Setting the System Voltage in Boost Mode

In the boost mode, the system voltage can be

regulated to the value customer required

between 4.2V to 6V by the resistor divider at FB

pin as R1 and R2 in the typical application circuit.

Setting the Output Current Limit in Boost

Mode

In boost mode, connect a resistor from the OLIM

pin to AGND to program the output current limit.

Selecting the Inductor

Inductor selection trades off between cost, size,

and efficiency. A lower inductance value

corresponds with smaller size, but results in

higher ripple currents, higher magnetic hysteretic

losses, and higher output capacitances. However,

a higher inductance value benefits from lower

ripple current and smaller output filter capacitors,

but results in higher inductor DC resistance (DCR)

loss.

Choose an inductor that does not saturate under

the worst-case load condition.
