MAXM17904/MAXM17905/
MAXM17906
4.5V to 24V, 300mA Himalaya uSLIC
Step-Down Power Module
General Description
The Himalaya series of voltage regulator ICs and power
modules enable cooler, smaller, and simpler power-supply
solutions. The MAXM17904/MAXM17905/MAXM17906
are a family of high-efficiency, synchronous step-down
DC-DC modules with integrated controller, MOSFETs,
compensation components, and inductor that operate
over a wide input-voltage range. The modules oper-
ate from 4.5V to 24V input and deliver up to 300mA
output current. The MAXM17904 and MAXM17905 are
fixed 3.3V and 5V output modules respectively. The
MAXM17906 is an adjustable output (0.9V to 6.3V)
module. The modules significantly reduce design
complexity, manufacturing risks, and offer a true plug and
play power/supply solution, reducing time-to-market.
The MAXM17904/MAXM17905/MAXM17906 modules
employ peak-current-mode control architecture. To reduce
input inrush current, the modules offer a fixed 3.75ms
soft-start time.
The MAXM17904/MAXM17905/MAXM17906 modules
are available in a low profile, compact 10-pin, 2.6mm x
3mm x 1.5mm, uSLIC™ package.

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.

For the latest package outline information and land patterns (footprints), go to
www.maximintegrated.com/packages.
Note that a “+”,
“#”, or “-” in the package code indicates RoHS status only. Package drawings may show a different suffix character, but the drawing
pertains to the package regardless of RoHS status.
Note 1:
Junction temperature greater than +125°C degrades operating lifetimes.
Note 2:
Package thermal resistance is measured on an evaluation board with natural convection.
