MAX1651 Datasheet (Maxim) - Step-Down DC-DC Controllers

MAX1651, Step-Down DC-DC Controllers

The MAX1649/MAX1651 BiCMOS, step-down, DC-DC switching controllers provide high efficiency over loads ranging from 1mA to more than 2.5A.

A unique, currentlimited pulse-frequency-modulated (PFM) control scheme gives these devices the benefits of pulse-width-modulation (PWM) converters (high efficien
