In high-efficiency mode (N/E = low), the maximum
input voltage is limited to 7V. This voltage limitation is
easily overcome, however, by configuring the LBO out-
put to change modes based on input voltage, allowing
an 11V maximum input with high-efficiency configura-
tions. Four operating configurations are described in
Table 1 and in the following subsections.
Configuration 1: High Efficiency, 7V Max V
IN
With N/E connected to GND, when the IC boosts, the
linear regulator operates only as a switch, with mini-
mum forward drop, until V
IN
> V
OUT
(where linear regu-
lation begins). This configuration is limited to no more
than 7V input, but provides best efficiency for battery-
only operation or low-voltage AC adapter usage.
Configuration 2: High Efficiency, V
BATT
< V
OUT
In this configuration, N/E is driven high by LBO when
V
IN
> V
OUT
(Figure 2a). When V
IN
< V
OUT
, the IC
boosts, and the linear regulator operates as a switch,
with minimum forward drop. When V
IN
> V
OUT
, the lin-
ear regulator operates with V
FV
forward drop, while V
PS
increases by V
FV
so that OUT maintains regulation. V
FV
is set inside the IC to approximately 0.5V (at 5V V
OUT
).
When V
IN
is only slightly higher than V
OUT
, conversion
efficiency is poorer than in configuration 1, so configu-
ration 2 is most suitable when the battery voltage is less
than V
OUT
, but the AC adapter output is greater than
V
OUT
.
