The AMS6101 is an adjustable step-up DC/DC converter with a 2A internal switch from Advanced Monolithic Systems, Inc. It supports an input voltage as low as 2.7V and an output voltage up to 23V, making it ideal for biasing TFT displays.
The AMS6101 is an adjustable step‑up DC/DC converter featuring a 2 A internal switch and the ability to set the output voltage up to 23 V, making it suitable for biasing TFT displays and other portable applications. It operates at switching frequencies around 600 kHz, allowing easy filtering and low noise, and includes an external compensation pin for flexible frequency control.
The device is supplied in a low‑profile 8‑lead SOIC plastic package and provides over‑temperature protection, shutdown control via the EN pin, and a range of electrical specifications such as a maximum input voltage of 15 V, quiescent current of about 1.3 mA (typical 2.0 mA), and a maximum junction temperature of 150 °C.
