4.5V to 28V Input, Synchronous PWM Buck Controllers
for DDR Termination and Point-of-Load Applications
General Description
The MAX8553 is a 4.5V to 28V input-voltage, synchro-
nous step-down controller that provides a complete
power-management solution for DDR memory. The
MAX8553 generates 1/2 V
REFIN
voltage for VTT and
VTTR. The VTT and VTTR tracking voltages are main-
tained within 1% of 1/2 V
REFIN
. The MAX8554 is a 4.5V to
28V input voltage, nontracking step-down controller with
a low 0.6V feedback threshold voltage. The MAX8553/
MAX8554 use Maxim’s proprietary Quick-PWM™ archi-
tecture for fast transient response and operate with
selectable pseudo-fixed frequencies. Both controllers
can operate without an external bias supply.
The controllers operate in synchronous-rectification mode
to ensure balanced current sourcing and sinking capabili-
ty of up to 25A. The MAX8553/MAX8554 also provide up
to 95% efficiency, making them ideal for server and point-
of-load applications. Additionally, a low 5µA shutdown
current allows for longer battery life in notebook applica-
tions. Lossless current monitoring is achieved by monitor-
ing the low-side MOSFET’s drain-to-source voltage. The
MAX8553/MAX8554 have an adjustable foldback current
limit to withstand a continuous output overload and short
circuit. Digital soft-start provides control of inrush current
during power-up. Overvoltage protection shuts the con-
verter down and discharges the output capacitor. The
MAX8553/MAX8554 come in space-saving 16-pin QSOP
packages.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
