3A, 1MHz, Low-Voltage, Step-Down Regulators with
Synchronous Rectification and Internal Switches
General Description
The MAX1830/MAX1831 constant-off-time, pulse-width-
modulated (PWM) step-down DC-DC converters are
ideal for use in 5V and 3.3V to low-voltage conversion
necessary in notebook and subnotebook computers.
These devices feature internal synchronous rectification
for high efficiency and reduced component count. They
require no external Schottky diode. The internal 45mΩ
PMOS power switch and 55mΩ NMOS synchronous-rec-
tifier switch easily deliver continuous load currents up to
3A. The MAX1830 produces preset +2.5V, +1.8V, or
+1.5V output voltage or an adjustable output from +1.1V
to V
IN
. The MAX1831 produces preset +3.3V, +2.5V, and
+1.5V output voltages and an adjustable output from
+1.1V to V
IN.
They achieve efficiencies as high as 94%.
The MAX1830/MAX1831 use a unique current-mode,
constant-off-time, PWM control scheme, which includes
Idle Mode™ to maintain high efficiency during light-
load operation. The programmable constant-off-time
architecture sets switching frequencies up to 1MHz,
allowing the user to optimize performance trade-
offs between efficiency, output switching noise, compo-
nent size, and cost. Both devices are designed for con-
tinuous output currents up to 3A, an internal digital
soft-start to limit surge currents during startup, a 100%
duty cycle mode for low-dropout operation, and a
low-power shutdown mode that disconnects the input
from the output and reduces supply current below
1µA.The MAX1830/MAX1831 are available in 16-pin
QSOP packages.
For similar devices that provide continuous output
currents of 1A to 3A, refer to the MAX1644, MAX1623,
and MAX1742/MAX1842/MAX1843 data sheets.

Note 1:
LX has internal clamp diodes to PGND and IN. Applications that forward bias the diode should take care not to exceed the IC’s
package power dissipation.
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.

Not production tested.
Soft-start time is measured with respect to the number of cycles on LX.
This is a metal migration limit. Maximum output current may be limited by thermal capability to a lower value than this.
Specifications from 0°C to -40°C are guaranteed by design, not production tested.
