ISL9120IR Buck-Boost Regulator
Renesas offers their ISL9120IR compact, high-efficiency, low-power buck-boost regulator
Renesas' ISL9120IR is an ultra-small, low-cost, very high-efficiency (up to 98%) buck-boost switching regulator with adaptive PFM architecture for low power consumer applications. The ISL9120 has automatic and forced bypass functionality for efficiency enhancement during standby mode. The product is designed to function as the power supply to system or to power system peripheral devices in portable battery powered consumer products. With the large input voltage range of 1.8 V to 5.5 V, it is optimized for any Li-ion or Li-polymer battery applications, but its low voltage input capability makes it ideal for other battery operated systems. This is a high-efficiency, low-cost, buck-boost product for portable and wearable products.
