The LTC3221 family are micropower charge pump DC/DC converters that produce a regulated output at up to 60mA. The input voltage range is 1.8V to 5.5V. Extremely low operating current (8μA typical at no load) and low external parts count (one flying capacitor and two small bypass capacitors at VIN and VOUT) make them ideally suited for small, battery-powered applications.

The LTC3221 family includes fi xed 5V and 3.3V output versions plus an adjustable version. All parts operate as Burst Mode® switched capacitor voltage doublers to achieve ultralow quiescent current. The chips use a controlled current to supply the output and will survive a continuous short-circuit from VOUT to GND. The FB pin of the adjustable LTC3221 can be used to program the desired output voltage.

The LTC3221 family is available in a low profile (0.75mm) 2mm × 2mm 6-pin DFN package.

Applications

  • Low Power 2 AA Cell to 3.3V Supply
  • Memory Backup Supplies
  • Tire Pressure Sensors
  • General Purpose Low Power Li-Ion to 5V Supply
  • RF Transmitters
  • Glucose Meters

LTC3221EDC-5 Demo Board | Micropower Regulated Charge Pump, 2.7V ≤ VIN ≤ 5.5V, VOUT = 5V @ Up to 60mA

Product Detail

Demonstration circuit 862 is a micropower regulated charge pump DC/DC converter featuring the 60mA output LTC3221 in a 2mm × 2mm DFN package. It comes in three assembly versions, DC862A-A, DC862A-B and DC862A-C, featuring the LTC3221EDC-3.3 (fixed 3.3V output), the LTC3221EDC-5 (fixed 5V output) , and LTC3221EDC (adjustable output set to 3V), respectively. The demo board input voltage range depends on the IC used; for the 5V output DC862A-B, the input voltage range is 2.7V to 5.5V.


The LTC3221's low 8µA no-load quiescent current is even lower than the self-discharging current of many batteries. By employing a constant current to charge the output, the output ripple is low even at high input and light load, and is fairly constant over the full input voltage range.
