The ADP1611 is a step-up dc-to-dc switching converter with an
integrated 1.2 A, 0.23 Ω power switch capable of providing an
output voltage as high as 20 V. With a package height of less
than 1.1 mm, the ADP1611 is optimal for space-constrained
applications such as portable devices or thin film transistor
(TFT) liquid crystal displays (LCDs).
The ADP1611 operates in pulse-width modulation (PWM)
current mode with up to 90% efficiency. Adjustable soft start
prevents inrush currents at startup. The pin-selectable switching
frequency and PWM current-mode architecture allow excellent
transient response, easy noise filtering, and the use of small,
cost-saving external inductors and capacitors.

ADP1611
THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADP1611 current-mode step-up switching converter
converts a 2.5 V to 5.5 V input voltage up to an output voltage
as high as 20 V. The 1.2 A internal switch allows a high output
current, and the high 1.2 MHz switching frequency allows tiny
external components. The switch current is monitored on a
pulse-by-pulse basis to limit it to 2 A.
CURRENT-MODE PWM OPERATION
The ADP1611 uses current-mode architecture to regulate the
output voltage. The output voltage is monitored at FB through a
resistive voltage divider. The voltage at FB is compared to the
internal 1.23 V reference by the internal transconductance error
amplifier to create an error current at COMP. A series resistorcapacitor at COMP converts the error current to a voltage.
The switch current is internally measured and added to the
stabilizing ramp, and the resulting sum is compared to the error
voltage at COMP to control the PWM modulator. This currentmode regulation system allows fast transient response, while
maintaining a stable output voltage. By selecting the proper
resistor-capacitor network from COMP to GND, the regulator
response is optimized for a wide range of input voltages, output
voltages, and load conditions.
FREQUENCY SELECTION
The ADP1611 frequency is user-selectable and operates at
either 700 kHz to optimize the regulator for high efficiency
or at 1.2 MHz for small external components. Connect RT to
IN for 1.2 MHz operation, or connect RT to GND for 700 kHz
operation. To achieve the maximum duty cycle, which might
be required for converting a low input voltage to a high output
voltage, use the lower 700 kHz switching frequency.
SOFT START
To prevent input inrush current at startup, connect a capacitor
from SS to GND to set the soft-start period. When the device is
in shutdown (SD is at GND) or the input voltage is below the
2.4 V undervoltage lockout voltage, SS is internally shorted to
GND to discharge the soft start capacitor. Once the ADP1611 is
turned on, SS sources 3 µA to the soft-start capacitor at startup.
As the soft-start capacitor charges, it limits the voltage at
COMP. Because of the current-mode regulator, the voltage at
COMP is proportional to the switch peak current, and,
therefore, the input current. By slowly charging the soft-start
capacitor, the input current ramps slowly to prevent it from
overshooting excessively at startup.
ON/OFF CONTROL
The SD input turns the ADP1611 regulator on or off. Drive SD
low to turn off the regulator and reduce the input current to
10 nA. Drive SD high to turn on the regulator.
When the step-up dc-to-dc switching converter is turned off,
there is a dc path from the input to the output through the
inductor and output rectifier. This causes the output voltage to
remain slightly below the input voltage by the forward voltage
of the rectifier, preventing the output voltage from dropping to
0 when the regulator is shut down. Figure 28 shows the application circuit to disconnect the output voltage from the input
voltage at shutdown.
SETTING THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE
The ADP1611 features an adjustable output voltage range of VIN
to 20 V. The output voltage is set by the resistive voltage divider
(R1 and R2 in Figure 2) from the output voltage (VOUT) to the
1.230 V feedback input at FB. Use the following formula to
determine the output voltage:
VOUT = 1.23 × (1 + R1/R2)
(1)
Use an R2 resistance of 10 kΩ or less to prevent output voltage
errors due to the 10 nA FB input bias current. Choose R1 based
on the following formula:
− 1.23 ⎞
⎛V
R1 = R2 × ⎜ OUT
⎟
1.23
⎠
⎝
(2)
INDUCTOR SELECTION
The inductor is an essential part of the step-up switching
converter. It stores energy during the on time, and transfers that
energy to the output through the output rectifier during the off
time. Use inductance in the range of 1 µH to 22 µH. In general,
lower inductance values have higher saturation current and
lower series resistance for a given physical size. However, lower
inductance results in higher peak current that can lead to
reduced efficiency and greater input and/or output ripple and
noise. Peak-to-peak inductor ripple current at close to 30% of
the maximum dc input current typically yields an optimal
compromise.
For determining the inductor ripple current, the input (VIN) and
output (VOUT) voltages determine the switch duty cycle (D) by
the following equation:
D=

