LT1308ACS8#PBF is a micropower, fixed frequency step-up DC/DC converter that operates over a 1V to 10V input voltage range. This features automatic shifting to power saving burst mode operation at light loads and consumes just 140μA at no load. Low-battery detector accuracy is significantly tighter than the LT1308. The 200mV reference is specified at ±2% at room and ±3% over temperature. The shutdown pin enables the device when it is tied to a 1V or higher source and does not need to be tied to VIN as on the LT1308. An internal VC clamp results in improved transient response and the switch voltage rating has been increased to 36V, enabling higher output voltage applications. Typical applications are GSM/CDMA phones, digital cameras, LCD bias supplies, answer-back pagers, GPS receivers, battery backup supplies, handheld computers.
