LT1949 600kHz, 1A Switch PWM DC/DC Converter U FEATURES DESCRIPTIO The LT (R)1949 is a fixed frequency step-up DC/DC converter with a 1A, 0.5 internal switch. Capable of generating 10V at 175mA from a 3.3V input, the LT1949 is ideal for generating bias voltages for large screen LCD panels. Constant frequency 600kHz operation results in a low noise output that is easy to filter and the 30V switch rating allows output voltage up to 28V using a single inductor. An external compensation pin gives the user flexibility in optimizing loop compensation, allowing small low ESR ceramic capacitors to be used at the output. The 8-lead MSOP and SO packages ensure a low profile overall solution. 1A, 0.5, 30V Internal Switch Operates with VIN as Low as 1.5V 600kHz Fixed Frequency Operation Low-Battery Detector Stays Active in Shutdown Low VCESAT Switch: 410mV at 800mA Pin-for-Pin Compatible with the LT1317B Small 8-Lead MSOP and SO Packages U APPLICATIO S LCD Bias Supplies GPS Receivers Battery Backup Portable Electronic Equipment Diagnostic Medical Instrumentation The LT1949 includes a low-battery detector that stays alive when the device goes into shutdown. Quiescent current in shutdown is 25A, while operating current is 4.5mA. , LTC and LT are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.

FB (Pin 2): Feedback Pin. Reference voltage is 1.24V. Connect resistor divider tap here. Minimize trace area at FB. Set VOUT according to: VOUT = 1.24V(1 + R1/R2). SHDN (Pin 3): Shutdown. Pull this pin low for shutdown mode (only the low-battery detector remains active). Leave this pin floating or tie to a voltage between 1.4V and 6V to enable the device. SHDN pin is logic level and need only meet the logic specification (1.4V for high, 0.4V for low). 4 GND (Pin 4): Ground. Connect directly to local ground plane. SW (Pin 5): Switch Pin. Connect inductor/diode here. Minimize trace area at this pin to keep EMI down. VIN (Pin 6): Supply Pin. Must be bypassed close to the pin. LBI (Pin 7): Low-Battery Detector Input. 200mV reference.

LT1949 Block Diagram U OPERATIO The LT1949 is a current mode, fixed frequency step-up DC/DC converter with an internal 1A NPN power transistor. Operation can best be understood by referring to the Block Diagram. At the beginning of each oscillator cycle, the flip-flop is set and the switch is turned on. Current in the switch ramps up until the voltage at A2's positive input reaches the VC pin voltage, causing A2's output to change state and the switch to be turned off. The signal at A2's positive input is a summation of a signal representing switch current and a ramp generator (introduced to avoid subharmonic oscillations at duty factors greater than 50%). If the load increases, VOUT (and FB) will drop slightly and the error amplifier will drive VC to a higher voltage, causing current in the switch to increase. In this way, the error amplifier drives the VC pin to the voltage necessary to satisfy the load. Frequency compensation is provided by an external series RC network connected between the VC pin and ground. Layout Hints The LT1949 switches current at high speed, mandating careful attention to layout for proper performance. You will not get advertised performance with careless layouts. Figure 4 shows recommended component placement for a boost (step-up) converter. Follow this closely in your PC layout. Note the direct path of the switching loops. Input capacitor C1 must be placed close (< 5mm) to the IC package. As little as 10mm of wire or PC trace from CIN to VIN will cause problems such as inability to regulate or oscillation. The ground terminal of output capacitor C2 should tie close to Pin 4 of the LT1949. Doing this reduces dI/dt in the ground copper which keeps high frequency spikes to a minimum. The DC/DC converter ground should tie to the PC board ground plane at one place only, to avoid introducing dI/dt in the ground plane. 5 LT1949 U OPERATIO LBI LBO GROUND PLANE C1 1 + VIN 8 R1 2 R2 SHUTDOWN LT1949 7 3 6 4 5 L1 MULTIPLE VIAs C2 GND VOUT 1949 F04 Figure 4. Recommended Component Placement for Boost Converter. Note Direct High Current Paths Using Wide PC Traces. Minimize Trace Area at Pin 1 (VC) and Pin 2 (FB). Use Multiple Vias to Tie Pin 4 Copper to Ground Plane. Use Vias at One Location Only to Avoid Introducing Switching Currents into the Ground Plane U U W U APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Low-Battery Detector The LT1949's low-battery detector is a simple PNP input gain stage with an open collector NPN output. The negative input of the gain stage is tied internally to a 200mV 5% reference. The positive input is the LBI pin. Arrangement as a low-battery detector is straightforward. Figure 5 details hookup. R1 and R2 need only be low enough in value so that the bias current of the LBI pin doesn't cause large errors. For R2, 100k is adequate. The 200mV reference can also be accessed as shown in Figure 6. The low-battery detector remains active in shutdown. 3.3V R1 VIN LBI LT1949 1M + LBO R2 100k 200k TO PROCESSOR - 2N3906 LT1949 VREF 200mV 200mV INTERNAL REFERENCE GND V - 200mV R1 = LB 2A VIN LBO LBI + 10k 10F GND 1949 F06 1949 F05 Figure 6.
