The Pololu 3.3V Step-up Voltage Regulator U1V11F3 is a compact switching regulator designed to efficiently boost input voltages as low as 0.5 V to a stable 3 V output. It features a true shutdown capability, allowing complete power disconnection from the load, and automatically switches to a linear down-regulation mode when the input voltage exceeds the output.
This regulator is ideal for powering 3 V electronics from various battery types, including NiMH, NiCd, or lithium-ion cells. It offers high efficiency, typically ranging from 70% to 90%, and supports input currents up to 1.2 A. The device includes thermal shutdown protection to prevent overheating.
