3 Description

The LM5150-Q1 device is a wide input range

automatic boost controller. The device is suitable

for use as a pre-boost converter which maintains

the output voltage from a vehicle battery during

automotive cranking or from a back-up battery during

the loss of vehicle battery.

The LM5150-Q1 switching frequency is programmed

by a resistor from 220 kHz to 2.3 MHz. Fast switching

(≥ 2.2 MHz) minimizes AM band interference and

allows for a small solution size and fast transient

response.

The LM5150-Q1 operates in low IQ standby mode

when the input or output voltage is above the preset

standby thresholds and automatically wakes up when

the output voltage drops below the preset wake-up

threshold.

The device transients in and out of the low IQ standby

mode to extend battery life at light load. A single

resistor programs the target output regulation voltage

as well as the configuration. Additional features

include low shutdown current, boost status indicator,

adjustable cycle-by-cycle current limit, and thermal

shutdown.
