Description

The MAX20735 is a fully integrated, highly efficientswitching regulator for applications operating from 4.5V to16V and requiring up to 40A maximum load. This single-chipregulator provides extremely compact, high-efficiencypower-delivery solutions with high-precision outputvoltages and excellent transient response for networking,datacom, and telecom equipment.The IC offers a broad range of programmable featuresthrough capacitors and resistors connected to dedicatedprogramming pins. Using this feature, the operation canbe optimized for a specific application, reducing thecomponent count- and/or setting-appropriate trade-offsbetween the regulator's performance and system cost.Ease of programming enables using the same design formultiple applications.The MAX20735 includes protection capabilities. Positiveand negative cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection andovertemperature protection ensure a rugged design. Inputundervoltage lockout shuts down the device to preventoperation when the input voltage is out of specification. Astatus pin provides an output signal to show that the outputvoltage is within range and the system is regulating.ApplicationsCommunications EquipmentI/OMemory VDDQNetworking EquipmentPoint-of-Load Voltage RegulatorsServers and Storage EquipmentμP Chipsets
