LT3473/LT3473A
Micropower 1A Boost
Converter with Schottky
and Output Disconnect
U
DESCRIPTIO
The LT®3473/LT3473A are micropower step-up DC/DC
converters with integrated Schottky diode and output
disconnect circuitry in low profile DFN packages. The
small package size, high level of integration and the use of
tiny SMT components yield a solution size of less than
2
50mm
25V at up to 80mA from a Li-Ion cell, while automatic Burst
Mode operation maintains efficiency at light load. An
auxiliary reference input (CTRL) allows the user to override the internal 1.25V feedback reference with any lower
value, allowing full control of the output voltage during
operation. A PGOOD pin sinks current when the output
voltage reaches 90% of final value.
The LT3473A includes two NPN transistors for generating
intermediate bias voltages from the output and is offered
in a 12-lead (4mm × 3mm) DFN package. The LT3473
does not include these NPNs and is offered in an 8-lead
(3mm × 3mm) package.
The rugged 36V switch and output disconnect circuitry
allow outputs up to 34V to be easily generated in a simple
boost topology.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: The LT3473EDD and LT3473AEDE are guaranteed to meet
performance specifications from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the
–40°C to 85°C operating temperature range are assured by design,
characterization and correlation with statistical process controls.
