The LT1946AEMS8E is a fixed frequency step-up DC/DC converter containing an internal 1.5A, 36V switch. Capable of generating 12V at 430mA from a 5V input, the LT1946AEMS8E is ideal for powering large TFT-LCD panels. The LT1946AEMS8E switches at 2.7MHz, allowing the use of tiny, low profile inductors and low value ceramic capacitors. Loop compensation can be either internal or external, giving the user flexibility in setting loop compensation and allowing optimized transient response with low ESR ceramic output capacitors. Soft-start is controlled with an external capacitor which determines the input current ramp rate during start up. The 8-lead MSOP package and high switching frequency ensure a low profile overall solution less than 1.1mm high.
