LM2731

The LM2731 switching regulators are current-mode boost converters operating at fixed frequencies of 1.6 MHz ("X" option) and 600 kHz ("Y" option).

The use of SOT-23 package, made possible by the minimal power loss of the internal 1.8A switch, and use of small inductors and capacitors result in the industry's highest power density. The 22V internal switch makes these solutions perfect for boosting to voltages up to 20V.

These parts have a logic-level shutdown pin that can be used to reduce quiescent current and extend battery life. Protection is provided through cycle-by-cycle current limiting and thermal shutdown. Internal compensation simplifies design and reduces component count.
