Analog Devices Unveils ADP2503, ADP2504 Compact Buck-Boost Regulators

Posted by EDA Geek News Staff in Components on Friday, August 29, 2008

Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI), a global leader in high-performance semiconductors for signal-processing applications, introduces one of the industry’s smallest buck-boost regulators — and the first to support switching frequencies at speeds up to 2.5 MHz. Designed to regulate voltages above and below the battery output voltage in portable electronics, ADI’s ADP2503 and ADP2504 step-up/step-down dc-to-dc regulators incorporate a patent-pending architecture that delivers seamless mode transitions. The ultra-fast switching speed of the new regulators allows designers to use low-cost multilayer inductors that are half the size of other solutions. In addition, the total external component count has been reduced to three, resulting in a total PCB area of less than 13 mm2 and a height of less than 1 mm, making the solution ideal for space constrained applications such as wireless handsets, digital still cameras, portable audio players and USB-powered consumer and industrial devices.
