DESCRIPTION
The LT
®
1317/LT1317B are micropower, fixed frequency
step-up DC/DC converters that operate over a wide input
voltage range of 1.5V to 12V. The LT1317 features auto-
matic shifting to power saving Burst Mode
TM
operation at
light loads. High efficiency is maintained over a broad
300µA to 200mA load range. Peak switch current during
Burst Mode operation is kept below 250mA for most
operating conditions which results in low output ripple
voltage, even at high input voltages. The LT1317B does
not shift into Burst Mode operation at light loads, eliminat-
ing low frequency output ripple at the expense of light load
efficiency.
The LT1317/LT1317B contain an internal low-battery de-
tector with a 200mV reference that stays alive when the
device goes into shutdown.
No-load quiescent current of the LT1317 is 100µA and
shuts down to 30µA. The internal NPN power switch
handles a 500mA current with a voltage drop of just
300mV.
The LT1317/LT1317B are available in MS8 and SO-8
packages.

The
q
denotes specifications which apply over the full operating
temperature range.
Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
Bias current flows into FB pin.
Note 3:
Switch current limit guaranteed by design and/or correlation to
static tests. Duty cycle affects current limit due to ramp generator.
Note 4:
Bias current flows out of LBI pin.
