ADP2138/ADP2139
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP2138 and ADP2139 are high efficiency, low quiescent
current, synchronous step-down dc-to-dc converters. The
ADP2139 has the additional feature of an internal discharge
switch. The total solution requires only three tiny external
components. When the MODE pin is set high, the buck
regulator operates in forced PWM mode, which provides low
peak-to-peak ripple for power supply noise sensitive loads at
the expense of light load efficiency. When the MODE pin is set
low, the buck regulator automatically switches operating modes,
depending on the load current level. At higher output loads, the
buck regulator operates in PWM mode. When the load current
falls below a predefined threshold, the regulator operates in power
save mode (PSM), improving light load efficiency.
The ADP2138/ADP2139 operate on input voltages of 2.3 V to
5.5 V, which allows for single lithium or lithium polymer cell,
multiple alkaline or NiMH cell, PCMCIA, USB, and other
standard power sources. The maximum load current of 800 mA
is achievable across the input voltage range.
The ADP2138/ADP2139 are available in fixed output voltages of
3.3 V, 3.0 V, 2.8 V, 2.5 V, 1.8 V, 1.5 V, 1.2 V, 1.0 V, and 0.8 V. All
versions include an internal power switch and synchronous rect-
ifier for minimal external part count and high efficiency. The
ADP2138/ADP2139 have internal soft start and they are internally
compensated. During logic controlled shutdown, the input is
disconnected from the output and the ADP2138/ADP2139
draw 0.2 μA (typical) from the input source.
Other key features include undervoltage lockout to prevent deep
battery discharge, and soft start to prevent input current over-
shoot at startup. The ADP2138/ADP2139 are available in a 6-ball
wafer level chip scale package (WLCSP).

Data Sheet
Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θ
JA
) of the package is
based on modeling and calculation using a 4-layer board. The
junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is highly dependent on
the application and board layout. In applications where high
maximum power dissipation exists, close attention to thermal
board design is required. The value of θ
JA
may vary, depending on
PCB material, layout, and environmental conditions. The specified
values of θ
JA
are based on a 4-layer, 4 in. × 3 in., circuit board. Refer
to JEDEC JESD 51-9 for detailed information pertaining to board
construction. For additional information, see
AN-617 Application

Ψ
JB
is the junction-to-board thermal characterization parameter
measured in units of °C/W. Ψ
JB
of the package is based on modeling
and calculation using a 4-layer board. The JESD51-12,
Guidelines
for Reporting and Using Package Thermal Information,
states that
thermal characterization parameters are not the same as thermal
resistances. Ψ
JB
measures the component power flowing through
multiple thermal paths rather than through a single path, which
is the procedure for measuring thermal resistance, θ
JB
. There-
fore, Ψ
JB
thermal paths include convection from the top of the
package as well as radiation from the package; factors that make
Ψ
JB
more useful in real-world applications than θ
JB
. Maximum
junction temperature (T

) is calculated from the board temperature
(T

) and power dissipation (P
D
) using the formula

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any
other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
THERMAL DATA
Absolute maximum ratings apply individually only, not in
combination.
ADP2138/ADP2139 can be damaged when the junction tempera-
ture limits are exceeded. Monitoring ambient temperature does
not guarantee that the junction temperature (T
J
) is within the
specified temperature limits. In applications with high power
dissipation and poor thermal resistance, the maximum ambient
temperature may need to be derated. In applications with mod-
erate power dissipation and low printed circuit board (PCB)
thermal resistance, the maximum ambient temperature can
exceed the maximum limit for as long as the junction temperature
is within specification limits. The junction temperature (T
J
) of
the device is dependent on the ambient temperature (T
A
), the
power dissipation of the device (P
D
), and the junction-to-ambient
thermal resistance of the package (θ
JA
). Maximum junction
temperature (T
J
) is calculated from the ambient temperature
(T
A
) and power dissipation (P
D
) using the formula

Ground. Connect the input and output capacitors to GND.
Buck Activation. To turn on the buck, set EN to high. To turn off the buck, set EN to low.
