Fixed 5V boost from 2V to 9V input
The ADP1109AN-5 is a step-up (boost) DC-DC converter from Analog Devices that delivers a fixed 5V output from an input range of 2V to 9V. It integrates a 1.2A switch rated at 120 kHz switching frequency, making it suitable for battery-powered or low-voltage rail conversion where a regulated 5V rail is needed. The through-hole package (0.300" width, 7.62 mm pitch) is a standard footprint for prototyping, breadboard work, or retrofit into legacy boards that use DIP sockets. Operating temperature is 0°C to 70°C, so it is intended for commercial/indoor environments — not extended industrial or automotive under-hood use.
1.2A switch current — what it means for your load
The 1.2A switch current is the peak current the internal power switch can handle. For a boost converter, the output current available to the load is lower than the switch current.
Through-hole DIP — board fit and handling
The through-hole package (0.300" body width, 7.62 mm lead pitch) is a standard footprint that fits common DIP sockets or can be soldered directly into plated through-holes.
