Looking for a boost IC

[Things]

I'm working on a project at the moment where I need to be able to generate 5V from a single LiIon cell. But having a bit of a hard time finding an IC suitable.

Basically what I need is:

5V out from single cell LiIon
500mA current (preferably without heatsinking)
Active low shutdown pin (GND = off) (prefered, but active high can work too)
Load disconnect (load is disconnected from the battery when it's in shutdown)
Hand solderable package - basically anything but QFN/BGA/no exposed pins

Minimal external components, but not a big deal.

Suggestions?

I am severely partial to the MAX1771, but I am heavily biased to "works for everything" solutions when it comes to ICs (which for boost means external fet). It's active high shutdown, though.

The LT1370 is basically idiotproof, and easily hand solderable. Page 13 has a li ion to 5V example circuit.

I was going to open a thread like this lol. I need a boost driver that will provide 7+ volts and around 190ma. Any suggestions?

LT1370 works for that too.

I like the TPS61200 because it has an optional under voltage cutoff pin.
Can do 500mA without a problem
Has a (GND = off) enable.
Has load disconnect.
Minimal external components (5-8 depending on your configuration)

The only reason you may not like it is the DFN package, but they are still manageable by hand with thin solder and a fine tip. If you plan on hand soldering just make the pads really long so any extra solder wont bridge.

Edit: Should mention that if you hand solder it may not be able to handle 500mA because the underside wont be connected. Easy enough to reflow though.

Cheers everyone, I'll have a look. I've been looking at the tps61092, which granted is QFN but seems like a pretty neat chip, but seeing some better looking ones here
