Step-Down Controllers with Prebias Startup,
Lossless Sensing, Synchronization, and OVP
General Description
The MAX8543/MAX8544 current-mode, constant-fre-
quency PWM buck controllers operate from a 3V to
13.2V input supply and generate adjustable 0.8V to 0.9
x V
IN
output voltages at loads up to 25A. They feature
adjustable switching frequency and synchronization for
noise-sensitive applications.
The MAX8543/MAX8544 can start with (or without) a pre-
existing bias on the output, without discharging the out-
put. This feature simplifies tracking supply designs for
core and I/O applications and redundant supply designs.
The MAX8543/MAX8544 use the DC resistance of the
output inductor as the current-sense element for loss-
less, low-cost current sensing. The current-sense
threshold can be set to four discrete levels to accom-
modate inductors with different DC resistance values.
The MAX8544 features a power-OK monitor and two
MAX8544 controllers that can operate at 180° out-of-
phase for dual-output applications.

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.
