PRODUCTION DATA.
The on/off regulation mode of the LM2623-Q1, along with its ultra-low quiescent current, results in good efficiency over a very wide load range. The internal oscillator frequency can be programmed using an external resistor to be constant or vary with the battery voltage. Adding a capacitor to program the frequency allows the designer to adjust the duty cycle and optimize it for the application. Adding a resistor in addition to the capacitor allows the duty cycle to dynamically compensate for changes to the input/output voltage ratio. This is called a ratio-adaptive gated-oscillator circuit. See the Typical Application for a sample application circuit. Using the correct RC components to adjust the oscillator allows the device to run with low ripple and high efficiency over a wide range of loads and input/output voltages.
