Application note
Designing with L6920DB, high efficiency
syncronous rectifier step-up converter
Introduction
The L6920DB is a high efficiency monolithic step-up switching converter IC especially
designed for battery powered applications, thanks to its minimum start-up of 0.8 V, and a
minimum operating voltage of 0.6 V.
It requires only three external components to realize the conversion from battery voltage to
the selected output voltage.
It has a minimum output voltage of 1.8 V, which is enough to supply even the most advanced
ASICs and microprocessors. The high switching frequency allows users to choose small
inductors and output capacitors for their designs. Supervisory functions include Reference
Voltage, Low Battery Detection, and Shutdown, which are provided with overcurrent
protection.
