SL1578 High Efficlency 1.2MHz Step-Up Converter
General Description
The SL1578 is a constant frequency, current mode step-up converter intended for small, low power applications. The SL1578 switches at 1.2MHz and allows the use of tiny, low cost capacitors and inductors 2mm or less in height. Internal soft-start results in small inrush current and extends battery life. The SL1578 includes under-voltage lockout, current limiting, and thermal overload protection to prevent damage in the event of an output overload. The SL1578 is available in a small 6-pin SOT23-6 package.
