Push-Pull FET Driver with Integrated Oscillator
and Programmable Clock Output
Features
The MAX5077 is a +4.5V to +15V push-pull, current-fed
topology driver subsystem with an integrated oscillator
used in telecom module power supplies. The device
drives two MOSFETs connected to a center-tapped
transformer primary providing secondary-side, isolated,
negative or positive voltages. The MAX5077 features a
programmable accurate integrated oscillator with a
synchronizing clock output to synchronize an external
PWM regulator. A single external resistor programs the
internal oscillator frequency from 50kHz to 1.5MHz.
The MAX5077 incorporates dual MOSFET drivers with
±3A peak drive currents and 50% duty cycle. The
MOSFET drivers generate complementary signals to
drive external ground-referenced n-channel MOSFETs.
The MAX5077 clock output frequency is programmable
by logic inputs to set the clock output to 1x, 2x, or 4x
the MOSFET’s driver frequency.
The MAX5077 is available in a 14-pin exposed pad
TSSOP package and is specified over the -40°C to
+125°C operating temperature range.

Pin Description
MAX5077
Push-Pull FET Driver with Integrated Oscillator
and Programmable Clock Output
Detailed Description
The MAX5077 is a +4.5V to +15V push-pull, current-fed
topology driver subsystem with an integrated oscillator
for use in 48V module power supplies.
The MAX5077 features a programmable accurate integrated oscillator with a synchronizing clock output that
can be used to synchronize an external PWM stage. A
single external resistor programs the internal oscillator
frequency from 50kHz to 1.5MHz.
The MAX5077 incorporates dual MOSFET drivers with
±3A peak drive currents and a 50% duty cycle. The
MOSFET drivers generate complementary signals to
drive external ground-referenced n-channel MOSFETs.
The MAX5077 CLK output frequency is programmable
through logic inputs that set the fCLK:NDRV_ ratio to 1x,
2x, or 4x.

fOSC =
32 × RRT
where fOSC is the oscillator frequency and RRT is a
resistor connected from RT to AGND in ohms.
Place a 1nF capacitor from RT to AGND for stability
and to filter out noise.
When the fCLK:fNDRV_ ratio is set to 4, the NDRV1 and
NDRV2 switching frequency is limited to one-fourth
f OSC . When operating the MAX5077 with the
fCLK:fNDRV_ ratios set to 1 or 2 (see the Synchronizing
Clock Output section), the NDRV1 and NDRV2 switching frequency is set to one-half fOSC.
Synchronizing Clock Output
The MAX5077 provides a buffered clock output that can
be used to synchronize the oscillator input of a PWM
controller. CLK is powered from an internal 5V regulator
and sources/sinks up to 10mA. Two logic inputs (SEL2,
SEL1) select CLK output frequency to 1x, 2x, or 4x with
respect to NDRV1 and NDRV2 switching frequency (see
Table 1 and Figure 2). Drive SEL2 and SEL1 low to
disable NDRV1, NDRV2, and CLK outputs. There is a
typical 30ns delay from CLK to NDRV_ output.

Internal Oscillator
An external resistor at RT programs the MAX5077’s
internal oscillator frequency from 50kHz to 1.5MHz. The
MAX5077 NDRV1 and NDRV2 switching frequencies
are one-half or one-fourth the programmed oscillator
frequency with a nominal 50% duty cycle.
Use the following formula to calculate the internal oscillator frequency:

Push-Pull FET Driver with Integrated Oscillator
and Programmable Clock Output
Supply Bypassing
Pay careful attention to bypassing and grounding the
MAX5077. Peak supply and output currents may exceed
3A when driving large MOSFETs. Ground shifts due to
insufficient device grounding may also disturb other circuits sharing the same ground-return path. Any series
inductance in the VCC, NDRV1, NDRV2, and/or GND
paths can cause noise due to the very high di/dt when
switching the MAX5077 with any capacitive load. Place
one or more 0.1µF ceramic capacitors in parallel as
close to the device as possible to bypass VCC to PGND.
Use a ground plane to minimize ground-return resistance and inductance. Place the external MOSFETs as
close as possible to the MAX5077 to further minimize
board inductance and AC path impedance.
Power Dissipation
Power dissipation of the MAX5077 is a function of the
sum of the quiescent current and the output current
(either capacitive or resistive load). Maintain the sum of
the currents so the maximum power dissipation limit is
not exceeded. The power dissipation (PDISS) due to the
quiescent switching supply current (ICCSW) can be calculated as:
PDISS = VCC x ICCSW
For capacitive loads, use the following equation to estimate the power dissipation:
PLOAD = 2 x CLOAD x VCC2 x fNDRV_
Layout Recommendations
The MAX5077 drivers source and sink large currents
that can create very fast rise and fall edges at the gate
of the switching MOSFETs. The high di/dt can cause
unacceptable ringing if the trace lengths and impedances are not well controlled. Use the following PC
board layout guidelines when designing with the
MAX5077:
• Place one or more 0.1µF decoupling ceramic capacitors from VCC to PGND as close to the device as
possible. Connect VCC and all ground pins to large
copper areas. Place one bulk capacitor of 10µF on
the PC board with a low-impedance path to the VCC
input and PGND of the MAX5077.
• Two AC current loops form between the device and
the gates of the driven MOSFETs. The MOSFET looks
like a large capacitance from gate to source when the
gate pulls low. The current loop is from the MOSFET
gate to NDRV1/NDRV2 of the MAX5077, to PGND, and
to the source of the MOSFETs. When the gate of the
MOSFET is pulled high, the current is from the VCC terminal of the decoupling capacitor, to VCC of the
MAX5077, to NDRV1/NDRV2, to the MOSFET gate and
source. Both charging current and discharging current
loops are important. Minimize the physical distance
and the impedance in these AC current paths.
• Keep the device as close to the MOSFET as possible.
where C LOAD is the capacitive load at NDRV1 and
NDRV2, VCC is the supply voltage, and fNDRV_ is the
MAX5077 NDRV_ switching frequency.
Calculate the total power dissipation (PT) as follows:
PT = PDISS + PLOAD
