MAX8646 Overview
Key Specifications
Mount Type: Surface Mount
Pins: 24
Operating Voltage: 3.6 V
Output Type (varies by manufacturer): Adjustable
Description
The MAX8646 high-efficiency switching regulator delivers up to 6A load current at output voltages from 0.6V to 0.9 x VIN. The IC operates from 2.35V to 3.6V, making it ideal for on-board point-of-load and postregulation applications.
Key Features
- fixed-frequency PWM mode operation with a switching frequency range of 500kHz to 2MHz set by an external resistor
- High-frequency operation allows for an all-ceramic capacitor design
- The high operating frequency also allows for small-size external components
- Following a simple layout and footprint ensures first-pass success in new designs
- The MAX8646 comes with a high bandwidth (> 14MHz) voltage-error amplifier
