GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP2102 is a synchronous step-down dc-to-dc converter
that converts a 2.7 V to 5.5 V unregulated input voltage to a lower
regulated output voltage with up to 95% efficiency and 1%
accuracy. The low duty cycle capability of the ADP2102 is ideal for
USB applications or 5 V systems that power up submicron subvolt
processor cores. Its 3 MHz typical operating frequency and excel-
lent transient response allow the use of small, low cost 1 μH
inductors and 2.2 μF ceramic capacitors. At medium-to-high
load currents, it uses a current mode, pseudofixed frequency pulse-
width modulation to extend battery life. To ensure the longest
battery life in portable applications, the ADP2102 has a power save
mode (PSM) that reduces the switching frequency under light
load conditions to significantly reduce quiescent current.
The ADP2102 is available in both fixed and adjustable output
voltage options with 600 mA maximum output current. The preset
output voltage options voltage are 1.875 V, 1.8 V, 1.5 V, 1.375 V,
1.25 V, 1.2 V, 1.0 V, and 0.8 V. The adjustable voltage option is
available from 0.8 V to 3.3 V. The ADP2102 requires only three
external components and consumes 0.01 μA in shutdown mode.
The ADP2102 is available in an 8-lead LFCSP package and is
specified for the −40 °C to +85 °C temperature range.

The ADP2102 can be damaged when junction temperature limits are exceeded.
Monitoring ambient temperature does not guarantee that T
J
is within the
specified temperature limits. In applications where high power dissipation
and poor thermal resistance are present, the maximum ambient temperature
may have to be derated. In applications with moderate power dissipation
and low PCB thermal resistance, the maximum ambient temperature can
exceed the maximum limit 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 (PD),
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 (PD) using the formula
T
J
=
T
A
+ (θ
JA
×
PD).
Unless
otherwise specified, all other voltages are referenced to AGND.
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, attention to thermal board
design is required. The value of θ
JA
may vary, depending on PCB
material, layout, and environmental conditions. Specified value
of θ
JA
is based on a 4-layer, 4 in × 3 in, 2 1/2 oz copper board,
as per JEDEC standards. For more information, see Application
Note AN-772,
A Design and Manufacturing Guide for the Lead
Frame Chip Scale Package (LFCSP).

BOUNDARY CONDITION
Natural convection, 4-layer board, exposed pad soldered to PCB.
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.
