LTC3525L-3 OPERATIO
The LTC3525L-3 is a high performance Burst Mode operation only, synchronous boost converter requiring only three small external components. Its simplicity and small size make it a high efficiency alternative to charge pump designs. It is designed to start up from a single alkaline or nickel cell, with input voltages as low as 0.7V typical or 0.88V maximum, or from two or three cells (or a Li-ion battery), with voltages as high as 4.5V. Once started, VIN can be as low as 0.5V (depending on load current) and maintain regulation. The output voltage is preset internally to 3V. Peak switch current is 400mA minimum, providing regulation with load currents up to 160mA, depending on input voltage. Synchronous rectification provides high efficiency operation while eliminating the need for an external Schottky diode. True output disconnect eliminates inrush current at start-up, and allows VOUT to be disconnected from VIN, for zero shutdown current. The output disconnect feature also allows the LTC3525L-3 to maintain regulation with an input voltage equal to or greater than VOUT. Note, however, that the synchronous rectifier is not enabled in this mode resulting in lower efficiency and reduced output current capability. The operating quiescent current is only 7A typical, allowing the converter to maintain high efficiency at extremely light loads.
U
Shutdown The LTC3525L-3 is shut down by pulling SHDN below 0.3V, and made active by raising it above 0.88V. Note that SHDN can be driven as high as 6V, however, if it is more than 0.9V above the higher of VIN or VOUT, the SHDN input current will increase from zero to 1.5A. After the SHDN pin rises, there is a short delay before switching starts. The delay is 20s to 120s, depending on input voltage (see Typical Performance Characteristics curve). Start-Up A start-up oscillator allows the LTC3525L-3 to start with input voltages as low as 0.7V. It remains in start-up mode until two conditions are met. VOUT must exceed VIN by at least 0.2V typical and either VIN or VOUT must be greater than 1.8V typical. During startup, the synchronous rectifier is not enabled, and the internal P-channel synchronous rectifier acts as a follower, causing the peak voltage on SW to reach (VIN + 1V) typical. This limits inrush current by maintaining control of the inductor current when VOUT is less than VIN. To reduce power dissipation in the P-channel synchronous rectifier when the output is shorted, a foldback feature is incorporated that reduces the peak inductor current when VIN is more than 1.7V greater than VOUT.

Figure 1. Inductor Current Changing as a Function of Load
Normal Operation Once VOUT has increased more than 0.2V typical above VIN, and either voltage is above 1.8V, normal operation begins, with synchronous rectification enabled. In this mode, the internal N-channel MOSFET connected between SW and GND stays on until the inductor current reaches a maximum peak value, after which it is turned off and the P-channel synchronous rectifier is turned on. It stays on, delivering current to the output, until the inductor current has dropped below a minimum value at which point it turns off and the cycle repeats. When the output voltage reaches its regulated value both switches are turned off and the LTC3525L-3 goes to sleep, during which time the output capacitor supplies current to the load. Once the output voltage drops below the regulation value the IC leaves sleep mode and switching is resumed. The LTC3525L-3 has been designed for low output voltage ripple. The output voltage ripple is typically only 20mV peak-to-peak at light load and 60mV peak-to-peak at full load using the minimum recommended 10F output capacitor. An anti-ring circuit damps any oscillation at the switch node when the inductor current falls to zero.
Power Adjust Feature The LTC3525L-3 incorporates a feature that maximizes efficiency at light load while providing increased power capability at heavy load by adjusting the peak and valley of the inductor current as a function of load. Lowering the peak inductor current to 150mA at light load optimizes efficiency by reducing conduction losses in the internal MOSFET switches. As the load increases, the peak inductor current is automatically increased to a maximum of 400mA. At intermediate loads, the peak inductor current may vary from 150mA to 400mA. Figure 1 shows an example of how the inductor current changes as the load increases. Please note that output capacitor values greater than 47F will result in higher peak currents than necessary at light load. This will lower the light load efficiency. The valley of the inductor current is automatically adjusted as well, to maintain a relatively constant inductor ripple current. This keeps the switching frequency relatively constant.

LTC3525L-3 OPERATIO
The maximum average load current that can be supported is given by: IO(MAX) = 0.3 * VIN * Amps VO
Where is the efficiency (see Typical Performance Characteristics). The "burst" frequency (how often the LTC3525L-3 delivers a burst of current pulses to the load) is determined by the internal hysteresis (output voltage ripple), the load current and the amount of output capacitance. All Burst Mode operation or hysteretic converters will enter the audible frequency range when the load is light enough. However, due to the low peak inductor current at light load, circuits using the LTC3525L-3 do not typically generate any audible noise. Component Selection Inductor values between 4.7H and 15H are recommended. In most applications 10H will yield the best compromise between size and efficiency. The inductor should be a low-loss ferrite design and must be rated for peak currents of at least 400mA without saturating. Induc-
U
tors with lower DC resistance will improve efficiency. Note that the inductor value does not have a significant effect on ripple current, so while lower values will increase the operating frequency, they do not reduce output voltage ripple. Some recommended inductor examples are Murata LQH32C, Coilcraft LPO4812, LPO3310, DO3314, DS1608 and MSS4020, Sumida CDRH2D14 and Taiyo Yuden NR3015T. A ceramic input bypass capacitor should be located as close as possible to the VIN and GND pins of the IC. A minimum value of 1F is recommended. If the battery is more than a few inches away, a bulk tantalum decoupling cap of at least 10F is recommended on VIN. The output capacitor should also be a ceramic, located close to the VOUT and GND pins. A minimum value of 10F is recommended. Increasing the value of the output capacitor to 22F will result in lower output ripple. Higher capacitor values will only offer a small reduction in output ripple, while reducing light load efficiency by causing the peak inductor current to increase above its minimum value of 150mA. The input and output capacitors should be X5R or X7R types, not Y5V.
