The MAX77857 is a high-efficiency, high-performance buck-boost converter targeted for systems requiring a wide input voltage range (2.5V to 16V). It features 7A switching current and can supply up to 6A output current in buck mode and up to 4A in boost mode (Boost Ratio ≤ 1.3). It operates in PWM mode and implements an automatic SKIP mode to improve light-load efficiency.

The default output voltage is 5V when using internal feedback resistors. It can also be configured to any default output voltages between 3V and 15V when using external feedback resistors. The output voltage is adjustable dynamically through the I2C serial interface (see the Output Voltage Configuration section).

The SEL pin allows a single external resistor to program four different I2C interface slave addresses, four different switching current limit thresholds, and selection between external/internal feedback resistors. The different switching current limit thresholds allow the use of lower profile and smaller external components that are optimized for a particular application. The use of external feedback resistors allows for a wider output voltage range and customizable output voltages at startup.

The I2C serial interface is optional and allows for dynamically controlling the output voltage, slew rate of the output voltage change, switching-current limit threshold, switching frequency, and forced PWM mode operation. The I2C-programmed settings have priority over the RSEL decoded settings.

The MAX77857 is available in a 2.83mm x 2.03mm, 35-bump and 31-bump wafer-level package (WLP) and a 3.5mm x 3.5mm, 16-lead Flip Chip QFN package (FC2QFN).

Applications

  • USB VBUS Supply and DRP (Dual Role Power) Ports
  • DSLR, DSLR Lens
  • Display Power
  • Up to 3-Cell Li-Ion Battery Applications
  • Notebook Computer, Tablet PC

MAX77857Q Evaluation Kit

Features and Benefits

  • Proven PCB Reference Design and Layout Benefit
  • Fully Assembled and Tested
  • Sense Points for High-Accuracy Measurements
  • Accessible Test Point Pins for EN, POKB/INTB, VIO, and I2C Serial Interface SCL, SDA
  • MAXUSB_INTERFACE# Allows Easy Communication with a Windows PC

  • Output Voltage Dynamically Adjustable Through I2C Serial Interface
  • I2C Slave Address, Switching Current Limit, and Feedback Configuration Adjustable Using RSEL (R9)

Product Detail

The MAX77857Q evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled and tested printed circuit board (PCB) that demonstrates the MAX77857 in a FC2QFN package, a high-efficiency, high-performance buck-boost regulator with a switching current of 7A. The IC is capable of 2.5V to 16V input and dynamically adjustable output between 4.5V to 15V when using internal feedback resistors, or between 3V to 15V when using external feedback resistors. The EV kit is factory-configured as internal feedback with default startup output voltage at 5V. Other startup voltages can be achieved with external feedback resistors. The output voltage can be adjusted dynamically through the I2C serial interface.

I/O pins are available to support the I2C serial interface, Enable function, and interrupt/Power-OK indicator. The I2C slave address, switching current limit, and feedback configuration can be adjusted by changing the RSEL resistor value (R9). MAXUSB_INTERFACE# allows the use of Windows®-based software with a friendly graphical user interface (GUI) as well as a detailed register-based interface to exercise all features of the IC. The EV kit is compatible with any version of the MAX77857 FC2QFN IC (MAX77857BEFE+T is the default installed on the EV kit).
