-0.6-R7. The only differences are factory-trimmed switching frequency (1.0 MHz vs. 300 kHz or 600 kHz) and minor VREG operating range adjustments - all pin functions, layout, and external circuitry remain identical.
