500kHz, 36V Output, SOT23,
PWM Step-Up DC-DC Converters

The MAX5025–MAX5028 constant-frequency, pulsewidth modulating (PWM), low-noise boost converters
are intended for low-voltage systems that often need a
locally generated high voltage. These devices are
capable of generating low-noise, high output voltages
required for varactor diode biasing in TV tuners, set-top
boxes, and PCI cable modems. The MAX5025–
MAX5028 operate from as low as 3V and switch at
500kHz.
The constant-frequency, current-mode PWM architecture provides for low output noise that is easy to filter. A
40V lateral DMOS device is used as the internal power
switch, making the devices ideal for boost converters
up to 36V. The MAX5025/MAX5026 adjustable versions
require the use of external feedback resistors to set the
output voltage. The MAX5027/MAX5028 offer a fixed
30V output. These devices are available in a small, 6pin SOT23 package.

Detailed Description
The MAX5025–MAX5028 current-mode PWM controllers operate in a wide range of DC-DC conversion
applications including boost, flyback, and isolated output configurations. These converters provide lownoise, high output voltages making them ideal for varactor diode tuning applications as well as TFT LCD
bias. Other features include shutdown, fixed 500kHz
PWM oscillator, and a wide input range: 3V to 11V for
MAX5026/MAX5028 and 4.5V to 11V for MAX5025/
MAX5027.
The MAX5025–MAX5028 operate in discontinuous
mode in order to reduce the switching noise at the output. Other continuous mode boost converters generate
a large voltage spike at the output when the LX switch
turns on because there is a conduction path between
the output, diode, and switch to ground during the time
needed for the diode to turn off.
To reduce the output noise even further, the LX switch
turns off by taking 40ns typically to transition from “ON”
to “OFF.” As a consequence, the positive slew rate of
the LX node is reduced and the current from the inductor does not “force” the output voltage as hard as
would be the case if the LX switch were to turn off more
quickly.

PWM Controller
The heart of the MAX5025–MAX5028 current-mode
PWM controllers is a BiCMOS multi-input comparator
that simultaneously processes the output-error signal
and switch current signal. The main PWM comparator
8

is direct summing, lacking a traditional error amplifier
and its associated phase shift. The direct summing
configuration approaches ideal cycle-by-cycle control
over the output voltage since there is no conventional
error amp in the feedback path.
The device operates in PWM mode using a fixed-frequency, current-mode operation. The current-mode
feedback loop regulates peak inductor current as a
function of the output error signal.

SHDN Input
The SHDN pin provides shutdown control. Connect
SHDN to V CC for normal operation. To disable the
device, connect SHDN to GND.

Design Procedure
The MAX5025–MAX5028 can operate in a number of
DC-DC converter configurations including step-up, single-ended primary inductance converter (SEPIC), and
flyback. The following design discussions are limited to
step-up, with a complete circuit shown in the
Application Circuits section.

Setting the Output Voltage
The output voltage of the MAX5027/MAX5028 is fixed
at 30V. The output voltage of the MAX5025/MAX5026 is
set by two external resistors (R1 and R2, Figure 2 and
Figure 3). First select the value of R2 in the 5kΩ to
50kΩ range. R1 is then given by:

Use the following formula to calculate the upper bound
of the inductor value at different output voltages and
output currents. This is the maximum inductance value
for discontinuous mode operation.

where VREF is 1.25V

Determining Peak Inductor Current
If the boost converter remains in the discontinuous
mode of operation, then the approximate peak inductor
current, ILPEAK, is represented by the formula below:
ILPEAK =

2 TS ( VOUT − VIN ) IOUT
ηL

where TS is the period, VOUT is the output voltage, VIN
is the input voltage, IOUT is the output current, and η is
the efficiency of the boost converter.

Calculate the lower bound, LLOWER, for the acceptable
inductance value using the following formula, which will
allow the maximum output current to be delivered without reaching the peak current limit:
LLOWER =

2 TS ( VOUT − VIN ) IOUT

Notice that the switch current limit, (VIN/5)(260mA), is a
function of the input voltage, VIN. The current rating of
the inductor should be greater than the switch current
limit.

MAX5025–MAX5028

Determining the Inductor Value
47µH is the recommended inductor value when the output voltage is 30V and the input voltage is 5V. In general, the inductor should have a current rating greater
than the current-limit value. For example, the inductor’s
current rating should be greater than 150mA to support
a 4mA output current. Equivalent series resistance
(ESR) should be below 1Ω for reasonable efficiency.
Due to the MAX5025–MAX5028’s high switching frequency, inductors with a ferrite core or equivalent are
recommended. Powdered iron cores are not recommended due to their high losses at frequencies over
500kHz. Table 1 shows a list of vendors and 47µH
inductor parts.
For 4mA output current and output voltages other than
30V, the inductor can be simply scaled in value
according to the following formula:

500kHz, 36V Output, SOT23,
Step-Up DC-DC Converters
Capacitor Selection

For a design in which VIN = 5V, VOUT = 30V, IOUT =
4mA, η = 0.5, and TS = 2µs,
LUPPER = 87µH

Output Filter Capacitor
The output filter capacitor should be 1µF or greater. To
achieve low output ripple, a capacitor with low ESR, low
ESL, and high capacitance value should be selected.
For very low output ripple applications, the output of the
boost converter can be followed by an RC filter to further reduce the ripple. Figure 3 shows a 100Ω, 1µF filter used to reduce the switching output ripple to
1mVp-p.
X7R ceramic capacitors are better for this boost application because of their low ESR and tighter tolerance
over temperature than the Y5V ceramic capacitors.
Table 3 below lists manufacturers of recommended
capacitors.

and
LLOWER = 12µH.
For a worst-case scenario in which VIN = 4.75V, VOUT
= 29V, IOUT = 4.4mA, η = 0.5, and TS = 1.25µs,
LUPPER = 46µH
and
LLOWER = 9µH.
The choice of 47µH as the recommended inductance
value is reasonable given the worst-case scenario
above. In general, the higher the inductance, the lower
the switching noise. Load regulation is also better with
higher inductance.

Input Capacitor
Bypass VCC with a 4.7µF ceramic capacitor as close to
the IC as is practical.

Diode Selection
The MAX5025–MAX5028’s high switching frequency
demands a high-speed rectifier. Schottky diodes are
recommended for most applications because of their
fast recovery time and low forward-voltage drop.
Ensure that the diode’s peak current rating is greater
than or equal to the peak inductor current. Also, the
diode reverse breakdown voltage must be greater than
VOUT. Table 2 lists diode vendors.

Applications Information
Layout Considerations
The MAX5025–MAX5028 switch at high speed, mandating careful attention to layout for optimum performance. Protect sensitive analog grounds by using a
star ground configuration. Minimize ground noise by
connecting GND, PGND, the input bypass-capacitor
ground lead, and the output-filter ground lead to a single point (star ground configuration). Also, minimize

Figures 2 and 3 show the MAX5025/MAX5026 operating in a 30V boost application. Figure 3 has an RC filter
to reduce noise at the output. These circuits provide
output currents greater than 4mA with an input voltage
of 5V or greater. They are designed by following the
Design Procedure section. Operating characteristics of
these circuits are shown in the Typical Operating
Characteristics section.

Inductor Layout
The shielded drum type inductors have a small air gap
around the top and bottom periphery. The incident fringing magnetic field from this air gap to the copper plane
on the PC board tends to reduce efficiency. This is a
result of the induced eddy currents on the copper plane.
To minimize this effect, avoid laying out any copper
planes under the mounting area of these inductors.
