DESCRIPTION

The A7506 is synchronous, fixed frequency, step-up

DC/DC converters delivering high efficiency in a SOT-26 package. Capable of supplying 3.3V at 100mA from a single AA cell input, the device contain an internal NMOS switch and PMOS synchronous rectifier.

A switching frequency of 1.0MHz minimizes solution footprint by allowing the use of tiny, low profile inductors and ceramic capacitors. The current mode

PWM design is internally compensated, reducing external parts count. The A7506 features continuous switching at light loads. The device features low shutdown current of under 1uA.

The A7506 is available in SOT-26 package
