The MAX797ESE is an integrated circuit (IC) component that offers several key features for power management in electronic systems. This IC is particularly useful in applications where multiple voltage supply lines need to be controlled efficiently. Here is an overview of the MAX797ESE and its key features:
1. Buck and linear regulator combination: The MAX797ESE combines a step-down (buck) switching regulator with a linear regulator. This combination enables efficient power conversion and regulation across a wide range of input voltages.
2. Wide input voltage range: This IC can handle input voltages ranging from 3.6V to 20V. This feature allows it to be used in a variety of applications, such as automotive systems, industrial equipment, and battery-powered devices.
3. Selectable output voltage: The MAX797ESE provides a mechanism to select the output voltage of the linear regulator. It offers a choice between fixed output voltages, such as 1.8V, 2.5V, 2.8V, 3.0V, and adjustable output voltage options. This flexibility makes it suitable for powering various components in the system.
4. High output current: The IC can deliver up to 1.5A of output current, ensuring sufficient power for demanding loads. This feature makes it suitable for applications that require a high current supply, such as powering motors, displays, or microcontrollers
