Figure 2. MAX669 High-Voltage Bootstrapped Configuration
Figure 3. MAX669 Low-Voltage Bootstrapped Configuration
With bootstrapped operation, the IC is powered from
the circuit output (V
when the input voltage is low, since EXT drives the FET
with a higher gate voltage than would be available from
the low-voltage input. Higher gate voltage reduces the
FET on-resistance, increasing efficiency. Other (unde-
sirable) characteristics of bootstrapped operation are
increased IC operating power (since it has a higher
operating voltage) and reduced ability to start up with
high load current at low input voltages. If the input volt-
