MAX16993
Step-Down Controller with
Dual 2.1MHz Step-Down DC-DC Converters
General Description
The MAX16993 power-management integrated circuit
(PMIC) is a 2.1MHz, multichannel, DC-DC convert-
er designed for automotive applications. The device
integrates three supplies in a small footprint. The device
includes one high-voltage step-down controller (OUT1)
designed to run directly from a car battery and two low-
voltage step-down converters (OUT2/OUT3) cascaded
from OUT1. Under no-load conditions, the MAX16993
consumes only 30µA of quiescent current, making it ideal
for automotive applications.
The high-voltage synchronous step-down DC-DC
controller (OUT1) operates from a voltage up to 36V
continuous and is protected from load-dump transients up
to 42V. There is a pin-selectable frequency option of either
2.1MHz or a factory-set frequency for 1.05MHz, 525kHz,
420kHz, or 350kHz. The low-voltage, synchronous step-
down DC-DC converters run directly from OUT1 and can
supply output currents up to 3A.
The device provides a spread-spectrum enable input
(SSEN) to provide quick improvement in electromagnetic
interference when needed. There is also a SYNC
input for providing an input to synchronize to
an external clock source (see the
Selector Guide).
The device includes overtemperature shutdown and
overcurrent limiting. The device also includes indi-
vidual
RESET_
outputs and individual enable inputs.
The individual
RESET_
outputs provide voltage
monitoring for all output channels.
The MAX16993 is available in a 32-pin TQFN/side-
wettable QFND-EP package and is specified for operation
over the -40°C to +125°C automotive temperature range.

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.
