will continue with inputs down to 500mV, extending run n Up to 3MHz Adjustable Switching Frequency time in many applications. Synchronizable to External Clock The LTC3121 features output disconnect in shutdown, n Selectable Burst Mode® Operation: 25µA IQ dramatically reducing input power drain and enabling n Output Overvoltage Protection VOUT to completely discharge. Adjustable PWM switching n Soft-Start from 100kHz to 3MHz optimizes applications for highest n <1µA IQ in Shutdown efficiency or smallest solution footprint. The oscillator n 12-Lead, 3mm × 4mm Thermally Enhanced DFN can also be synchronized to an external clock for noise Package sensitive applications. Selectable Burst Mode operation reduces quiescent current to 25µA, ensuring high efficiency
