DESCRIPTION
The kB3440 is a high efficiency, fixed frequency, Buck-
Boost DC/DC converter that operates from input voltages
above, below or equal to the output voltage. The topology
incorporated in the IC provides a continuous transfer
function through all operating modes, making the product
ideal for single lithium-ion, multicell alkaline or NiMH
applications where the output voltage is within the battery
voltage range.
The device includes two 0.191 N-channel MOSFET
switches and two 0.221 P-channel switches. Switching
frequencies up to 2MHz are programmed with an external
resistor and the oscillator can be synchronized to an
external clock. Quiescent current is only 40µA in Burst
Mode operation, maximizing battery life in portable appli-
cations. Burst Mode operation is user controlled and can
be enabled by driving the MODE/SYNC pin high. If the
MODE/SYNC pin has either a clock or is driven low, then
fixed frequency switching is enabled.
Other features include a 1µA shutdown, soft-start con-
trol, thermal shutdown and current limit. The kB3440 is
available in the 10-pin thermally enhanced MSOP and
(3mm × 3mm) DFN packages.
