The LT3461/LT3461A are general purpose fixed frequency current mode step-up DC/DC converters. Both devices feature an integrated Schottky and a low VCESAT switch allowing a small converter footprint and lower parts cost. The LT3461 switches at 1.3MHz while the LT3461A switches at 3MHz. These high switching frequencies enable the use of tiny, low cost and low height capacitors and inductors. The constant switching frequency results in predictable output noise that is easy to filter, and the inductor based topology ensures an input free from switching noise typically present with charge pump solutions. The high voltage switch in the LT3461/LT3461A is rated at 40V making the device ideal for boost converters up to 38V.

The LT3461/LT3461A are available in a low profile (1mm) SOT-23 package.

LT3461 Signal Chain Evaluation Board | 1.3MHz Boost DC/DC with Int Schottky

LT3461 Signal Chain Evaluation Board | 1.3MHz Boost DC/DC with Int Schottky

Product Detail

Demonstration circuit SCP-LT3461-EVALZ features the LT3461 in a 12V output boost converter which operates from an input voltage of 3V to 6V. The maximum output current is 70mA when powered from a 5.0V input and 40mA when powered from a 3.3V input.

Like all boards in the Signal Chain Power series, this board is designed to be easily plugged into other SCP boards to form a complete signal chain power system, enabling fast evaluation of low power signal chains. To evaluate this board, some universal SCP hardware is required, namely:

  • SCP-INPUT-EVALZ
  • SCP-OUTPUT-EVALZ
  • SCP-1X5BKOUT-EVALZ
  • SCP-THRUBRD-EVALZ
  • SCP-FILTER-EVALZ
  • SCP-1X2BKOUT-EVALZ
  • SCP-5X1-EVALZ

 

To properly evaluate SCP series demo boards, you will need the SCP Configurator companion software. SCP Configurator can help you choose the right board and topology for your design.

Note that the Demo Manual does not cover details important to the operation and configuration regarding the LT3461. Please refer to the LT3461 data sheet for a complete description of the part.

LT3461ES6 Demo Board | 1.3MHz, VIN = 3V to 6V, VOUT = 12V, (at VIN = 5V, IOUT = 70mA)

Product Detail

Demonstration circuit 627 features the LT3461/LT3461A in a 12V output boost converter which operates from an input voltage of 3V to 6V. The DC627A-A is for the 1.3MHz switching LT3461, and the DC627A-B is for the 3MHz switching LT3461A. For both boards, the maximum output current is 70mA when powered from a 5.0V input and 40mA when powered from a 3.3V input.
