_______________General Description
The MAX750A/MAX758A are adjustable-output, CMOS,
step-down, DC-DC switching regulators.
MAX758A accepts inputs from 4V to 16V and delivers
750mA, while the MAX750A accepts inputs from 4V to
11V and delivers 450mA. Typical efficiencies are 85%
to 90%. Typical quiescent current is 1.7mA, or only
6µA in shutdown mode. The output does not exhibit
any ripple at subharmonics of the switching frequency
over its specified range.
Pulse-width-modulation (PWM) current-mode control
provides precise output regulation and excellent tran-
sient responses. Output voltage accuracy is guaran-
teed to be ±4.5% plus feedback-resistor tolerance over
line, load, and temperature variations. Fixed-frequency
switching and absence of subharmonic ripple allows
easy filtering of output ripple and noise, as well as the
use of small external components. These regulators
require only a single inductor value to work in most
applications, so no inductor design is necessary.
