LT1944-1 Dual Micropower Step-Up DC/DC Converter UFEATURESDESCRIPTIO ■ Low Quiescent Current: The LT®1944-1 is a dual micropower step-up DC/DC 20 µ A in Active Mode converter in a 10-pin MSOP package. One converter is <1 µ A in Shutdown Mode designed with a 100mA current limit and a 400ns off-time; ■ Operates with V the other with a 175mA current limit and a 1.5 IN as Low as 1.2V µs off-time. ■ Low V The 1.5 CESAT Switches: 85mV at 70mA µs off-time converter is ideal for generating an ■ Uses Small Surface Mount Components output voltage that is close to the input voltage (i.e. a Li- ■ High Output Voltage: Up to 34V Ion to 5V converter, or a two-cell to 3.3V converter). With ■ Tiny 10-Pin MSOP Package an input voltage range of 1.2V to 15V, the LT1944-1 is ideal for a wide variety of applications. Both converters feature U a quiescent current of only 20µA at no load, which further APPLICATIO S reduces to 0.5µA in shutdown.
