MAX16963 Overview
Key Specifications
Mount Type: Surface Mount
Pins: 16
Operating Voltage: 5.5 V
Min Voltage (typical range): 2.7 V
Description
The MAX16963 is a high-efficiency, dual synchronous step-down converter that operates with a 2.7V to 5.5V input voltage range and provides a 0.8V to 3.6V output voltage range. The device delivers up to 1.5A of load current per output.
Key Features
- The 2.2MHz frequency operation allows for an all-ceramic capacitor design and small-size external components
- An optional spread-spectrum frequency modulation minimizes radiated electromagnetic emissions due to the switching frequency
- Following a simple layout and footprint ensures first-pass success in new designs
- The device is offered in a factory-preset output voltage or adjustable output-voltage version (see the Selector Guide for options)
- Additional features include 8ms fixed soft-start, 16ms fixed power-good delay, overcurrent, and overtemperature protections
