1613 is the industry’s first 5-lead SOT-23 current
mode DC/DC converter. Intended for small, low power
applications, it operates from an input voltage as low as
1.1V and switches at 1.4MHz, allowing the use of tiny, low
cost capacitors and inductors 2mm or less in height. Its
small size and high switching frequency enables the
complete DC/DC converter function to take up less than
0.2 square inches of PC board area. Multiple output power
supplies can now use a separate regulator for each output
voltage, replacing cumbersome quasi-regulated ap-
proaches using a single regulator and a custom trans-
former.
A constant frequency, internally compensated current
mode PWM architecture results in low, predictable output
noise that is easy to filter. The high voltage switch on the
LT1613 is rated at 36V, making the device ideal for boost
converters up to 34V as well as for Single-Ended Primary
Inductance Converter (SEPIC) and flyback designs. The
device can generate 5V at up to 200mA from a 3.3V supply
or 5V at 175mA from four alkaline cells in a SEPIC design.
The LT1613 is available in the 5-lead SOT-23 package.

The LT1613 is a current mode, internally compensated,
fixed frequency step-up switching regulator. Operation
can be best understood by referring to the Block Diagram.
Q1 and Q2 form a bandgap reference core whose loop is
closed around the output of the regulator. The voltage
drop across R5 and R6 is low enough such that Q1 and Q2
do not saturate, even when V
IN
is 1V. When there is no
load, FB rises slightly above 1.23V, causing V
C
(the error
amplifier’s output) to decrease. Comparator A2’s output
stays high, keeping switch Q3 in the off state. As increased
output loading causes the FB voltage to decrease, A1’s
output increases. Switch current is regulated directly on a
cycle-by-cycle basis by the V
C
node. The flip flop is set at
the beginning of each switch cycle, turning on the switch.
When the summation of a signal representing switch
current and a ramp generator (introduced to avoid
OPERATIO
U
subharmonic oscillations at duty factors greater than
50%) exceeds the V
C
signal, comparator A2 changes
state, resetting the flip flop and turning off the switch.
More power is delivered to the output as switch current is
increased. The output voltage, attenuated by external
resistor divider R1 and R2, appears at the FB pin, closing
the overall loop. Frequency compensation is provided
internally by R
C
and C
C
. Transient response can be opti-
mized by the addition of a phase lead capacitor C
PL
in
parallel with R1 in applications where large value or low
ESR output capacitors are used.
As the load current is decreased, the switch turns on for a
shorter period each cycle. If the load current is further
decreased, the converter will skip cycles to maintain
output voltage regulation.

LAYOUT
The LT1613 switches current at high speed, mandating
careful attention to layout for proper performance.
You
will not get advertised performance with careless layouts.
Figure 2 shows recommended component placement for
a boost (step-up) converter. Follow this closely in your
PCB layout. Note the direct path of the switching loops.
Input capacitor C1
must
be placed close (<5mm) to the IC
package. As little as 10mm of wire or PC trace from C
IN
to
V
IN
will cause problems such as inability to regulate or
oscillation.
The ground terminal of output capacitor C2 should tie
close to Pin 2 of the LT1613. Doing this reduces dI/dt in the
ground copper which keeps high frequency spikes to a
minimum. The DC/DC converter ground should tie to the
PC board ground plane at one place only, to avoid intro-
ducing dI/dt in the ground plane.
A SEPIC (single-ended primary inductance converter)
schematic is shown in Figure 3. This converter topology
produces a regulated output voltage that spans (i.e., can
be higher or lower than) the output. Recommended com-
ponent placement for a SEPIC is shown in Figure 4.

COMPONENT SELECTION
Inductors
Inductors used with the LT1613 should have a saturation
current rating (where inductance is approximately 70% of
zero current inductance) of approximately 0.5A or greater.
DCR of the inductors should be 0.5 or less. For boost
converters, inductance should be 4.7µH for input voltage
less than 3.3V and 10µH for inputs above 3.3V. When
using the device as a SEPIC, either a coupled inductor or
two separate inductors can be used. If using separate
inductors, 22µH units are recommended for input voltage
above 3.3V. Coupled inductors have a beneficial mutual
inductance, so a 10µH coupled inductor results in the
same ripple current as two 20µH uncoupled units.

LT1613
OPERATIO
U
Table 1 lists several inductors that will work with the
LT1613, although this is not an exhaustive list. There are
many magnetics vendors whose components are suitable
for use.
Diodes
A Schottky diode is recommended for use with the LT1613.
The Motorola MBR0520 is a very good choice. Where the
input to output voltage differential exceeds 20V, use the
MBR0530 (a 30V diode). If cost is more important than
efficiency, the 1N4148 can be used, but only at low current
loads.
Capacitors
The input bypass capacitor must be placed physically
close to the input pin. ESR is not critical and in most cases
an inexpensive tantalum is appropriate.
The choice of output capacitor is far more important. The
quality of this capacitor is the greatest determinant of the
output voltage ripple. The output capacitor must have
enough capacitance to satisfy the load under transient
conditions and it must shunt the switched component of
current coming through the diode. Output voltage ripple
results when this switched current passes through the
finite output impedance of the output capacitor. The
capacitor should have low impedance at the 1.4MHz
switching frequency of the LT1613. At this frequency, the
impedance is usually dominated by the capacitor’s equiva-
lent series resistance (ESR). Choosing a capacitor with
lower ESR will result in lower output ripple.
Ceramic capacitors can be used with the LT1613 provided
loop stability is considered. A tantalum capacitor has
some ESR and this causes an “ESR zero” in the regulator
loop. This zero is beneficial to loop stability. The internally
compensated LT1613 does not have an accessible com-
pensation node, but other circuit techniques can be em-
ployed to counteract the loss of the ESR zero, as detailed
in the next section.
Some capacitor types appropriate for use with the LT1613
are listed in Table 2.
OPERATION WITH CERAMIC CAPACITORS
Because the LT1613 is internally compensated, loop sta-
bility must be carefully considered when choosing an
output capacitor. Small, low cost tantalum capacitors
have some ESR, which aids stability. However, ceramic
capacitors are becoming more popular, having attractive
characteristics such as near-zero ESR, small size and
reasonable cost. Simply replacing a tantalum output ca-
pacitor with a ceramic unit will decrease the phase margin,
in some cases to unacceptable levels. With the addition of
a phase lead capacitor (C
PL
) and isolating resistor (R3),
the LT1613 can be used successfully with ceramic output
capacitors as described in the following figures.
A boost converter, stepping up 2.5V to 5V, is shown in
Figure 5. Tantalum capacitors are used for the input and
output (the input capacitor is not critical and has little

START-UP/SOFT-START
When the LT1613 SHDN pin voltage goes high, the device
rapidly increases the switch current until internal current
limit is reached. Input current stays at this level until the
output capacitor is charged to final output voltage. Switch
current can exceed 1A. Figure 16’s oscillograph details
start-up waveforms of Figure 17’s SEPIC into a 50 load
without any soft-start. The output voltage reaches final
value in approximately 200µs, while input current reaches
400mA. Switch current in a SEPIC is 2x the input current,
so the switch is conducting approximately 800mA peak.
Soft-start reduces the inrush current by taking more time
to reach final output voltage. A soft-start circuit consisting
of Q1, R
S1
, R
S2
and C
S1
as shown in Figure 17 can be used
to limit inrush current to a lower value. Figure 18 pictures

Figure 19, C
S
is increased to 33nF. Input current does not
exceed the steady-state current the device uses to supply
power to the 50 load. Start-up time increases to 4.3ms.
C

can be increased further for an even slower ramp, if
desired.
