CMOS Micropower Step-Up
Switching Regulator
General Description
Maxim’s MAX630 and MAX4193 CMOS DC-DC regula-
tors are designed for simple, efficient, minimum-size
DC-DC converter circuits in the 5mW to 5W range. The
MAX630 and MAX4193 provide all control and power
handling functions in a compact 8-pin package: a
1.31V bandgap reference, an oscillator, a voltage com-
parator, and a 375mA N-channel output MOSFET. A
comparator is also provided for low-battery detection.
Operating current is only 70µA and is nearly indepen-
dent of output switch current or duty cycle. A logic-level
input shuts down the regulator to less than 1µA quies-
cent current. Low-current operation ensures high effi-
ciency even in low-power battery-operated systems.
The MAX630 and MAX4193 are compatible with most
battery voltages, operating from 2.0V to 16.5V.
The devices are pin compatible with the Raytheon bipo-
lar circuits, RC4191/2/3, while providing significantly
improved efficiency and low-voltage operation. Maxim
also manufactures the MAX631, MAX632, and MAX633
DC-DC converters, which reduce the external compo-
nent count in fixed-output 5V, 12V, and 15V circuits.
See Table 2 at the end of this data sheet for a summary
of other Maxim DC-DC converters.

FUNCTION
Low-Battery Detection Comparator Input. The LBD output, pin 8, sinks current whenever this pin is
below the low-battery detector threshold, typically 1.31V.
An external capacitor connected between this terminal and ground sets the oscillator frequency.
47pF = 40 kHz.
This pin drives the external inductor. The internal N-channel MOSFET that drives L
X
has an output
resistance of 4Ω and a peak current rating of 525mA.
Ground
The positive supply voltage, from 2.0V to 16.5V (MAX630).
The MAX630/MAX4193 shut down when this pin is left floating or is driven below 0.2V. For normal
operation, connect I
C
directly to +V
S
or drive it high with either a CMOS gate or pullup resistor
connected to +V
S
. The supply current is typically 10nA in the shutdown mode
The output voltage is set by an external resistive divider connected from the converter output to V
FB
and ground. The MAX630/MAX4193 pulse the L
X
output whenever the voltage at this terminal is less
than 1.31V.
The Low-Battery Detector output is an open-drain N-channel MOSFET that sinks up to 600μA (typ)
whenever the LBR input, pin 1, is below 1.31V.

Detailed Description
The operation of the MAX630 can best be understood
by examining the voltage regulating loop of Figure 1.
R1 and R2 divide the output voltage, which is com-
pared with the 1.3V internal reference by comparator
COMP1. When the output voltage is lower than desired,
the comparator output goes high and the oscillator out-
put pulses are passed through the NOR gate latch,
turning on the output N-channel MOSFET at pin 3, L
X
.
As long as the output voltage is less than the desired
voltage, pin 3 drives the inductor with a series of pulses
at the oscillator frequency.
Each time the output N-channel MOSFET is turned on,
the current through the external coil, L1, increases,
storing energy in the coil. Each time the output turns off,
the voltage across the coil reverses sign and the volt-
age at L
X
rises until the catch diode, D1, is forward
biased, delivering power to the output.
When the output voltage reaches the desired level,
1.31V x (1 + R1 / R2), the comparator output goes low
and the inductor is no longer pulsed. Current is then
supplied by the filter capacitor, C1, until the output volt-
age drops below the threshold, and once again L
X
is
switched on, repeating the cycle. The average duty
cycle at L
X
is directly proportional to the output current.
Output Driver (L
X
Pin)
The MAX630/MAX4193 output device is a large
N-channel MOSFET with an on-resistance of 4Ω and a
peak current rating of 525mA. One well-known advan-
tage that MOSFETs have over bipolar transistors in
switching applications is higher speed, which reduces
switching losses and allows the use of smaller, lighter,
less costly magnetic components. Also important is that
MOSFETs, unlike bipolar transistors, do not require
base current that, in low-power DC-DC converters,
often accounts for a major portion of input power.
The operating current of the MAX630 and MAX4193
increases by approximately 1µA/kHz at maximum
power output due to the charging current required by
the gate capacitance of the L
X
output driver (e.g., 40µA
increase at a 40kHz operating frequency). In compari-
son, equivalent bipolar circuits typically drive their NPN
L
X
output device with 2mA of base drive, causing the
bipolar circuit’s operating current to increase by a fac-
tor of 10 between no load and full load.
Oscillator
The oscillator frequency is set by a single external, low-
cost ceramic capacitor connected to pin 2, C
X
. 47pF
sets the oscillator to 40kHz, a reasonable compromise
between lower switching losses at low frequencies and
reduced inductor size at higher frequencies.

Low-Battery Detector
The low-battery detector compares the voltage on LBR
with the internal 1.31V reference. The output, LBD, is an
open-drain N-channel MOSFET. In addition to detecting
and warning of a low battery voltage, the comparator
can also perform other voltage-monitoring operations
such as power-failure detection.
Another use of the low-battery detector is to lower the
oscillator frequency when the input voltage goes below
a specified level. Lowering the oscillator frequency
increases the available output power, compensating for
the decrease in available power caused by reduced
input voltage (see Figure 5).
MAX630’s analog circuitry, oscillator, L
X
, and LBD out-
puts are turned off. The device’s quiescent current dur-
ing shutdown is typically 10nA (1µA max).
Bootstrapped Operation
In most circuits, the preferred source of +V
S
voltage for
the MAX630 and MAX4193 is the boosted output volt-
age. This is often referred to as a “bootstrapped” oper-
ation since the circuit figuratively “lifts” itself up.
The on-resistance of the N-channel L
X
output decreas-
es with an increase in +V
S
; however, the device operat-
ing current goes up with +V
S
(see the
Typical
Operating Characteristics,
I
S
vs. +V
S
graph). In circuits
with very low output current and input voltages greater
than 3V, it may be more efficient to connect +V
S
direct-
ly to the input voltage rather than bootstrap.
Logic-Level Shutdown Input
The shutdown mode is entered whenever I
C
(pin 6) is
driven below 0.2V or left floating. When shut down, the
