The SC104 is a micro power dc-dc step-up converter which converts an input voltage, in the range of 1.55V to 10V, to a constant current. The part features a range of user programmable voltages and currents including dynamic adjustment of the "constant" current. The converter is capable of generating output voltages as low as the input supply voltage and up to 38V. During shutdown, the part draws a typical 500nA standby current.
