DescripTion
The LTC®3335 is a high efficiency, low quiescent current
(680nA) buck-boost DC/DC converter with an integrated
precision coulomb counter which monitors accumulated
batterydischargeinlonglifebatterypoweredapplications.
The buck-boost can operate down to 1.8V on its input and
provides eight pin-selectable output voltages with up to
50mA of output current.

The LTC3335 features a programmable discharge alarm
threshold. When the threshold is reached, an interrupt is
generated at the IRQ pin.
