Introduction

The expanding world of low voltage portable and microprocessor electronics has created the need for small, highly efficient, low cost, low voltage boost controllers with high current capabilities. The new LT1619, available in a tiny MS8 package, is a high current, low input voltage boost controller with a powerful rail-to-rail MOSFET driver and ultralow current-sense ...
