n
Input Voltage Range:
The LTC®3026 is a very low dropout (VLDO™) linear regula-
1.14V to 3.5V (with Boost Enabled)
tor that can operate at input voltages down to 1.14V. The
1.14V to 5.5V (with External 5V Boost)
device is capable of supplying 1.5A of output current with n
Low Dropout Voltage: 100mV at IOUT = 1.5A
a typical dropout voltage of only 100mV. To allow opera- n
Adjustable Output Range: 0.4V to 2.6V
tion at low input voltages the LTC3026 includes a boost n
Output Current: Up to 1.5A
converter that provides the necessary headroom for the n

internal LDO circuitry. n

Shutdown Disconnects Load from VIN and VBST Output current comes directly from the input supply to n

Low Operating Current: IIN = 950µA at VIN = 1.5V maximize efficiency. The boost converter requires only a n Low Shutdown Current: small chip inductor and ceramic capacitor for operation. IIN < 1µA (Typ), IBST = 0.1µA (Typ) Additionally, the boosted output voltage of one LTC3026 n Stable with 10µF or Greater Ceramic Capacitors can supply the boost voltage for other LTC3026s, thus n Short-Circuit, Reverse Current Protected requiring a single inductor for multiple LDOs. A user sup- n Overtemperature Protected plied boost voltage can be used eliminating the need for n Available in 10-Lead MSOP and 10-Lead an inductor altogether.
