_____Standard Application Circuits
The predesigned MAX1624/MAX1625 circuits shown in
Figures 1 and 2 meet a wide range of applications with
output currents up to 12A and higher. Use Table 1 to
select components appropriate for the desired output
current range, and adapt the evaluation kit PC board
layout as necessary. Table 2 lists suggested vendors.
These circuits represent a good set of trade-offs
between cost, size, and efficiency while staying within
the worst-case specification limits for stress-related
parameters, such as capacitor ripple current.
These MAX1624/MAX1625 circuits were designed for
the specified frequencies. Do not change the switching
frequency without first recalculating component val-
ues—particularly the inductance, output filter capaci-
tance, and RC1 resistance values. Recalculate the
voltage-feedback resistor and compensation-capacitor
values (CC1 and CC2) as necessary to reconfigure
them for different output voltages. Table 3 lists voltage
adjustment DAC codes for the MAX1624.
_______________Detailed Description
The MAX1624/MAX1625 are BiCMOS switch-mode,
power-supply controllers designed for buck-topology
regulators. They are optimized for powering the latest
high-performance CPUs—demanding applications
where output voltage precision, good transient
response, and high efficiency are critical for proper
operation. With appropriate external components, the
MAX1624/MAX1625 deliver over 15A between 1.1V and
3.5V with ±1% accuracy. The MAX1625 offers 1% typi-
cal transient-load regulation from a +5V supply, while the
MAX1624 offers a selectable transient-load regulation of
0.5%, 1%, or 2%. Remote output sensing ensures volt-
age precision by eliminating errors caused by PC board
trace impedance. These controllers achieve 90% effi-
ciency by using synchronous rectification.
A typical application circuit consists of two N-channel
MOSFETs, a rectifier, and an LC output filter (Figure 1).
At each of the internal oscillator’s rising edges, the
high-side MOSFET switch (N1) is turned on and allows
current to ramp up through the inductor to the output
filter capacitor and load, storing energy in a magnetic
field. The current is monitored by reading the voltage
