MAX20416
2.2MHz Dual-Output, Low-Voltage Step-Down
Converters
General Description
Benefits and Features
The MAX20416 is a high-efficiency, dual-output, low-volt-
age DC-DC converter. The synchronous step-down con-
verters operate from a 3.0V to 5.5V input voltage range
and provide a 0.8V to 3.8V output voltage range at up to
3A. The buck converters achieve ±1.5% output error over
load, line, and temperature range.
● Multiple Functions for Small Size
• Dual Synchronous Buck Converters Up to 3A
• Fixed Output Voltage from 0.8V to 3.8V
• Resistor-Adjustable Output Voltage
• 3.0V to 5.5V Operating Supply Voltage
• 2.2MHz Operation
• 93% ±3% Undervoltage Threshold
• 107% ±3% Overvoltage Threshold
• Individual EN Inputs and RESET_ Outputs
The IC features a 2.2MHz fixed-frequency pulse-width
modulation (PWM) mode for better noise immunity and
load-transient response, and a pulse-frequency modula-
tion mode (skip) for increased efficiency during light-load
operation. The 2.2MHz frequency operation allows for use
of all-ceramic capacitors, minimizing the external compo-
nent footprint. Programmable spread-spectrum-frequen-
cy modulation minimizes radiated electromagnetic emis-
● High Precision
• ±1.5% Output-Voltage Accuracy
• Good Load-Transient Performance for Buck
Converters
● Robust for the Automotive Environment
• Current-Mode, Forced-PWM, and Skip Operation
• Overtemperature and Short-Circuit Protection
• 4mm x 4mm 24-Pin TQFN
sions. Integrated low R
switches improve efficiency
DS(ON)
at heavy loads and make the layout a much simpler task
with respect to discrete solutions.
The IC is offered with factory-preset or resistor-adjustable
output voltages. Additional features include soft-start
ramping, overcurrent limiting, and overtemperature pro-
tection. The MAX20416 is available in a lead(Pb)-free,
24-pin TQFN package (see the Ordering Information/Se-
lectorGuide for available options).
• 40°C to +125°C Automotive Temperature Range
