Package Type
General Description
The TC110 is a step-up (Boost) switching controller
that furnishes output currents of up to 300mA while
delivering a typical efficiency of 84%. The TC110
normally operates in pulse width modulation mode
(PWM), but automatically switches to pulse frequency
modulation (PFM) at low output loads for greater
efficiency. Supply current draw for the 100kHz version
is typically only 50µA, and is reduced to less than
0.5µA when the SHDN
input is brought low. Regulator
operation is suspended during shutdown. The TC110
accepts input voltages from 2.0V to 10.0V, with a
guaranteed start-up voltage of 0.9V.
The TC110 is available in a small 5-Pin SOT-23A
package, occupies minimum board space and uses
small external components (the 300kHz version allows
for less than 5mm surface-mount magnetics).

Pin No.
(5-Pin SOT-23A)
Symbol Description
1V
OUT
Internal device power and voltage sense input. This dual function input provides both feedback
voltage sensing and internal chip power. It should be connected to the regulator output. (See
Section 4.0, Applications).
2V
DD
Power supply voltage input.
3 SHDN
/SS Shutdown input. A logic low on this input suspends device operation and supply current is
reducedtolessthan0.5µA. The device resumes normal operation when SHDN
is again brought
high. An RC circuit connected to this input also determines the soft-start time.
4 GND Ground terminal.
5 EXT External switch transistor drive complimentary output. This pin drives the external switching
transistor. It may be connected to the base of the external bipolar transistor or gate of the external
N-channel MOSFET. (See Section 4.0, Applications).
