MAX1702B
General Description
The MAX1702B power-management IC supports ARM
Powered ® devices such as the Intel ® PXA210 and
PXA250 microprocessors based on the Intel XScale™
micro-architecture. These devices include PDAs, thirdgeneration smart cellular phones, internet appliances,
automotive in-dash Telematics systems, and other applications requiring substantial computing and multimedia
capability at low power.
The MAX1702B integrates three ultra-high-performance
power supplies with associated supervisory and management functions. Included is a step-down DC-DC converter to supply 3.3V I/O and peripherals, a step-down
DC-DC converter to supply 0.7V to VIN for the microprocessor core, and a step-down DC-DC converter to
supply either 1.8V, 2.5V, or 3.3V to power the memory.
Management functions include automatic power-up
sequencing, power-on-reset and manual reset with timer,
and two levels of low-battery detection.
The DC-DC converters use fast 1MHz PWM switching,
allowing the use of small external components. They
automatically switch from PWM mode under heavy loads
to skip mode under light loads to reduce quiescent current and maximize battery life. The input voltage range is
from 2.6V to 5.5V, allowing the use of three NiMH cells, a
single Li+ cell, or a regulated 5V input. The MAX1702B is
available in a tiny 6mm x 6mm, 36-pin QFN package and
operates over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

Note 1: Dropout voltage is not tested. Guaranteed by P-channel switch resistance and assumes a 72mΩ (REG1 and
REG3) or 162mΩ (REG2) maximum ESR of inductor.
Note 2: The maximum output current is guaranteed by the following equation:
VOUT (1 − D)
2 × ƒ ×L
IOUT(MAX) =
(1 − D)
1 + (RN + RL )
2 × ƒ ×L
ILIM −
where:
D=
VOUT + IOUT(MAX) (RN + RL )
VIN + IOUT(MAX) (RN + RP )
and:
RN = N-channel synchronous rectifier RDSON
RP = P-channel power switch RDSON
RL = external inductor ESR
IOUT(MAX) = maximum required load current
ƒ = operating frequency minimum
L = external inductor value
Note 3: Specified resistance is in series with an internal diode to LX2.
Note 4: Specifications to -40°C are guaranteed by design and not production tested.

