• Description: 24V 100mA Step-Up Converter
• Manufacturer: Advanced Analog Technology, Inc.

S
The AAT1232 is programmed through the S
interface according to Table 2. The rising clock
edges received through the EN/SET pin determine
the feedback reference and output voltage set-
point. Upon power up with the SEL pin low and
prior to S
back reference voltage is set to 0.6V.
PCB Layout Guidelines
Boost converter performance can be adversely
affected by poor layout. Possible impact includes
high input and output voltage ripple, poor EMI per-
formance, and reduced operating efficiency. Every
attempt should be made to optimize the layout in
order to minimize parasitic PCB effects (stray
resistance, capacitance, inductance) and EMI cou-
pling from the high frequency SW node.
A suggested PCB layout for the AAT1232 boost
converter is shown in Figures 4 and 5. The follow-
ing PCB layout guidelines should be considered:

6. When using the TDFN34-16 package, connect
C2 negative terminal to the PGND pins. This is
especially true with output capacitor C2, which
conducts high ripple current from the output
diode back to the PGND pins.

tor R1 to maintain good output regulation. R3
should be routed close to the output GND pin.
