General Description
The MAX5073 is a dual-output DC-DC converter with
integrated high-side n-channel power MOSFETs. Each
output can be configured either as a buck converter or a
boost converter. The device is capable of operating from
a wide 5.5V to 23V input voltage range. Each output is
programmable down to 0.8V in the buck mode and up to
28V in the boost mode with an output voltage accuracy
of ±1%. In the buck mode, converter 1 and converter 2
can deliver 2A and 1A, respectively. The output switching
frequency of each converter can be programmed from
200kHz to 2.2MHz to avoid harmonics in a radio power
supply or to reduce the size of the power supply. Each
output operates 180° out-of-phase thus reducing input-
capacitor ripple current, size, and cost. A SYNC input
facilitates external frequency synchronization. Moreover,
a CLKOUT output provides out-of-phase clock signal
with respect to converter 2, allowing four-phase operation
using two MAX5073 ICs in master-slave configuration.
The MAX5073 includes an internal digital soft-start that reduc-
es inrush current, eliminates output-voltage overshoot, and
ensures monotonic rise in output voltage during power-up.
The device includes individual shutdown and a power-good
output for each converter. Protection features include output
short-circuit protection for buck mode and maximum duty-
cycle limit for boost operation, as well as thermal shutdown.
The MAX5073 is available in a thermally enhanced 28-pin
thin QFN package that can dissipate 2.7W at +70°C ambi-
ent temperature. The device is rated for operation over the
-40°C to +85°C extended, or -40°C to +125°C automotive
temperature range.
