The TPS6107x devices provide a power supply solution for products powered by either a one-cell, two-cell, or three-cell alkaline, NiCd or NiMH, or one-cell Li-ion or Li-polymer battery. Output currents can go as high as 75 mA while using a single-cell alkaline, and discharge it down to 0.9 V. It can also be used for generating 5 V at 200 mA from a 3.3 V rail or a Li-ion battery. The boost converter is based on a fixed frequency, pulse-width-modulation (PWM) controller using a synchronous rectifier to obtain maximum efficiency. At low load currents the TPS61070 and TPS61073 enter the power-save mode to maintain a high efficiency over a wide load current range. The power-save mode is disabled in the TPS61071 and TPS61072, forcing the converters to operate at a fixed switching frequency.
