_______________General Description
The MAX782 is a system-engineered power-supply con-
troller for notebook computers or similar battery-powered
equipment. It provides two high-performance step-down
(buck) pulse-width modulators (PWMs) for +3.3V and +5V,
and dual PCMCIA VPP outputs powered by an integral fly-
back winding controller. Other functions include dual, low-
dropout, micropower linear regulators for CMOS/RTC back-
up, and three precision low-battery-detection comparators.
High efficiency (95% at 2A; greater than 80% at loads
from 5mA to 3A) is achieved through synchronous recti-
fication and PWM operation at heavy loads, and Idle-
Mode
TM
operation at light loads. It uses physically
small components, thanks to high operating frequen-
cies (300kHz/200kHz) and a new current-mode PWM
architecture that allows for output filter capacitors as
small as 30µF per ampere of load. Line- and load-tran-
sient response are terrific, with a high 60kHz unity-gain
crossover frequency allowing output transients to be
corrected within four or five clock cycles. Low system
cost is achieved through a high level of integration and
the use of low-cost, external N-channel MOSFETs. The
integral flyback winding controller provides a low-cost,
+15V high-side output that regulates even in the
absence of a load on the main output.
Other features include low-noise, fixed-frequency PWM
operation at moderate to heavy loads and a synchroniz-
able oscillator for noise-sensitive applications such as
electromagnetic pen-based systems and communicat-
ing computers. The MAX782 is a monolithic BiCMOS IC
available in fine-pitch, SSOP surface-mount packages.
