1 General Description
The AS1322A and the AS1322B are synchronous, fixed
frequency, very high-efficiency DC-DC boost converters
capable of supplying 3.3V at 150mA from a single AA-
supply. Compact size and minimum external parts
requirements make these devices perfect for modern
portable devices.
High-speed switching frequency (1.2MHz) and internally
compensated PWM current mode design provide highly-
reliable DC-DC conversion, especially when driving
white LEDs.
The converters are available as the standard pr oducts
listed in Table 1.
The devices contain two internal MOSFET switches:
one NMOS switch and one PMOS synchronous rectifier.
Anti-ringing control circuitry reduces EMI by damping
the inductor in discontinuous mode, and the devices
exhibit extremely low quiescent current (< 1µA) in shut-
down.
The AS1322 is available in a 6-pin TSOT-23 package.

3 Applications
The AS1322 is ideal for low-power application s where
ultra-small size is critical as in medical diagnostic equip-
ment, hand-held instruments, pagers, digital cameras,
remote wireless transmitters, MP3 players, LCD bias
supplies, cordless phones, GPS receivers, and PC
cards.
