Step-Down Controllers with
Synchronous Rectifier for CPU Power
It is easy to adapt the basic MAX797 single-output 3.3V
buck converter (Figure 1) to meet a wide range of
applications with inputs up to 28V (limited by choice of
external MOSFET). Simply substitute the appropriate
components from Table 1. These circuits represent a
good set of tradeoffs between cost, size, and efficiency
while staying within the worst-case specification limits
for stress-related parameters such as capacitor ripple
current. Each of these circuits is rated for a continuous
load current at T
10A applications can withstand a continuous output
short-circuit to ground. The 3A and 5A applications can
withstand a short circuit of many seconds duration, but
the synchronous-rectifier MOSFET overheats, exceed-
ing the manufacturer’s ratings for junction temperature
by 50°C or more.

If the 3A or 5A circuit must be guaranteed to withstand
a continuous output short circuit indefinitely, see the
section MOSFET Switches under Selecting Other
Components. Don’t change the frequency of these cir-
cuits without first recalculating component values (par-
ticularly inductance value at maximum battery voltage).
The MAX796 is a BiCMOS, switch-mode power-supply
controller designed primarily for buck-topology regula-
tors in battery-powered applications where high effi-
ciency and low quiescent supply current are critical.
The MAX796 also works well in other topologies such
as boost, inverting, and CLK due to the flexibility of its
floating high-speed gate driver. Light-load efficiency is
enhanced by automatic idle-mode operation—a vari-
able-frequency pulse-skipping mode that reduces
