KIT ATION EVALU E L B AVAILA
80V, 300mW Boost Converter and Current Monitor for APD Bias Applications
General Description
The MAX15031 consists of a constant-frequency pulsewidth modulating (PWM) step-up DC-DC converter with an internal switch and a high-side current monitor with high-speed adjustable current limiting. This device can generate output voltages up to 76V and provides current monitoring up to 4mA (up to 300mW). The MAX15031 can be used for a wide variety of applications such as avalanche photodiode biasing, PIN biasing, or varactor biasing, and LCD displays. The MAX15031 operates from 2.7V to 11V. The constant-frequency (400kHz), current-mode PWM architecture provides low-noise output voltage that is easy to filter.
