MAX8570–MAX8575
The MAX8570 family of LCD step-up converters uses
an internal n-channel switch and an internal p-channel
output isolation switch. These converters operate from
a 2.7V to 5.5V supply voltage and deliver up to 28V at
the output.
A unique control scheme provides the highest efficien-
cy over a wide range of load conditions. The internal
MOSFET switch reduces external component count and
a high switching frequency (up to 800kHz) allows for
tiny surface-mount components. Three current-limit
options are available. The MAX8570 and MAX8572 use
a 110mA current limit to reduce ripple and component
size in low-current applications. For high-power require-
ments, the MAX8574 and MAX8575 use a 500mA cur-
rent limit and supply up to 20mA at 20V. The MAX8571
and MAX8573 use a 250mA current limit for a compro-
mise between ripple and power. Built-in safety features
protect the internal switch and down-stream compo-
nents from fault conditions.
Additional features include a low quiescent current and
a True Shutdown mode to save power. The MAX8570/
MAX8571/MAX8574 allow the user to set the output
voltage between 3V and 28V, and the MAX8572/
MAX8573/MAX8575 have a preset 15V output. These
step-up converters are ideal for small LCD panels with
low current requirements, but can also be used in other
applications. The MAX8571 evaluation kit is available to
help reduce design time.

Note 1:
Parameters are production tested at T
A
= +25°C. Limits over temperature are guaranteed by design.
Note 2:
Specified currents are measured at DC. Actual LX current limits are slightly higher in circuit due to current-limit comparator
delay. Actual currents (with 2µH) are 110mA (MAX8570/MAX8572), 250mA (MAX8571/MAX8573), and 500mA
(MAX8574/MAX8575).
