Description
The YB1517 is a Current-mode PWM step-up DC-DC converter. It can drive up to 18V in 20mA output current conditions while Vin at 3.0V and 20V at 3.5Vin. The 900 KHz switching frequency allows it to work with tiny external components, therefore minimize the footprint and cost in space consideration products.
