ST ST8R00 handbook

The ST8R00 is a synchronous PWM step-up DC-DC converter. The device is able to provide an output voltage in the range of 6 to 12 V with an input voltage from 4 to 6 V. It features adjustable output voltage, output current up to 1 A, low ripple voltage, and high efficiency. The high switching frequency (1.7 MHz) permits the use of tiny surface-mount components. In addition to the resistor divider to set the output voltage value, only an inductor and two capacitors are required. Moreover, a low output ripple is guaranteed by the current mode PWM topology and by the use of low ESR SMD ceramic capacitors. The device is available in a very small DFN8 (4 x 4 mm) package.
