The MAX1710/MAX1711 step-down controllers are intended for core CPU DC-DC converters in notebook computers. They feature a triple-threat combination of ultra-fast transient response, high DC accuracy, and high efficiency needed for leading-edge CPU core power supplies. Maxim's proprietary QUICK-PWMTM quick-response, constant-on-time PWM control scheme handles wide input/output voltage ratios with ease and provides 100ns "instant-on" response to load transients while maintaining a relatively constant switching frequency. High DC precision is ensured by a 2-wire remote-sensing scheme that compensates for voltage drops in both ground bus and the supply rail. An on-board, digital-toanalog converter (DAC) sets the output voltage in compliance with Mobile Pentium II CPU specifications. The MAX1710 achieves high efficiency at a reduced cost by eliminating the current-sense resistor found in traditional current-mode PWMs. Efficiency is further enhanced by an ability to drive very large synchronousrectifier MOSFETs. Single-stage buck conversion allows these devices to directly step down high-voltage batteries for the highest possible efficiency. Alternatively, 2-stage conversion (stepping down the +5V system supply instead of the battery) at a higher switching frequency allows the minimum possible physical size. The MAX1710 and MAX1711 are identical except that the MAX1711 has a 5-bit DAC rather than a 4-bit DAC. Also, the MAX1711 has a fixed overvoltage protection threshold at VOUT = 2.25V and undervoltage protection at VOUT = 0.8V, whereas the MAX1710 has variable thresholds that track VOUT. The MAX1711 is intended for applications where the DAC code may change dynamically. |
