High-Efficiency Step-Up Converters with
Reverse Battery Protection
General Description
The MAX1832–MAX1835 are high-efficiency step-up
converters with complete reverse battery protection that
protects the device and the load when the battery is
reversed. They feature a built-in synchronous rectifier,
which allows for over 90% efficiency and reduces size
and cost by eliminating the need for an external
Schottky diode.
These step-up converters operate from a +1.5V to +5.5V
input voltage range and deliver up to 150mA of load cur-
rent. The MAX1833EUT/MAX1835EUT (SOT devices)
have a fixed 3.3V output voltage. The MAX1833ETT30
(TDFN device) has a fixed 3.0V output voltage. The
MAX1832/MAX1834 have adjustable outputs from +2V to
+5.5V. In shutdown, the MAX1832/MAX1833 connect the
battery input to the voltage output, allowing the input bat-
tery to be used as a backup or real-time clock supply
when the converter is off (see Selector Guide).
MAX183_EUT devices are available in a miniature 6-pin
SOT23 package. The MAX1833ETT30 is available in a
3mm
✕
3mm thin DFN package. The MAX1832EVKIT is
available to speed designs.

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.

and not production tested.
Note 2:
