The LT
®
3464 is a micropower step-up DC/DC converter
with integrated Schottky diode and output disconnect
packaged in an 8-lead low profile (1mm) SOT-23. The
small package size, high level of integration, and the use
of tiny SMT components yield a solution size of less than
40mm
2
. The LT3464 has a typical current limit of 115mA
as well as fast switching speed to allow the use of a chip
inductor and small ceramic capacitors. The internal PNP
disconnects the output load from the input during shut-
down, and also provides output short-circuit protection.
An auxiliary reference input allows the user to override the
internal 1.25V feedback reference with any lower value,
allowing full control of the output voltage during opera-
tion. This device features a low 25
µA
quiescent current,
which is further reduced to less than 0.5µA in shutdown.
A current limited fixed off-time control scheme conserves
operating current, resulting in high efficiency over a broad
range of operating current. The rugged 36V switch and
output disconnect circuitry allow outputs up to 34V to be
easily generated in a simple boost topology.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
The LT3464E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the – 40°C to 85°C operating
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation
with statistical process controls.

PNP Emitter and Schottky Cathode. This pin
connects to the output capacitor, and optionally to the
external phase-lead capacitor.
SW (Pin 6):
Switch Pin and Schottky Anode. This is the
collector of the internal NPN power switch. Minimize the
