Product details
Overview
ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 from Analog Devices is a synchronous step-down DC-to-DC converter delivering up to 600 mA at a fixed 1.8 V output, operating from 2.7 V–5.5 V input with 3 MHz switching frequency and 95% peak efficiency. It integrates internal P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs, supports power save mode (PSM) for ultra-low quiescent current (0.01 µA in shutdown), and targets low-voltage core power in portable USB-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 datasheet, ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 pinout, ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 application, or ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 1.8 V output, LFCSP-8 package thermal performance (θJA = 54°C/W), valley-current-mode control architecture, MODE/EN logic interface, and compatibility with 1 µH inductors and 2.2 µF ceramic capacitors.
Technical Context
The ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 implements constant on-time (COT) current-mode control with voltage feed-forward, enabling pseudofixed 3 MHz operation independent of input/output voltage variations. Its valley-current sensing eliminates minimum on-time limitations, supporting stable regulation down to 1.8 V at high frequency.
It features dual operating modes: forced continuous conduction mode (CCM) when MODE = high (for low-noise, fixed-frequency operation), and power save mode (PSM) when MODE = low (for light-load efficiency optimization via pulse-skipping and DCM entry). Internal synchronous rectification replaces external diodes, reducing conduction losses and improving thermal efficiency.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.8 V ±2% over −40°C to +85°C - ensures stable core supply for submicron processors without external feedback resistors. |
| Max Output Current | 600 mA - sufficient for single-core ARM Cortex-M or DSP subsystems powered from 5 V or USB rails. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - compatible with Li-ion battery (fully charged), USB 2.0/3.0, and 3.3 V/5 V system rails. |
| Switching Frequency | Typical 3 MHz - enables use of compact 1 µH inductors and 2.2 µF ceramic output capacitors, minimizing board area. |
| Efficiency | Up to 95% at medium load - reduces thermal load in space-constrained portable enclosures. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.01 µA - extends battery life during system sleep states in always-on sensor nodes or wearables. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C threshold with 15°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload or poor PCB heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 is housed in an 8-lead, 3 mm × 3 mm LFCSP package with exposed pad thermally connected to PGND. The package supports high-density layouts and provides low thermal resistance (θJA = 54°C/W on JEDEC 4-layer board).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| MODE | Mode Control Input | Drives high for forced CCM (low-noise, fixed 3 MHz); drives low for PSM (light-load efficiency optimization). |
| EN | Enable Input | Active-high logic; pulls to GND to shut down IC, reducing input current to 0.01 µA - requires no pull-up resistor. |
| FB/OUT | Feedback / Output Sense | Fixed 1.8 V version: internally tied to output node; no external divider needed - simplifies layout and BOM. |
| AGND | Analog Ground | Reference for error amplifier and internal circuitry; must be connected to PGND at single point near exposed pad. |
| PGND | Power Ground | High-current return path for LX switch and input/output capacitors; connects directly to exposed pad. |
| LX | Switch Node | Drain of internal P-MOSFET and source of N-MOSFET; connects to inductor - requires short, low-inductance trace. |
| PVIN | Power Input (Switch) | Supplies high-side switch and synchronous rectifier; requires ≥2.2 µF ceramic bypass to PGND. |
| AVIN | Analog Input Supply | Supplies internal control circuitry; may be RC-filtered from PVIN or bypassed with 0.01 µF for >300 mA loads. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internal Synchronous Rectification | Eliminates external Schottky diode, reducing conduction loss and thermal footprint - P-MOSFET RDS(on) ≤ 600 mΩ, N-MOSFET RDS(on) ≤ 400 mΩ. |
| Automatic Power Save Mode (PSM) | Reduces switching frequency under light load (<100 mA typical), cutting quiescent current to ~70 µA and extending battery runtime. |
| Internal Soft Start | 250–800 µs ramp time prevents inrush current and output overshoot during power-up - no external capacitor required. |
| Valley Current Limit Protection | 1 A current limit with hiccup-mode recovery - safeguards against short-circuit or overload without latch-up. |
| Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) | 2.4 V turn-on threshold with 220 mV hysteresis - prevents erratic startup during brown-out conditions. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62231DRYT | Fixed 1.8 V output; 3 MHz switching; 600 mA rating; 2.05 V–6.0 V input range - wider VIN but higher UVLO (2.05 V). | Requires external soft-start capacitor; lacks MODE pin for CCM/PSM selection - less flexible light-load control. | Preferred where input may dip below 2.7 V; avoid if precise PSM/CCM mode switching is required. |
| RT8059NGQW | Fixed 1.8 V output; 3 MHz; 600 mA; 2.5 V–5.5 V input - tighter input range, lower quiescent current (22 µA in PSM). | No MODE pin; automatic mode transition only; smaller 2 mm × 2 mm QFN-6 package - fewer pins, no AGND/PGND separation. | Selected for ultra-compact designs where ground separation and manual mode control are non-critical. |
Compared with TPS62231DRYT and RT8059NGQW, ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 offers explicit MODE pin control for deterministic CCM/PSM selection, separate AGND/PGND for improved noise immunity, and guaranteed 0.01 µA shutdown - making it optimal for noise-sensitive, battery-critical portable systems requiring design flexibility.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 over temperature?
The ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 guarantees ±2% output voltage accuracy across the full operating temperature range of −40°C to +85°C. At 25°C, initial accuracy is tighter at ±1%, and load regulation contributes ≤0.5% deviation from no-load to full 600 mA. This stability is achieved through laser-trimmed internal feedback and valley-current-mode control, making ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 suitable for precision core supplies in processors and FPGAs.
Can the ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 operate from a 2.5 V input?
No, the ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 requires a minimum input voltage of 2.7 V per its absolute specifications and UVLO threshold of 2.2 V (rising). Operation below 2.7 V violates the validated input range and risks failure to regulate or enter undervoltage lockout. For 2.5 V input applications, consider alternative regulators such as the ADP2301 or TPS62130 with lower VIN minima.
How does the MODE pin affect efficiency and noise in the ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7?
When MODE = high, ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 operates in forced CCM at ~3 MHz, delivering low output ripple (<10 mVpp) but reduced light-load efficiency (~75% at 10 mA). When MODE = low, it enters PSM, skipping pulses to maintain regulation - achieving ~88% efficiency at 10 mA but increasing ripple amplitude and spectral content. Designers select MODE based on priority: low noise (CCM) or battery life (PSM).
Is an external soft-start capacitor required for the ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7?
No, the ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 integrates internal soft-start with a fixed 250–800 µs ramp time, eliminating the need for external components. This ensures controlled output voltage rise, prevents inrush current into downstream capacitance, and avoids output overshoot - all without adding BOM cost or layout area. The timing is factory-trimmed and temperature-compensated.
What thermal derating applies to the ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 at 600 mA continuous load?
At 600 mA and 3.6 V input, ADP2102YCPZ-1.8-R7 dissipates ~0.36 W. With θJA = 54°C/W, junction temperature rise is ~19.4°C above ambient. Assuming 85°C max ambient, TJ ≈ 104.4°C - within the 125°C absolute max. No derating is required on a standard 4-layer board with exposed pad soldered to solid ground plane; however, airflow or copper area reduction increases θJA and may necessitate current reduction.
