3 Description

The TPS6122x family devices provide a power-supply

solution for products powered by either a single-cell,

two-cell, or three-cell alkaline, NiCd or NiMH, or one-

cell Li-Ion or Li-polymer battery. Possible output

currents depend on the input-to-output voltage ratio.

The boost converter is based on a hysteretic

controller topology using synchronous rectification to obtain maximum efficiency at minimal quiescent

currents. The output voltage of the adjustable version

can be programmed by an external resistor divider, or

is set internally to a fixed output voltage. The converter can be switched off by a featured enable

pin. While being switched off, battery drain is

minimized. The device is offered in a 6-pin SC-70

package (DCK) measuring 2 mm x 2 mm to enable

small circuit layout size.
