Low Supply Current, Step-Up DC-DC Converters with True-Shutdown
General Description
The MAX1795/MAX1796/MAX1797 are high efficiency step-up DC-DC converters intended for small portable hand-held devices. These devices feature Maxim’s True-Shutdown™ circuitry, which fully disconnects the output from the input in shutdown, improves efficiency, and eliminates costly external components. All three devices also feature Maxim’s proprietary LX-damping circuitry for reduced EMI in noise-sensitive applications. For additional in-system flexibility, a battery monitoring comparator (LBI/LBO) remains active even when the DC-DC converter is in shutdown. The input voltage range is +0.7V to VOUT, where VOUT can be set from +2V to +5.5V. Startup is guaranteed from +0.85V.
