Part Number: LM5122ZA
Hi Support team
My customer is looking for a solution that can accept an input from 4~5.5 volts and output 12 volts into a super cap (2mF). The idea is that they want to power the device from a current limited source and charge up a cap. They will use the energy in the cap to flash a LED. I can provide more details in a separate email. Max input current is 1.5A. The LM5122Z is perfect except for the start up at 4volts. If I disconnect the load just to get the output started and then reconnect the cap load can I use the part in this application (4 v start up)? Or is there another part that you can recommend. Key feature being the ability to set an input current limit?
Thanks
