3.3V/5V/Adjustable-Output,
Step-Up DC-DC Converters
_______________General Description
The MAX756/MAX757 are CMOS step-up DC-DC switch-
ing regulators for small, low input voltage or battery-pow-
ered systems. The MAX756 accepts a positive input
voltage down to 0.7V and converts it to a higher pin-
selectable output voltage of 3.3V or 5V. The MAX757 is
an adjustable version that accepts an input voltage down
to 0.7V and generates a higher adjustable output voltage
in the range from 2.7V to 5.5V. Typical full-load efficiencies
for the MAX756/MAX757 are greater than 87%.
The MAX756/MAX757 provide three improvements over
previous devices. Physical size is reduced—the high
switching frequencies (up to 0.5MHz) made possible by
MOSFET power transistors allow for tiny (<5mm diameter)
surface-mount magnetics. Efficiency is improved to 87%
(10% better than with low-voltage regulators fabricated in
bipolar technology). Supply current is reduced to 60µA
by CMOS construction and a unique constant-off-time
pulse-frequency modulation control scheme.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Note 1: Supply current from the 3.3V output is measured with an ammeter between the 3.3V output and OUT pin. This current
correlates directly with actual battery supply current, but is reduced in value according to the step-up ratio and efficiency.
Note 2: Minimum value is production tested. Maximum value is guaranteed by design and is not production tested.
