GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The bidirectional synchronization pin can be programmed at
a 60°, 90°, or 120° phase shift to provide for a stackable, multiphase power solution.
The ADP2325 can be configured to operate in pulse frequency
modulation (PFM) mode at a light load for higher efficiency or
in forced PWM mode for noise sensitive applications. External
compensation and soft start provide design flexibility.
The ADP2325 operates over the −40°C to +125°C junction
temperature range and is available in a 32-lead LFCSP_WQ
package.

OUTPUT CURRENT (A)

The switching frequency can be programmed from 250 kHz to
1.2 MHz, or it can be synchronized to an external clock to
minimize interference in multirail applications. The dual PWM
channels run 180° out of phase, thereby reducing input current
ripple as well as reducing the size of the input capacitor.
Independent enable inputs and power-good outputs provide
reliable power sequencing. To enhance system reliability, the device
includes undervoltage lockout (UVLO), overvoltage protection
(OVP), overcurrent protection, and thermal shutdown.
EFFICIENCY (%)
The ADP2325 is a full featured, dual output, step-down dc-to-dc
regulator based on a current mode architecture. The ADP2325
integrates two high-side power MOSFETs and two low-side drivers
for the external N-channel MOSFETs. The two pulse-width modulation (PWM) channels can be configured to deliver dual 5 A
outputs or a parallel-to-single 10 A output. The regulator operates
from input voltages of 4.5 V to 20 V, and the output voltage can
be as low as 0.6 V.

Description
Power-Good Output (Open Drain) for Channel 1. A pull-up resistor of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ is recommended.
Synchronization Configuration Input. The SCFG pin configures the SYNC pin as an input or an output. Connect
SCFG to INTVCC to configure SYNC as an output. Connecting a pull-down resistor to GND configures SYNC as an
input with various phase shift degrees.
Synchronization. This pin can be configured as an input or an output. When configured as an output, it provides a
clock at the switching frequency. When configured as an input, this pin accepts an external clock to which the
regulators are synchronized. The phase shift is configured by SCFG. Note that when SYNC is configured as an input,
the PFM mode is disabled and the device works in continuous conduction mode (CCM) only.
Analog Ground. Connect to the ground plane.
Internal 5 V Regulator Output. The IC control circuits are powered from this voltage. Place a 1 μF ceramic capacitor
between INTVCC and GND.
Connect a resistor between RT and GND to program the switching frequency from 250 kHz to 1.2 MHz.
Mode Selection. When this pin is connected to INTVCC, the PFM mode is disabled and the regulator works only in
CCM. When this pin is connected to ground, the PFM mode is enabled. If the low-side device is a diode, the MODE
pin must be connected to ground.
Power-Good Output (Open Drain) for Channel 2. A pull-up resistor of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ is recommended.
Feedback Voltage Sense Input for Channel 2. Connect FB2 to a resistor divider from the Channel 2 output voltage,
VOUT2. Connect FB2 to INTVCC for parallel applications.
Error Amplifier Output for Channel 2. Connect an RC network from COMP2 to GND. Connect COMP1 and COMP2
together for parallel applications.
Soft Start Control for Channel 2. To program the soft start time, connect a capacitor from SS2 to GND. For parallel
applications, SS2 remains open.
Tracking Input for Channel 2. To track a master voltage, connect this pin to a resistor divider from the master
voltage. If the tracking function is not used, connect TRK2 to INTVCC.
Enable Pin for Channel 2. An external resistor divider can be used to set the turn-on threshold. When not using the
enable pin, connect EN2 to PVIN2.
Power Input for Channel 2. Connect PVIN2 to the input power source, and connect a bypass capacitor between
PVIN2 and ground.
Switch Node for Channel 2.
Supply Rail for the Gate Drive of Channel 2. Place a 0.1 μF capacitor between SW2 and BST2.
Low-Side Gate Driver Output for Channel 2. Connect a resistor between DL2 and PGND to program the currentlimit threshold of Channel 2.
Low-Side Driver Supply Input. Connect VDRV to INTVCC. Place a 1 μF ceramic capacitor between the VDRV pin and PGND.
Driver Power Ground. Connect to the source of the synchronous N-channel MOSFET.
Low-Side Gate Driver Output for Channel 1. Connect a resistor between DL1 and PGND to program the currentlimit threshold of Channel 1.
Supply Rail for the Gate Drive of Channel 1. Place a 0.1 μF capacitor between SW1 and BST1.

