Rainbow Electronics MAX1730 - Manual

General Description
The MAX1730 regulated step-down charge pump gen-
erates up to 50mA at fixed output voltages of 1.8V or
1.9V from an input voltage in the 2.7V to 5.5V range.
Specifically designed to provide high-efficiency logic
supplies in applications that demand a compact
design, the MAX1730 employs fractional conversion
techniques to provide efficiency exceeding that of a lin-
ear regulator.
The MAX1730 operates at up to 2MHz, permitting the
use of small 0.22µF flying capacitors while maintaining
low 75µA quiescent supply current. Proprietary soft-
start circuitry prevents excessive current from being
drawn from the supply during startup, making the
MAX1730 compatible with higher impedance sources
such as alkaline and lithium-ion cells.
The MAX1730 is available in a space-saving 10-pin
µMAX package that is only 1.09mm high and occupies
one-half the area of an 8-pin SO.
