SGM6603
90% Efficient Synchronous
Boost Converter with 1.1A Switch
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The SGM6603 is a constant frequency, current mode,
synchronous boost switching regulator. The input
voltage can accept the voltage at a range from 0.9V to
5.5V. And the output voltage is adjustable with a peak
of 5.5V. This device also has the 3.3V and 5.0V fixed
output versions.
● 0.9V to 5.5V Input Voltage Range
● 3.3V and 5.0V Fixed Output Voltages
● Adjustable Output Voltage up to 5.5V
● 90% Peak Efficiency
● 30µA (TYP) Quiescent Current
● 1μA (MAX) Shutdown Current
High switching frequency minimizes the sizes of
inductor and capacitor. Integrated power MOSFETs
and internal compensation make the SGM6603 simple
to use and fit the total solution into a compact space.
● 6V Output Voltage Clamping
● Improved Light Load Efficiency with Power-Save
Mode (PSM)
● Load Disconnected in Shutdown
The SGM6603 enters the power-save mode at light
loads to maintain high efficiency. Anti-ringing control
circuitry reduces EMI concerns by damping the inductor
in discontinuous mode. The SGM6603 provides true
output disconnection, allowing VOUT to go to zero volt
during shutdown without drawing any current from the
input source.
● Over-Temperature Protection
● Available in a Green SOT-23-6 Package
● -40℃ to +85℃ Operating Temperature Range
APPLICATIONS
Single-Cell Li Battery Powered Products

programmed by an external resistor divider, and those
of SGM6603-3.3/SGM6603-5.0 are fixed internally on
the chip. The device is available in a Green SOT-23-6
package. It operates over an ambient temperature
range of -40℃ to +85℃.

ESD SENSITIVITY CAUTION
This integrated circuit can be damaged if ESD protections are
not considered carefully. SGMICRO recommends that all
integrated circuits be handled with appropriate precautions.
Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures
can cause damage. ESD damage can range from subtle
performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision
integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage
because even small parametric changes could cause the
device not to meet the published specifications.

90% Efficient Synchronous
Boost Converter with 1.1A Switch
SGM6603
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Design
The SGM6603 is a synchronous boost converter
capable of starting up from 0.9V input, which is suitable
for majority of readily available input sources. The
device is capable of providing up to 5.5V output, and
the integrated power MOSFET has 1.1A (TYP) switch
current limit.
Startup
After enabling, the device works with a fixed duty cycle
of 50% and reduces current limit of 400mA until the
output voltage reaches to 2.3V. And then the current
limit will be set to 50% of its nominal value to avoid high
peak current drawn from the input during startup. The
current limit is gradually increased to the nominal value
as the output voltage reaches regulation target.
Output Voltage Configuration
The SGM6603 supports output voltage up to 5.5V, and
a resistor divider connected at FB pin is used to
configure the output voltage. The resistive divider value
is calculated via Equation 1.
VOUT − VFB
R1
=
VFB
R2
(1)
For simplicity, 100kΩ is recommended for R2. A 560kΩ
resistor for R1 configures the output voltage to 3.3V.
Inductor Selection
Inductor is an essential element for today’s DC/DC
switch mode power supplies regardless of topology.
Inductor serves as the energy storage element for
SG Micro Corp
www.sg-micro.com
power conversion. Inductance and inductor’s saturation
current are two most important criterions for inductor
selection. For general rule of thumb, the selected
inductance should provide a peak to peak ripple current
that is around 30% of the average inductor current at
full load and nominal input voltage. The average
inductor current for a boost converter is the input
current. Equation 2 shows the calculation of inductance
selection, where f is the switching frequency, ΔIL is the
inductor ripple current.
L=
VCC
ΔIL × fSW
× 1 -
VO
VIN
(2)
The selected inductor should have a saturation current
rating higher than the 1.1A current limit of SGM6603.
Lastly, the inductor affects the close loop response of
the DC/DC converter. The SGM6603 is an internally
compensated device with the loop response optimized
for inductor in the range of 2.2µH to 10µH.
Input Capacitor
Boost converter’s input capacitor sees continuous
current throughout the entire switching cycle. A 10µF
ceramic capacitor is recommended to place as close as
possible between the VCC pin and GND pin of
SGM6603. For the applications where the SGM6603 is
located far away from the input source, a 47µF or
higher capacitance capacitor is recommended to damp
the wiring harness’s inductance.

APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)
Output Capacitor
The output capacitors of boost converter dictate the
output voltage ripple and load transient response.
Equation 3 is used to estimate the necessary
capacitance to achieve desired output voltage ripple.
Where ΔV is the maximum allowed ripple.
CMIN =
I O × ( VOUT − VCC )
f × ΔV × VOUT
(3)
Again, the SGM6603 is an internally compensated
device. The loop response is optimized for capacitor in
the range of 4.7µF to 22µF. Due to the DC bias nature
of ceramic capacitors, care should be taken by verifying
manufacture’s datasheet to ensure enough effective
capacitance at desired output voltage.
Layout Guidelines
In addition to component selection, layout is a critical
step to ensure the performance of any switch mode
power supplies. Poor layout could result in system
instability, EMI failure, and device damage. Thus, place
the inductor, input and output capacitors as close to the
IC as possible, and use wide and short traces for
current carrying traces to minimize PCB inductance.
For boost converter, the output capacitor’s current loop
from VOUT pin back to the GND pin of the device
should be as small as possible.
