Dual-Output Step-Down and LCD Step-Up
Power Supply for PDAs
General Description
The MAX1878 dual power supply contains a step-down
and step-up DC-DC converter in a small 12-pin TQFN
package for use in PDAs. The step-down DC-DC convert-
er delivers over 500mA to an output as low as 1.25V for
logic power. The step-up DC-DC converter delivers over
15mA and an output as high as 28V for a liquid crystal dis-
play (LCD). With an input voltage from 2.0V to 5.5V the
MAX1878 is intended for use in systems powered by a
2-cell alkaline or 1-cell lithium-ion (Li+) battery.
Fast switching frequency allows the use of small inductors
and capacitors, and the low 19µA typical quiescent cur-
rent allows high efficiency when the system is in standby
mode. Each output can be independently enabled.
The MAX1878 is available in a small 0.75mm high 4mm x
4mm 12-pin TQFN package and requires no external FETs.
The MAX1878 evaluation kit is available to speed designs.

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.
