General Description
The MAX8728 generates all the supply rails for thin-film
transistor (TFT) liquid-crystal display (LCD) panels in TVs
and monitors. It includes step-down and step-up regula-
tors, positive and negative charge pumps, and a dual-
mode, logic-controlled high-voltage switch control block.
The MAX8728 can operate from input voltages from 7V to
13.2V and is optimized for LCD TV panel and LCD moni-
tor applications running directly from 12V supplies.
The step-up and step-down regulators feature internal
power MOSFETs and high-frequency operation allow-
ing the use of small inductors and capacitors, resulting
in a compact solution. Both switching regulators use
fixed-frequency, current-mode control architectures,
providing fast load-transient response and easy com-
pensation. The positive and negative charge-pump reg-
ulators provide TFT gate-driver supply voltages. Both
output voltages can be adjusted with external resistive
voltage-dividers.
The MAX8728 is available in a small (5mm x 5mm), low-
profile (0.8mm), 32-pin TQFN package and operates
over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

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.
