LT1944-1
Dual Micropower Step-Up
DC/DC Converter
DESCRIPTIO
The LT®1944-1 is a dual micropower step-up DC/DC
converter in a 10-pin MSOP package. One converter is
designed with a 100mA current limit and a 400ns off-time;
the other with a 175mA current limit and a 1.5µs off-time.
The 1.5µs off-time converter is ideal for generating an
output voltage that is close to the input voltage (i.e. a Li-
Ion to 5V converter, or a two-cell to 3.3V converter). With
an input voltage range of 1.2V to 15V, the LT1944-1 is ideal
for a wide variety of applications. Both converters feature
a quiescent current of only 20µA at no load, which further
reduces to 0.5µA in shutdown. A current limited, fixed off-
time control scheme conserves operating current, result-
ing in high efficiency over a broad range of load current.
Tiny, low profile inductors and capacitors can be used to
minimize footprint and cost in space-conscious portable
applications.