ADP2325
Data Sheet
THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADP2325 is a full featured, dual output, step-down dc-to-dc
regulator based on a current mode architecture. It integrates two
high-side power MOSFETs and two low-side drivers for external
MOSFETs. The ADP2325 is designed for high performance
applications that require high efficiency and design flexibility.
PRECISION ENABLE/SHUTDOWN
The ADP2325 can operate with an input voltage from 4.5 V
to 20 V and can regulate the output voltage to as low as 0.6 V.
Additional features for flexible design include programmable
switching frequency, programmable soft start, external compensation, independent enable inputs, and power-good outputs.
When the voltage on the EN1 or EN2 pin exceeds 1.2 V (typical),
Channel 1 (per the EN1 pin) or Channel 2 (per the EN2 pin) is
enabled and the internal pull-down current source at the EN1
or EN2 pin is reduced to 1 μA, which allows the user to program
the UVLO lockout of the input voltage.
CONTROL SCHEME
When the voltage on the EN1 or EN2 pin drops below 1.1 V
(typical), Channel 1 or Channel 2 turns off. When EN1 and
EN2 are both below 1.1 V, all of the internal circuits turn off
and the device enters the shutdown mode.
The ADP2325 uses a fixed frequency, current mode PWM control
architecture during medium to full loads, but shifts to a power
save mode (PFM) at light loads when the PFM mode is enabled.
The power save mode reduces switching losses and boosts efficiency under light loads.
When operating in the fixed frequency PWM mode, the duty
cycle of the integrated N-channel MOSFET (referred to interchangeably as NFET or MOSFET) is adjusted, this, in turn,
regulates the output voltage. When the device operates in
power save mode, the switching frequency is adjusted to regu
late the output voltage.
PWM MODE
In PWM mode, the ADP2325 operates at a fixed frequency
set by an external resistor. At the start of each oscillator cycle, the
high-side NFET turns on, placing a positive voltage across the
inductor. The inductor current increases until the current sense
signal crosses the peak inductor current threshold, turning off the
high-side NFET and turning on the low-side NFET (diode). This
places a negative voltage across the inductor, causing a reduction in
the inductor current. The low-side NFET (diode) stays on for the
remainder of the cycle or until the inductor current reaches zero.
The ADP2325 has two independent enable pins (EN1 and
EN2), one for each channel. The ENx pin has an internal pulldown current source of 5 μA to provide a default turn-off whenever
an ENx pin is open.
SEPARATE INPUT VOLTAGES
The ADP2325 supports two separate input voltages. This means
that the PVIN1 and PVIN2 voltages can be connected to two
different supply voltages. In these types of applications, because
the PVIN1 voltage provides the power supply for the internal regulator and control circuitry, the PVIN1 voltage must be above the
UVLO voltage before the PVIN2 voltage begins to rise.
This feature allows for a cascading supply operation, as shown in
Figure 45 where PVIN2 is sourced from the Channel 1 output.
In this configuration, the Channel 1 output voltage needs to be high
enough to maintain Channel 2 in regulation, and the Channel 1
output voltage must be higher than the input voltage UVLO
threshold.

When the device enters the PFM mode, it monitors the FBx voltage
to regulate the output voltage. Because the high-side and lowside NFETs are turned off, the load current discharges the output
capacitor causing the output voltage to drop. When the FBx
voltage drops below 0.605 V, the device starts switching and the
output voltage increases as the output capacitor is charged by the
inductor current. When the FBx voltage exceeds 0.62 V, the device
turns off both the high-side and low-side NFETs until the FBx
voltage drops to 0.605 V. In the PFM mode, the output voltage
ripple is larger than the ripple in the PWM mode.

