Product details
Overview
ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 from Analog Devices is a fixed-output 2.5 V, 800 mA synchronous buck regulator operating from 3.2 V to 15 V input, featuring <14 µA quiescent current in power-saving mode, 1.2 MHz/600 kHz selectable switching frequency, and ±1% initial output accuracy. It delivers high efficiency (>90%) in portable battery-powered systems requiring stable low-noise voltage regulation.
For engineers reviewing the ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 datasheet, ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 pinout, ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 application, or ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range compatibility (3.2–15 V), 2.5 V fixed output with tight initial tolerance, ultra-low IQ for extended battery life, and LFCSP-8 package thermal performance in space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 employs a proprietary high-speed current-mode PWM control architecture with internal compensation and soft-start, enabling excellent transient response and stability without external loop components. Its synchronous rectifier eliminates external diode losses, while 100% duty-cycle capability supports low-dropout operation near VIN.
Frequency selection is implemented via the FSEL pin (high = 1.2 MHz, low = 600 kHz) or external synchronization (400–800 kHz or 0.8–1.6 MHz range). The device operates in either forced PWM (low noise) or automatic PSM/PWM mode (high light-load efficiency), with precision enable thresholds and open-drain power-good monitoring.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.2 V to 15 V - supports multi-cell alkaline/NiMH, single/dual Li-ion, and industrial 5–12 V rails. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.5 V ±1% (initial) - eliminates external feedback resistors and ensures precise rail generation for ADC references or logic I/O. |
| Max Output Current | 800 mA - sufficient for powering microcontrollers, sensors, and RF front-ends in compact portable devices. |
| Quiescent Current | <14 µA in PSM mode - extends battery runtime in always-on, low-duty-cycle applications like AMR endpoints. |
| Switching Frequency | Selectable 600 kHz or 1.2 MHz - enables optimization of inductor size vs. efficiency and EMI profile. |
| Efficiency | >90% at 250 mA (VIN=7.2 V, VOUT=3.3 V) - confirmed across load and temperature; applies proportionally to 2.5 V output. |
| Shutdown Current | <1.2 µA - ensures minimal battery drain during system sleep or off-state. |
Pinout & Package
ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 uses an 8-lead, 3 mm × 3 mm × 0.75 mm LFCSP (QFN) package with exposed thermal pad electrically connected to PGND. The pad must be soldered to a PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 1) | Power Input | Primary DC input connection; accepts 3.2–15 V; requires local 10 µF ceramic decoupling. |
| FSEL (Pin 2) | Frequency Select | Logic-controlled selection: high = 1.2 MHz, low = 600 kHz; hysteresis prevents chatter. |
| EN (Pin 3) | Enable Input | Precision threshold (1.10–1.26 V high, 1.05–1.16 V low); enables/disables regulation with 70 µs delay. |
| SYNC (Pin 4) | Synchronization | Accepts external clock (400–1.6 MHz) or forces FPWM mode when held high; low enables auto PSM/PWM. |
| FB (Pin 5) | Feedback | Internally tied to 2.5 V output divider; not accessible in fixed-output variants - no external resistor required. |
| PG (Pin 6) | Power Good | Open-drain output asserting high when VOUT ≥ 92% of nominal (2.3 V); 20 µs rise/fall delay. |
| SW (Pin 7) | Switch Node | Connection to external inductor; carries high dv/dt switching waveform; requires tight layout and ground return. |
| PGND (Pin 8) | Power Ground | High-current return path for internal MOSFETs; must be connected directly to exposed pad and low-impedance ground plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | <14 µA in PSM mode enables >1-year battery life in 10 µA average-load IoT endpoints. |
| 100% duty cycle operation | Maintains regulation down to VOUT ≈ VIN − 0.3 V, critical for brownout resilience in Li-ion discharge profiles. |
| Integrated soft start | 350 µs controlled ramp prevents inrush current and input supply sag during power-up. |
| Internal compensation | Eliminates external compensation network, reducing BOM count and design validation effort. |
| Robust protection suite | Includes undervoltage lockout (UVLO: 3.19 V rise), thermal shutdown (150°C), short-circuit foldback, and overcurrent limiting. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62840DRVR | 2.5 V fixed, 1.8 µA IQ, 1.8–6.5 V input, 1 A output, 2.25 MHz switching - lower IQ but narrower input range. | Better suited for single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.5 V) or USB-powered devices; not viable for 12 V industrial inputs. | Select TPS62840DRVR only if input stays ≤6.5 V and sub-2 µA IQ is mandatory; ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 remains preferred for wide-input flexibility. |
| MAX17552ATC+ | Adjustable output (0.8–15 V), 800 mA, 4.5–40 V input, 2.2 MHz, 15 µA IQ - wider input but no fixed 2.5 V option. | Requires external feedback resistors; better for multi-rail systems needing programmability, not drop-in 2.5 V replacement. | Choose MAX17552ATC+ when adjustable output or >15 V input is needed; ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 offers simpler, optimized 2.5 V solution. |
Compared with TPS62840DRVR and MAX17552ATC+, the ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 uniquely balances ultra-low IQ (<14 µA), wide 3.2–15 V input, fixed 2.5 V accuracy, and proven thermal performance in LFCSP - making it optimal for battery-backed industrial and medical devices where input voltage variability and long shelf life are critical.

FAQ
What is the input voltage range supported by the ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7?
The ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 supports an input voltage range of 3.2 V to 15 V. This allows direct operation from multiple alkaline/NiMH cells, single or dual Li-ion batteries, and standard industrial 5 V, 9 V, or 12 V rails. Operation below 3.2 V triggers undervoltage lockout (UVLO) at 3.19 V rising threshold, protecting downstream circuitry from unstable regulation.
Does the ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 require external feedback resistors to set its output voltage?
No, the ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 does not require external feedback resistors. It is a fixed-output variant with an internally trimmed 2.5 V regulator, meaning the FB pin is pre-connected to the internal voltage divider. This eliminates component count, layout sensitivity, and tolerance stacking errors associated with external resistor networks.
How does the ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 manage efficiency at light loads?
The ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 automatically enters Power Saving Mode (PSM) under light loads, reducing switching frequency to maintain high efficiency. In this mode, quiescent current drops to <14 µA. When noise sensitivity is critical, the SYNC pin can force continuous PWM operation - trading efficiency for predictable spectral content.
What thermal performance can be expected from the ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 in a typical 4-layer PCB layout?
In a standard 4-layer JEDEC-compliant board (4 in × 3 in), the ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 exhibits θJA = 36.7°C/W and ΨJB = 17.2°C/W. With proper thermal pad soldering to a solid ground plane, it sustains 800 mA output continuously at +85°C ambient. Derating is recommended above 70°C ambient for full-load operation in enclosed environments.
Is the ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7 pin-compatible with other members of the ADP2370/ADP2371 family?
Yes, all ADP2370 and ADP2371 variants share identical 8-lead LFCSP packaging and pinout, including ADP2370ACPZ-2.5-R7. This allows direct substitution between fixed-output versions (e.g., -1.2-R7, -3.3-R7) and the adjustable ADP2370ACPZ-R7, provided external components match the target output voltage and load requirements.
