Maxim 15058/15108/15112/15118 DC-DC converter range

Maxim has introduced the MAX15058/15108/15112/15118, claimed to be the industry’s smallest current-mode, synchronous DC-DC converters that deliver up to 3, 8, 12 and 18 A of output.

The regulators integrate MOSFETs to simplify designs and provide high efficiency in a wafer-level package.

Operating in fixed pulse-width modulation, they are suitable for telecom, networking, server and base-station applications. Configured in a pulse-skip mode, they will reduce power during light load conditions found in notebook and single-cell battery applications.

The 15058/15112/15118 deliver up to 94% and the 15108 delivers up to 95% conversion efficiency at full load.

They operate from a 2.7 to 5.5 input and provide ±1% output-voltage accuracy over load, line and temperature. The devices are fully specified over the -40 to +85°C extended temperature range. The regulators are available in several sizes of WLP packages.
