General Description
The MAX1832–MAX1835 are high-efficiency step-up
converters with complete reverse battery protection that
protects the device and the load when the battery is
reversed. They feature a built-in synchronous rectifier,
which allows for over 90% efficiency and reduces size
and cost by eliminating the need for an external
Schottky diode.
These step-up converters operate from a +1.5V to
+5.5V input voltage range and deliver up to 150mA of
load current. The MAX1833/MAX1835 have a fixed
+3.3V output, and the MAX1832/MAX1834 have
adjustable outputs from +2V to +5.5V. In shutdown, the
MAX1832/MAX1833 connect the battery input to the
voltage output, allowing the input battery to be used as
a backup or real-time clock supply when the converter
is off (see Selector Guide).
The MAX1832–MAX1835 are available in a miniature 6-
pin SOT23 package. The MAX1832EVKIT is available to
shorten the design cycle.
