MAX1932
General Description
Benefits and Features
The MAX1932 generates a low-noise, high-voltage output
to bias avalanche photodiodes (APDs) in optical
receivers. Very low output ripple and noise is achieved by
a constant-frequency, pulse-width modulated (PWM)
boost topology combined with a unique architecture that
maintains regulation with an optional RC or LC post filter
inside its feedback loop. A precision reference and error
amplifier maintain 0.5% output voltage accuracy.
The MAX1932 protects expensive APDs against adverse
operating conditions while providing optimal bias.
Traditional boost converters measure switch current for
protection, whereas the MAX1932 integrates accurate
high-side current limiting to protect APDs under
avalanche conditions. A current-limit flag allows easy calibration of the APD operating point by indicating the precise point of avalanche breakdown. The MAX1932 control
scheme prevents output overshoot and undershoot to
provide safe APD operation without data loss.
• Unique Architecture Delivers Excellent Accuracy for
The output voltage can be accurately set with either
external resistors, an internal 8-bit DAC, an external
DAC, or other voltage source. Output span and offset
are independently settable with external resistors. This
optimizes the utilization of DAC resolution for applications that may require limited output voltage range, such
as 4.5V to 15V, 4.5V to 45V, 20V to 60V, or 40V to 90V.

Detailed Description
Fixed Frequency PWM
The MAX1932 uses a constant frequency, PWM, controller architecture. This controller sets the switch ontime and drives an external N-channel MOSFET (see
Figure 1). As the load varies, the error amplifier sets the
inductor peak current necessary to supply the load and
regulate the output voltage.
Output Current Limit
The MAX1932 uses an external resistor at CS+ and CSto sense the output current (see Figure 2). The typical
current-limit threshold is 2V. CL is designed to help find
the optimum APD bias point by going low to indicate
when the APD reaches avalanche and that current limit
has been activated. To minimize noise, CL only
changes state on an internal oscillator edge.
Output Control DAC
An internal digital-to-analog converter can be used to
control the output voltage of the DC-DC converter
(Figure 2). The DAC output is changed through an SPI™
serial interface using an 8-bit control byte. On power-up,
the DAC defaults to FF hex (1.25V), which corresponds
to a minimum boost converter output voltage.
Alternately, the output voltage can be set with external
resistors, an external DAC, or a voltage source. Output
span and offset are independently settable with external resistors. See the Applications Information section
for output control equations.
SPI Interface/Shutdown
Use an SPI-compatible 3-wire serial interface with the
MAX1932 to control the DAC output voltage and to shut
down the MAX1932. Figures 4 and 5 show timing diagrams
for the SPI protocol. The MAX1932 is a write-only device
and uses CS along with SCLK and DIN to communicate.
The serial port is always operational when the device is
powered. To shut down the DC-DC converter portion only,
update the DAC registers to 00 hex.
Applications Information
Voltage Feedback Sense Point
Feedback can be taken from in front of, or after, the current-limit sense resistor. The current-limit sense resistor
forms a lowpass filter with the output capacitor. Taking
feedback after the current-limit sense resistor (see Figure
2), optimizes the output voltage accuracy, but requires
overcompensation, which slows down the control loop
response. For faster response, the feedback can be
taken from in front of the current-sense resistor (see
Figure 3). This configuration however, makes the output
voltage more sensitive to load variation and degrades
output accuracy by an amount equal to the load current
times the current-sense resistor value.

Output and DAC Adjustments Range
Many biasing applications require an adjustable output
voltage, which is easily obtained using the MAX1932’s
DAC output (Figure 2).
The DAC output voltage is given by the following equation:
⎛ 1.25V ⎞ ⎛ 1.25V ⎞
VDACOUT = CODE × ⎜
⎟ +⎜
⎟
⎝ 256 ⎠ ⎝ 256 ⎠
On power-up, DACOUT defaults to FF hex or 1.25V,
which corresponds to the minimum VOUT output voltage.
The voltage generated at DACOUT is coupled to FB
through R6. DACOUT can sink only 50µA so:
R6 ≥
1.25V
50μA
Select the minimum output voltage (VOUTFF), and the
maximum output voltage (V OUT01 ) for the desired
adjustment range. R5 sets the adjustment span using
the following equation:
The inductance value is given by:
L=
R8 = (1.25V ✕ R5)/(VOUTFF)
Setting the Output Voltage without
the DAC
Adjust the output voltage by connecting a voltagedivider from the output (VOUT) to FB (Figure 2 with R6
omitted). Select R8 between 10kΩ to 50kΩ. Calculate
R5 with the following equation:
⎛ VOUT ⎞
R5 = R8 ⎜
− 1⎟
⎝ 1.25V ⎠
Inductor Selection
Optimum inductor selection depends on input voltage,
output voltage, maximum output current, switching frequency, and inductor size. Inductors are typically specified by their inductance (L), peak current (IPK), and
resistance (LR).
www.maximintegrated.com
2IOUT(MAX) × VOUT
where VIN is the input voltage, IOUT(MAX) is the maximum output current delivered, VOUT is the output voltage, and T is the switching period (3.3µs), η is the
estimated power conversion efficiency, and D is the
maximum duty cycle:
D < (VOUT - VIN)/VOUT up to a maximum of 0.9
Since the L equation factors in efficiency, for inductor calculation purposes, an η of 0.5 to 0.75 is usually suitable.
For example, with a maximum DC load current of 2.5mA,
a 90V output, VIN = 5V, D = 0.9, T = 3.3µs, and η estimated at 0.75, the above equation yields an L of 111µH,
so 100µH would be a suitable value.
The peak inductor current is given by:
V ×D× T
IPK = IN
L
R5 = (VOUTFF - VOUT01) (R6/1.25V)
R8 sets the minimum output of the adjustment range
with the following equation:
(VIN )2 × D2 × T × η
These are typical calculations. For worst case, refer to
the article titled “Choosing the MAX1932 External
Indicator, Diode, Current Sense Resistor, and Output
Filter Capacitor for Worst Case Conditions” located on
the Maxim website in the Application Notes section (visit
www.maxim-ic.com/an1805).
External Power-Transistor Selection
An N-FET power switch is required for the MAX1932. The
N-FET switch should be selected to have adequate onresistance with the MOSFET VGS = VIN(MIN). The breakdown voltage of the N-FET must be greater than VOUT.
For higher-current output applications (such as 5mA at
90V), SOT23 high-voltage low-gate-threshold N-FETs
may not have adequate current capability. For example,
with a 5V input, a 90V, 5mA output requires an inductor
peak of 240mA. For such cases it may be necessary to
simply parallel two N-FETs to achieve the required current rating. With SOT23 devices this often results in
smaller and lower cost than using a larger N-FET device.
Diode Selection
The output diode should be rated to handle the output
voltage and the peak switch current. Make sure that the
diode’s peak current rating is at least IPK and that its
breakdown voltage exceeds VOUT. Fast reverse recovery time (t rr < 10ns) and low junction capacitance
Maxim Integrated | 7
Digitally Controlled, 0.5% Accurate,

