GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The
MT3608
is
a
constant
frequency,
6-pin
SOT23
current
mode
step-up
converter
intended
for
small,
low power applications. The MT3608 switches at
1.2MHz
and
allows
the
use
of
tiny,
low
cost
capacitors
and
inductors
2mm
or
less
in
height.
Internal
soft-start
results
in
small
inrush
current
and
extends battery life.
The
MT3608
features
automatic
shifting
to
pulse
frequency
modulation
mode
at
light
loads.
The
MT3608
includes
under-voltage
lockout,
current
limiting,
and
thermal
overload
protection
to
prevent
damage
in
the
event
of
an
output
overload.
The
MT3608 is available in a small 6-pin SOT-23 package.