PFM MODE
To enable the PFM mode, pull the MODE pin to ground. When
the COMPx voltage is below the PFM threshold voltage, the
device enters the PFM mode.

INTERNAL REGULATOR (INTVCC)
The internal regulator provides a stable voltage supply for the
internal control circuits and a bias voltage for the low-side gate
drivers. It is recommended that a 1 μF ceramic capacitor be placed
between INTVCC and GND. The internal regulator also includes a
current-limit circuit for protection.
The internal regulator is active when either of the channels is
enabled. The PVIN1 pin provides power for the internal regulator,
which is used by both channels.

Data Sheet
ADP2325
The ADP2325 integrates the boot regulators to provide the gate
drive voltage for the high-side NFETs. The regulators generate
5 V bootstrap voltages between the BSTx and the SWx pins.
When the SYNC pin is configured as an input, the ADP2325 synchronizes to the external clock that is applied to the SYNC pin, and
the internal clock must be programmed lower than the external
clock. The phase shift can be programmed by the SCFG pin.
It is recommended that an X7R or X5R, 0.1 μF ceramic
capacitor be placed between the BSTx and the SWx pins.
When working in synchronization mode, the ADP2325 disables
the PFM mode and works only in the CCM mode.
LOW-SIDE DRIVER
SOFT START
The DLx pin provides the gate drive for the low-side N-channel
MOSFET. Internal circuitry monitors the gate driver signal to
ensure break-before-make switching to prevent crossconduction.
Use the SSx pins to program the soft start time. Place a capacitor
between SSx and GND; an internal current charges this capacitor
to establish the soft start ramp. The soft start time can be calculated
using the following equation:
BOOTSTRAP CIRCUITRY
The VDRV pin provides the power supply to the low-side drivers.
It is limited to a 5.5 V maximum input; placing a 1 μF ceramic
capacitor close to this pin is recommended.
OSCILLATOR
A resistor from RT to GND programs the switching frequency
according to the following equation:
fSW [kHz] =
0.6 V  CSS
I SS
where:
CSS is the soft start capacitance.
ISS is the soft start pull-up current (3.5 μA).
If the output voltage is precharged prior to power-up, the ADP2325
prevents the low-side MOSFET from turning on until the soft
start voltage exceeds the voltage on the FBx pin.
60 ,000
ROSC [kΩ]
A 200 kΩ resistor sets the frequency to 300 kHz, and a 100 kΩ
resistor sets the frequency to 600 kHz. Figure 46 shows the
typical relationship between fSW and ROSC.

During soft start, the ADP2325 uses frequency foldback to
prevent output current runaway. The switching frequency is
reduced according to the voltage present at the FBx pin, which
allows more time for the inductor to discharge. The correlation
between the switching frequency and the FBx pin voltage is listed
in Table 6.

When the SYNC pin is configured as an output, it generates a

frequency.
The ADP2325 uses a peak current-limit protection circuit to
prevent current runaway. Place a resistor between DLx and PGND
to program the peak current-limit value, as listed in Table 7.
The programmable peak current-limit threshold feature allows
for the use of a small size inductor for low current applications.

The ADP2325 uses hiccup mode for overcurrent protection.
When the peak inductor current reaches the current-limit
threshold, the high-side MOSFET turns off and the low-side
driver turns on until the next cycle while the overcurrent counter
is incremented.

