19-1794 Rev 0; 10/00 Compact, High-Efficiency, Dual-Output Step-Up DC-DC Converter General Description The MAX1817 is a compact, high-efficiency, dual-output step-up converter for portable devices that provides both the main logic supply and the LCD bias. The device operates from an input voltage of +1.5V to +5.5V, allowing the use of 2- or 3-cell alkaline batteries, or 1-cell lithium-ion (Li+) batteries. The MAX1817's main regulator supplies 125mA at either a preset 3.3V or an adjustable 2.5V to 5.5V output voltage with up to 88% efficiency. A 0.1A shutdown state also minimizes battery drain. The MAX1817's secondary step-up converter provides the LCD bias voltage and is adjustable up to +28V. Other features include a fast switching frequency to reduce the size of external components and a low quiescent current to maximize battery life. Both outputs can be independently shut down for improved flexibility. The MAX1817 is supplied in a compact 10-pin MAX package. The MAX1817 evaluation kit (MAX1817EVKIT) is available to speed up design.

LXLCD GND LX 10 OUT ________________ Detailed Description The MAX1817 dual step-up converter is designed to supply the main power and LCD bias for low-power, hand-held devices. The MAX1817's main step-up converter includes a 0.35 N-channel power MOSFET switch and provides a fixed 3.3V or adjustable 2.5V to 5.5V output at up to 125mA from an input as low as 1.5V. The MAX1817's LCD bias step-up converter includes a high-voltage 1.1 power MOSFET switch to support as much as 5mA at 28V (Figure 1). During startup, the MAX1817 extends the LCD MOSFET switch minimum off-time, limiting surge current. Both converters require an inductor and external rectifier. The MAX1817 runs in bootstrap mode, powering the IC from the main step-up converter's output. Independent logic-controlled shutdown for the main and LCD stepup converters reduces quiescent current to 0.1A. Main Step-Up Converter The MAX1817 main step-up converter runs from a +1.5V to +5.5V input voltage and produces a fixed 3.3V or adjustable 2.5V to 5.5V output voltage as well as biasing the internal control circuitry. The MAX1817 switches only as often as is required to supply sufficient power to the load. This allows the converter to operate at lower frequencies at light loads, improving efficiency. The control scheme maintains regulation when the error amplifier senses the output voltage is below the feedback threshold, turning on the internal N-channel MOSFET and initiating an on-time. The on-time is terminated when the 0.75A current limit is reached or when the maximum on-time is reached. The N-channel MOSFET remains off until the inductor current drops to 0, forcing discontinuous inductor current. At the end of a cycle, the error comparator waits for the voltage at FB to drop below the regulation threshold, at which time another cycle is initiated. The main step-up converter uses a startup oscillator to allow it to start from an input voltage as low as +1.2V. This is necessary since the control circuitry is powered from the step-up converter output (OUT). When the voltage at OUT is below the OUT undervoltage lockout, a fixed 50% duty cycle drives the internal N-channel MOSFET, forcing the main output voltage to rise.

