DESCRIPTION
The LX1734 is an inverting DC/DC current-mode controller. With a 750mA integrated switch, the LX1734 can generate large output currents in a small footprint. The LX1734 minimizes external component size and cost by implementing a high switching frequency of 1.0MHz, while generating -5V at 250mA.
When configured in the dual inductor inverting topology very low output voltage ripple approaching 1mVP-P can be achieved when used in conjunction with ceramic output capacitors. The dual inductor can be implemented as a coupled or separate cores.
