Maxim MAX8576–MAX8579 Synchronous Buck Controller Datasheet
The MAX8576‑MAX8579 series are synchronous PWM buck controllers that operate from a 3 V to 28 V input and provide an adjustable output voltage from 0.6 V to 0.9 × VIN. The devices feature hysteretic voltage mode control, fast transient response, and a range of protection functions such as over‑voltage, over‑current and soft‑start.
The document includes absolute maximum ratings, detailed electrical characteristics, pin descriptions, typical application schematics, efficiency graphs, layout recommendations and a list of recommended external components for optimal performance. This manual is written in Chinese.