MAX1817 Simplified Functional Diagram the output voltage rises above the undervoltage threshold, the control circuitry is enabled, allowing proper regulation of the output voltage. LCD Step-Up Converter The MAX1817's LCD step-up converter generates an LCD bias voltage up to 28V by use of a 500mA, 1.1 internal N-channel switching MOSFET (Figure 1). The LCD step-up converter control circuitry is powered from the main step-up converter output (OUT), so the voltage at OUT must be above the OUT undervoltage lockout voltage for the LCD step-up converter to operate. During startup, the MAX1817 extends the minimum offtime to 5s for VFBLCD voltages <0.9V, limiting initial surge current. The LCD step-up converter features an independent shutdown control, ONLCD. The LCD step-up converter features a minimum-offtime, current-limited control scheme. A pair of oneshots that set a minimum off-time and a maximum ontime governs the duty cycle. The switching frequency can be up to 500kHz and depends upon the load, and input and output voltages. 8 _______________________________________________________________________________________ Compact, High-Efficiency, Dual-Output Step-Up DC-DC Converter MAX1817 VIN C1 10F L2 10H L1 10H D1 D2 LCD 18V C2 1F VIN C1 10F L2 10H L1 10H D1 D2 LCD 18V C2 1F LX ON OFF OFF LCD ON MAIN ONLCD LXLCD 4.7pF C4 R1 1M LX ON OFF LXLCD 4.7pF C4 R1 1M FBLCD R2 75k MAIN 5V ON MAX1817 OUT R3 300k FB AGND GND R4 100k LCD ON MAIN ONLCD FBLCD R2 75k MAIN 3.3V C3 22F OFF ON MAX1817 OUT FB AGND GND C3 22F Figure 2. Setting Main Output Voltage Using External Resistors Figure 3. Typical Application Circuit Low-Voltage Startup The MAX1817's internal circuitry is powered from OUT. The main step-up converter has a low-voltage startup circuit to control main DC-DC converter operation until V OUT exceeds the 2.2V (typ) undervoltage lockout threshold. The minimum startup voltage is a function of load current (see Typical Operating Characteristics). The MAX1817 main converter typically starts up into a 35 load with input voltages down to +1.5V, allowing startup with two alkaline cells even in deep discharge. ___________________Design Procedure Setting the Main Output Voltage The main step-up converter feedback input (FB) features Dual Mode operation. With FB grounded, the main output voltage is preset to 3.3V. It can also be adjusted from 2.5V to 5.5V with external resistors R3 and R4 as shown in Figure 2. To set the output voltage externally, select resistor R4 from 10k to 100k. Calculate R3 using: R3 = R4 [(VOUT / VFB) - 1] where VFB = 1.25V, and VOUT can range from 2.5V to 5.5V. Shutdown: ON and ONLCD The MAX1817 features independent shutdown control of the main and LCD step-up converters. With both converters shut down, supply current is reduced to 0.1A. A logic low at ON shuts down the main step-up converter, and LX enters a high-impedance state. However, the main output remains connected to the input through the inductor and output rectifier, holding VOUT to one diode drop below the input voltage when the main converter is shut down. If the input voltage is sufficiently high to drive VOUT above the undervoltage lockout voltage, the LCD step-up converter operates. A logic low at ONLCD shuts down the LCD step-up converter, and LXLCD enters a high-impedance state. The LCD output remains connected to the input through the inductor and output rectifier, holding it to one diode drop below the input. Setting the LCD Output Voltage Set the LCD output voltage with two external resistors R1 and R2 as shown in Figure 3. Since the input leakage current at FBLCD has a maximum of 50nA, large resistors can be used without significant accuracy loss. Begin by selecting R2 in the 10k to 100k range, and calculate R1 using the following equation: R1 = R2 [(VLCD / VFBLCD ) - 1] where VFBLCD = 1.25V, and VLCD can range from VIN to 28V. _______________________________________________________________________________________ 9 Compact, High-Efficiency, Dual-Output Step-Up DC-DC Converter L1,10H VIN C1 10F L2 10H D2 LX D1** LXLCD R1 240k C4 10pF R2 16.5k C2 0.1F R3 1 C6 0.1F D3* -19V VLCD C5 1F D4* MAX1817 ONLCD ON FBLCD OUT FB AGND GND C3 22F MAIN shown in Figure 3 are recommended for most applications, although values between 4.7H and 47H are suitable. Smaller inductance values typically offer a smaller physical size for a given series resistance, allowing the smallest overall circuit dimensions. Larger inductance values exhibit higher output current capability, but larger physical dimensions. Circuits using larger inductance values may start up at lower input voltages and exhibit less ripple, but they may provide reduced output power. This occurs when the inductance is sufficiently large to prevent the maximum current limit from being reached before the maximum on-time expires. The inductor's saturation current rating should be greater than the peak switching current. However, it is generally acceptable to bias most inductors into saturation by as much as 20%, although this may slightly reduce efficiency. For best efficiency, select inductors with resistance no greater than the internal N-channel FET resistance in each step-up converter. For