High-Efficiency, Quad Output, Main Power-
Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers
General Description
The MAX1777/MAX1977/MAX1999 dual step-down,
switch-mode power-supply (SMPS) controllers generate
logic-supply voltages in battery-powered systems. The
MAX1777/MAX1977/MAX1999 include two pulse-width
modulation (PWM) controllers, adjustable from 2V to 5.5V
or fixed at 5V and 3.3V. These devices feature two linear
regulators providing 5V and 3.3V always-on outputs.
Each linear regulator provides up to 100mA output cur-
rent with automatic linear regulator bootstrapping to the
main SMPS outputs. The MAX1777/MAX1977/MAX1999
include on-board power-up sequencing, a power-good
(PGOOD) output, digital soft-start, and internal soft-stop
output discharge that prevents negative voltages on shut-
down.
Maxim’s proprietary Quick-PWM™ quick-response, con-
stant on-time PWM control scheme operates without
sense resistors and provides 100ns response to load
transients while maintaining a relatively constant switch-
ing frequency. The unique ultrasonic pulse-skipping
mode maintains the switching frequency above 25kHz,
which eliminates noise in audio applications. Other fea-
tures include pulse skipping, which maximizes efficiency
in light-load applications, and fixed-frequency PWM
mode, which reduces RF interference in sensitive appli-
cations.
The MAX1777 features a 200kHz/5V and 300kHz/3.3V
SMPS for highest efficiency, while the MAX1977 features
a 400kHz/5V and 500kHz/3.3V SMPS for “thin and light”
applications. The MAX1999 provides a pin-selectable
switching frequency, allowing either 200kHz/300kHz or
400kHz/500kHz operation of the 5V/3.3V SMPSs, respec-
tively. The MAX1777/MAX1977/MAX1999 are available in
28-pin QSOP packages and operate over the extended
temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). The MAX1777/
MAX1977/MAX1999 are available in lead-free packages.