Detailed Description
The MAX1702B triple-output step-down DC-DC converter is ideal for powering PDA, palmtop, and subnotebook
computers. Normally, these devices require separate
power supplies for the processor core, memory, and the
peripheral circuitry. The MAX1702B’s REG1 provides a
fixed 3.3V output designed to power the microprocessor
I/O and other peripheral circuitry. REG1 delivers up to
900mA output current. The microprocessor core is powered from REG2, which has an adjustable 0.7V to VIN
output, providing up to 400mA output current. The third
output, REG3, is designed to power memory. REG3 output voltage is set to one of 3 voltages; 3.3V (PGM3 =
IN), 2.5V (PGM3 = REF), or 1.8V (PGM3 = GND) and
delivers up to 800mA of output current. All three regulators utilize a proprietary regulation scheme allowing
PWM operation at medium to heavy loads, and automatically switch to pulse skipping at light loads for
improved efficiency. Under low-battery conditions, the
MAX1702B issues a warning (LBO output).
The MAX1702B employs PWM control at medium and
heavy loads, and skip mode at light loads (below
approximately 80mA) to improve efficiency and reduce
quiescent current to 485µA. During skip operation, the
MAX1702B switches only as needed to service the load,
reducing the switching frequency and associated losses
in the internal switch, the synchronous rectifier, and the
external inductor.
There are three steady-state operating conditions for the
MAX1702B. The device performs in continuous conduction for heavy loads. The inductor current becomes discontinuous at light loads, requiring the synchronous
rectifier to be turned off before the end of a cycle as the
inductor current reaches zero. The device enters into
skip mode when the converter output voltage exceeds
its regulation limit before the inductor current reaches
the pulse-skip threshold.
During skip mode, a switching cycle initiates when the
output voltage drops below the regulation voltage. The
P-channel MOSFET switch turns on and conducts current to the output-filter capacitor and load until the
inductor current reaches the pulse-skip current threshold. Then the main switch turns off, and the current flows
through the synchronous rectifier to the output-filter
capacitor and the load. The synchronous rectifier is
turned off when the inductor current approaches zero.
The MAX1702B waits until the output voltage drops below
the regulation voltage again to initiate the next cycle.
100% Duty-Cycle Operation
If the inductor current does not rise sufficiently to supply the load during the on-time, the switch remains on,
allowing operation up to 100% duty cycle. This allows
the output voltage to maintain regulation while the input
voltage approaches the regulation voltage. Dropout
voltage is the output current multiplied by the on-resistance of the internal switch and inductor, approximately
220mV for an 800mA load for REG1 and REG3 and
150mV for a 400mA load on REG2.
Near dropout, the on-time may exceed one PWM clock
cycle; therefore, small amplitude subharmonic ripple
can occur in the output voltage. During dropout, the
______________________________________________________________________________________
13
MAX1702B
Functional Diagram
MAX1702B
Triple-Output Power-Management IC for
Microprocessor-Based Systems
high-side P-channel MOSFET turns on, and the controller enters a low-current consumption mode. The
device remains in this mode until the MAX1702B is no
longer in dropout.
Synchronous Rectification
An N-channel synchronous rectifier eliminates the need
for an external Schottky diode and improves efficiency.
The synchronous rectifier turns on during the second
half of each cycle (off-time). During this time, the voltage across the inductor is reversed, and the inductor
current falls. The synchronous rectifier is turned off at
the end of the cycle (at which time another on-time
begins) or when the inductor current approaches zero.
Battery Monitoring and
Undervoltage Lockout
The MAX1702B does not operate with input voltages
below the undervoltage lockout (UVLO) threshold of
2.35V (typ). The inputs remain high impedance until the
supply voltage exceeds the UVLO threshold, reducing
battery load under this condition.
The MAX1702B provides a low-battery comparator that
compares the voltage on LBI to the reference voltage.
An open-drain output (LBO) goes low when the LBI voltage is below 1V. Use a resistive voltage-divider network
as shown in Figure 1 to set the trip voltage to the desired
level. LBO is high impedance in shutdown mode.
The MAX1702B also provides a dead-battery comparator that turns off the IC when the battery has excessively discharged. When the voltage at DBI is below the
1.235V threshold, the MAX1702B is turned off and
draws only 5µA from the battery. Use a resistive voltage-divider network as shown in Figure 1 to set the trip
voltage to the desired level.
Power-On Sequencing
The MAX1702B starts when the input voltage rises
above the UVLO threshold and the voltage at DBI is
greater than the DBI threshold. When power is initially
applied, REG1 starts in soft-start mode. Once OUT1
reaches its regulation voltage, REG3 ramps to its target
in soft-start mode. Finally, once OUT3 reaches its regulation voltage, REG2 ramps to its target in soft-start
mode. The RSO output holds low during this time and
remains low until 65.5ms after REG2 reaches its target
output voltage.
Once all the regulators are running, ON2 turns REG2 on
and off. During startup (before the end of the reset period) REG2 is enabled and can only be turned off once
the RSO output goes high. When turned off, the REG2
output voltage is discharged to PG2 through LX2.
REG1 and REG3 Step-Down Converters
REG1 and REG3 are 1MHz PWM, current-mode stepdown converters and generate 3.3V at up to 900mA
(REG1), and 3.3V, 2.5V, or 1.8V at up to 800mA
(REG3). Internal switches and synchronous rectifiers
are integrated for small size and improved efficiency.
Both regulators remain on while the input voltage is
above the UVLO threshold and DBI is above the DBI
threshold. REG1 and REG3 cannot be independently
turned on or off. To turn both regulators off, pull DBI
below the DBI threshold (1.235V typ).
The REG3 output voltage is set through the PGM3 pin.
Connect PGM3 to IN to set the output voltage to 3.3V,
connect it to REF to set it to 2.5V, and connect it to
GND to set the voltage to 1.8V.
REG2 Step-Down Converter
REG2 is a 1MHz, current-mode step-down converter
and generates a 0.7V to VIN output delivering up to
400mA. An internal switch and synchronous rectifier
are used for small size and improved efficiency. REG2
is turned on and off through the ON2 input. Drive ON2
low to turn off the regulator, and high to turn it on.
OUTOK goes low when the REG2 output voltage drops
below 92.5% of the regulation voltage. OUTOK is an
open-drain output. OUTOK can be used to signal the
processor that the REG2 voltage is in, allowing the
processor to exit from sleep mode into run mode.
Reset Output
MAX1702B features an active-low, open-drain reset output (RSO), RSO holds low during startup or when the
manual reset input MR is held low. RSO goes high
impedance 65.5ms after REG2 reaches its target value
and the MR input goes high. (see the Power-On
Sequencing section). Note that RSO remains high when
REG2 is turned off.
Applications Information
Setting the Output Voltages
The REG1 output voltage is fixed at 3.3V and cannot be
changed. The REG3 output voltage can be set by the
PGM3 input to either 3.3V (connect PGM3 to IN), 2.5V
(connect PGM3 to REF), or 1.8V (connect PGM3 to
GND). The REG2 output voltage is set between 0.70V
and VIN through a resistive voltage-divider from the
REG2 output voltage to FB2 (Figure 1).
Select feedback resistor R5 to be less than 14kΩ. R4 is
then given by:

