EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE
EVALUATION BOARD CONFIGURATIONS
Calculate the start-up time of the regulator by
The ADP1764 and ADP1765 evaluation boards come supplied
with different components, depending on the adjustable or fixed
version ordered. Components common to all versions are C1,
C2, C3, C4, C5, J1, and R2. Use R1 for the ADP1764-ADJ-EVALZ
and ADP1765-ADJ-EVALZ evaluation boards. Figure 9 and
Figure 10 show the schematics of these evaluation board
configurations, and Table 1 describes the hardware components.
The ADP1764-ADJ-EVALZ and ADP1765-ADJ-EVALZ have
an output voltage range of 0.5 V to 1.5 V. The output voltage is
set to 1.0 V by the external 6.8 kΩ adjust resistor.
tSTART-UP_FIXED = tDELAY + VREF × (CSS/ISS)
tSTART-UP_ADJ = tDELAY + VADJ × (CSS/ISS)
where:
tDELAY is a fixed delay of 100 µs.
VREF is a 0.5 V internal reference for the fixed output model option.
CSS is the soft start capacitance from the SS pin to GND.
ISS is the current sourced from the SS pin (10 µA).
VADJ is the voltage at the VADJ pin equal to RADJ × IADJ.

U1
Calculate the output voltage (VOUT) by
VOUT = AD × (RADJ × IADJ)
where:
AD is the gain factor with a typical value of 2.99 between the
VADJ pin and VOUT pin.
RADJ is the resistor connected between the VADJ pin and
ground.
IADJ is the 50 µA constant current from the VADJ pin.
The ADP1764-1.0-EVALZ and ADP1765-1.0-EVALZ fixed
evaluation boards use a 1.0 V output model. Do not connect R1
for the fixed output option.

Figure 3. Output Voltage Measurement Setup
Figure 3 shows how the evaluation boards can be connected to a
voltage source and a voltmeter for basic output voltage accuracy
measurements.
A resistor can be used as the load for the regulator. Ensure that
the resistor has a power rating that is adequate to handle the
power expected to dissipate across it. Use an electronic load as
an alternative. Ensure the voltage source can supply enough
current for the expected load levels.
Follow these steps to connect the evaluation board to a voltage
source and voltmeter:
1.
2.
Connect the negative terminal of the voltage source to one
of the GND pads on the evaluation board.
Connect the positive terminal of the voltage source to the
VIN pad on the evaluation board.
3.
4.
5.
Connect a load between the VOUT pad and one of the
GND pads on the evaluation board.
Connect the negative terminal of the voltmeter to one of
the GND pads on the evaluation board.
Connect the positive terminal of the voltmeter to the
VOUT pad on the evaluation board.
When these steps are completed, the voltage source can be turned
on. If J1 is inserted (connecting EN to VIN for automatic startup),
the regulator powers up.
If the load current is large, the user must connect the voltmeter
as close as possible to the output capacitor to reduce the effects
of ohmic voltage drops (IR).

LINE REGULATION MEASUREMENTS
DROPOUT VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS
For line regulation measurements, the change in the output of
the regulator is measured when the input is varied. For good
line regulation, the output must change as little as possible with
varying input levels. To ensure that the device is not in dropout
mode during line regulation measurement, VIN must be varied
between VOUT + 0.2 V (or 1.1 V, whichever is greater) and 1.98 V.
For example, for an ADP1764 or an ADP1765 device with a fixed
1.3 V output, VIN must be varied between 1.5 V and 1.98 V. This
measurement can be repeated under different load conditions.
Figure 4 shows the typical line regulation performance of an
ADP1764 and an ADP1765 with a fixed 1.3 V output.
The dropout voltage can be measured using the configuration
shown in Figure 3. Dropout voltage is defined as the input to
output voltage differential when the input voltage is set to the
nominal output voltage. The ADP1764 and the ADP1765 only
enter dropout mode for output voltages of at least 1.2 V. For
lower voltage outputs, the ADP1764 and the ADP1765 enter
undervoltage lockout and shut down. The dropout voltage
increases with larger loads.

LOAD CURRENT (A)
For load regulation measurements, the output of the regulator is
monitored while the load is varied. For good load regulation,
the output must change as little as possible with varying load.
The input voltage must be held constant during load regulation
measurement. The load current can be varied from 0 mA to 4 A
for the ADP1764 and 0 mA to 5 A for the ADP1765. Figure 5
shows the typical load regulation performance of an ADP1764
and an ADP1765 with a fixed 1.3 V output for an input voltage
of 1.5 V.

For accurate measurements, use a second voltmeter to monitor
the input voltage across the input capacitor. The input supply
voltage may need adjusting to account for IR drops, especially
when using large load currents. Figure 6 shows the typical curve
of dropout voltage measurements with different load currents.

GROUND CURRENT MEASUREMENTS
Figure 8 shows how the ADP1764 and ADP1765 evaluation
boards can connect to a voltage source and an ammeter for
ground current measurements.
A resistor can be used as the load for the regulator. Ensure the
resistor has a power rating that is adequate to handle the power
expected to be dissipated across it. Use an electronic load as an
alternative. Ensure that the voltage source can supply enough

Ground current measurements can determine how much current
the internal circuits of the regulator consume while the circuits
perform the regulation function. To be efficient, the regulator
must consume as little current as possible. Typically, the regulator
uses the maximum current when supplying its largest load level
(4 A for the ADP1764 and 5 A for the ADP1765). Figure 7 shows
the typical ground current consumption for various load levels at
VOUT = 1.3 V and TA = 25°C.
