LTC3527/LTC3527-1 Dual 800mA/400mA, 1.2MHz/2.2MHz Synchronous Step-Up DC/DC Converters FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Dual Synchronous Step-Up DC/DC Converters The LTC®3527/LTC3527-1 are dual high effi ciency, step-up n Delivers 3.3V at 200mA/100mA from one Alkaline/ DC/DC converters in a space saving 16-lead 3mm × 3mm NiMH Cell, or 3.3V at 400mA/200mA from Two Cells QFN package. Battery life is maximized with a 700mV start- n VIN Start-Up Voltage: 700mV up voltage and operation down to 500mV once started. n 0.5V to 5V VIN Range After Start-Up The SHDN and PGOOD pins enable the converters to be n 1.6V to 5.25V VOUT Range sequenced or started together. n Output Disconnect in Shutdown The LTC3527/LTC3527-1 limit inrush current during start- n VIN > VOUT Operation up. Selectable 1.2MHz or 2.2MHz operation provides a n 1.2MHz or 2.2MHz Operation choice between the highest effi ciency or smallest solu- n Up to 94% Effi ciency tion footprint. The current mode PWM design is internally n 12μA Quiescent Current in Burst Mode® Operation compensated reducing external parts count. Burst Mode n Inrush Current Limiting and Soft-Start operation or fi xed frequency operation is selectable via the n Internal Synchronous Rectifi ers MODE pin. Anti-ring circuitry reduces EMI in discontinuous n Logic-Controlled Shutdown (< 2μA) mode. This device also features thermal shutdown. n Quick VOUT Discharge (LTC3527-1) n 16-Lead, 0.75mm × 3mm × 3mm QFN Package True output disconnect allows the output to be completely open in shutdown. The LTC3527-1 actively discharges APPLICATIONS VOUT1 or VOUT2 when its respective SHDN goes low. Qui- escent current in shutdown is less than 2μA. n MP3/Personal Media Players L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks and n Noise Canceling/Bluetooth Headsets ThinSOT is a trademark of Linear Technology Corporation.
