MAX8566
The MAX8566 high-efficiency switching regulator deliv-
ers up to 10A load current at output voltages from 0.6V
to (0.87 x V
IN
). The IC operates from 2.3V to 3.6V input
supplies, making it ideal for point-of-load applications.
The total output-voltage set error is less than ±1% over
load, line, and temperature.
The MAX8566 operates in pulse-width-modulation
(PWM) mode with a 250kHz to 2.4MHz switching fre-
quency range that is programmable by an external
resistor. The IC can be synchronized to an external
clock in the same frequency range using the SYNC
input. The high operating frequency minimizes the size
of external components. Using low-R
DS(ON)
n-channel
MOSFETs for both high- and low-side switches main-
tains high efficiency at both heavy-load and high-
switching frequencies.
The MAX8566 employs a voltage-mode control archi-
tecture with a high-bandwidth (> 10MHz) error amplifi-
er. The voltage-mode control architecture makes
switching frequencies greater than 1MHz possible,
achieving all-ceramic-capacitor designs to minimize PC
board space. The error amplifier works with Type 3
compensation to fully utilize the bandwidth of the high-
frequency switching to obtain fast transient response.
Adjustable soft-start time provides flexibility to minimize
input startup inrush current. An open-drain, power-
good (PWRGD) signal goes high when the output
reaches 90% of its regulation point.
The MAX8566 provides a SYNCOUT output to synchro-
nize a second MAX8566 or a second regulator switch-
ing 180° out-of-phase with the first to reduce the input
ripple current, which consequently reduces the input-
capacitance requirements. The MAX8566 also pro-
vides an external reference input (REFIN) for
output-tracking applications.
The MAX8566 is available in a 32-pin, 5mm x 5mm TQFN
package. The MAX8566 and all the required external
components fit into a footprint of less than 0.80in

Note 1:
LX has internal clamp diodes to PGND and IN. Applications that forward bias these diodes should take care not to exceed
the IC’s package power-dissipation limits.
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.
