4.5V to 60V, 3.5A, High-Efficiency,
MAX17573
Synchronous Step-Down DC-DC Converter
with Internal Compensation
to withstand load dump voltage perturbations. The
MAX17573 has integrated FETS, integrated
compensation, and can support up to 60V on the
input pin, making the solution robust and reliable.
Product Highlights
•
Reduces External Components and Total Cost
• No Schottky-Synchronous Operation
• Internal Loop Compensation
•
General Point of Load
• All-Ceramic Capacitors, Compact Layout
General point of load applies to a switching regulator
that serves many applications and design
environments. The robustness of the power
conversion is critical to any environment. With a wide
-40°C to +125°C Ambient Operating Temperature
Range/-40°C to +150°C Junction Temperature
Range, current limit protection, and overtemperature
protection, the MAX17573 delivers a small, highly
efficient power conversion in the most adverse
environments and provides the designer the peace
of mind that it is robust and reliable.
•

Within the many different applications in the Factory
Automation space, one key need is the ability to
generate less heat. Heat within the system has to be
managed to prevent overheating and shutdown. The
MAX17573 produces less heat since it is a fully
synchronous integrated FETs DC-DC converter with
high efficiency.
