Description
19-3357; Rev 0; 8/04 Dual-Phase MOSFET Drivers with Temperature Sensor General .
The MAX8702/MAX8703 dual-phase noninverting MOSFET drivers are designed to work with PWM controller ICs, such as the MAX8705/MAX8707, in notebook CPU.
Features
* o Dual-Phase MOSFET Driver o 0.35Ω (typ) On-Resistance and 5A (typ) Drive Current o Drives Large Synchronous-Rectifier MOSFETs o Integrated Temperature Sensor (MAX8702 Only) Resistor Programmable Open-Drain Driver Hot Indicator (DRHOT) o Adaptive Dead Time Prevents Shoot-Through o Selectable Pulse-S
Applications
* can either step down directly from the battery voltage to create the core voltage, or step down from a low-voltage system supply. The single-stage conversion method allows the highest possible efficiency, while the 2-stage conversion at higher switching frequency provides the minimum possible physic
