The LT®1308A/LT1308B are micropower, fixed frequency step-up DC/DC converters that operate over a 1V to 10V input voltage range. They are improved versions of the LT1308 and are recommended for use in new designs. The LT1308A features automatic shifting to power saving Burst Mode operation at light loads and consumes just 140μA at no load.
