boost DC/DC converter with automatic PowerPath man-
agement optimized for multisource, low power systems.
At no load, the LTC3106 draws only 1.6µA while creating
an output voltage up to 5V from either input source.
If the primary power source is unavailable, the LTC3106
seamlessly switches to the backup power source. The
LTC3106 is compatible with either rechargeable or pri-
mary cell batteries and can trickle charge a backup battery
whenever there is an energy surplus available. Optional
maximum power point control ensures power transfer is
optimized between power source and load. The output volt-
age and backup voltage, V
STORE
, are programmed digitally,
reducing the required number of external components.
Zero power Shelf Mode ensures that the backup battery
will remain charged if left connected to the LTC3106 for
an extended time.
Additional features include an accurate turn-on voltage, a
power good indicator for V
OUT
, a user selectable 100mA
peak current limit setting for lower power applications,
thermal shutdown as well as user selectable backup power
and output voltages.

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 LTC3106 is tested under pulsed load conditions such that
T
J
≈T
A
. The LTC3106E is guaranteed to meet specifications from 0°C to 85°C
junction temperature. Specifications over the –40°C to 125°C operating
junction temperature range are assured by design, characterization and
correlation with statistical process controls. The LTC3106I is guaranteed over
the full –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range. The junction
temperature (T
J
) is calculated from the ambient temperature (T
A
) and power
dissipation (P
D
)according to the formula:
T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
)(θ
JA
°C/W)
where
θ
JA
is the package thermal impedance. Note the maximum ambient
temperature consistent with these specifications is determined by specific
operating conditions in conjunction with board layout, the rated package
thermal resistance and other environmental factors.
Note 3:
This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended to
protect the device during momentary overload conditions. The maximum
rated junction temperature will be exceeded when this protection is active.
Continuous operation above the maximum operating junction temperature
may impair device reliability or permanently damage the device.
Note 4:
Specification is guaranteed by design and not 100% tested in
production.
Note 5:
Failure to solder exposed backside of the package to the PC board
will result in a higher thermal resistance
Note 6:
Voltage transients on the switch pins beyond the DC limits
specified in Absolute Maximum Ratings are non-disruptive to normal
operation when using good layout practices as described elsewhere in the
data sheet and as seen on the demo board.
Note 7:
If PRI = GND, then charging is enabled on V
STORE
whenever
surplus energy is available from V
IN
. The OV and UV thresholds are the
maximum charge and discharge levels controlled by the LTC3106.
Note 8:
Some of the IC electrical characteristics are measured in an
open-loop test configuration that may differ from the typical operating
conditions. These differences are not critical for the accuracy of the
