Each converter is designed with a 350mA current limit and an input voltage range of 1.2V to 15V, making the LT1945 ideal for a wide variety of applications. Both converters feature a quiescent current of only 20µA at no load, which further reduces to 0.5µA in shutdown. A current limited, fixed off-time control scheme conserves operating current, resulting in high efficiency over a broad range of load current. The 36V switch allows high voltage outputs up to ±34V to be easily generated without the use of costly transformers.
