_______________General Description
The MAX1822 high-side supply, using a regulated
charge pump, generates a regulated output voltage
11V greater than the input supply voltage to power
high-side switching and control circuits. The MAX1822
allows low-resistance N-channel MOSFETs (FETs) to be
used in circuits that normally require costly, less effi-
cient P-channel FETs and PNP transistors. The high-
side output also eliminates the need for logic FETs in
+5V and other low-voltage switching circuits.
A +3.5V to +16.5V input supply range and a typical qui-
escent current of only 150µA make the MAX1822 ideal
for a wide range of line- and battery-powered switching
and control applications where efficiency is crucial.
Also provided is a logic-level power-ready output (PR)
to indicate when the high-side voltage reaches the
proper level.
The MAX1822 comes in an 8-pin SO package and
requires three inexpensive external capacitors. The
MAX1822 is a pin-for-pin replacement to the MAX622.
