An integrated circuit is disclosed including a primary input for receiving
an input voltage, a battery voltage input for receiving a battery voltage
signal and an output for providing an output voltage higher than the
battery voltage. First circuitry responsive to the input voltage is
provided for turning off the output voltage responsive to an input over
voltage condition. Second circuitry responsive to the battery voltage
signal is provided for turning off the output voltage responsive to a
battery over voltage condition. Third circuitry provides for over current
protection.
