MAX17761
4.5V to 76V, 1A, High-Efficiency,
Synchronous Step-Down DC-DC Converter
General Description
The MAX17761, high-efficiency, high-voltage, synchronous
step-down DC-DC converter with integrated MOSFETs
operates over a 4.5V to 76V input. The converter can
deliver up to 1A current. Output voltage is programmable
from 0.8V up to 90% of VIN. The feedback voltage regula-
tion accuracy over -40°C to +125°C is ±1.5%.
The device features a peak-current-mode control architecture
and can be operated in either the pulse-width modulation
(PWM) or pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) control
schemes.
The MAX17761 is available in a 12-pin (3mm x 3mm)
TDFN package. Simulation models are available.
