NW23150P

The NW23150P is a high efficiency synchronous step-up converter that can provide up to 1.5A to a fixed output up to 5V from a low voltage source. Unlike most step-up converter, it incorporates circuits that disconnect the input from output, during shutdown, short-circuit, output current overloading, or other events when output is higher than the input. This eliminates the need for an external MOSFET and its control circuitry to disconnect the input from output, and provides robust output overload protection. And NW23150P also provides the flexibility of setting input peak current limit and thus, output current is limited.

A switching frequency of 1MHz minimizes solution footprint by allowing the use of tiny and low profile inductors and ceramic capacitors. An internal synchronous MOSFET provides highest efficiency and with a current mode control that is internally compensated, external parts count is reduced to minimal.

NW23150P is housed in a tiny SOT23-6 package.
