GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP3000 is a versatile step-up/step-down switching
regulator that operates from an input supply voltage of 2 V to
12 V in step-up mode and up to 30 V in step-down mode.
The ADP3000 operates in Pulse Frequency Mode (PFM) and
consumes only 500 µA, making it highly suitable for applica-
tions that require low quiescent current.
The ADP3000 can deliver an output current of 100 mA at
3 V from a 5 V input in step-down configuration and 180 mA at
3.3 V from a 2 V input in step-up configuration.
The auxiliary gain amplifier can be used as a low battery detector,
linear regulator undervoltage lockout or error amplifier.
The ADP3000 operates at 400 kHz switching frequency. This
allows the use of small external components (inductors and
capacitors), making the device very suitable for space constrained
designs.

NOTES
1
This specification guarantees that both the high and low trip point of the comparator fall within the 1.20 V to 1.30 V range.
2
The output voltage waveform will exhibit a sawtooth shape due to the comparator hysteresis. The output voltage on the fixed output versions will always be within the
specified range.

100 kΩ resistor connected between a 5 V source and the AO pin.

GND Ground.
AO Auxiliary Gain (GB) output. The open col-
lector can sink 300 µA. It can be left open
if not used.
SET SET Gain amplifier input. The amplifier’s
positive input is connected to SET pin and its
negative input is connected to 1.245 V. It can
be left open if not used.
FB/SENSE On the ADP3000 (adjustable) version, this pin
is connected to the comparator input. On the
ADP3000-3.3, ADP3000-5 and ADP3000-12,
the pin goes directly to the internal resistor
divider that sets the output voltage.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.
Although the ADP3000 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may
occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD
precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
