General Description
The G5111 boost converter is designed for small/ me-
dium size LCD panel of high bias voltage.
Due to a typical 20µA quiescent current and 2.5V~
6.5V supply voltage range, it is suitable for battery
powered portable applications. Such as PDAs and
Handheld Computers. When the IC sets to shutdown
mode, it only consumes less than 1µA.
Furthermore, the 350mA current limit, 500ns fixed
minimum off-time and tiny SOT23-5 package facili-
tates the use of smaller inductor and other sur-
face-mount components to minimize the PCB size in
those space-conscious applications.
To control the IC, no other external current is needed
for the shutdown pin. It typically consumes less than
1µA of full supply range.

Function Description
The G5111 is a boost converter with a NMOS
switch embedded (refer to Block Diagram). The
boost cycle is getting started when FB pin voltage
drop below 1.2V as the NMOS switch turns on.
During the switch on period, the inductor current
ramps up until 350mA current limit is reached. Then
turns the switch off, while the inductor current flows
through external schottky diode, and ramps down to
zero. During the switch off period, the inductor cur-
rent charges output capacitor and the output voltage
is boosted up. This pumping mechanism continues
cycle by cycle until the FB pin voltage exceed 1.2V
and entering the none switching mode. In this mode,
the G5111 consumes as low as 20uA typically to
save battery power.
Applications Information
Choosing an Inductor
There are several recommended inductors that work
well with the G5111 in Table 1. Use the equations and
recommendations in the next few sections to find the
proper inductance value for your design.

Inductor Selection—Boost Regulator
The appropriate inductance value for the boost regu-
lator application may be calculated from the following
equation. Select a standard inductor close to this
value.
VOUT-VIN(MIN)+VD
L = ILIM x tOFF
Where VD = 0.4V (Schottky diode voltage), ILIM =
350mA and tOFF = 500ns. A larger value can be used
to lightly increase the available output current, but limit
it to about twice the calculating value. When too large
of an inductor will increase the output voltage ripple
without providing much additional output current. In
varying VIN condition such as battery power applica-
tions, use the minimum VIN value in the above equa-
tion. A smaller value can be used to give smaller
physical size, but the inductor current overshoot will
be occurs (see Current Limit Overshoot section).
Inductor Selection—SEPIC Regulator
For a SEPIC regulator using the G5111, the approxi-
mate inductance value can be calculated by below
formula. As for the boost inductor selection, a larger or
smaller value can be used.
VOUT + VD
L = 2 ILIM x tOFF
Current Limit Overshoot
The G5111 use a constant off-time control scheme,
the power switch is turned off after the 350mA current
limit is reached. When the current limit is reached and
when the switch actually turns off, there is a 100ns
delay time. During this time, the inductor current ex-
ceeds the current limit by a small amount. The formula
below can calculate the peak inductor current.
VIN(MAX) - VSAT
IPEAK = ILIM + L x 100ns
Where VSAT = 0.25V (switch saturation voltage). When
the systems with high input voltages and uses smaller
inductance value, the current overshoot will be most
apparent. This overshoot can be useful as it helps
increase the amount of available output current. To
use small inductance value for systems design, the
current limit overshoot can be quite high. Even if it is
internally current limited to 350mA, the power switch of
the G5111 can operate larger currents without any
problem, but the total efficiency will suffer. The IPEAK is
keep below 500mA for the G5111 will be obtained
best performance.

Capacitor Selection
Low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) capacitors
should be used at the output to minimize the output
ripple voltage and the peak-to-peak transient voltage.
Multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) are the best
choice, as they have a very low ESR and are available
in very small packages. Their small size makes them a
good match with the G5111’s SOT-23 package. If
solid tantalum capacitors (like the AVX TPS, Sprague
593D families) or OS-CON capacitors are used, they
will occupy more volume than a ceramic ones and the
higher ESR increases the output ripple voltage. Notice
that use a capacitor with a sufficient voltage rating.
A low ESR surface-mount ceramic capacitors also
make a good selection for the input bypass capacitor,
which should be placed as close as possible to the
G5111. A 4.7µF input capacitor is sufficient for most
applications.
Diode Selection
For most G5111 applications, the high switching fre-
quency requires a high-speed rectifier Schottky diodes,
such as the Motorola MBR0530 (0.5A, 30V) with their
low forward voltage drop and fast switching speed, are
recommended. Many different manufacturers make
equivalent parts, but make sure that the component is
rated to operate at least 0.35A. To achieve high effi-
ciency, the average current rating of the Schottky di-
odes should be greater than the peak switching cur-
rent. Choose a reverse breakdown voltage greater
than the output voltage.
Lowering Output Voltage Ripple
The G5111 supplies energy to the load in bursts by
ramping up the inductor current, then delivering that
current to the load. To use low ESR capacitors will
help minimize the output ripple voltage, but proper
selection of the inductor and the output capacitor also
plays a big role. If a larger inductance value or a
smaller capacitance value is used, the output ripple
voltage will increase because the capacitor will be
slightly overcharged each burst cycle. To reduce the
output ripple, increase the output capacitance value or
add a 10pF feed-forward capacitor in the feedback
network of the G5111 (see the circuits in the Typical
Applications section). To add this small, inexpensive
10pF capacitor will greatly reduce the output voltage
ripple.
