ADP190CB-EVALZ

Evaluation Board for the High-Side Power Switch EVAL-ADP190 FEATURES GENERAL DESCRIPTION Ultrasmall 0.8 × 0.8 mm, 4-ball, 0.4 mm pitch WLCSP Low RDSON of 105 mΩ @ 1.8 V Low input voltage range of 1.2 V to 3.6 V 500 mA continuous operating current Operating temperature range: TJ = −40°C to +85°C The EVAL-ADP190 is used to demonstrate the functionality of the ADP190 power switch. Simple device measurements such as VIN to VOUT resistance (RDSON), ground current, and off state current can be demonstrated with just a single voltage supply, a voltmeter, a current meter, and load resistors. Full details about the ADP190 regulators are available in the ADP190 data sheet, which should be consulted when using the EVAL-ADP190. 07862-001 EVALUATION BOARD Figure 1.

RDSON is defined as the input-to-output voltage differential divided by load current. 200 ILOAD ILOAD ILOAD ILOAD ILOAD 180 The voltmeter reading divided by the load current value gives the equivalent RDSON value. For more accurate measurements, a second voltage meter can be used to monitor the input voltage across the input capacitor. The input supply voltage may need to be adjusted to account for IR drops, especially if large load currents are used. Figure 3 shows a typical curve of RDSON measurements with different load currents. = 10mA = 100mA = 250mA = 350mA = 500mA RDSON (mΩ) 160 140 120 80 1.2 1.6 2.0 2.4 VIN (V) 2.8 3.2 3.6 07862-003 100 Figure 3.

To be efficient, the power switch needs to consume as little current as possible. Figure 5 shows the typical ground current consumption for various load levels. 1. 2. 3. 4. Connect the positive terminal (+) of the voltage source to the VIN pad on the evaluation board. Connect the positive terminal (+) of the ammeter to one of the GND pads of the evaluation board. Connect the negative terminal (−) of the ammeter to the negative (−) terminal of the voltage source. Connect a load between the VOUT pad of the evaluation board and the negative (−) terminal of the voltage source. The voltage source can now be turned on. If J1 is inserted (connecting EN to VIN for automatic startup), the regulator powers up. 1.8 1.6 ILOAD ILOAD ILOAD ILOAD ILOAD = 10mA = 100mA = 250mA = 350mA = 500mA 1.4 1.2 1.0 0.8 0.6 1.2 1.7 2.2 2.7 3.2 VIN (V) Figure 5.

A resistor can be used as the load for the regulator. Ensure that the resistor has a power rating adequate to handle the power expected to be dissipated across it. An electronic load can be used as an alternative. Ensure that the voltage source used can supply enough current for the expected load levels. If voltmeters are connected at the input or output terminals, subtract the current resulting from the shunt resistance of the voltmeter for accurate ground current measurement. EVAL-ADP190 SHUTDOWN CURRENT MEASUREMENT Figure 8 shows how the evaluation board can be connected to a voltage source and an ammeter for shutdown current measurements. The ammeter can also be connected to the GND terminal to measure the ground current, which is equal to the shutdown current when EN is tied to ground. Figure 7 shows the typical shutdown current consumption for various input voltages. Follow these steps to connect to a voltage source and ammeter: 1. 2. 3. 0.7 4.
