thermal resistance is higher. For correct operation up to 85°C
ambient temperature the total thermal resistance must not
exceed 100 K/W.

buck (PMOS1 and NMOS1 switching in antiphase) and boost
(NMOS2 and PMOS2 switching in antiphase) take place at each
period of the clock. This is aimed at maintaining the regulation
and keeping a minimal current ripple in the inductor to
guarantee good transient performances.
POWER SAVE MODE
When the SYNC pin is low, the ADP2503/ADP2504 can operate
in power save mode (PSM). In this mode, when the load current

the inrush current to less than 600 mA for a nominal output
capacitor of 20 F. Because the V

made larger.

SYNC pin stops switching, the regulator switching frequency
slides back to the internal oscillator frequency.
ENABLE
The device starts operation with soft start when the EN pin
is brought high. Pulling the EN pin low forces the device into
shutdown, with a typical shutdown current of 0.2 µA.
In this mode, the PMOS power switches are turned off, the
NMOS power switches are turned on, and the control circuitry
is not enabled. For proper operation, the EN pin must be
terminated and must not be left floating.

UNDERVOLTAGE LOCKOUT
The undervoltage lockout circuit prevents the device from operating incorrectly at low input voltages. It prevents the converter

and, therefore, prevents deep discharge of the battery supply.

THERMAL SHUTDOWN
When the junction temperature, TJ, exceeds 150°C typical,
the device goes into thermal shutdown. In this mode, the power
switches are turned off. The device resumes operation when the
junction temperature again falls below 125°C typical.
SHORT-CIRCUIT PROTECTION
When the nominal inductor peak current value of 1.5 A is
reached, the ADP2503/ADP2504 first switch off the NMOS2
transistor if it was active. If the current thereafter continues to
increase by an extra amount of 200 mA, the PMOS1 transistor
is also switched off. This operation is reversible when the short
circuit stops. It allows the inductor current ripple to be minimized close to 1.5 A and, thus, the controller to restore V
even if a high load current is maintained after the short circuit.

REVERSE CURRENT LIMIT
In case of a short circuit on V
expected, the inductor current becomes negative (reverse
current). The negative peak value is limited to 1.1 A by
deactivating the switch PMOS2.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
INDUCTOR SELECTION
The high 2.5 MHz switching frequency of the ADP2503/
ADP2504 allows for minimal output voltage ripple, while
minimizing inductor size and cost. Careful inductor selection
also optimizes efficiency and reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI). The selection of the inductor value determines
the inductor current ripple and loop dynamics.

A larger inductor value reduces the current ripple (and, therefore,
peak inductor current), but is physically larger in size with
increased dc resistance. Inductor values between 1 µH and
1.5 µH are usually suggested. The maximum inductor value
to ensure stability is 2.0 µH. For increased efficiency with the
ADP2504, it is suggested that a 1.5 µH inductor be used.
The inductor peak current is at the maximum in boost mode.
To determine the actual maximum inductor current in boost
mode, the input dc current should be estimated.

Ceramic multilayer inductors can be used with lower current
designs for a reduced overall solution size and dc resistance
(DCR). These are available in low profile packages. Care must
be taken because these derate quickly as the inductor value is
increased, especially at higher operating temperatures.
Ferrite core inductors have good core loss characteristics as well as
reasonable dc resistance. A shielded ferrite inductor reduces the
EMI generated by the inductor.
The output capacitor selection determines the output voltage
ripple, transient response, and the loop dynamics of the
ADP2503/ADP2504. The output voltage ripple for a given
output capacitor is given by

The maximum voltage overshoot, or undershoot, is inversely
proportional to the value of the output capacitor. To ensure
stability and excellent transient response, it is recommended
to use a minimum of 22 µF X5R 6.3 V or 2 × 10 µF X5R 6.3 V
capacitors at the output. The effective capacitance (includes
temperature and dc bias effects) needed for stability is 14 µF.
The ADP2503/ADP2504 require an input capacitor to filter
noise on the VIN pin, and provide the transient currents while
maintaining constant input and output voltage. A 10 µF X5R/
X7R ceramic capacitor rated for 6.3 V is the minimum recommended input capacitor. Increased input capacitance reduces
the amplitude of the switching frequency ripple on the battery.
Because of the dc bias characteristics of ceramic capacitors, a
0603, 6.3 V X5R/X7R, 10 µF ceramic capacitor is preferable.
Poor layout can affect ADP2503/ADP2504 performance, causing electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) performance, ground bounce, and voltage
losses. Poor layout can also affect regulation and stability. A good
layout is implemented using the following rules:
• Place the inductor, input capacitor, and output capacitor
close to the IC using short tracks. These components carry
high switching frequencies and large tracks act like antennas.
• Route the output voltage path away from the inductor and
SW node to minimize noise and magnetic interference.
• Maximize the size of ground metal on the component side
to help with thermal dissipation.
• Use a ground plane with several vias connecting to the
component side ground to further reduce noise interference
on sensitive circuit nodes.
