The LTC3528/LTC3528B are synchronous, fixed frequency step-up DC/DC converters with output disconnect. High efficiency synchronous rectification, in addition to a 700mV start-up voltage and operation down to 500mV once started, provides longer run-time for single or multiple cell battery-powered products.A switching frequency of 1MHz minimizes solution foot- print by allowing the use of tiny, low prole inductors and ceramic capacitors. The current mode PWM is internally compensated, simplifying the design process. The LTC3528 enters Burst Mode operation at light loads, while the LTC3528B features continuous switching at light loads. Anti-ringing circuitry reduces EMI by damping the inductor in discontinuous mode. Additional features include a low shutdown current, open-drain power good output, short- circuit protection and thermal overload protection.The LTC3528/LTC3528B are offered in an 8-lead 3mm x 2mm x 0.75mm DFN package.FrequencyBurst ModeLTC35281MHzYesLTC3528B1MHzNoLTC3528-22MHzYesLTC3528B-22MHzNoApplicationsMedical InstrumentsFlash-Based MP3 PlayersNoise Canceling HeadphonesWireless MiceBluetooth Headsets
