EL7512CY 10-Pin MSOP MDP0043
General Description
The EL7512C is a high frequency, high efficiency step-up DC:DC
regulator operated at fixed frequency PWM mode. With an integrated
1A MOSFET, it can deliver up to 600mA output current at up to 90%
efficiency. The adjustable switching frequency is up to 1.2MHz, making it ideal for DSL applications.
When shut down, it draws <3µA of current. This feature, along with
the minimum starting voltage of 2V, makes it suitable for portable
equipment powered by one lithium ion or 3 to 4 NiMH cells.
The EL7512C is available in a 10-pin MSOP package, with maximum
height of 1.1mm. With proper external components, the whole converter takes less than 0.25in2 PCB space.
This device is specified for operation over the full -40°C to +85°C
temperature range.

Pin Descriptions
Pin Number Pin Name Pin Function
1 PGND Power ground; connected to the source of internal N-channel power MOSFET
2 SGND Signal ground; ground reference for all the control circuitry; needs to have only a single connection to PGND
3 RT Timing resister to adjust the oscillation frequency of the converter
4 EN Chip enable; connects to logic HI (>1.6V) for chip to function
5 LBI Low battery input; connects to a sensing voltage, or left open if function is not used
6 LBO Low battery detection output; connected to the open drain of a MOSFET; able to sink 1mA current
7 SS Soft-start; connects to a capacitor to control the start of the converter
8 FB Voltage feedback input; needs to connect to resistor divider to decide V
9 VDD Control circuit positive supply
10 LX Inductor drive pin; connected to the drain of internal N-channel power MOSFET
