4.5V to 36V, 2.2MHz, 0.6A/1.2A Buck-Boost Converters with Integrated H-Bridge

The MAX26039/MAX26040 ICs are a small, synchronous buck-boost converter family with integrated high-side and low-side switches. The MAX26040 is designed to deliver up to 1.2A with input voltages from 4.5V to 36V while using only 52μA quiescent current at no load. The ICs provide an accurate output voltage of ±2%. Voltage quality can be monitored by observing the power-good (PGOOD) signal.

The MAX26039/MAX26040 offer a fixed output voltage of 5V and a programmable range of 4.0V to 15V. See the Ordering Information table for more details. Frequency is adjustable from 220kHz to 2.2MHz, which allows for small external components and reduced output ripple. Skip mode with low quiescent current of 52μA is available in the MAX26040B and MAX26040D versions of the IC. The ICs can operate with spread-spectrum frequency modulation designed to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI)-radiated emissions due to the modulation frequency.

The MAX26039/MAX26040 are available in a small (4mm x 4mm), 20-pin, side-wettable TQFN package and use very few external components.
