Analog Devices / Maxim Integrated MAX20343/MAX20344 Buck-Boost Regulators

Analog Devices MAX20343/MAX20344 Buck-Boost Regulators offer a 1A current capability at 3.5V intended for applications that require long run times while also demanding bursts of high current. The MAX20343/MAX20344 employs a unique control algorithm that seamlessly transitions between buck, buck-boost, and boost modes, minimizing discontinuities and subharmonics in the output voltage ripple. The MAX20343/MAX20344 features a low 1.9V input voltage for a startup that allows users to power the device from a variety of sources. The Analog Devices MAX20343/MAX20344 have also been designed to keep inductance and output capacitance requirements as low as possible for space-constrained applications.

The MAX20343/MAX20344 is ideal for power in optical sensor applications, including powering radios in low-power, wide-area network (LPWAN) applications since, in both cases, noise must be minimal, and efficiency must be high. The Analog Devices MAX20343/MAX20344 Buck-Boost Regulators are available with a highly configurable I2C serial interface or as a single-pin-enabled fixed-programming version. 

MAX20343 operates over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range and is available in a 16-bump, 1.77mm x 2.01mm, 0.4mm pitch WLP package and a 12-pin, 2.50mm x 2.50mm, 0.5mm pitch FC2QFN package. MAX20344 operates over the -40°C to +125°C temperature range and is available in a 12-pin, 2.50mm x 2.50mm, 0.5mm pitch FC2QFN package.
