AS1329 Product Brief L o w Vo l ta g e , M i c r o p o w e r, D C - D C St e p - U p C o n v e r t e r s 1 General Description 2 Key Features The AS1329A, AS1329B and the AS1329C are synchronous, fixed frequency, very high-efficiency DC-DC boost converters capable of supplying 3.3V at 160mA from a single AA-supply. Compact size and minimum external parts requirements make these devices perfect for modern portable devices. High-speed switching frequency (1.2MHz) and internally compensated PWM current mode design provide highlyreliable DC-DC conversion, especially when driving white LEDs. The converters are available as the standard products listed in Table 1. ! 95% Efficiency ! Single-Cell Operation ! Delivers 160mA @ 3.3V (from Single AA Cell) ! Delivers 220mA @ 5.0V (from Two AA Cells) ! Delivers 570mA @ 3.3V (from Two AA Cells) ! Low Start-Up Voltage: 0.85V ! High-Speed Fixed-Frequency: 1.2MHz ! Internal PMOS Synchronous Rectifier ! Automatic Powersave Operation (AS1329A&B) ! Continuous Switching at Light Loads (AS1329C) ! Anti-Ringing Control Minimizes EMI ! Logic Controlled Shutdown (< 1µA) ! Output Range: 2.5 to 5.0V ! 6-pin TSOT-23 Package Table 1. Standard Products Model Light Load Switching AS1329A Medium Load Automatic Powersave Operation AS1329B Light Load Automatic Powersave Operation AS1329C Continuous Switching The devices contain two internal MOSFET switches: one NMOS switch and one PMOS synchronous rectifier. Anti-ringing control circuitry reduces EMI by damping the inductor in discontinuous mode, and the devices exhibit extremely low quiescent current (< 1µA) in shutdown. In shutdown mode the battery is connected directly to the output enabling the supply of real-time-clocks. The AS1329 is available in a 6-pin TSOT-23 package. 3 Applications The AS1329 is ideal for low-power applications where ultra-small size is critical as in medical diagnostic equipment, hand-held instruments, pagers, digital cameras, remote wireless transmitters, MP3 players, LCD bias supplies, cordless phones, GPS receivers, and PC cards.
