The LT®1615/LT1615-1 are micropower step-up DC/DC
converters in a 5-lead SOT-23 package. The LT1615 is
designed for higher power systems with a 350mA current
limit and an input voltage range of 1.2V to 15V, whereas
the LT1615-1 is intended for lower power and single-cell
applications with a 100mA current limit and an extended
input voltage range of 1V to 15V. Otherwise, the two
devices are functionally equivalent. Both devices feature a
quiescent current of only 20µA at no load, which further
reduces to 0.5µA in shutdown. A current limited, fixed offtime control scheme conserves operating current, resulting in high efficiency over a broad range of load current.
The 36V switch allows high voltage outputs up to 34V to
be easily generated in a simple boost topology without the
use of costly transformers. The LT1615’s low off-time of
400ns permits the use of tiny, low profile inductors and
capacitors to minimize footprint and cost in space-conscious portable applications.

OPERATIO
The LT1615 uses a constant off-time control scheme to
provide high efficiencies over a wide range of output
current. Operation can be best understood by referring to
the block diagram in Figure 1. Q1 and Q2 along with R3 and
R4 form a bandgap reference used to regulate the output
voltage. When the voltage at the FB pin is slightly above
1.23V, comparator A1 disables most of the internal circuitry. Output current is then provided by capacitor C2,
which slowly discharges until the voltage at the FB pin
drops below the lower hysteresis point of A1 (typical
hysteresis at the FB pin is 8mV). A1 then enables the
internal circuitry, turns on power switch Q3, and the
current in inductor L1 begins ramping up. Once the switch
current reaches 350mA, comparator A2 resets the oneshot, which turns off Q3 for 400ns. L1 then delivers
current to the output through diode D1 as the inductor
current ramps down. Q3 turns on again and the inductor
4
current ramps back up to 350mA, then A2 resets the oneshot, again allowing L1 to deliver current to the output.
This switching action continues until the output voltage is
charged up (until the FB pin reaches 1.23V), then A1 turns
off the internal circuitry and the cycle repeats. The LT1615
contains additional circuitry to provide protection during
start-up and under short-circuit conditions. When the FB
pin voltage is less than approximately 600mV, the switch
off-time is increased to 1.5µs and the current limit is
reduced to around 250mA (70% of its normal value). This
reduces the average inductor current and helps minimize
the power dissipation in the LT1615 power switch and in
the external inductor and diode. The LT1615-1 operates in
the same manner, except the switch current is limited to
100mA (the A2 reference voltage is 12mV instead of
42mV).

Choosing an Inductor
Several recommended inductors that work well with the
LT1615 and LT1615-1 are listed in Table 1, although there
are many other manufacturers and devices that can be
used. Consult each manufacturer for more detailed information and for their entire selection of related parts. Many
different sizes and shapes are available. Use the equations
and recommendations in the next few sections to find the
correct inductance value for your design.

output voltages below 7V, a 4.7µH inductor is the best
choice, even though the equation above might specify a
smaller value. This is due to the inductor current overshoot that occurs when very small inductor values are
used (see Current Limit Overshoot section).
For higher output voltages, the formula above will give
large inductance values. For a 2V to 20V converter (typical
LCD Bias application), a 21µH inductor is called for with
the above equation, but a 10µH inductor could be used
without excessive reduction in maximum output current.
Inductor Selection—SEPIC Regulator
The formula below calculates the approximate inductor
value to be used for a SEPIC regulator using the LT1615.
As for the boost inductor selection, a larger or smaller
value can be used.

Inductor Selection—Boost Regulator
Current Limit Overshoot
The formula below calculates the appropriate inductor
value to be used for a boost regulator using the LT1615 or
LT1615-1 (or at least provides a good starting point). This
value provides a good tradeoff in inductor size and system
performance. Pick a standard inductor close to this value.
A larger value can be used to slightly increase the available
output current, but limit it to around twice the value
calculated below, as too large of an inductance will increase the output voltage ripple without providing much
additional output current. A smaller value can be used
(especially for systems with output voltages greater than
12V) to give a smaller physical size. Inductance can be
calculated as:
For the constant off-time control scheme of the LT1615,
the power switch is turned off only after the 350mA (or
100mA) current limit is reached. There is a 100ns delay
between the time when the current limit is reached and
when the switch actually turns off. During this delay, the
inductor current exceeds the current limit by a small
amount. The peak inductor current can be calculated by:
L=
VOUT − VIN(MIN) + VD
ILIM
tOFF
where VD = 0.4V (Schottky diode voltage), ILIM = 350mA or
100mA, and tOFF = 400ns; for designs with varying VIN
such as battery powered applications, use the minimum
VIN value in the above equation. For most systems with
 VIN(MAX) − VSAT 
IPEAK = ILIM + 
 100ns
L


Where VSAT = 0.25V (switch saturation voltage). The
current overshoot will be most evident for systems with
high input voltages and for systems where smaller inductor values are used. This overshoot can be beneficial as it
helps increase the amount of available output current for
smaller inductor values. This will be the peak current seen
by the inductor (and the diode) during normal operation.
For designs using small inductance values (especially at
input voltages greater than 5V), the current limit overshoot can be quite high. Although it is internally current

limited to 350mA, the power switch of the LT1615 can
handle larger currents without problem, but the overall
efficiency will suffer. Best results will be obtained when
IPEAK is kept below 700mA for the LT1615 and below
400mA for the LT1615-1.
Capacitor Selection
Low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) capacitors should
be used at the output to minimize the output ripple voltage.
Multilayer ceramic capacitors are the best choice, as they
have a very low ESR and are available in very small
packages. Their small size makes them a good companion
to the LT1615’s SOT-23 package. Solid tantalum capacitors (like the AVX TPS, Sprague 593D families) or OS-CON
capacitors can be used, but they will occupy more board
area than a ceramic and will have a higher ESR. Always use
a capacitor with a sufficient voltage rating.
Ceramic capacitors also make a good choice for the input
decoupling capacitor, which should be placed as close as
possible to the LT1615. A 4.7µF input capacitor is sufficient for most applications. Table 2 shows a list of several
capacitor manufacturers. Consult the manufacturers for
more detailed information and for their entire selection of
related parts.
Diode Selection
For most LT1615 applications, the Motorola MBR0520
surface mount Schottky diode (0.5A, 20V) is an ideal
choice. Schottky diodes, with their low forward voltage
drop and fast switching speed, are the best match for the
LT1615. For higher output voltage applications the 30V
MBR0530 can be used. Many different manufacturers
make equivalent parts, but make sure that the component
is rated to handle at least 0.35A. For LT1615-1 applications, a Philips BAT54 or Central Semiconductor CMDSH-3
works well.
Lowering Output Voltage Ripple
Using low ESR capacitors will help minimize the output
ripple voltage, but proper selection of the inductor and the
output capacitor also plays a big role. The LT1615 provides energy to the load in bursts by ramping up the
inductor current, then delivering that current to the load.
If too large of an inductor value or too small of a capacitor
value is used, the output ripple voltage will increase
because the capacitor will be slightly overcharged each
burst cycle. To reduce the output ripple, increase the
output capacitor value or add a 4.7pF feed-forward capacitor in the feedback network of the LT1615 (see the circuits
in the Typical Applications section). Adding this small,
inexpensive 4.7pF capacitor will greatly reduce the output
voltage ripple.
