The LTC®1516 is a micropower charge pump DC/DC
converter that produces a regulated 5V output from a 2V
to 5V supply. Extremely low supply current (12µ A typical
with no load, <1µA in shutdown) and low external parts
count (two 0.22µ F flying capacitors and two 10µ F capacitors at VIN and V
) make the LTC1516 ideally suited for
OUT
small, light load battery-powered applications. Typical
efficiency (VIN = 3V) exceeds 70% with load currents
between 50µ A and 50mA. Modulating the SHDN pin keeps
the typical efficiency above 70% with load currents all the
way down to 10µA.
The LTC1516 operates as either a doubler or a tripler
depending on VIN and output load conditions to improve
overall efficiency. The part has thermal shutdown and can
survive a continuous short from V
to GND. In shut-
OUT
down the load is disconnected from VIN.
The LTC1516 is available in an 8-pin SO package in both
commercial and industrial temperature grades.
