The boost converter maintains a 6.0V output from the 3V lithium battery. The boost converter
operates at 2.4MHz and provides a well filtered output with minimal switching noise. The boost
converter can provide up to 1.25A to the load and is short circuit protected.
The load bypass switch is power MOSFET that sends the 6V input current directly to the output
when the 6V input is present. If the 6V input is not present, then the load bypass switch turns off
while the boost converter turns on and provides the 6V output.
If the input voltage falls below the low-voltage threshold, the load bypass switch turns off and the
boost converter will turn on. When the voltage rises above the low-voltage threshold, the boost
converter will turn back off and the load switch will turn on to provide current directly from the
power source to the load.
The supervisor circuit contains the switch threshold voltage sensors and the LED status monitors.
The supervisor circuit determines whether or not the boost converter will turn on if the input
voltage is not present. The push-button switch operation toggles between battery power on, or
battery off. With no input voltage present, the push-button switch can toggle the boost converter
to be on. Then when the dc input is applied, the boost converter will turn off and the input power
will go directly to the load and the battery charging circuit. If the input power is removed again, the
boost converter will automatically take over and supply energy from the battery to the load.
Pressing the push-button one more time will toggle the output to off.
