ZXSC410/ZXSC420/ZXSC440

DC-DC BOOST SWITCHING CONTROLLERS

Description

The ZXSC410/420/440 are DC-DC boost controllers. Their wide input

voltage range make suitable for operation from a number of battery

configurations including single Li-Ion cell and 2~3 alkaline/NiCd/NiMH

cells. Using high gain Diodes Zetex-brand switching npn-transistors

allow high voltage boost ratios and/or high output current depending

on transistor. The ZXSC410/440 has a shutdown feature that can also

be used for some dimming functionality. ZXSC420/440 includes an

End of Regulation flag that can be used to indicate when the regulator

is no longer able to maintain the regulated output voltage/current or

has reached the required current/voltage. The ZXSC440 combines

the features of the ZXSC410 and ZXSC420 into one device.
