Description and Introduction

12V/15V or Adjustable, High-Efficiency, Low IQ, Step-Up DC-DC Converters The MAX761EPA is a step-up DC-DC converter manufactured by Maxim Integrated (now part of Analog Devices). Below are its specifications, descriptions, and features based on Ic-phoenix technical data files:

### **Specifications:**  
- **Input Voltage Range:** 1 V to 16.5 V  
- **Output Voltage:** Adjustable from 5 V to 12 V (factory preset to 5 V or 12 V)  
- **Output Current:** Up to 300 mA (dependent on input voltage and output configuration)  
- **Switching Frequency:** 300 kHz  
- **Efficiency:** Up to 90%  
- **Operating Temperature Range:** -40°C to +85°C  
- **Package:** 8-Pin PDIP (Plastic Dual In-Line Package)  

### **Descriptions:**  
The MAX761EPA is a high-efficiency, step-up DC-DC switching regulator designed for battery-powered applications. It integrates a power MOSFET switch, allowing it to generate higher output voltages from low input sources. The device is commonly used in portable electronics, medical instruments, and industrial systems where space and efficiency are critical.  

### **Features:**  
- **Low Minimum Input Voltage:** Operates down to 1 V, making it suitable for single-cell battery applications.  
- **Adjustable Output Voltage:** Can be set via external resistors.  
- **Internal Power MOSFET:** Eliminates the need for an external switch.  
- **Low Quiescent Current:** Typically 110 µA, improving battery life.  
- **Shutdown Mode:** Reduces supply current to 5 µA when disabled.  
- **Over-Temperature Protection:** Prevents damage due to excessive heat.
