DescripTion
The LTC
®
3525-3/LTC3525-3.3/LTC3525-5 are high efficiency
synchronous step-up DC/DC converters with output discon-
nect that can start up with an input as low as 0.85V. They
offer a compact, high efficiency alternative to charge pumps
in single cell or dual cell alkaline or Li-Ion applications. Only
three small external components are required. The LTC3525
is offered in fixed output voltages of 3V, 3.3V or 5V.
The device includes a 0.5Ω N-channel MOSFET switch and
a 0.8Ω P-channel synchronous rectifier. Peak switch current
ranges from 150mA to 400mA, depending on load, providing
enhanced efficiency. Quiescent current is an ultralow 7µA,
maximizing battery life in portable applications.
Other features include <1µA shutdown current, anti-
ringing control and thermal shutdown. The LTC3525 is
available in a tiny 6-Lead SC70 package.

Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2:
The LTC3525 is tested under pulsed load conditions such that
T
J
≈ T
A
. The LTC3525E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 85°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating
junction temperature range are assured by design, characterization and
correlation with statistical process controls. The LTC3525I is guaranteed
over the –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range. Note that
the maximum ambient temperature consistent with these specifications
is determined by specific operating conditions in conjunction with board
layout, the rated package thermal impedance and other environmental
factors. T
J
is calculated from the ambient temperature T
A
and power
dissipation P
D
according to the following formula:
T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
• 150°C/W)
Note 3:
Specification is guaranteed by design and not 100% tested in
production.
Note 4:
Current Measurements are performed when the LTC3525 is not
switching.
Note 5:
This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active.
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability.
Note 6:
Consult LTC Marketing for other output voltage options.
