0.8A step-up DC/DC converters in a tiny package
Torex Semiconductor's XC9141/XC9142 series of 0.8A step-up DC/DC converters come with an input–output disconnection function (load disconnection function) to prevent malfunctioning during standby, and for device functionality that enables power supply to RTC. When the output...
