MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX608EPA Step-Up DC-DC Controller

The MAX608EPA+ is a low-voltage, step-up DC-DC controller available in an 8-pin DIP package. It supports a preset 5V or an adjustable output (from 3V to 16.5V) and is designed for high-efficiency power conversion. This BiCMOS device employs a combination of pulse frequency modulation and pulse width modulation control schemes to deliver high efficiency across a wide load current range. It features an external sense resistor and power transistor to customize output current capacity, with a shutdown mode that reduces supply current to a maximum of 5µA. Suitable for high-efficiency DC-DC converters, battery-powered applications, LCD bias generation, and portable communication devices, it operates over a supply voltage range of 1.8V to 16.5V, with a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. The device provides up to 85% efficiency at loads from 30mA to 1.5A, with an output power up to 10W, a maximum supply current of 110µA, and switching frequencies up to 300kHz.
