FAN4855 Overview
The FAN4855 is a low power boost regulator designed for low voltage DC to DC conversion in 2-cell battery powered systems such as digital cameras, cell phones and PDAs. The converter starts-up at 1.3V and operates after the start at an input voltage as low as 1V. Output voltage can be adjusted by external resistors from 3.3V to 5V with a maximum load current of 0.5A.
