LT1307/LT1307B
1307fa
Single Cell Micropower
600kHz PWM DC/DC Converters
The LT
®
1307/LT1307B are micropower, fixed frequency
DC/DC converters that operate from an input voltage as
low as 1V. First in the industry to achieve true current
mode PWM performance from a single cell supply, the
LT1307 features automatic shifting to power saving Burst
Mode operation at light loads. High efficiency is main-
tained over a broad 100µA to 100mA load range. The
LT1307B does not shift into Burst Mode operation at light
loads, eliminating low frequency output ripple at the
expense of light load efficiency. The devices contain a low-
battery detector with a 200mV reference and shut down to
less than 5µA. No load quiescent current of the LT1307 is
50µA and the internal NPN power switch handles a 500mA
current with a voltage drop of just 295mV.
Unlike competitive devices, large electrolytic capacitors
are
not required
with the LT1307/LT1307B in single cell
applications. The high frequency (600kHz) switching al-
lows the use of tiny surface mount multilayer ceramic
(MLC) capacitors along with small surface mount induc-
tors. The devices work with just 10µF of output capaci-
tance and require only 1µF of input bypassing.
The LT1307/LT1307B are available in 8-lead MSOP, PDIP
and SO packages.
