_______________General Description

The MAX746 is a high-efficiency, high-current, step-down

DC-DC power-supply controller that drives external N-chan-

nel FETs. It provides 93% to 96% efficiency from a 6V supply

voltage with load currents ranging from 50mA up to 3A. It

uses a pulse-width-modulating (PWM) current-mode control

scheme to provide precise output regulation and low output

noise. The MAX746's 4V to 15V input voltage range, fixed

5V/adjustable (Dual-Mode

) output, and adjustable current

limit make this device ideal for a wide range of applications.

High efficiency is maintained with light loads due to a propri-

etary automatic pulse-skipping control (Idle-Mode

) scheme

that minimizes switching losses by reducing the switching fre-

quency at light loads. The low 950µA quiescent current and

ultra-low 1.4µA shutdown current further extend battery life.

External components are protected by the MAX746's cycle-

by-cycle current limit. The MAX746 also features a 2V ±1.5%

reference, a comparator for low-battery detection or level

translating, and soft-start and shutdown capability.

The MAX747—discussed inaseparatedatasheet—

functions similarly to the MAX746, but drives P-channel logic

level FETs.
