_______________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.
