Analog Devices / Maxim Integrated MAX17536 Switching Voltage Regulator
Analog Devices Inc. MAX17536 Switching Voltage Regulator is an easy-to-use step-down power module. The MAX17536 regulator combines a switching power supply controller, dual n-channel MOSFET power switches, and a fully shielded inductor in a thermally-efficient SiP. This switching regulator operates over a 4.5V to 60V wide input voltage range and delivers up to 4A continuous output current. The MAXM17536 voltage regulator operates in various forms, such as Pulse-width-Modulation (PWM), Pulse-frequency Modulation (PFM), or Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM) control schemes. Typical applications include test and measurement equipment, distributed supply regulation, FPGA and DSP point-of-load regulation, HVAC, and building control systems.