MAX1932
(<10pF) are recommended to minimize losses. A smallsignal silicon switching diode is suitable if efficiency is
not critical.
Output Filter Capacitor Selection
The output capacitors of the MAX1932 must have high
enough voltage rating to operate with the V OUT
required. Output capacitor effective series resistance
(ESR) determines the amplitude of the high-frequency
ripple seen on the output voltage. In the typical application circuit, a second RC formed by R1 and C3 further reduces ripple.
Input Bypass Capacitor Selection
The input bypass capacitor reduces the peak currents
drawn from the voltage source and reduces noise
caused by the MAX1932’s switching action. The input
source impedance determines the size of the capacitor
required at the input (VIN). A low ESR capacitor is recommended. A 1µF ceramic capacitor is adequate for
most applications. Place the bypass capacitor as close
as possible to the VIN and GND pins.
Current-Sense Resistor Selection
Current limit is used to set the maximum delivered output current. In the typical application circuit, MAX1932
is designed to current limit at:
R1 =
2V
ILIMIT
Note that I LIMIT must include current drawn by the
feedback divider (if sensing feedback after R1) and the
input current of CS-.
Stability and Compensation
Component Selection
Compensation components, R7 and C4, introduce a
pole and a zero necessary to stabilize the MAX1932
(see Figure 6). The dominant pole, POLE1, is formed by
the output impedance of the error amplifier (REA) and
C4. The R7/C4 zero, ZERO1, is selected to cancel the
pole formed by the output filter cap C3 and output load
R LD, POLE2. The additional pole of R1/C3, POLE3,
should be at least a decade past the crossover frequency to not affect stability:
POLE1 (dominant pole) = 1 / (2π ✕ REA ✕ C4)
ZERO1 (integrator zero) = 1 / (2π ✕ R7 ✕ C4)
POLE2 (output load pole) = K1 / (2π ✕ RLD ✕ (C2 + C3))
POLE3 (output filter pole) = 1 / (2π ✕ R1 ✕ C3)
The DC open-loop gain is given by:
AOL = K2 ✕ Gm ✕ REA
www.maximintegrated.com
where REA = 310MΩ,
gM = 110µS,
RLD is the parallel combination of feedback network
and the load resistance.

A properly compensated MAX1932 results in a gain vs.
frequency plot that crosses 0dB with a single pole
slope (20dB per decade). See Figure 6.
Table 1 lists suggested component values for several
typical applications.
Further Noise Reduction
The current-limit sense resistor is typically used as part
of an output lowpass filter to reduce noise and ripple.
For further reduction of noise, an LC filter can be added
as shown in Figure 7. Output ripple and noise with and
without the LC filter are shown in the Typical Operating
Characteristics. If a post LC filter is used, it is best to
use a coil with fairly large resistance (or a series resistor) so that ringing at the response peak of the LC filter
is damped. For a 330µH and 1µF filter, 22Ω accomplishes this, but a resistor is not needed if the coil resistance is greater than 15Ω.
Output Accuracy and Feedback
Resistor Selection
The MAX1932 features 0.5% feedback accuracy. The
total voltage accuracy of a complete APD bias circuit is
the sum of the FB set-point accuracy, plus resistor ratio
error and temperature coefficient. If absolute accuracy
is critical, the best resistor choice is an integrated network with specified ratio tolerance and temperature
coefficient. If using discrete resistors in high-accuracy
applications, pay close attention to resistor tolerance
and temperature coefficients.
Temperature Compensation
APDs exhibit a change in gain as a function of temperature. This gain change can be compensated with an
appropriate adjustment in bias voltage. For this reason
it may be desirable to vary the MAX1932 output voltage
as a function of temperature. This can be done in softMaxim Integrated | 8

current paths for N1, D1, L1, C1, C2. Do not share
these connections with other signal paths. Refer to the
MAX1932 EV kit for a PC board layout example.
Careful PC board layout is important for minimizing
ground bounce and noise. In addition, keep all connec-
