DESCRIPTIO s s s s
High Efficiency: Over 90% High Output Currents Easily Achieved Wide VIN Range: 2.5V to 9.8V VOUT Limited Only by External ponents Constant Frequency 550k Hz Operation Burst Mode TM Operation at Light Load Current Mode Operation for Excellent Line and Load Transient Response Low Quiescent Current: 270µA Shutdown Mode Draws Only 8µA Supply Current ± 2.5% Reference Accuracy Tiny 6-Lead SOT-23 Package
The LTC®1872 is a constant frequency current mode stepup DC/DC controller providing excellent AC and DC load and line regulation. The device incorporates an accurate undervoltage lockout feature that shuts down the LTC1872 when the input voltage falls below 2.0V. The LTC1872 boasts a ± 2.5% output voltage accuracy and consumes only 270µA of quiescent current. For applications where efficiency is a prime consideration, the LTC1872 is configured for Burst Mode operation, which enhances efficiency at low output current. In shutdown, the device draws a mere 8µA. The high 550k Hz constant operating frequency allows the use of a small external inductor. The LTC1872 is available in a small footprint 6-lead SOT-23.
