down current for wide input voltage range boost/SEPIC
converters. The 4.5V to 36V input operating volt-
age range makes these devices ideal in automotive
applications such as for front-end “preboost” or “SEPIC”
power supplies and for the first boost stage in high-
power LED lighting applications. An internal low-dropout
regulator (PVL regulator) with a 5V output voltage
enables the MAX16990/MAX16992 to operate directly
from an automotive battery input. The input operating
range can be extended to as low as 2.5V when the
converter output is applied to the SUP input.
There are multiple versions of the devices offering one
or more of the following functions: a synchronization
output (SYNCO) for two-phase operation, an overvoltage
protection function using a separate input pin (OVP), and
a reference input pin (REFIN) to allow on-the-fly output
voltage adjustment.
The MAX16990 and MAX16992 operate in different
frequency ranges. All versions can be synchronized to
an external master clock using the FSET/SYNC input.
In addition, the MAX16990/MAX16992 have a factory-
programmable spread-spectrum option. Both devices
are available in compact 12-pin TQFN and 10-pin
µMAX
®
packages.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional opera-
tion 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
