2.5MHz Synchronous Boost Regulator
RT4803B
1 General Description
The RT4803B allows systems to take advantage of new battery chemistries that can supply significant energy when the battery voltage is lower than the required voltage for system power ICs. By combining built-in power transistors, synchronous rectification, and low supply current, this IC provides a compact solution for systems using advanced Li-Ion battery chemistries.
The RT4803B is a boost regulator designed to provide a minimum output voltage from a single-cell Li-Ion battery, even when the battery voltage is below the system minimum. In boost mode, output voltage regulation is guaranteed up to a maximum load current of 2000mA. The quiescent current in shutdown mode is less than 1A, which maximizes battery life.
