_______________General Description
The MAX1640/MAX1641 CMOS, adjustable-output,
switch-mode current sources operate from a +5.5V to
+26V input, and are ideal for microprocessor-controlled
battery chargers. Charging current, maximum output
voltage, and pulse-trickle charge are programmed with
external resistors. Programming the off-time modifies
the switching frequency, suppressing undesirable har-
monics in noise-sensitive circuits. The MAX1640’s high-
side current sensing allows the load to connect directly
to ground, eliminating ground-potential errors. The
MAX1641 incorporates a low-side current sense.
The MAX1640/MAX1641 step-down pulse-width-modu-
lation (PWM) controllers use an external P-channel
MOSFET switch and an optional, external N-channel
MOSFET synchronous rectifier for increased efficiency.
An internal low-dropout linear regulator provides power
for the internal reference and circuitry as well as the
gate drive for the N-channel synchronous rectifier.
The MAX1640/MAX1641 are available in space-saving,
16-pin narrow QSOP packages.
