High-Efficiency, Quad-Output, Main Power-
Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers
General Description
The MAX17003/MAX17004 are dual step-down, switch-
mode, power-supply (SMPS) controllers with synchro-
nous rectification, intended for main 5V/3.3V power
generation in battery-powered systems. Fixed-frequen-
cy operation 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 regula-
tors where the duty-cycle overlap occurs when the
input drops below 10V.
Output current sensing provides peak current-limit pro-
tection, using either an accurate sense resistor or using
lossless inductor DCR current sensing. A low-noise
mode maintains high light-load efficiency while keeping
the switching frequency out of the audible range.
An internal, fixed 5V, 100mA linear regulator powers up
the MAX17003/MAX17004 and their gate drivers, as well
as external keep-alive loads. When the main PWM regu-
lator is in regulation, an automatic bootstrap switch
bypasses the internal linear regulator, providing current
up to 200mA. An additional adjustable linear-regulator
driver with an external pnp transistor may be used with a
secondary winding to provide a 12V supply, or powered
directly from the main outputs to generate low-voltage
outputs as low as 1V.
Independent enable controls and power-good signals
allow flexible power sequencing. Voltage soft-start grad-
ually ramps up the output voltage and reduces inrush
current, while soft-discharge gradually decreases the
output voltage, preventing negative voltage dips. The
MAX17003/MAX17004 feature output undervoltage and
thermal-fault protection. The MAX17003 also includes
output overvoltage-fault protection.
The MAX17003/MAX17004 are available in a 32-pin,
5mm x 5mm, thin QFN package. The exposed backside
pad improves thermal characteristics for demanding
linear keep-alive applications.
