The LT
廬
1306 is a fully integrated, fixed frequency syn-
chronous boost converter capable of generating 5V at 1A
from a Li-Ion cell. The device contains both the main
power switch and synchronous rectifier on chip and
automatically disconnects the output from the input in
shutdown, eliminating the need for external load discon-
nect circuitry. Additionally, the output remains regulated
when V
IN
exceeds V
OUT
, allowing difficult step-up/step-
down converter functions to be easily realized using a
single inductor.
The internal 300kHz oscillator of the LT1306 can be easily
synchronized to an external clock from 425kHz to 500kHz.
This allows switching harmonics to be tightly controlled
and eliminates any beat frequencies that may result from
a multifrequency system. The LT1306 automatically shifts
into power saving Burst Mode
TM
operation at light loads.
At heavy loads the LT1306 operates in fixed frequency
current mode. No-load quiescent current is 160碌A(chǔ) and
reduces to 9碌A(chǔ) in shutdown mode.
The LT1306 is available in an SO-8 package.
