Datasheet Summary
MAX16990/MAX16992
EVALUATION KIT AVAILABLE
36V, 2.5MHz Automotive Boost/ SEPIC Controllers
General Description
The MAX16990/MAX16992 are high-performance, current-mode PWM controllers with 4μA (typ) shutdown current for wide input voltage range boost/SEPIC converters. The 4.5V to 36V input operating voltage range makes these devices ideal in automotive applications such as for front-end “preboost” or “SEPIC” power supplies and for the first boost stage in highpower LED lighting applications. An internal low-dropout regulator (PVL regulator) with a 5V output voltage enables the MAX16990/MAX16992 to operate directly from an automotive battery input. The input operating range can be...