Coincident Tracking
A common application is coincident tracking, which is shown in
Figure 48. Coincident tracking limits the slave output voltage to
be the same as the master voltage until it reaches regulation. To
enable coincident tracking, set RTRK_TOP = RTOP and RTRK_BOT = RBOT.
VMASTER
In some cases, the input voltage (PVIN) ramp rate is too slow
or the output capacitor is too large to support the set regulation
voltage during the soft start, causing the device to enter the
hiccup mode. To prevent such cases, use a resistor divider at the
ENx pin to program the UVLO of the input voltage or use a
longer soft start time.
VOLTAGE
The ADP2325 provides a negative current limit. When the low-side
FET voltage exceeds the negative current-limit threshold voltage
(50 mV typical), the low-side FET turns off immediately for the
remainder of this cycle. Both the high-side and low-side FETs
turn off until the next cycle.

TIME
Figure 48. Coincident Tracking
Ratiometric Tracking
In ratiometric tracking, the slave output voltage is limited to a fraction of the master voltage. In this application, the slave and master
voltages reach their final values at the same time (see Figure 49).
VOLTAGE TRACKING
VMASTER
The internal error amplifier includes three positive inputs: the
internal reference voltage, the soft start voltage, and the tracking
input voltage. The error amplifier regulates the feedback voltage
to the lowest of the three voltages. To track a master voltage,
connect the TRKx pin to a resistor divider from the master
voltage, as shown in Figure 47.

The ADP2325 has a tracking input, TRKx, that allows the output
voltage to track an external (master) voltage. Voltage tracking
allows power sequencing applicable for FPGAs, DSPs, and ASICs,
which may require a power sequence between the core and the I/O
voltages.
TRKx
10036-044
If the overcurrent counter reaches 10, or if the FBx pin voltage
falls to 0.2 V after the soft start, the device enters hiccup mode.
During this mode, the high-side MOSFET and low-side driver are
both turned off. The device remains in this mode for seven soft
start cycles and then attempts to restart from soft start. If the
current-limit fault is cleared, the device resumes normal
operation; otherwise, it reenters hiccup mode.
The ADP2325 supports a 2-phase parallel operation to provide
a single output of 10 A. To configure the ADP2325 as a 2-phase

Connect COMP1 to COMP2 and connect EN1 to EN2.
Use SS1 to set the soft start time and keep SS2 open.
During parallel operation, the voltages of PVIN1 and PVIN2
should be the same.

POWER GOOD
The power-good (PGOODx) pin is an active high, open-drain
output that indicates whether the regulator output voltage is
within regulation. Logic high indicates that the voltage at the
FBx pin (and, therefore, the output voltage) is above 90% of the
reference voltage. Logic low indicates that the voltage at the FBx
pin (and, therefore, the output voltage) is below 85% of the
reference voltage. There is a 16-cycle deglitch time between FBx
and PGOODx.
OVERVOLTAGE PROTECTION
The ADP2325 provides an OVP feature to protect the system
against an output shorting to a higher voltage supply or for
when a strong load transient occurs. If the feedback voltage
increases to 0.7 V, the internal high-side MOSFET and low-side
driver turn off until the voltage at the FBx pin is reduced to
0.63 V, at which time the ADP2325 resumes normal operation.
UNDERVOLTAGE LOCKOUT
The UVLO threshold is 4.2 V with 0.5 V hysteresis to prevent
power-on glitches on the device. When the PVIN1 or PVIN2
voltage rises above 4.2 V, Channel 1 or Channel 2 is enabled and the
soft start period initiates. When either PVIN1 or PVIN2 drops
below 3.7 V, it turns off Channel 1 or Channel 2, respectively.
THERMAL SHUTDOWN
In the event that the ADP2325 junction temperature exceeds
150°C, the thermal shutdown circuit turns off the regulator. A
15°C hysteresis is included so that the ADP2325 does not recover
from thermal shutdown until the on-chip temperature drops
below 135°C. Upon recovery, soft start initiates prior to normal
operation.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
INPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION
The input decoupling capacitor attenuates high frequency noise
on the input and acts as an energy reservoir. This capacitor should
be a ceramic capacitor in the range of 10 µF to 47 µF and must
be placed close to the PVINx pin. The loop composed of this
input capacitor, high-side NFET, and low-side NFET must be
kept as small as possible. The voltage rating of the input capacitor
must be greater than the maximum input voltage. Ensure that the
rms current rating of the input capacitor is larger than that
expressed in following equation:
IC
IN _rms
= I OUT × D × (1 − D )
OUTPUT VOLTAGE SETTING
The output voltage of the ADP2325 can be set by an external
resistor divider using the following equation:
 R
VOUT = 0.6 × 1 + TOP
 RBOT




