MAX16935RAUE/V+

The MAX16935RAUE/V+ is an automotive 36V, 3.5A, 2.2MHz step down converter with 28µA quiescent current in 16 TSSOP package. It is integrated high and low side MOSFETs designed to operate with an external Schottky diode for better efficiency. The low-side MOSFET enables fixed-frequency forced-PWM (FPWM) operation under light load applications. The switching frequency is resistor programmable from 220KHz to 2.2MHz and can be synchronized to an external clock. The FPWM mode is extremely useful for power supplies designed for RF transceivers. Protection features include cycle by cycle current limit and thermal shutdown with automatic recovery. The wide input voltage range along with its ability to operate at 98% duty cycle during undervoltage transients make the device ideal for automotive and industrial applications. Typical application includes point-of-load applications, distributed DC power systems, navigation and radio head units.