where VFB2 = 0.70V and VOUT is the REG2 output voltage.

______________________________________________________________________________________
Triple-Output Power-Management IC for
Microprocessor-Based Systems
This resistor and capacitor set a compensation zero
that defines the system’s transient response. The load
pole is a dynamic pole, shifting frequency with changes
in load. As the load decreases, the pole frequency
shifts lower. System stability requires that the compensation zero must be placed properly to ensure adequate phase margin (at least 30°). The following is a
design procedure for the compensation network:
1) Select an appropriate converter bandwidth (fC) to
stabilize the system while maximizing transient
response. This bandwidth should not exceed 1/5 of
the switching frequency. Use 100kHz as a reasonable starting point.
2) Calculate the compensation capacitor, COMP_,
based on this bandwidth. Calculate COMP1 and
COMP3 with the following equation:
 VOUT(MAX)   1  
1 
CCOMP1/ 3 = 

  2 × π × f  gm
I
R


 OUT(MAX)  CS
where RCS is the regulator’s current-sense transresistance and gm is the regulators error amplifier
transconductance. Calculate COMP2 with the following equation:
 VOUT(MAX)   1  
1 
R5 
CCOMP2 = 

  gm ×



 IOUT(MAX)   RCS   2 × π × f  
where RCS is REG2’s current-sense transresistance
and gm is REG2’s error-amplifier transconductance.
Calculate the equivalent load impedance, RL, by:
RL =
VOUT(MIN)
IOUT(MAX)
where VOUT(MIN) equals the minimum output voltage.
IOUT(MAX) equals the maximum load current. Choose
the output capacitor, COUT (see the Output Capacitor
Selection section). Calculate the compensation resistance (RC) value to cancel out the dominant pole created by the output load and the output capacitance:
1
1
=
2 × π × RL × COUT 2 × π × RC × CCOMP_
Solving for RC gives:
R × COUT
RC = L
CCOMP _
To find CCOMPHF_, calculate the high-frequency compensation pole to cancel the zero created by the output
capacitor’s equivalent series resistance (ESR):
1
1
=
2 × π × RESR × COUT 2 × π × RC × CCOMPHF_
Solving for CCOMPHF_ gives:
R
× COUT
CCOMPHF _ = ESR
, but not less than 33pF
RC
If low-ESR ceramic capacitors are used, the CCOMPHF_
equation can yield a very small capacitance value. In
such cases, do not use less than 33pF to maintain
noise immunity.
Inductor Selection
A 4.7µH inductor with a saturation current of at least
1.5A is recommended for most applications. For best
efficiency, use an inductor with low ESR. See Table 1
for recommended inductors and manufacturers. For
most designs, a reasonable inductor value (LIDEAL) can
be derived from the following equation:
LIDEAL =
VOUT (VIN − VOUT )
VIN × LIR × IOUT(MAX) × fOSC
where LIR is the inductor current ripple as a percentage of the load current.
LIR should be kept between 20% and 40% of the maximum load current for best performance and stability.
The maximum inductor current is:
 LIR 
ILMAX = 1 +
 IOUT(MAX)