maximum output current, choose L such that: L < [(VIN tON) / IPEAK] where tON is the maximum switch on-time (5s for main step-up converter) or 9s for LCD step-up converter) and IPEAK is the switch peak current limit (0.75A for the main step-up converter, or 0.5A for the LCD step-up converter). With this inductor value, the maximum output current the main converter is able to deliver is given by: IOUT(MAX) = 0.5 IPEAK / (1 + tON / tOFF) where tON / tOFF = (VOUT + VD - VIN) / (VIN - VON), VIN and VOUT are the input and output voltages, VD is the Schottky diode drop (0.3V typ), and VON = IPEAK RON, where RON is the switch on-resistance. For VIN = 1.5V and VOUT = 3.3V, with a minimum IPEAK value of 0.5A, and VON(MAX) given by (0.5) (0.65) = 0.325V, the available output current that the converter can provide is at least 90mA. For larger inductor values, IPEAK is determined by: IPEAK = [(VIN tON) / L] MAX1817 *D3, D4 = CENTRAL SEMICONDUCTOR CMPD7000 DUAL **D1 = CENTRAL SEMICONDUCTOR CMSD4448 (1N4148) Figure 4. Negative Voltage for LCD Bias Using a Charge Pump to Make Negative LCD Output Voltage The MAX1817 can generate a negative LCD output by adding a diode-capacitor charge-pump circuit (D3, D4, and C6) to the LXLCD pin as shown in Figure 4. FBLCD is driven through a resistive voltage-divider from the positive output, which is not loaded, allowing a very small capacitor value at C2. For best stability and lowest ripple, the time constant of the R1 + R2 series combination and C2 should be near that of C5 and the effective load resistance. Output load regulation of the negative output degrades compared to the standard positive output circuit and may rise at very light loads. If this is not acceptable, reduce the resistance of R1 and R2, while maintaining their ratio, to effectively preload the output with a few hundred A. This is why the R1 and R2 values shown in Figure 4 are lower than typical values for a positive-output design. When loaded, the magnitude of the negative output voltage is slightly lower (closer to ground by approximately a diode forward voltage) than the voltage on C2. External Rectifiers The high maximum switching frequency of the MAX1817 requires a high-speed rectifier. Schottky diodes such as the Motorola MBR0530 or the Nihon EP05Q03L are recommended. To maintain high efficiency, the average current rating of the Schottky diode should be greater than the peak switching current. A junction diode such as the Central Semiconductor CMPD4448 can be used for the LCD output with little Applications Information Inductor Selection The MAX1817's high switching frequency allows the use of small surface-mount inductors. The 10H values 10 ______________________________________________________________________________________ Compact, High-Efficiency, Dual-Output Step-Up DC-DC Converter loss in efficiency. Choose a reverse breakdown voltage greater than the output voltage. Input Bypass Capacitor The input supplies high currents to the inductors and requires local bulk bypassing close to the inductors. A low equivalent series resistance (ESR) input capacitor connected in parallel with the battery will reduce peak battery currents and input-reflected noise. Battery bypassing is especially helpful at low input voltages and with high-impedance batteries (such as alkaline types). Benefits include improved efficiency and lower useful end-of-life voltage for the battery. A single 10F low-ESR surface-mount capacitor is sufficient for most applications. (main converter) from 2.5V to 5.5V may require a larger value LCD feed-forward capacitor to prevent multipulsing of the LCD converter. Larger feed-forward capacitors slightly degrade load regulation, so choose the smallest value capacitor that provides stability. MAX1817 Layout Considerations The MAX1817's high-frequency operation makes PC board layout important for optimal performance. Use separate analog and power ground planes. Connect the two planes together at a single point as close as possible to the IC. Use surface-mount components where possible. If leaded components are used, minimize lead lengths to reduce stray capacitance and keep the components close to the IC to minimize trace resistance. Where an external voltage-divider is used to set output voltage, the traces from FB or FBLCD to the feedback resistors should be extremely short (less than 0.2in or 5mm) to minimize coupling from LX and LXLCD. Refer to the MAX1817 evaluation kit for a full PC board example. Output Bypass Capacitors For most applications, use a small surface-mount 22F or greater ceramic capacitor on the main converter output, and a 1F or greater ceramic capacitor on the LCD output. For small ceramic capacitors, the output ripple voltage is dominated by the capacitance value. If tantalum or electrolytic capacitors are used, the ESR of the capacitors dominates the output ripple voltage. Decreasing the ESR reduces the output ripple voltage and the peak-to-peak transient voltage. ____________________Chip Information TRANSISTOR COUNT: 2785 PROCESS: BiCMOS LCD Compensation The MAX1817's LCD step-up converter feedback requires a small 4.7pF feed-forward capacitor for the typical application circuit.