The output capacitor maintains the output voltage and supplies
current to the load while the ADP1611 switch is on. The value
and characteristics of the output capacitor greatly affect the
output voltage ripple and stability of the regulator. Use a low
ESR output capacitor; ceramic dielectric capacitors are
preferred.
The inductor ripple current (∆IL) in steady state is

Make sure that the peak inductor current (the maximum input
current plus half the inductor ripple current) is below the rated
saturation current of the inductor. Likewise, make sure that the
maximum rated rms current of the inductor is greater than the
maximum dc input current to the regulator.
For duty cycles greater than 50%, which occur with input
voltages greater than one-half the output voltage, slope
compensation is required to maintain stability of the currentmode regulator. For stable current-mode operation, ensure that
the selected inductance is equal to or greater than LMIN
L > L MIN =
For very low ESR capacitors, such as ceramic capacitors, the
ripple current due to the capacitance is calculated as follows.
Because the capacitor discharges during the on time, tON, the
charge removed from the capacitor, QC, is the load current
multiplied by the on time. Therefore, the output voltage ripple
(∆VOUT) is

CHOOSING THE INPUT AND OUTPUT CAPACITORS
The ADP1611 requires input and output bypass capacitors to
supply transient currents while maintaining constant input and
output voltage. Use a low equivalent series resistance (ESR)
input capacitor, 10 µF or greater, to prevent noise at the
ADP1611 input. Place the capacitor between IN and GND as
close to the ADP1611 as possible. Ceramic capacitors are
preferred because of their low ESR characteristics. Alternatively,
use a high value, medium ESR capacitor in parallel with a 0.1 µF
low ESR capacitor as close to the ADP1611 as possible.

DIODE SELECTION
The output rectifier conducts the inductor current to the output
capacitor and load while the switch is off. For high efficiency,
minimize the forward voltage drop of the diode. For this reason,
Schottky rectifiers are recommended. However, for high
voltage, high temperature applications where the Schottky
rectifier reverse leakage current becomes significant and can
degrade efficiency, use an ultrafast junction diode.
Make sure that the diode is rated to handle the average output
load current. Many diode manufacturers derate the current
capability of the diode as a function of the duty cycle. Verify
that the output diode is rated to handle the average output load
current with the minimum duty cycle. The minimum duty cycle
of the ADP1611 is

AVL is the loop gain.
VFB is the feedback regulation voltage, 1.230 V.
VOUT is the regulated output voltage.
VIN is the input voltage.
GMEA is the error amplifier transconductance gain.
ZCOMP is the impedance of the series RC network from COMP to
GND.
GCS is the current-sense transconductance gain (the inductor
current divided by the voltage at COMP), which is internally set
by the ADP1611.
ZOUT is the impedance of the load and output capacitor.
The ADP1611 uses external components to compensate the
regulator loop, allowing optimization of the loop dynamics for a
given application.
The step-up converter produces an undesirable right-half plane
zero in the regulation feedback loop. This requires compensating the regulator such that the crossover frequency occurs
well below the frequency of the right-half plane zero. The righthalf plane zero is determined by the following equation:

To determine the crossover frequency, it is important to note
that, at that frequency, the compensation impedance (ZCOMP) is
dominated by the resistor, and the output impedance (ZOUT) is
dominated by the impedance of the output capacitor. So, when
solving for the crossover frequency, the equation (by definition
of the crossover frequency) is simplified to

For low ESR output capacitance, such as with a ceramic capacitor, C2 is optional. For optimal transient performance, the
RCOMP and CCOMP might need to be adjusted by observing the
load transient response of the ADP1611. For most applications,
the compensation resistor should be in the range of 30 kΩ to
400 kΩ, and the compensation capacitor should be in the range
of 100 pF to 1.2 nF. Table 7 shows external component values
for several applications.

