The TK651xx low power step-up DC-DC converter is
designed for portable battery powered systems, capable
of operating from a single battery cell down to 0.9 V. The
TK651xx provides the power switch and the control circuit
for a boost converter. The converter takes a DC input and
boosts it up to a regulated 2.7, 3.0 or 3.3 V output .
The output voltage is laser-trimmed. A Low Output Indicator
detector (LOI) monitors the output voltage and provides an
active low microprocessor reset signal whenever the
output voltage falls below an internally preset limit. An
internal Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) circuit is utilized to
prevent the inductor switch from remaining in the “on”
mode when the battery voltage is too low to permit normal
operation. Pulse Burst Modulation (PBM) is used to regulate
the voltage at the V
in which an oscillator signal is gated or not gated to the
switch drive each period. The decision is made just before
the start of each cycle and is based on comparing the
output voltage to an internally-generated bandgap
reference. The decision is latched, so the duty ratio is not
modulated within a cycle. The average duty ratio is
effectively modulated by the “bursting” and skipping of
pin of the IC. PBM is the process

pulses which can be seen at the SW pin of the IC. Special
care should be taken to achieve reliability through the use
of Oxide, double Nitride passivation. The TK651xx is
available in a miniature 6-pin SOT-23L-6 surface mount
package.
Customized levels of accuracy in oscillator frequency and
output voltage are available.

Note 1: Derate at 0.8 mW/oC for operation above TA = 25 oC ambient temperature, when heat conducting copper foil path is maximized on the printed
circuit board. When this is not possible, a derating factor of 1.6 mW/ °C must be used.

Above is the Final Test Circuit through which each of the production parts must pass. In this test circuit, the part is tested
against the specification limits in the data sheet (the min. and max. values in the Electrical Characteristics) at room
temperature, and is rejected if the tested values are outside the minimum (min.) and maximum (max.) values.
The Bench Test Circuits shown on the following pages are the circuits used most of the time to measure the typical (typ.)
values in the Electrical Characteristics section, and make the Typical Performance graphs.
Note: In measuring the oscillator frequency and the Max I
on the bench, the converter was loaded until “no pulse
OUT
skipping” mode was achieved.
