Introduction

Industrial remote monitoring systems and keep-alive circuits spend most of their time in standby mode. Many of these systems also depend on battery power, so power supply efficiency in standby state is very important to maximize battery life. The LT8410/-1 high efficiency boost converter is ideal for these systems, requiring only 8.5μA of quiescent current in standby mode. The device integrates high value (12.4 M/0.4 M) output feedback resistors, ...
