The TPS61200DRCT is a 0.3V input voltage synchronous DC/DC boost converter with 1.5A switches from Texas Instruments. It is designed to enable portable electronic end-equipment to draw power from new ultra-low voltage or energy sources, such as solar and micro-fuel cells. The TI device's operating voltage range is 0.3V to 5.5V, allowing designers to support integrated boost ICs.

The TPS61200 provides a power supply solution for products powered by either a single-cell, two-cell, or three-cell alkaline, NiCd, or NiMH battery or one-cell Li-Ion or Li-polymer battery. It is also used in fuel cell or solar cell powered devices, where handling low input voltages is essential. Possible output currents depend on the input to output voltage ratio. For example, the TPS61200 provides output currents of up to 600mA at a 5V output, while using a single-cell Li-Ion or Li-Polymer battery and discharges it down to 2.6V.

The TPS61200 is a small and lightweight device, measuring only 3mm x 3mm. It is also very efficient, with a typical efficiency of over 90%. This makes it ideal for use in battery-powered devices, where power consumption is a critical concern.
