  • VIN Start-Up Voltage: 680mV
  • 1.5V to 5.25V VOUT Range
  • Up to 94% Efficiency
  • Output Disconnect
  • 1MHz Fixed Frequency Operation
  • VIN > VOUT Operation
  • Integrated Soft-Start
  • Current Mode Control with Internal Compensation
  • Burst Mode® Operation with 9μA IQ (LTC3526L)
  • Low Noise PWM Operation (LT3526LB)
  • Internal Synchronous Rectifier
  • Logic Controlled Shutdown (IQ < 1μA)
  • Anti-Ring Control
  • Low Profile (2mm × 2mm × 0.75mm) DFN-6 Package

The LTC3526L/LTC3526LB are synchronous, fixed frequency step-up DC/DC converters with output disconnect. Synchronous rectification enables high efficiency in the low profile 2mm × 2mm DFN package. Battery life in single AA/AAA powered products is extended further with a 680mV start-up voltage and operation down to 500mV once started.

A switching frequency of 1MHz minimizes solution footprint by allowing the use of tiny, low profile inductors and ceramic capacitors. The current mode PWM design is internally compensated, reducing external parts count. The LTC3526L features Burst Mode operation at light load conditions allowing it to maintain high efficiency over a wide range of load. The LTC3526LB features fixed frequency operation for low noise applications. Anti-ring circuitry reduces EMI by damping the inductor in discontinuous mode. Additional features include a low shutdown current of under 1μA and thermal shutdown.

The LTC3526L/LTC3526LB are housed in a 2mm × 2mm × 0.75mm DFN package.

Evaluation Kits

eval board
DC1053A-F

LTC3526LBEDC Demo Board | 1MHz, 0.8V ≤ VIN ≤ 5.5V, VOUT = 1.8V/3.3V/5V @ 100mA

Product Details

Demonstration circuits 1053A-E through 1053A-H exercise the LTC3526L family of high efficiency synchronous boost converters, and are capable of operating with an input voltage range from 0.8V to 5.5V. The 2 × 2 mm DFN thermally enhanced package, high switching frequency (1MHz or 2MHz) and 550mA internal power switches provide a very tiny solution. The LTC3526L family also features output disconnect, and the input voltage can be greater or less than the output voltage. DC1053A-E features the LTC3526L (Burst mode operation) and the DC1053A-F features the LTC3526LB (Burst mode defeated). Both have a 1MHz switching frequency and use a 4.7µH inductor.
