Stresses beyond those listed under "Absolute Maximum Ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
DescriptionThe MAX8716/MAX8717/MAX8757 are dual, stepdown,interleaved, fixed-frequency, switch-mode power-supply (SMPS) controllers with synchronous rectification.They are intended for main (5V/3.3V) and I/O power generation in battery-powered systems.
Fixed-frequency operation of MAX8717 with optimal interleaving minimizes input ripple current from the lowest input voltages up to the 26V maximum input. Optimal 40/60 interleaving allows the input voltage to go down to 8.3V before duty-cycle overlap occurs, compared to 180°out-of-phase regulators where the duty-cycle overlap occurs when the input drops below 10V.
Accurate output current of MAX8717 limit is achieved using a sense resistor. Alternatively, power dissipation can be reduced using lossless inductor current sensing.Independent ON/OFF controls and power-good signals allow flexible power sequencing. Soft-start reduces inrush current, while soft-stop gradually ramps the output voltage down preventing negative voltage dips.
A low-noise mode of MAX8717 maintains high light-load efficiency while keeping the switching frequency out of the audible range.
The MAX8716 is available in a 24-pin thin QFN package,and the MAX8717/MAX8757 are available in a 28-pin thin QFN package.
