High Voltage, Low Noise, DC/DC Converters &mdash AN118
PDF, 2.6 Mb, File published: Mar 28, 2008
Photomultipliers (PMT), avalanche photodiodes (APD), ultrasonic transducers, capacitance microphones, radiation detectors and similar devices require high voltage, low current bias. Additionally, the high voltage must be pristinely free of noise; well under a millivolt is a common requirement with a few hundred microvolts sometimes necessary. Normally, switching regulator conп¬Ѓgurations cannot achieve this performance level without employing special techniques. One aid to achieving low noise is that load currents rarely exceed 5mA. This freedom permits output п¬Ѓltering methods that are usually impractical.

High Voltage, Low Noise, DC/DC Converters
A Kilovolt with 100 Microvolts of Noise
Jim Williams This publication describes a variety of circuits featuring
outputs from 200V to 1000V with output noise below 100ВµV
measured in a 100MHz bandwidth. Special techniques
enable this performance, most notably power stages
optimized to minimize high frequency harmonic content.
Although sophisticated, all examples presented utilize
standard, commercially available magneticsвЂ”no custom
components are required. This provision is intended to
assist the user in quickly arriving at a produceable design.
Circuits and their descriptions are presented beginning
with the next ink.

3MHz Micropower Synchronous Boost Converters Deliver 3W from Two Cells in a Tiny MSOP Package &mdash DN246

advertisement 3MHz Micropower Synchronous Boost Converters Deliver
3W from Two Cells in a Tiny MSOP Package
Design Note 246
Mark Jordan
Portable electronic devices operating from one or more
alkaline or nickel-metal-hydride cells require a boosted
supply that is both small and efп¬Ѓcient. Linear TechnologyвЂ™s new LTC В®3401 and LTC3402 are high frequency
micropower synchronous boost converters that operate from an input voltage below 1V and deliver up to
1A of output current from two cells. DC/DC efп¬Ѓciency
can be as high as 97%. The operating frequency,
output voltage and Burst Mode В® operation are all
user programmable, allowing these products to п¬Ѓt in
various applications where size considerations must
be balanced against efп¬Ѓciency. Furthermore, all of this
functionality is packed into a small, thermally enhanced
MSOP-10 package.
The LTC3401 is optimized for applications requiring less than 1.5W of total output power from two
alkaline cells, whereas the LTC3402 is optimized for
applications requiring 3W or less from two cells.
High efп¬Ѓciency is achieved through internal features
such as lossless current sensing, low gate charge,
low RDS(ON) synchronous power switches (0.16О©
NMOS, 0.18О© PMOS) and fast switching transitions …
