19-2297; Rev 1; 2/09
Dual, 180° Out-of-Phase, 1.4MHz, 750mA Step-
Down Regulator with POR and RSI/PFO
General Description
The MAX1970/MAX1971/MAX1972 dual-output current-
mode PWM buck regulators operate from 2.6V to 5.5V
input and deliver a minimum of 750mA on each output.
The MAX1970 and MAX1972 operate at a fixed 1.4MHz
(MAX1971 operates at 700kHz) to reduce output induc-
tor and capacitor size and cost. Switching the regula-
tors 180° out-of-phase also reduces the input capacitor
size and cost. Ceramic capacitors can be used for
input and output.
The output voltages are programmable from 1.2V to V
IN
using external feedback resistors, or can be preset to
1.8V or 3.3V for output 1 and 1.5V or 2.5V for output 2.
When one output is higher than 1.2V, the second can
be configured down to sub-1V levels. Output accuracy
is better than ±1% over variations in load, line, and tem-
perature. Internal soft-start reduces inrush current dur-
ing startup.
All devices feature power-on reset (POR). The
MAX1971 includes a reset input (RSI), which forces
POR
low for 175ms after RSI goes low. The MAX1970
and MAX1972 include an open-drain power-fail output
(PFO) that monitors input voltage and goes high when
the input falls below 3.94V. For USB-powered xDSL
modems, this output can be used to detect USB power
failure. A minimum switching frequency of 1.2MHz
ensures operation outside the xDSL band.

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.
