The
LX1734
is
an
inverting
DC/DC current-mode controller. With
a 1A integrated switch, the LX1734
can generate large output currents in a
small
footprint.
The
LX1734
minimizes external component size
and cost by implementing a high
switching frequency of 1.2MHz, while
generating -5V at 250mA or -12V at
100mA.
The LX1734 operates in a dual
inductor inverting topology that filters
both the input side and output side
current.
Very low output voltage
ripple
approaching
1mVP-P
can
be
achieved when used in conjunction with
ceramic output capacitors.
Fixed frequency operation ensures a
clean output free from low frequency
noise typically present with charge pump
solutions. The low impedance output
remains within 1% of nominal during
large load steps. The 20V switch allows
high voltage outputs to be generated.
The LX1734 is available in the space
saving 5-lead SOT-23 package, enabling
a complete inverter function that utilizes
only 0.3 inches square of PCB space.
