LT1073

Micropower

DC/DC Converter

Adjustable and Fixed 5V, 12V

DESCRIPTIO

The LT®1073 is a versatile micropower DC/DC converter.

The device requires only three external components to

deliver a fixed output of 5V or 12V. The very low minimum

supply voltage of 1V allows the use of the LT1073 in

applications where the primary power source is a single

cell. An on-chip auxiliary gain block can function as a low-

battery detector or linear post-regulator.

Average current drain of the LT1073-5 used as shown in

the Typical Application circuit below is just 135µA un-

loaded, making it ideal for applications where long battery

life is important. The circuit shown can deliver 5V at 40mA

from an input as low as 1.25V and 5V at 10mA from a 1V

input.

The device can easily be configured as a step-up or step-

down converter, although for most step-down applica-

tions or input sources greater than 3V, the LT1173 is

recommended. Switch current limiting is user-adjustable

by adding a single external resistor. Unique reverse-

battery protection circuitry limits reverse current to safe,

nondestructive levels at reverse supply voltages up to

1.6V.
