Analog Devices / Maxim Integrated MAX77857 Buck-Boost Converters

Analog Devices MAX77857 Buck-Boost Converters are high-efficiency, high-performance converters targeted for systems requiring a 2.5V to 16V wide input voltage range. The MAX77857 Buck-Boost Converters feature a 7A switching current and can supply up to 6A output current in buck mode and up to 4A in boost mode. The buck-boost converters operate in PWM mode and implement an automatic SKIP mode to improve light-load efficiency. These Analog Devices devices are available in a 2.83mm x 2.03mm, 35-bump, and 31-bump Wafer-Level Package (WLP), and a 3.5mm x 3.5mm, 16-lead Flip Chip QFN (FC2QFN) package. Typical applications include USB power delivery OTG, Qualcomm® quick charge™, USB VBUS supply, DRP ports, DSLR, display power, up to 3-cell Li-Ion battery applications, etc.
