Dual 300mA Pin-Programmable LDO
Linear Regulators
The MAX8633–MAX8636 offer low-dropout (LDO) voltage and ultra-low-power regulation in a subminiaturized
2mm x 2mm µDFN package. The devices operate from
a 2.7V to 5.5V supply and deliver up to 300mA from
each output, with a typical dropout voltage of 90mV at
100mA load current. Each device is designed with
internal p-channel MOSFET pass transistors to ensure a
low-quiescent supply current of 54µA (typical, both
LDOs on). Other features include low-noise operation
(MAX8634/MAX8636), output current limiting, and thermal shutdown.
The MAX8633 features an open-drain, active-low
RESET output to monitor OUT2, eliminating external
components and adjustments. The MAX8633 asserts a
RESET signal (120ms minimum timeout) when VOUT2
drops below 87% of the nominal output voltage. The
MAX8634/MAX8636 feature a noise bypass input to the
internal reference for low output noise (45µVRMS typ).
The MAX8634/MAX8635 provide independent SHDN
inputs for disabling the regulators, while the MAX8633/
MAX8636 provide a single SHDN input for disabling
both regulators.
The MAX8633/MAX8635/MAX8636 have two logic
inputs that select one of nine preset output-voltage
combinations, eliminating external 1% resistors, as well
as inventory burden. The MAX8634 has one logic input
to select three output-voltage options.
The MAX8633–MAX8636 are available in an 8-pin, 2mm
x 2mm µDFN package for minimizing footprint, and an
8-pin, 3mm x 3mm TDFN package for higher power dissipation. The devices are specified over the extended
temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). All packages are
lead free.

MAX8633–MAX8636
Functional Diagram
MAX8633–MAX8636
Dual 300mA Pin-Programmable LDO
Linear Regulators
Detailed Description
The MAX8633–MAX8636 are low-power, low-quiescent
current, low-dropout linear regulators designed primarily for battery-powered applications. Pin-programmable
inputs allow easy configuration of OUT1 and OUT2 voltages without external 1% resistors. The devices can
supply up to 300mA from each output, provided they do
not exceed the maximum package power dissipation.
The MAX8633–MAX8636 regulate OUT1 and OUT2 by
using simple control loops incorporating internal 1.50V
reference, error amplifiers, p-channel pass transistors,
and internal feedback voltage-dividers. Reset circuitry
ensures controlled startup and provides undervoltage
lockout. The MAX8633–MAX8636 determine output
voltages at OUT1 and OUT2 based on the state of P1
and P2 (P for MAX8634) at power-on.
RESET (MAX8633)
The MAX8633 features an integrated reset circuit.
RESET is logic-low on power-up and goes high impedance 150ms after OUT2 reaches 87% of its nominal
regulation voltage. During power-down or undervoltage
conditions, RESET is driven low when OUT2 falls below
82.5% of its nominal regulation voltage.
Output Programming Inputs (P1, P2, P)
Output voltages for OUT1 and OUT2 are determined at
power-up by the state of P1 and P2. Programming
inputs P1 and P2 eliminate external 1% feedback resistors while providing nine preset output-voltage options
(see Table 1 for the MAX8633; see Table 3 for the
MAX8635/MAX8636).
The MAX8634 provides three preset output-voltage
options with one programming input (see Table 2). The
MAX8633–MAX8636 configure output voltages at OUT1
and OUT2 based on the state of P1 and P2 (P for
Table 1. Output-Voltage Programming
(MAX8633)
8
MAX8634) at power-on. Subsequent changes to P, or
P1 and P2 do not change the output voltages unless
the supply power is cycled, or all SHDN inputs are
simultaneously driven low to shut down the device.
Power-On Sequence
(MAX8633/MAX8636 Only)
The MAX8633/MAX8636 provide a single shutdown input
(SHDN) to disable OUT1 and OUT2. During power-on,
inrush current is limited by a built-in startup sequence. At
power-on, OUT1 is disabled until OUT2 reaches 87% of
its regulation voltage, then OUT1 is enabled.
If SHDN is connected to IN and the input voltage drops
below the undervoltage-lockout (UVLO) threshold, both
LDOs are disabled. The LDOs will not power on again
until both of the following conditions are satisfied:
1) The input voltage is raised above the UVLO threshold 2.25V (typ).
2) OUT2 is discharged below 1.2V (typ).
Internal p-Channel Pass Transistor
The MAX8633–MAX8636 feature 0.9Ω p-channel MOSFET
pass transistors; p-channel MOSFETs provide several
advantages over similar designs using pnp pass
transistors, resulting in higher efficiency and longer battery life. MOSFET pass transistors do not require base
drive current of pnps, reducing quiescent current

