®
3426 step-up switching regulator generates an
output voltage of up to 5.5V from an input voltage as low
as 1.6V. Ideal for applications where space is limited, it
switches at 1.2MHz, allowing the use of tiny, low cost and
low profile external components. Its internal 2A, 100mΩ
NMOS switch provides high efficiency even at heavy load,
while the constant frequency, current mode architecture
results in low, predictable output noise that is easy to filter.
Antiringing circuitry reduces EMI concerns by damping
the inductor while in discontinuous mode, and internal
soft-start eases inrush current worries. Internal frequency
compensation is designed to accommodate ceramic out-
put capacitors, further reducing noise. The device features
very low shutdown current of 0.5µA.
The LTC3426 is available in the 6-lead SOT-23 package.

OPERATIO
The LTC3426 is a monolithic 1.2MHz boost converter
housed in a 6-lead SOT-23 package. The device features
fixed frequency, current mode PWM control for excellent
line and load regulation. The low R
DS(ON)
NMOS switch
enables the device to maintain high efficiency over a wide
range of load current. Operation of the feedback loop
which sets the peak inductor current to keep the output in
regulation can be best understood by referring to the Block
Diagram in Figure 1. At the start of each clock cycle a latch
in the PWM logic is set and the NMOS switch is turned on.
The sum of a voltage proportional to the switch current
and a slope compensating voltage ramp is fed to the
positive input to the PWM comparator. When this voltage
exceeds either a voltage proportional to the 2A current
limit or the PWM control voltage, the latch in the PWM
logic is reset and NMOS switch is turned off. The PWM

Inductor Selection
The LTC3426 can utilize small surface mount inductors
due to its 1.2MHz switching frequency. A 1.5µH or 2.2µH
inductor will be the best choice for most LTC3426 appli-
cations. Larger values of inductance will allow greater
output current capability by reducing the inductor ripple
current. Increasing the inductance above 3.3µH will in-
crease component size while providing little improve-
ment in output current capability. The inductor current
ripple is typically set for 20% to 40% of the maximum
inductor current (I
P
). High frequency ferrite core inductor
materials reduce frequency dependent power losses com-
pared to cheaper powdered iron types, improving effi-
ciency. The inductor should have low DCR (DC resistance)

control voltage at the output of the error amplifier is the
amplified and compensated difference between the feed-
back voltage on the FB pin and the internal reference
voltage of 1.22V. If the control voltage increases, more
current is delivered to the output. When the control voltage
exceeds the I
LIMIT
reference voltage, the peak current is
limited to a minimum of 2A. The current limit helps protect
the LTC3426 internal switch and external components
connected to it. If the control voltage decreases, less
current is delivered to the output. During load transients
control voltage may decrease to the point where no
switching occurs until the feedback voltage drops below
the reference. The LTC3426 has an integrated soft-start
feature which slowly ramps up the feedback control node
from 0V. The soft-start is initiated when SHDN is pulled
high.

handle the peak inductor current without saturating.

Output and Input Capacitor Selection
Low ESR (equivalent series resistance) capacitors should
be used to minimize the output voltage ripple. Multilayer
ceramic capacitors are an excellent choice as they have
extremely low ESR and are available in small footprints. A
15µF to 30µF output capacitor is sufficient for most
applications. X5R and X7R dielectric materials are pre-
ferred for their ability to maintain capacitance over wide
voltage and temperature ranges.
Low ESR input capacitors reduce input switching noise
and reduce the peak current drawn from the input supply.
It follows that ceramic capacitors are also a good choice
for input decoupling and should be located as close as
