MAX17083
Description
The MAX17083 is a fixed-frequency, current-mode, step-down regulator optimized for low-voltage, lowpower applications. This regulator features dual internal n-channel MOSFET power switches for high efficiency and reduced ponent count. External Schottky diodes are not required. An integrated boost switch eliminates the need for an external boost diode. The internal 25mΩ low-side power MOSFET easily supports continuous load currents up to 5A. The MAX17083 produces an adjustable 0.75V to 2.7V output voltage from the system’s 3.3V or 5V input supply. This step-down regulator uses a peak current-mode control scheme to eliminate the additional external pensation required by voltage-mode architectures, providing an easy-to-implement architecture without sacrificing fast transient response. The MAX17083 provides peak current-limit protection and operates in light-load pulse-skipping mode to maintain high efficiency under light-load conditions. Independent enable input and...
