Recommendations:
  • MT3608
    • Pros: Very low VIN operation (down to ~2 V), small SOT-23-6 package, common on hobby modules.
    • Cons: Efficiency and output current taper off near VIN = 1.8 V; may struggle to sustain a full 1 A at lower VIN.
  • LM2577SX-ADJ/NOPB
    • Pros: Robust 3 A capability, adjustable output, good for VIN ≥ 3 V.
    • Cons: Higher minimum VIN (~3 V), larger TO-263-3 package.
  • TPS61088RHLR
    • Pros: High efficiency (>95 %), true full-load 1 A or more across VIN 1.8–6 V, integrated synchronous MOSFETs.
    • Cons: QFN-24 package (requires fine-pitch assembly), higher cost.

R1 is 1.8MOhms and i want an output voltage of 10V. What do I pick for R2? Here'...

To calculate the value for R2 that will set the output voltage (VOUTV_{OUT}) of the boost converter to 10V, we can rearrange the formula provided:
VOUT=1.233V×(1+R1R2)V_{OUT} = 1.233V \times \left( 1 + \frac{R1}{R2} \right)
Rearranging the formula to solve for R2:
R1R2=VOUT1.233V−1\frac{R1}{R2} = \frac{V_{OUT}}{1.233V} - 1
Given that R1 is 1.8MΩ (1,800,000Ω) and the desired output voltage is 10V:
R1R2=10V1.233V−1=8.104−1=7.104\frac{R1}{R2} = \frac{10V}{1.233V} - 1 = 8.104 - 1 = 7.104
Now we solve for R2:
R2=R17.104=1,800,000Ω7.104≈253,363ΩR2 = \frac{R1}{7.104} = \frac{1,800,000Ω}{7.104} ≈ 253,363Ω
Since standard resistor values might not exactly match this calculated value, you would typically select the nearest standard value. A common approach is to use a standard E-series value, such as E24 or E96 series, which provides a range of values at specified tolerance levels. The nearest E24 value to 253kΩ is 249kΩ or 255kΩ. You might select 249kΩ to provide a slightly higher output voltage than 10V, to account for possible tolerances, or if precision is critical, you could put two resistors in series or parallel to achieve the desired value as close as possible.
To summarize:
  • R2 calculated value: ≈ 253,363Ω
  • Possible standard E24 value: 249kΩ or 255kΩ
Please note that resistor tolerances may affect your output voltage, so if this is a precise application, make sure to use high-precision resistors or adjust the value of R2 as necessary after testing.
