_______________General Description
The MAX877/MAX878/MAX879 are pulse-skipping, step-
up/step-down DC-DC converters that provide a regulated
output from inputs both above and below the output. They
require only three external components—an inductor
(typically 22µH) and two filter capacitors.
The MAX877 delivers a regulated 5V output from 2.5V to
6.2V inputs. The MAX878 generates pin-selectable volt-
ages of 3.0V or 3.3V from 1.5V to 6.2V inputs. The MAX879
output can be adjusted from 2.5V to 6V via an external
resistor divider from 2.5V to 6.2V inputs.
A unique high-power, internal, synchronous rectifier design
(Active Rectifier™) enables the devices to regulate in a
switched linear mode if the input voltage is higher than the
desired output voltage. When the input voltage falls below
the output voltage, the MAX877/MAX878/MAX879 will
smoothly switch into a pulse-skipping boost mode and
step up from input voltages as low as 1V. In shutdown, the
active rectifier disconnects the output from the source. This
stops the current drain from input to output associated with
conventional step-up converters.
High-frequency operation (up to 300kHz) allows the use of
small surface-mount inductors. Supply current is 195µA
under no load, and only 20µA in shutdown mode. For 1-cell
(1V) step-up converters with similar performance and the
same pinout, refer to the MAX777/MAX778/MAX779 data
sheet.

Note 1:
The output may be shorted to ground continuously if the package power dissipation is not exceeded.
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.
