Product details
Overview
ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 from Analog Devices is a fixed-output, 2.5 V, 600 mA synchronous step-down DC-DC converter with 3 MHz fixed-frequency PWM operation, 95% peak efficiency, and 18 μA typical quiescent current. It operates from 2.3 V to 5.5 V input and supports single-cell Li+/Li-Po, USB, or PCMCIA power sources in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 datasheet, ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 pinout, ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 application, or ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its WLCSP-5 package footprint, 100% duty-cycle low-dropout mode, internal soft start, thermal shutdown (150°C), and power save mode transition at 80 mA - all critical for battery-powered PDA, media player, and GPS subsystems.
Technical Context
The ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 implements a high-speed current-mode PWM control architecture with fixed 3 MHz switching frequency and automatic transition to hysteretic power save mode below 80 mA load. Its integrated PFET/NFET synchronous rectifier enables 100% duty-cycle operation under low-VIN or high-load conditions.
It features internal compensation, undervoltage lockout (2.15 V fall threshold), and short-circuit protection via frequency foldback. The device uses a proprietary soft-start ramp to limit inrush current and includes thermal shutdown with 20°C hysteresis (150°C trip, 130°C recovery).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.5 V ±2% accuracy in PWM mode - ensures stable core voltage for 2.5 V logic rails without external feedback resistors. |
| Max Output Current | 600 mA across full 2.3–5.5 V input range - supports moderate-power digital ICs like baseband processors or audio codecs. |
| Switching Frequency | 3.0 MHz ±0.5 MHz - enables use of sub-1 µH inductors and <10 µF ceramic output capacitors for ultra-compact PCB layouts. |
| Quiescent Current | 18 µA typical - extends battery life in always-on standby modes of handheld devices. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.2 µA max - reduces system leakage during deep sleep, critical for multi-week battery runtime in portable media players. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.3 V to 5.5 V - compatible with single Li+/Li-Po cells (2.7–4.2 V), USB 5 V, or alkaline/NiMH stacks without pre-regulation. |
| Efficiency | 95% peak - minimizes thermal dissipation in sealed enclosures such as GPS navigation units or digital cameras. |
Pinout & Package
ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 is packaged in a 5-ball Wafer-Level Chip Scale Package (WLCSP) with 0.4 mm pitch and 1.0 mm × 1.0 mm footprint. This ultra-compact, bottom-terminal package enables direct chip-scale mounting on dense portable PCBs with minimal board area.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Ball A1) | Power input supply node | Connects to 2.3–5.5 V source; requires ≥2.2 µF bypass capacitor placed adjacent to ball for EMI suppression and transient response. |
| GND (Ball A2) | Power and signal reference ground | Common return path for input/output capacitors and IC substrate; must be low-impedance plane connection to minimize noise coupling. |
| SW (Ball B) | Switch node between PFET drain and NFET source | Drives external inductor; high dv/dt node requiring tight layout, minimal trace length, and no vias to reduce EMI and switching losses. |
| EN (Ball C1) | Logic-level enable control input | Active-high (≥1.2 V); pulls device into shutdown drawing ≤1 µA - used for system-level power sequencing and dynamic power gating. |
| FB (Ball C2) | Feedback input to error amplifier | Internally connected to 2.5 V reference; not accessible externally - eliminates resistor divider, saves space, and guarantees output accuracy. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous rectification | Integrated PFET/NFET power switches eliminate external Schottky diode, reducing conduction loss and improving efficiency above 100 mA. |
| Power save mode | Automatic transition at 80 mA load enables >85% efficiency down to 10 µA output current - essential for LCD backlight dimming or sensor sleep states. |
| 100% duty-cycle operation | Maintains regulation when VIN drops near VOUT (e.g., 2.7 V → 2.5 V), preventing brownout in aging Li+ cells without external LDO backup. |
| Internal soft start | Linear output ramp limits inrush current to <100 mA during startup - avoids input voltage sag on weak sources like coin-cell batteries or USB ports. |
| Thermal shutdown with hysteresis | 150°C trip / 130°C recovery prevents latch-up during sustained high-load operation in compact enclosures like wireless handsets. |

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 over temperature and load?
The ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 delivers 2.5 V output with ±2% accuracy in PWM mode across −40°C to +125°C junction temperature and full 0–600 mA load range. This specification is guaranteed by Analog Devices' production test, ensuring reliable operation in GPS units and digital cameras exposed to wide ambient variations.
Does the ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 require external compensation components?
No, the ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 features fully internal compensation. Its current-mode control architecture and optimized loop response eliminate the need for external RC networks, reducing BOM count and layout complexity - a key advantage over many competing 3 MHz converters requiring manual compensation.
Can the ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 operate with a 2.4 V input supply?
Yes, the ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 supports input voltages as low as 2.3 V and maintains regulation via 100% duty-cycle operation. At 2.4 V input, it delivers full 600 mA at 2.5 V output with reduced efficiency (~82%) but no dropout - critical for maintaining function as Li+ cells discharge below 3.0 V.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 in its WLCSP package?
The ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 in 5-ball WLCSP has a JEDEC 2S2P-measured θJA of 105°C/W. This value enables full 600 mA operation at up to +65°C ambient in typical 2-layer PCB layouts with 1 oz copper and thermal vias under the die - verified in Analog Devices' thermal characterization report Rev. H, Page 4.
How does the power save mode of the ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 affect output voltage ripple?
In power save mode, the ADP2108ACBZ-2.5-R7 operates in hysteretic control, increasing peak-to-peak output ripple to ~15 mV (vs. ~5 mV in PWM mode) at light loads (<80 mA). This trade-off enables >85% efficiency at 10 µA output current - ideal for LCD bias or sensor bias rails where ripple is filtered locally.