The voltage at SS ramps up slowly by charging the soft-start
capacitor (CSS) with an internal 3 µA current source. Table 8
lists the values for the soft-start period, based on maximum
output current and maximum switching frequency.
The soft-start capacitor limits the rate of voltage rise on the
COMP pin, which in turn limits the peak switch current at
startup. Table 8 shows a typical soft-start period, tSS, at
maximum output current, IOUT_MAX, for several conditions.
A 20 nF soft-start capacitor results in negligible input current
overshoot at startup, and so is suitable for most applications.
However, if an unusually large output capacitor is used, a longer
soft-start period is required to prevent input inrush current.

Conversely, if fast startup is a requirement, the soft-start
capacitor can be reduced or even removed, allowing the
ADP1611 to start quickly, but allowing greater peak switch
current (see Figure 24 and Figure 25).

APPLICATION CIRCUITS
TFT LCD BIAS SUPPLY
The circuit in Figure 27 shows the ADP1611 in a step-up
configuration. The ADP1611 is used here to generate a 15 V
regulator with the following specifications:
Figure 29 shows a power supply circuit for TFT LCD module
applications. This circuit has +10 V, −5 V, and +22 V outputs.
The +10 V is generated in the step-up configuration. The −5 V
and +22 V are generated by the charge-pump circuit. During
step-up , the SW node switches between 10 V and ground
(neglecting forward drop of the diode and on resistance of the
switch). When the SW node is high, C5 charges up to 10 V. C5
holds its charge and forward-biases D8 to charge C6 to −10 V.
The Zener diode, D9, clamps and regulates the output to −5 V.
VIN = 3.5 V to 5.5 V
VOUT = 15 V
IOUT ≤ 400 mA
The output can be set to the desired voltage using Equation 2.
Use Equations 16 and 17 to change the compensation network.

Some battery-powered applications require very low standby
current. The ADP1611 typically consumes 10 nA from the
input, which makes it suitable for these applications. However,
the output is connected to the input through the inductor and
the rectifying diode, allowing load current draw from the input
while shut down. The circuit in Figure 28 enables the ADP1611
to achieve output load disconnect at shutdown. To shut down
the ADP1611 and disconnect the output from the input, drive
the SD pin below 0.4 V.

SEPIC POWER SUPPLY
The input and the output are dc-isolated by a coupling capacitor, C1. In steady state, the average voltage of C1 is the input
voltage. When the ADP1611 switch turns on and the diode
turns off, the input voltage provides energy to L1, and C1
provides energy to L2. When the ADP1611 switch turns off and
the diode turns on, the energy in L1 and L2 is released to charge
the output capacitor, COUT, and the coupling capacitor, C1, and
to supply current to the load.

The circuit in Figure 30 shows the ADP1611 in a single-ended
primary inductance converter (SEPIC) topology. This topology
is useful for an unregulated input voltage, such as a batterypowered application in which the input voltage can vary
between 2.7 V to 5 V, and the regulated output voltage falls
within the input voltage range.

LAYOUT PROCEDURE
To achieve high efficiency, good regulation, and stability, a welldesigned printed circuit board layout is required. Where
possible, use the sample application board layout as a model.
Follow these guidelines when designing printed circuit boards
(see Figure 1):
•
Keep the low ESR input capacitor, CIN, close to IN and
GND.
Keep the high current path from CIN through the inductor,
L1, to SW and PGND as short as possible.
•
Keep the high current path from CIN through L1, the
rectifier, D1, and the output capacitor, COUT, as short as
possible.
Keep high current traces as short and as wide as possible.
•
Place the feedback resistors as close to FB as possible to
prevent noise pickup.
•
Place the compensation components as close as possible to
COMP.
•
Avoid routing high impedance traces near any node
connected to SW or near the inductor to prevent radiated
noise injection.
