General Description
The MAX8653 dual-output, synchronous, step-down regulator contains low RDS(ON) integrated high-side MOSFET switches for ease of layout and achieving small footprints. Each output delivers up to 5A. The output voltage is adjustable down to 0.6V and operates from a 9V to 14V input voltage. The MAX8653 uses a proprietary high-bandwidth, constant-frequency, peak-voltage-mode control architecture and operates at an adjustable switching frequency between 300kHz to 1.5MHz. The architecture is suitable for use with a wide range of output capacitor technologies such as aluminum electrolytic, POSCAPs, and ceramic capacitors for flexible design. The simple compensation scheme achieves fast response under both line and load transients