The maximum output voltage for a given input voltage and
switching frequency is also limited by the minimum off time
and the maximum duty cycle. The minimum off time is typically
150 ns and the maximum duty is typically 90% in the ADP2325.
The maximum output voltage that is limited by the minimum off
time at a given input voltage and frequency can be calculated
using the following equation:
VOUT_MAX = VIN × (1 − tMIN_OFF × fSW) − (RDSON1 − RDSON2) ×
IOUT_MAX × (1 − tMIN_OFF × fSW) − (RDSON2 + RL) × IOUT_MAX
where:
VOUT_MAX is the maximum output voltage.
tMIN_OFF is the minimum off time.
IOUT_MAX is the maximum output current.
The maximum output voltage that is limited by the maximum
duty cycle at a given input voltage can be calculated using the
following equation:
VOUT_MAX = DMAX × VIN
where DMAX is the maximum duty cycle.
To limit output voltage accuracy degradation due to FBx pin
bias current (0.1 µA maximum) to less than 0.5% (maximum),
ensure that RBOT is less than 30 kΩ. Table 8 provides the recommended resistor divider for various output voltage options.
As the previous equations demonstrate, reducing the switching
frequency alleviates the minimum on time and minimum off time
limitation.

INDUCTOR SELECTION
VOLTAGE CONVERSION LIMITATIONS
The minimum output voltage for a given input voltage and
switching frequency is limited by the minimum on time. The
minimum on time of the ADP2325 is typically 130 ns. The
minimum output voltage in CCM mode at a given input voltage
and frequency can be calculated using the following equation:
The inductor value is determined by the operating frequency,
input voltage, output voltage, and inductor ripple current. Using
a small inductor provides faster transient response but degrades
efficiency due to larger inductor ripple current, whereas a large
inductor value provides smaller ripple current and better efficiency but results in a slower transient response. Thus, there is a
trade-off between the transient response and efficiency. As a
guideline, the inductor ripple current, ΔIL, is typically set to
one-third of the maximum load current. The inductor value can
be calculated by using the following equation:
VOUT_MIN = VIN × tMIN_ON × fSW − (RDSON1 − RDSON2) × IOUT_MIN ×
tMIN_ON × fSW − (RDSON2 + RL) × IOUT_MIN
where:
VOUT_MIN is the minimum output voltage.
tMIN_ON is the minimum on time.
IOUT_MIN is the minimum output current.
fSW is the switching frequency.
RDSON1 is the high-side MOSFET on resistance.
RDSON2 is the low-side MOSFET on resistance.
RL is the series resistance of the output inductor.

ADP2325
The ADP2325 uses adaptive slope compensation in the current
loop to prevent subharmonic oscillations when the duty cycle is
larger than 50%. The internal slope compensation limits the minimum inductor value.
For a duty cycle that is larger than 50%, the minimum inductor
value is determined by the following equation:
VOUT  1  D 
2  f SW
The inductor peak current is calculated by
I PEAK
OUTPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION
The output capacitor selection affects both the output voltage
ripple and the loop dynamics of the regulator. For example,
during load step transient on the output, when the load is suddenly increased, the output capacitor supplies the load until the
control loop can ramp up the inductor current, which causes an
undershoot of the output voltage. Use the following equation to
calculate the output capacitance that is required to meet the voltage
droop requirement:
COUT_UV 
I
 I OUT  L
2
The saturation current of the inductor must be larger than the
peak inductor current. For the ferrite core inductors with a
quick saturation characteristic, the saturation current rating of the
inductor should be higher than the current-limit threshold of the
switch to prevent the inductor from entering saturation.
The rms current of the inductor can be calculated by
I RMS  I OUT 2 
I L 2
12
where:
ΔISTEP is the load step.
ΔVOUT_UV is the allowable undershoot on the output voltage.
KUV is a factor, typically setting KUV = 2.
Another example is when a load is suddenly removed from the
output and the energy stored in the inductor rushes into the
output capacitor, which causes the output to overshoot. The
output capacitance required to meet the overshoot requirement
can be calculated using the following equation:
Shielded ferrite core materials are recommended for low core
loss and low EMI.

