General Description
The MAX1820/MAX1821 low-dropout, pulse-width-mod-
ulated (PWM) DC-DC buck regulators are optimized to
provide power to the power amplifier (PA) in WCDMA
cell phones; however, they may be applied in many
other applications where high efficiency is a priority. The
supply voltage range is from 2.6V to 5.5V, and the guar-
anteed output current is 600mA; 1MHz PWM switching
allows for small external components, while skip mode
reduces quiescent current to 180µA with light loads.
The MAX1820 is dynamically controlled to provide vary-
ing output voltages from 0.4V to 3.4V. The circuit is
designed such that the output voltage settles in <30µs
for a full-scale change in voltage and current. The
MAX1821 is set with external resistors to provide any
fixed output voltage in the 1.25V to 5.5V range.
The MAX1820/MAX1821 include a low on-resistance
internal MOSFET switch and synchronous rectifier to
maximize efficiency and minimize external component
count; 100% duty-cycle operation allows for low dropout
of only 150mV at 600mA load, including the external
inductor resistance. The devices are offered in 10-pin
