_______________General Description
The MAX742 DC-DC converter is a controller for dual-out-
put power supplies in the 3W to 60W range. Relying on
simple two-terminal inductors rather than transformers, the
MAX742 regulates both outputs independently to within
±4% over all conditions of line voltage, temperature, and
load current.
The MAX742 has high efficiency (up to 92%) over a wide
range of output loading. Two independent PWM current-
mode feedback loops provide tight regulation and opera-
tion free from subharmonic noise. The MAX742 can
operate at 100kHz or 200kHz, so it can be used with small
and lightweight external components. Also ripple and
noise are easy to filter. The MAX742 provides a regulated
output for inputs ranging from 4.2V to 10V (and higher with
additional components).
External power MOSFETs driven directly from the MAX742
are protected by cycle-by-cycle overcurrent sensing. The
MAX742 also features undervoltage lockout, thermal shut-
down, and programmable soft-start.
If 3W of load power or less is needed, refer to the MAX743
data sheet for a device with internal power MOSFETs.

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.

Note 1:
Devices are 100% tested to these limits under 0mA to 100mA and to 125mA conditions using automatic test equipment.
The ability to drive loads up to 1A is guaranteed by the current-limit threshold, output swing, and the output current
source/sink tests. See Figures 2 and 3.
Note 2:
Actual load capability of the circuit of Figure 2 is ±200mA in ±15V mode and ±250mA in ±12V mode. Load regulation is
tested at lower limits due to test equipment limitations.
Note 3:
Guaranteed by design.
Note 4:
Measured at Point A, circuit of Figure 2, with PDRV disconnected.
