National Semiconductor
Thanks, Stevez. I ordered an LM2621MM that fits the design criteria. I am still a bit confused, though. I will visit the web site again to see what else is necessary. They described the part as though it was a complete converter...no additional parts needed...??? :roll:
Yes, John1, I currently have the device working fine on 6v. However, I want to minimize the size and weight of this device. It will make it more usable. How "little" is the 6v Ni-Cad you are referring to? I would like to have at least 1850 mAh at 2.4 volts (Equivalent to 740 mAh at 6v).
I began what I thought was a simple project (with no electronics involved). This is all new to me. I thought I was in the clear after making a pulse generator. But, one more hurdle left. 8)
I appreciate your help.
