MAX16928
Automotive TFT-LCD Power Supply with Boost
Converter and Gate Voltage Regulators
General Description
The MAX16928 is a highly integrated power supply
for automotive TFT-LCD applications. The device inte-
grates one boost converter, one 1.8V/3.3V regulator
controller, and two gate voltage regulators. The device
comes in several versions to satisfy common automotive
TFT-LCD power-supply requirements (see the
Ordering
Information
table).
The boost converter uses spread-spectrum modulation to
reduce peak interference and to optimize EMI performance.
The sequencing input (SEQ) allows flexible sequencing
of the positive-gate and negative-gate voltage regulators.
The power-good indicator (PGOOD) indicates a failure
on any of the converters or regulator outputs. Integrated
thermal shutdown circuitry protects the device from over-
heating.
The MAX16928 is available in a 20-pin TSSOP pack-
age with exposed pad and operates over the -40NC to
+105NC temperature range.

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
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Specifications over temperature are guaranteed by design and not production tested.
50% of the soft-start voltage time is due to the soft-start ramp and the other 50% is due to the settling of the output voltage.
After the voltage at CP exceeds this overvoltage threshold, the entire circuit switches off and autoretry is started.
Guaranteed by design; not production tested.
FB power good is indicated by PGOOD. The condition V
FB
< V
PG_FB
does not shut down/restart the device.