2 

MAX1702B
Compensation and Stability
Compensate each regulator by placing a resistor and a
capacitor in series, from COMP_ to GND and connect a
33pF capacitor from COMP_ to GND for improved
noise immunity (Figure 1). The capacitor integrates the
current from the transconductance amplifier, averaging
output-voltage ripple. This sets the device speed for
transient responses and allows the use of small ceramic output capacitors. The resistor sets the proportional
gain of the output error voltage by a factor gm ✕ RC.
Increasing this resistor also increases the sensitivity of
the control loop to the output-voltage ripple.

The inductor current becomes discontinuous if IOUT
decreases to LIR/2 from the output current value used
to determine LIDEAL.
Input Capacitor Selection
The input capacitor reduces the current peaks drawn
from the battery or input power source and reduces
switching noise in the IC. The impedance of the input
capacitor at the switching frequency should be less
than that of the input source so high-frequency switching currents do not pass through the input source but
instead are shunted through the input capacitor.
The input capacitor must meet the ripple-current requirement (IRMS) imposed by the switching currents. The input
capacitor RMS current is:


IRMS = ILOAD VOUT (VIN −VOUT ) 


VIN


Output Capacitor Selection
The output capacitor is required to keep the output-voltage ripple small and to ensure regulation control-loop
stability. The output capacitor must have low impedance
at the switching frequency. Ceramic capacitors are recommended. The output ripple is approximately:


1
VRIPPLE ≈ LIR × IOUT(MAX) × ESR +

2 × fOSC × COUT 

See the Compensation and Stability section for a discussion of the influence of output capacitance and ESR
on regulation control-loop stability.
The capacitor voltage rating must exceed the maximum
applied capacitor voltage. Consult the manufacturer’s
specifications for proper capacitor derating. Avoid Y5V
and Z5U dielectric types due to their huge voltage and
temperature coefficients of capacitance and ESR. X7R
and X5R dielectric types are recommended.
16
Setting the Battery Detectors
The low-battery and dead-battery detector trip points
can be set by adjusting the resistor values of the
divider string (R1, R2, and R3) in Figure 1 according to
the following:
1) Choose R3 to be less than 250kΩ
2) R1 = R3 ✕ VBL ✕ (1 - VTH/VBD)
3) R2 = R3 ✕ (VTH ✕ VBL/VBD - 1)
where VBL is the low-battery voltage, VBD is the deadbattery voltage, and VTH = 1.235V.
PC Board Layout and Routing
High switching frequencies and large peak currents
make PC board layout a very important part of design.
Good design minimizes excessive EMI on the feedback
paths and voltage gradients in the ground plane, both
of which can result in instability or regulation errors.
Connect the inductor, input filter capacitor, and output
filter capacitor as close together as possible, and keep
their traces short, direct, and wide. Connect their
ground pins to a single common power ground plane.
The external voltage-feedback network should be very
close to the FB pin, within 0.2in (5mm). Keep noisy
traces (from the LX pin, for example) away from the
voltage-feedback network; also, keep them separate,
using grounded copper. Connect GND and PG_ pins
together at a single point, as close as possible to the
