LM2731
0.6/1.6 MHz Boost Converters With 22V Internal FET
Switch in SOT-23
General Description
The LM2731 switching regulators are current-mode boost
converters operating at fixed frequencies of 1.6 MHz (“X”
option) and 600 kHz (“Y” option).
The use of SOT-23 package, made possible by the minimal
power loss of the internal 1.8A switch, and use of small
inductors and capacitors result in the industry’s highest
power density. The 22V internal switch makes these solu-
tions perfect for boosting to voltages up to 20V.
These parts have a logic-level shutdown pin that can be
used to reduce quiescent current and extend battery life.
Protection is provided through cycle-by-cycle current limiting
and thermal shutdown. Internal compensation simplifies de-
sign and reduces component count.
