DESCRIPTION

The SS6638G is a high-efficiency step-up DC/DC converter for applications using 1 to 4 NiMH

battery cells. Only three external components are required to deliver a fixed output voltage of 2.7V, 3.0V, 3.3V, 4.5V or 5V. The SS6638Gstarts up from less than 0.9V input with 1mA load. A Pulse Frequency Modulation scheme brings optimized performance for applications with light output loading and low input voltages. The output ripple and noise are lower compared with circuits operating in PSM mode.
