These high-performance, dual/triple-output devices include onboard power-up sequencing, power-good signaling with delay, digital soft-start, secondary winding control, lowdropout circuitry, internal frequency-pensation networks, and automatic bootstrapping. Up to 97% efficiency is achieved through synchronous rectification and Maxim’s proprietary Idle Mode™ control scheme. Efficiency is greater than 80% over a 1000:1 load-current range, which extends battery life in system suspend or standby mode. Excellent dynamic response corrects output load transients within five clock cycles. Strong 1A on-board gate drivers ensure fast external n-channel MOSFET switching. These devices feature a logic-controlled and synchronizable, fixed-frequency, pulse-width-modulation (PWM) operating mode. This reduces noise and RF interference in sensitive mobile munications and pen-entry applications. Asserting the SKIP pin enables fixed-frequency mode, for lowest noise under all load conditions. The MAX8741/MAX8742 include two PWM regulators, adjustable from 2.5V to 5.5V with fixed 5.0V and 3.3V modes. All these devices include secondary feedback regulation, and the MAX8742 contains a 12V/120m A linear regulator. The MAX8741 includes a...
