Low IQ Inverting DC-to-DC Controllers
General Description
The MAX774/MAX775/MAX776 inverting switching
regulators deliver high efficiency over three decades of
load current. A unique current-limited, pulse-
frequency modulated (PFM) control scheme provides
the benefits of pulse-width modulation (high efficiency
with heavy loads), while using less than 100µA of supply
current (vs. 2mA to 10mA for PWM converters). The result
is high efficiency over a wide range of loads.
These ICs also use tiny external components; their high
switching frequency (up to 300kHz) allows for less than
5mm diameter surface-mount magnetics.
The MAX774/MAX775/MAX776 accept input voltages from
3V to 16.5V, and have preset output voltages of
-5V, -12V, and -15V, respectively. Or, the output voltage
can be user-adjusted with two resistors. Maximum
VIN - VOUT differential voltage is limited only by the break-
down voltage of the chosen external switch transistor.
These inverters use external P-channel MOSFET switches,
allowing them to power loads up to 5W. If less power is
required, use the MAX764/MAX765/MAX766 inverting
switching regulators with on-board MOSFETs.
