ML4770* 2 Cell, Adjustable Output, High Current Boost Regulator with Load Disconnect
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ML4770 is a continuous conduction mode boost regulator designed for DC to DC conversion in multiple cell battery power systems. Continuous conduction allows the regulator to maximize output current for a given inductor. The maximum switching frequency can exceed 200kHz, allowing the use of small, low cost inductors. The ML4770 is capable of start-up with input voltages as low as 1.8V. The output voltage can be set anywhere between 3.0V and 5.5V by an external resistor divider connected to the SENSE pin.
