Description
The
LTC3105 is a high efficiency step-up DC/DC converter that can operate from
input voltages as low as 225mV. A 250mV start-up capability and integrated
maximum power point controller (MPPC) enable operation directly from low
voltage, high impedance alternative power sources such as photovoltaic cells,
TEGs (thermoelectric generators) and fuel cells. A user programmable MPPC set
point maximizes the energy that can be extracted from any power source. Burst
Mode operation, with a proprietary self adjusting peak current, optimizes
converter efficiency and output voltage ripple over all operating conditions.
The AUX
powered 6mA LDO provides a regulated rail for external microcontrollers and
sensors while the main output is charging. In shutdown, IQ is reduced to 10μA and integrated
thermal shutdown offers protection from overtemperature faults. The LTC3105 is
offered in 10-lead 3mm × 3mm × 0.75mm DFN and 12-lead MSOP packages. datasheet
