MAX6863UK225+T

The MAX6863UK225 DAC-controlled boost/inverter IC converts a positive input voltage to a positive or negative LCD bias voltage up to +27.5V or -27.5V. The device features an internal N-channel MOSFET switch, programmable current limiting, and an internal 6-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) for digital adjustment of the output voltage. It comes in a small 16-pin QSOP package (same size as an 8-pin SO). The MAX6863UK225 uses a current-limited, pulse-frequency-modulation (PFM) control scheme to provide high efficiency over a wide range of load conditions. Its high switching frequency (up to 300kHz) allows the use of small external components. An LCDON output allows the LCD bias voltage to be automatically disabled when the display logic voltage is removed, protecting the display. The MAX6863UK225 has a +2.7V to +5.5V input voltage range for the IC, and a +0.8V to +27.5V input voltage range for the inductor. Typical quiescent supply current is 65μA. Shutdown current is 1.5μA. The MAX6863UK225 offers high-level integration to save space, reduce power consumption, and increase battery life, making it an excellent choice for battery-powered portable equipment. The MAX629 is similar to the MAX686, except that it does not contain a built-in DAC. Both devices have evaluation kits to facilitate designs.
