MAX1692
General Description
Features
♦ 1.2A High-Efficiency 2.2MHz DC-DC Converter
The MAX16922 power-management integrated circuit
(PMIC) is designed for medium power-level automotive
applications and integrates multiple supplies in a small
footprint. The device includes one high-voltage step-
down converter (OUT1) and three low-voltage cascad-
ed DC-DC converters (OUT2, OUT3, OUT4). OUT1 and
OUT2 are step-down DC-DC converters, and OUT3/
OUT4 are linear regulators. The device also includes a
reset output (RESET) and a high-voltage-compatible
enable input (EN).
3.7V to 28V Operating Supply Voltage
45V Load-Dump Protection
Output Voltage: 3.0V to 5.5V
♦ 600mA High-Efficiency 2.2MHz DC-DC Converter
2.7V to 5.5V Supply Voltage
Output Voltage: 1.0V to 3.9V
180° Out-of-Phase Operation
Forced-PWM and Auto-PWM Modes
♦ LDO Linear Regulators
OUT3: 1.0V to 4.15V at 300mA
OUT4: 1.0V to 4.15V at 300mA
Separate Inputs for Increased Efficiency
The 1.2A output high-efficiency, step-down DC-DC con-
verter (OUT1) operates from a voltage up to 28V contin-
uous and is protected from load-dump transients up to
45V. The 600mA output high-efficiency step-down DC-
DC converter (OUT2) runs from a voltage up to 5.5V.
The two 300mA LDO linear regulators offer low dropout
of only 130mV (typ). The power-good RESET output
provides voltage monitoring for OUT1 and OUT2.
♦ Enable Input
♦ RESET Output Monitoring on OUT1 and OUT2
♦ Overtemperature and Short-Circuit Protection
♦ Available in
5mm x 5mm x 0.8mm, 20-Pin TQFN-EP
4.5mm x 6.5mm, 20-Pin TSSOP-EP
OUT1 and OUT2 use fast 2.2MHz PWM switching and
small external components. The high-voltage converter
(OUT1) enters skip mode automatically under light
loads to prevent an overvoltage condition from occur-
ring at the output. The low-voltage synchronous DC-DC
converter (OUT2) can operate in forced-PWM mode to
prevent any AM band interference or high-efficiency
auto-PWM mode.
