Description
The MAX668/MAX669 constant-frequency, pulse-widthmodulating (PWM), current-mode DC-DC controllers are designed for a wide range of DC-DC conversion applications including step-up, SEPIC, flyback, and isolated-output configurations.
Features
- low operating current (220μA), adjustable operating frequency (100kHz to 500kHz), soft-start, and a SYNC input allowing the MAX668/MAX669 oscillator to be locked to an external clock. DC-DC conversion efficiency is optimized with a low 100mV current-sense voltage as well as with Maxim’s proprietary Idle Mode™ control scheme. The controller operates in PWM mode at medium and heavy loads for lowest noise and optimum efficiency, then pulses only as needed (with reduced inductor current) to reduce o.
