MAXM17543
4.5V to 42V, 2.5A High-Efficiency, DC-DC Step-
Down Power Module with Integrated Inductor
General Description
Benefits and Features
● Reduces Design Complexity, Manufacturing Risks,
The Himalaya series of voltage regulator ICs, power
modules, and chargers enable cooler, smaller, and sim-
pler power supply solutions. The MAXM17543 is an
easy-to-use Himalaya, step-down power module that
combines a switching power supply controller, dual
n-channel MOSFET power switches, fully shielded induc-
tor, and the compensation components in a low-pro-
file, thermally-efficient, system-in-package (SiP). The
device operates over a wide input voltage range of
4.5V to 42V and delivers up to 2.5A continuous output
currentwithexcellentlineandloadregulationoveranoutput
voltage range of 0.9V to 12V. The device only requires
five external components to complete the total power
solution. The high level of integration significantly reduces
design complexity, manufacturing risks, and offers a true
plug-and-play power supply solution, reducing time-to-
market.

The device can be operated in the pulse-width modulation
(PWM), pulse-frequency modulation (PFM), or discontinuous
conduction mode (DCM) control schemes.
● Operates Reliably in Adverse Industrial Environments
The MAXM17543 is available in a low-profile, highly
thermal-emissive, compact, 29-pin 9mm x 15mm x
2.8mm SiP package that reduces power dissipation in
the package and enhances efficiency. The package is
easily soldered onto a printed circuit board and suitable
for automated circuit board assembly. The device can
operate over the industrial temperature range from -40°C
to +125°C.
