Current-Mode PWM Controllers with Integrated
Startup Circuit for Isolated Power Supplies
General Description
The MAX5014/MAX5015 integrate all the building
blocks necessary for implementing DC-DC fixed-fre-
quency isolated power supplies. These devices are
current-mode controllers with an integrated high-volt-
age startup circuit suitable for isolated telecom/industri-
al voltage range power supplies. Current-mode control
with leading-edge blanking simplifies control-loop
design and internal ramp compensation circuitry stabi-
lizes the current loop when operating at duty cycles
above 50% (MAX5014). The MAX5014 allows 85%
operating duty cycle and could be used to implement
flyback converters, whereas the MAX5015 limits the
operating duty cycle to less than 50% and can be used
in single-ended forward converters. A high-voltage
startup circuit allows these devices to draw power
directly from the 18V to 110V input supply during start-
up. The switching frequency is internally trimmed to
275kHz ±10%, thus reducing magnetics and filter com-
ponent costs.
The MAX5014/MAX5015 are available in 8-pin SO
packages. An evaluation kit (MAX5015EVKIT) is also
available.
Warning:
The MAX5014/MAX5015 are designed to
operate with high voltages. Exercise caution.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
