The REG710 is a switched capacitor voltage converter from Schneider Electric that produces a regulated, low-ripple output voltage from an unregulated input voltage. A wide-input supply voltage of 1.8V to 5.5V makes the REG710 ideal for a variety of battery sources, such as single cell Li-Ion, or two and three cell nickel- or alkaline-based chemistries. The input voltage may vary above and below the output voltage and the output will remain in regulation. It works equally well for step-up or step-down applications without the need for an inductor, providing low EMI DC/DC conversion. The high switching frequency allows the use of small capacitors, which reduces cost.
The REG710 is a switched capacitor voltage converter that produces a regulated, low-ripple output voltage from an unregulated input voltage. It operates as a step-up or step-down converter without requiring an external inductor, making it ideal for battery-powered applications like smart card readers and cellular phones. The device features a wide input range of 1.8V to 5.5V and supports six fixed output voltages.