Linear Regulators
Current Limit
The MAX8633–MAX8636 provide independent current
limiting for OUT1 and OUT2. Output current is limited to
500mA (typ) and 400mA (min) for each regulator.
Shutdown (SHDN1, SHDN2, SHDN)
The MAX8634/MAX8635 have independent shutdown
control inputs (SHDN1 and SHDN2) and the MAX8633/
MAX8636 have one shutdown control input (SHDN) for
both outputs. Drive SHDN1 low to shut down OUT1.
Drive SHND2 low to shut down OUT2. Drive both SHDN1
and SHDN2 low to shut down the entire device, reducing
supply current to 1µA max. For the MAX8634, drive
SHDN low to shut down the entire device. Connect
SHDN1, SHDN2, or SHDN to a logic-high or IN to permanently enable the corresponding LDO(s).
Thermal-Overload Protection
Thermal-shutdown circuitry protects the MAX8633–
MAX8636 from damage due to excessive junction temperature. The shutdown circuit disables OUT1 and OUT2
when the junction temperature (TJ) exceeds +165°C.
Both regulators are reenabled when TJ falls by 15°C.
Low-Noise Operation (MAX8634/MAX8636)
An external 0.01µF bypass capacitor at BP in conjunction with an internal resistor creates a lowpass filter. The
MAX8634/MAX8636 exhibit less than 45µVRMS of output voltage noise with CBP = 0.01µF and COUT = 2.2µF.
These values are shown in the Output Noise Spectral
Density graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics
section. If output noise is not critical, omit the BP
capacitor to reduce total solution size and cost.

ture range. Output capacitors can be reduced to 1µF
for load currents less than 150mA. The MAX8633–
MAX8636 are optimized for ceramic capacitors and
require low equivalent-series resistance (ESR) to
achieve the stated specifications for low-output noise
and power-supply rejection. To ensure proper operation over the specified temperature range, dielectrics
such as X7R or X5R are recommended. If Z5U or Y5V
dielectrics are used, it may be necessary to increase the
value of the output capacitors to ensure stability at temperatures below -10°C. Tantalum capacitors are not recommended due to their higher ESR.
For loads up to 300mA, or for improved load-transient
response, 2.2µF or larger output capacitors can be used.
PSRR and Operation from
Sources Other than Batteries
The MAX8633–MAX8636 deliver low-dropout voltages
and low-quiescent currents in battery-powered systems.
When operating from sources other than batteries,
improved supply-noise rejection and transient response
can be achieved by increasing the values of the input
and output capacitors and through passive filtering techniques. Power-supply rejection is 60dB at frequencies
below 1kHz (see the Power-Supply Rejection Ratio vs.
Frequency in the Typical Operating Characteristics).
P1 and P2 (P for MAX8634)
External Termination
The pin-programmable inputs (P1 and P2 for
MAX8633/MAX8635/MAX8636, P for MAX8634) should
be connected to IN, GND, or left open. If P_ inputs are
left open, ensure the external capacitance is less than
50pF. If P_ inputs are set high or low, ensure the resistance to IN or GND is less than 1kΩ. The MAX8633–
MAX8636 configure output voltages at OUT1 and OUT2
based on the state of P1 and P2 (P for MAX8634) at
power-on. Subsequent changes to P, or P1 and P2 do
not change the output voltages unless the supply
power is cycled, or all SHDN inputs are simultaneously
driven low to shut down the device.
Load-Transient Considerations
The MAX8633–MAX8636 load-transient response
graphs (see Typical Operating Characteristics) show
two components of the output response: a DC step in
the output voltage due to the change in load current,
and the transient response. Increase the value and
decrease the ESR of the output capacitor to attenuate
transient spikes.
Use a ceramic input capacitor of at least 2.2µF and a
ceramic output capacitor of at least 2.2µF for each output to ensure stable operation over the entire tempera_______________________________________________________________________________________

considerably. Under heavy loads, pnp base-drive current becomes large, further reducing efficiency; pnpbased regulators also require considerable current in
dropout when the pass transistor saturates. The
MAX8633–MAX8636 do not suffer from these problems.
With both outputs active, the devices consume only
54µA of quiescent current at no load, and 60µA with
100mA load current for each output (see Typical
Operating Characteristics). A pnp-based regulator has a
high dropout voltage that is independent of the load. The
dropout voltage of a p-channel MOSFET is proportional
to load current providing for low-dropout voltage at
heavy loads and extremely low dropout at lighter loads.

Input-Output Voltage (Dropout Voltage)
PC Board Layout Guidelines
A regulator’s minimum input-output voltage differential
(or dropout voltage) determines the lowest usable supply voltage. In battery-powered systems, this determines the useful end-of-life battery voltage. Because
the MAX8633–MAX8636 use a p-channel MOSFET
pass transistor, dropout voltage is a function of drainto-source on-resistance (RDS(ON)) multiplied by the
load current (see Typical Operating Characteristics).
Follow these guidelines for good PC board layout:
• Keep the input and output traces short and wide if
possible, especially at the ground terminals.
Calculating Maximum Output Power
The maximum output power of the MAX8633–MAX8636
is limited by the maximum power dissipation of the
package. By calculating the power dissipation of the
device as a function of the input voltage, output voltages, and output currents, the worst-case power dissipation can be obtained. The worst-case power
dissipation should not exceed the package’s maximum
power rating:
where:
PD = VIN(MAX) – VOUT1 x I OUT1 +
(
•
Use thick copper PC boards to enhance thermal
performance. Connect the exposed paddle of the
TDFN package to the ground plane or a large copper pad.
•
Place output, input, and bypass capacitors as close
as possible to the IC.
•
Ensure the noise bypass capacitor and associated
PC board traces are routed away from noise
sources to ensure low-output voltage noise.
An evaluation kit (MAX8633EVKIT) is available for a layout example to speed designs.

PD must be less than PDMAX, the maximum power dissipation of the package. If PD is greater than PDMAX,
consider using the 8-pin TDFN package.

4.8mW/°C above +70°C.
