Product details
Overview
ADP3000ARU-REEL from Analog Devices is a micropower step-up/step-down switching regulator in 14-lead TSSOP (RU-14) package, supporting input voltages from 2 V to 30 V and delivering up to 180 mA at 3.3 V in boost mode. It operates at 400 kHz with 500 µA shutdown quiescent current and integrates on-chip low-battery detection via auxiliary gain amplifier. Used in space-constrained portable power supplies such as palmtop computers and cellular telephones.
For engineers reviewing the ADP3000ARU-REEL datasheet, ADP3000ARU-REEL pinout, ADP3000ARU-REEL application, or ADP3000ARU-REEL equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-mode topology (boost/buck), user-adjustable current limit, fixed/adjustable output options, thermal performance in RU-14 package, and compatibility with Schottky diodes and low-ESR tantalum capacitors.
Technical Context
The ADP3000ARU-REEL implements pulse frequency modulation (PFM) control with a gated 400 kHz oscillator and internal 1.245 V reference. Its comparator-based feedback loop uses hysteresis for stability without external compensation. The device features separate SW1 (collector) and SW2 (emitter) terminals enabling both step-up and step-down configurations through external component routing.
It includes an uncommitted auxiliary gain block (AO/SET pins) configurable as low-battery detector, error amplifier, or linear post-regulator, with open-collector AO output sinking ≥300 µA. Current limiting is programmable via ILIM pin using external resistor, with typical trip point of 400 mA when 220 Ω is connected between ILIM and VIN.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2 V–12 V (step-up), 2 V–30 V (step-down); supports single-cell Li-ion to multi-cell battery inputs. |
| Switching Frequency | 350–450 kHz typ.; enables use of compact 4.7–33 µH inductors and low-ESR tantalum capacitors. |
| Quiescent Current | 500 µA in shutdown; critical for battery life in always-on portable systems. |
| Output Voltage Options | Adjustable (via FB pin) or fixed 3.3 V / 5 V / 12 V; ADP3000ARU-REEL is adjustable version. |
| Current Limit | Programmable up to 1.5 A; 400 mA default with 220 Ω resistor; protects external inductor and diode. |
| Thermal Resistance | 150°C/W (RU-14); requires minimal PCB copper area for 70°C ambient operation at full load. |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +70°C; validated across industrial temperature range with stable oscillator and bias currents. |
Pinout & Package
ADP3000ARU-REEL is housed in a 14-lead thin shrink small-outline package (TSSOP, RU-14) with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. Pin 1 marked by dot; pin 1–7 on top row left-to-right, pin 8–14 on bottom row right-to-left per JEDEC MS-012AA.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| ILIM | Current limit programming input | Connect to VIN for max current (1.5 A); add 220 Ω resistor to VIN for 400 mA limit - prevents inductor saturation and diode overstress. |
| VIN | Main power input | Supplies internal circuitry and powers switch; accepts 2–30 V depending on mode; must be decoupled with ≥33 µF low-ESR capacitor. |
| SW1 | Power transistor collector | In step-up: drives inductor; in step-down: connects to input rail; rated to 50 V - supports high-voltage buck applications. |
| SW2 | Power transistor emitter | In step-up: tied to GND; in step-down: drives inductor; must not go >0.5 V below GND - requires Schottky clamp if VOUT >6 V. |
| FB (SENSE) | Feedback input | Connects to resistor divider for adjustable output; on fixed versions, internally tied to laser-trimmed divider - ADP3000ARU-REEL uses external resistors. |
| GND | Analog/digital ground reference | Common return for all signals; tie to low-impedance PCB ground plane; connect exposed pad to GND for thermal relief. |
| SET | Auxiliary amplifier non-inverting input | Accepts voltage divider from VIN for low-battery detection; bias current ≤400 nA - use ≥33 kΩ resistors to minimize error. |
| AO | Auxiliary amplifier open-collector output | Sinks ≥300 µA; pull-up required for logic-level interface; used for system wake-up or shutdown signaling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-mode topology | Single IC supports both step-up (2–12 V in → 3.3/5/12 V out) and step-down (2–30 V in → adjustable or fixed lower Vout) - reduces BOM count in multi-rail portable designs. |
| 400 kHz high-frequency switching | Enables use of <10 µH inductors (e.g., Sumida CR43-100) and 33–220 µF tantalum caps (e.g., AVX TPS D107), shrinking total solution size by >40% vs. 100 kHz controllers. |
| On-chip low-battery detector | Configurable via SET/AO pins without external comparators - generates system interrupt when VIN drops below user-defined threshold (e.g., 2.5 V for Li-ion cutoff). |
| User-adjustable current limit | Resistor-programmable from ~200 mA to 1.5 A - matches inductor saturation rating and optimizes efficiency across load range without redesign. |
| Integrated 1.245 V reference | ±3% accuracy over temperature; feeds comparator and gain block - eliminates need for external reference in feedback and monitoring circuits. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output current achievable with ADP3000ARU-REEL in step-up mode?
The ADP3000ARU-REEL delivers 180 mA at 3.3 V from a 2 V input in step-up mode, as verified in Figure 27 of the datasheet. Output current scales with input voltage and efficiency; at 3 V input, it supports up to 250 mA with proper inductor (e.g., Sumida CR43-6R8) and Schottky diode (e.g., 1N5817). Thermal limits in RU-14 package constrain continuous current to ≤200 mA at 70°C ambient.
Can ADP3000ARU-REEL operate in step-down mode with a 12 V input to generate 5 V?
Yes, ADP3000ARU-REEL supports step-down operation from 12 V input to 5 V output, as demonstrated in Figure 32. It delivers 250 mA at 77% typical efficiency using a 10 µH inductor (Sumida CR43-100) and 1N5817 Schottky diode. Input voltage range for step-down is 2 V to 30 V, and the RU-14 package's 150°C/W thermal resistance ensures reliable operation with appropriate PCB copper area.
How is the current limit set on ADP3000ARU-REEL, and what resistor value yields 400 mA?
The current limit on ADP3000ARU-REEL is set by connecting a resistor between ILIM and VIN. A 220 Ω resistor yields a 400 mA limit, as specified in Table 1 and confirmed in Figure 13–15. This value is derived from the internal 80 Ω sense resistor and 0.6 V trip threshold. Lower resistor values increase current limit; omitting the resistor (tying ILIM to VIN) sets maximum limit at 1.5 A.
Does ADP3000ARU-REEL require external compensation components for stability?
No, ADP3000ARU-REEL does not require external compensation components. Its comparator-based control loop uses built-in hysteresis (8–12.5 mV) to ensure stability across all operating conditions, as stated in the General Description and Theory of Operation sections. This eliminates the need for phase-compensation networks, simplifying design and reducing component count.
What is the purpose of the AO and SET pins on ADP3000ARU-REEL, and how are they used in practice?
The AO (auxiliary output) and SET (auxiliary input) pins form an uncommitted gain block. SET accepts a voltage divider from VIN; when that voltage falls below the internal 1.245 V reference, AO sinks ≥300 µA to signal low battery. In practice, this is used for system shutdown or alert generation - e.g., configuring R1/R2 to trigger at 2.5 V for Li-ion protection, with optional hysteresis resistor RHYS to prevent chatter.
