DESCRIPTION
The LT
廬
1316 is a micropower step-up DC/DC converter
that operates from an input voltage as low as 1.5V. A
programmable input current limiting function allows pre-
cise control of peak switch current. Peak switch current
can be set to any value between 30mA and 500mA by
adjusting one resistor. This is particularly useful for
DC/DC converters operating from high source impedance
inputs such as lithium coin cells or telephone lines.
The fixed off-time, variable on-time regulation scheme
results in quiescent current of only 33碌A(chǔ) in active mode.
Quiescent current decreases to 3碌A(chǔ) in shutdown with the
low-battery detector still active.
The LT1316 is available in 8-lead MSOP and SO packages.
