High-Efficiency, Quad-Output, Main Power-
Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers
General Description
The MAX8744/MAX8745 are dual step-down, switch-
mode, power-supply (SMPS) controllers with synchro-
nous rectification, intended for main 5V/3.3V power
generation in battery-powered systems. Fixed-frequen-
cy operation with optimal interleaving minimizes input
ripple current from the lowest input voltages up to the
26V maximum input. Optimal 40/60 interleaving allows
the input voltage to go down to 8.3V before duty-cycle
overlap occurs, compared to 180° out-of-phase regula-
tors where the duty-cycle overlap occurs when the
input drops below 10V.
Output current sensing provides peak current-limit pro-
tection, using either an accurate sense resistor or using
lossless inductor DCR current sensing. A low-noise
mode maintains high light-load efficiency while keeping
the switching frequency out of the audible range.
An internal, fixed 5V, 100mA linear regulator powers up
the MAX8744/MAX8745 and their gate drivers, as well
as external keep-alive loads. When the main PWM reg-
ulator is in regulation, an automatic bootstrap switch
bypasses the internal linear regulator, providing current
up to 200mA. An additional adjustable linear-regulator
driver with an external pnp transistor may be used with
a secondary winding to provide a 12V supply, or pow-
ered directly from the main outputs to generate low-
voltage outputs as low as 1V.
Independent enable controls and power-good signals
allow flexible power sequencing. Voltage soft-start
gradually ramps up the output voltage and reduces
inrush current, while soft-shutdown gradually ramps the
output voltage down, preventing negative voltage dips.
The MAX8744/MAX8745 feature output undervoltage
and thermal-fault protection. The MAX8744 also
includes output overvoltage-fault protection.
The MAX8744/MAX8745 are available in a 32-pin, 5mm
x 5mm, thin QFN package. The exposed backside pad
improves thermal characteristics for demanding linear
keep-alive applications.