LOW-SIDE POWER DEVICE SELECTION
PROGRAMMING THE UVLO INPUT
The ADP2325 has integrated low-side MOSFET drivers, which
can drive the low-side N-channel MOSFETs (NFETs). The selection of the low-side N-channel MOSFET affects the dc-to-dc
regulator performance.
The precision enable input can be used to program the UVLO
threshold and hysteresis of the input voltage, as shown in Figure 50.

The selected MOSFET must meet the following requirements:
RTOP_EN
•
•
RBOT_EN
1µA
The ADP2325 low-side gate drive voltage is 5 V. Make sure that
the selected MOSFET can be fully turned on at 5 V.
When the high-side MOSFET is turned off, the low-side MOSFET
carries the inductor current. For low duty cycle applications, the
low-side MOSFET carries the current for most of the period. To
achieve higher efficiency, it is important to select a low on-resistance MOSFET. The power conduction loss for the low-side
MOSFET can be calculated by
PFET_LOW = IOUT2 × RDSON × (1 − D)
1.2V
4µA
10036-046
Drain source voltage (VDS) must be higher than 1.2 × VIN.
Drain current (ID) must be greater than 1.2 × ILIMIT_MAX, where
ILIMIT_MAX is the selected maximum current-limit threshold.
Total gate charge (Qg at 5 V) must be less than 50 nC. Lower Qg
characteristics constitute higher efficiency.

1.1 V × 5 μA − 1.2 V × 1 μA

VIN _ RISING − RTOP _ EN × 5 μΑ − 1.2 V
where:
VIN_RISING is the VIN rising threshold.
VIN_FALLING is the VIN falling threshold.
where RDSON is the on resistance of the low-side MOSFET.
COMPENSATION COMPONENTS DESIGN
Make sure that the MOSFET can handle the thermal dissipation
due to the power loss.
In peak current mode control, the power stage can be simplified
to a voltage controlled current source supplying current to the
output capacitor and load resistor. It is composed of one domain
pole and a zero contributed by the output capacitor ESR. The
control-to-output transfer function is shown in the following
equations:
In some cases, efficiency is not critical for the system; therefore,
the diode can be selected as the low-side power device. The
average current of the diode can be calculated by
IDIODE (AVG) = (1 − D) × IOUT
The reverse breakdown voltage rating of the diode must be
greater than the input voltage with an appropriate margin to
allow for ringing, which may be present at the SWx node. A
Schottky diode is recommended because it has a low forward
voltage drop and a fast switching speed.

The rms current of the inductor for both the 1.2 V and 3.3 V
rails is approximately 5.02 A.
For the 1.2 V rail, select an inductor with a minimum rms
current rating of 5.01 A and a minimum saturation current
rating of 5.73 A. For the 3.3 V rail, select an inductor with a
minimum rms current rating of 5.02 A and a minimum

the resistors values are RTOP2 = 10 kΩ and RBOT2 = 2.21 kΩ.
CURRENT-LIMIT SETTING
For 5 A output current operation, the typical peak current
limit is 8 A. In this case, no RILIM is required.

Based on these requirements, for the 1.2 V rail, select a
1.5 µH inductor, such as the Sumida CDRH105RNP-1R5N,

The output capacitor is required to meet the output voltage
ripple and load transient requirements. To meet the output
