MAX17577 & MAX17578 DC-DC Converters

Analog Devices MAX17577 and MAX17578 DC-DC Converters are high-efficiency, high-voltage, inverting, Himalaya synchronous DC-DC converters with integrated MOSFETs and internal compensation. The devices generate output voltages (V_OUT) from -0.9V to -36V and can deliver up to 1A of load current from a wide 4.5V to (60V - |V_OUT|) input- voltage range. The MAX17577 and MAX17578 both feature peak current-mode control architecture. The MAX17577 operates in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) at all loads; thus, providing a constant frequency operation. The MAX17578 operates in Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM) for superior efficiency at light loads. Low minimum on-time allows higher switching frequencies and small solution sizes.
