RT9296
Synchronous Boost Converter with LDO Controller
General Description
Features
The RT9296 is a synchronous boost converter, which is based on a fixed frequency pulse-width-modulation (PWM) controller using a synchronous rectifier to obtain maximum efficiency. The converter provides a power supply solution for products powered by a variety of batteries such as single cell, dual cell alkaline, NiMH and NiCd battery. At light load currents, the converter enters the power save mode to maintain a high efficiency over a wide load current range.
The output voltage can be programmed by an external resistor divider, or be a fixed voltage. Moreover, the converter can be disabled to the minimize battery drain. During shutdown, the load is completely disconnected from the battery.
