♦ 80mA Output from 1 Cell at 90% Efficiency
♦ 13µA Idle Mode™ (coast) Current
The MAX847 is a complete power-supply and monitor-
ing system for two-way pagers or other low-power digi-
tal communications devices. It requires few external
components. Included on-chip are:
♦ Selectable Low-Noise PWM or Low-Current
•
A 1-cell input, 80mA output, synchronous-rectified
boost DC-DC regulator with a digitally controlled
+1.8V to +4.9V output
Operation
♦ PWM Operating Frequency Synchronized to
Seven Times an External Clock Source
•
•
Three low-noise linear-regulator outputs
♦ Operates at 270kHz with No External Clock
♦ Automatic Backup-Battery Switchover
