MAX8758ETG+T

Category: PMIC - Voltage Regulators - Special Purpose

MAX8758ETG+T voltage regulator is specially designed for high performance, low Iq application. It is a high-side, P-channel MOSFET regulator with a wide operating temperature range from -40 to +85°C. It has an onboard voltage supervisor and temperature sensing circuitry to ensure that the output voltage stays within its specified limits. Its high efficiency and low quiescent current make it ideal for applications with high power demands.

The MAX8758ETG+T works by comparing the output voltage to the reference voltage. When the output voltage is too high, it reduces the gate drive voltage of the P-channel MOSFET which turns it off. This prevents the output voltage from exceeding its limit. The chip also has an adjustable threshold voltage which can be used to control the maximum output voltage. The chip can also be set to be a synchronous boost or buck converter if the maximum output voltage needs to be higher or lower than the input voltage.

The chip also has several safety features to protect against possible damage. Some of these include over-voltage protection, over-temperature protection, and current limit protection. Other features like reverse current protection, output disconnection, and short circuit protection ensure that the chip is reliably and safely operating.

In summary, the MAX8758ETG+T voltage regulator is ideal for high performance, low Iq applications. Its onboard features and safety features make it reliable and safe for use in many applications. It has a wide operating temperature range and can be set as either a synchronous boost or buck converter depending on the demands of the application.
