FEATURES
DESCRIPTIO
The LTC®3458L is a high efficiency, current mode, fixed
frequency, step up DC/DC converter with true output
disconnect and inrush current limiting. The LTC3458L is
rated for up to 6V output and includes a 0.2Ω N-channel
MOSFET switch and a 0.3Ω P-channel MOSFET synchro-
nous rectifier. The LTC3458L is well suited for battery
powered applications and includes programmable output
voltage, switching frequency and loop compensation. The
oscillator frequency can be set up to 1.5MHz or synchro-
nized to an external clock.
