Low Input/Output Voltage
Step-Up DC-DC Converter with RESET
General Description
The MAX1947 is a compact, high-efficiency, step-up DC-
DC converter that regulates output voltages from 1.8V to
3.3V to power µP/DSP cores, memory, and I/O rails in 1-
and 2-cell alkaline/NiMH/NiCd battery-powered systems.
It features an internal 800mA switch and synchronous
rectifier to achieve up to 94% efficiency and to eliminate
the need for an external Schottky diode.
High-frequency switching (up to 2MHz) results in low
ripple and small external components, while automatic
pulse skipping at light loads reduces supply current to
just 70µA for extended battery life. Maxim’s proprietary
True Shutdown™ reduces supply current to just 2µA
and fully discharges the output to ground. The convert-
er is offered in fixed-output voltages of 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.0V,
and 3.3V, requiring no feedback or compensation net-
work. A 75ms RESET output flag provides for power-on
reset (POR) and undervoltage detection. The MAX1947
is available in a space-saving 8-pin TDFN package.
