General Description The G5177A is a compact, high-efficiency, synchro- nous step-up converter with power Mosfets embedded and with output shutdown and adjustable output cur- rent limiting with foldback for a single-cell Li-ion/polymer battery. The G5177A uses only 50μA (typ) quiescent current and allows the converter to switch only when needed at no load and light loads, and when load is higher than 100mA, it uses fixed-frequency PWM technique at 1MHz. It features a current mode control for fast transient response with intemal compensation. The G5177A includes cy- cle- by- cycle current limit to maximum inductor current and over-temperature protection circuit. The G5177A is suitable for iPad-like computers, smart phones and portable handheld devices. The G5177A is available in a 3mm X 3mm TDFN package. The operating temperature range is from -45°C to +85°C.
