MAX8614A/MAX8614B
Dual-Output (+ and -) DC-DC
Converters for CCD
_______________________________________________________________________________________ 9
Detailed Description
The MAX8614A/MAX8614B generate both a positive and
negative output voltage by combining a step-up and an
inverting DC-DC converter on one IC. Both the step-up
converter and the inverter share a common clock. Each
output is independently regulated.
Each output is separately controlled by a pulse-width-
modulated (PWM) current-mode regulator. This allows
the converters to operate at a fixed frequency (1MHz)
for use in noise-sensitive applications. The 1MHz
switching rate allows for small external components.
Both converters are internally compensated and are
optimized for fast transient response (see the Load-
Transient Response/Voltage Positioning section).
Step-Up Converter
The step-up converter generates a positive output volt-
age up to 24V. An internal power switch, internal True-
Shutdown load switch (PVP), and external catch diode
allow conversion efficiencies as high as 90%. The inter-
nal load switch disconnects the battery from the load
by opening the battery connection to the inductor, pro-
viding True Shutdown. The internal load switch stays on
at all times during normal operation. The load switch is
used in the control scheme for the converter and can-
not be bypassed.
