Product details
Overview
STEVAL-ISA109V1 from STMicroelectronics is an evaluation board for the STBB2 800 mA, 2.5 MHz dual-mode buck-boost DC-DC converter. It implements a complete power supply solution with adjustable or fixed output (2.9 V/3.4 V or 3.0 V/3.3 V), supports input range 2.4–5.5 V, delivers ±2% output voltage accuracy, and enables bypass mode with ≤5 µA quiescent current - designed for memory card and cellular phone power rails.
For engineers reviewing the STEVAL-ISA109V1 datasheet, STEVAL-ISA109V1 pinout, STEVAL-ISA109V1 application, or STEVAL-ISA109V1 equivalent, this page provides verified board-level specifications, supported IC configuration modes (auto/PWM/bypass), external component selection guidance (inductor, input/output capacitors), thermal layout notes, and direct reference to ST's official evaluation schematic and block diagram.
Technical Context
The STEVAL-ISA109V1 implements the STBB2 in Flip Chip 20-bump (2.1 × 1.8 mm) package, configured for both fixed-output (via VSEL pin) and adjustable-output (via FB resistor divider) operation. It validates dual-mode control logic: MODE pin selects auto (pulse-skipping + PWM) or forced PWM; BP pin enables battery-sparing bypass mode where internal P-channel switches directly connect VIN to VOUT.
Board-level design incorporates critical protection features confirmed in ST's documentation: undervoltage lockout (UVLO threshold 2.1–2.35 V), thermal shutdown (150 °C, 20 °C hysteresis), soft-start with proportional current limiting (400 mA initial limit), and short-circuit current limiting. Layout follows ST-recommended guidelines including split power/signal ground (PGND/GND), dedicated VINA/VINA1 decoupling, and optimized high-frequency switching node routing.

FAQ
What is the purpose of the VINA and VINA1 pins on the STEVAL-ISA109V1 board?
VINA supplies regulated voltage to the STBB2's control circuitry, isolating sensitive analog blocks from noisy power-switching paths. VINA1 connects internally to VIN via a 100 Ω resistor and requires a 1 µF capacitor to GND to stabilize the control-stage supply - a layout requirement validated in ST's application schematic and thermal performance testing.
Can the STEVAL-ISA109V1 be used to evaluate both fixed and adjustable output versions of the STBB2?
Yes - the board supports both configurations. For fixed-output variants (e.g., STBB2J29-R), VSEL is routed to enable selection between 2.9 V and 3.4 V; for adjustable versions (e.g., STBB2JAD-R), the FB pin accepts an external resistor divider, and VSEL is tied to VINA as specified in ST's datasheet Section 7.4.
How does bypass mode function on the STEVAL-ISA109V1, and what design benefit does it provide?
Bypass mode activates when EN = high and BP = high, closing internal P-channel switches to directly connect VIN to VOUT through the inductor. This eliminates switching losses and reduces quiescent current to ≤5 µA - extending battery life during idle or low-power states in cellular handsets and memory cards.
What external components are pre-installed and validated on the STEVAL-ISA109V1 board?
The board includes Murata GRM188R60J106M (10 µF, 0603) input/output capacitors, Murata LQH3NPN1R0NM0 (1.0 µH, 3×3×1.4 mm) inductor, and appropriate feedback resistors for fixed/adjustable modes - all selected per ST's Table 2 and validated in Figures 1–2 of the official datasheet for stability, transient response, and thermal performance.
