Synchronous Rectification: Up to 96% Efficiency
The LTC®3421 is a high efficiency, current mode, fixed n
True Output Disconnect
frequency, step-up DC/DC converter with true output dis- n
Inrush Current Limiting
connect and inrush current limiting. The device includes a n
Very Low Quiescent Current: 12µA
0.10Ω N-channel MOSFET switch and a 0.14Ω P-channel n
Up to 1.5A Continuous Output Current
synchronous rectifier. This product has the ability to sim- n Fixed Frequency Operation Up to 3MHz ply program the output voltage, switching frequency, n 0.5V to 4.5V Input Range current limit, soft-start, Burst Mode threshold and loop n 2.4V to 5.25V Adjustable Output Voltage compensation with external passive components. n Guaranteed 1V Start-Up Quiescent current is only 12µA during Burst Mode opera- n Programmable Current Limit tion, maximizing battery life in portable applications. The n Programmable Soft-Start oscillator frequency can be programmed up to 3MHz n Synchronizable Oscillator and can be synchronized to an external clock applied to n Manual or Automatic Burst Mode® Operation the SYNC pin. An open-drain uncommitted low-battery n Low-Battery Comparator comparator is included. The part maintains operation in n <1µA Shutdown Current applications with a secondary cell powering the output n 1.22V Reference Output Voltage voltage during shutdown. n Small (4mm × 4mm) Thermally Enhanced QFN Package Other features include: 1µA shutdown, antiringing control, thermal limit and reference output.
APPLICATIONS
The LTC3421 is available in a small 4mm × 4mm QFN n Handheld Computers package. n Cordless Phones All registered trademarks and trademarks are the property of their respective owners. n GPS Receivers n Battery Backup Supplies
