Product details
Overview
MAX1697TEUT+T from Maxim Integrated is a monolithic CMOS inverting charge-pump DC-DC converter that generates a regulated negative output voltage (–VIN) from a +1.25V to +5.5V input, delivering up to 60mA with 12Ω typical output resistance and 125kHz oscillator frequency. It features logic-controlled shutdown, thermal protection, and operates in a 6-pin SOT23 package-ideal for space-constrained analog biasing in portable instrumentation and LCD power rails.
For engineers reviewing the MAX1697TEUT+T datasheet, MAX1697TEUT+T pinout, MAX1697TEUT+T application, or MAX1697TEUT+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 125kHz switching frequency, –1×VIN inversion ratio, 3Ω active-pull-down shutdown resistance, 350µA typical quiescent current, and compatibility with only two 1µF ceramic capacitors in minimal footprint designs.
Technical Context
The MAX1697TEUT+T implements a two-phase switched-capacitor inverter topology using four on-chip MOSFET switches and internal oscillator control. Its 125kHz fixed-frequency operation balances EMI suppression and external capacitor size, while slew-rate limiting reduces high-frequency noise injection into sensitive analog circuitry.
It delivers precise –VIN output under load via dynamic impedance compensation across temperature and input voltage, with thermal shutdown activation at +150°C and automatic recovery after 15°C hysteresis. Shutdown mode pulls OUT to GND through a guaranteed 3–8Ω path while reducing supply current to ≤10nA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 60mA maximum continuous - supports analog op-amp biasing and GaAsFET gate drives without external boost stages. |
| Oscillator Frequency | 125kHz - enables use of compact 2.2µF flying and reservoir capacitors while maintaining low EMI in mixed-signal PCBs. |
| Input Voltage Range | +1.25V to +5.5V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion, 3.3V logic rails, and legacy 5V systems without LDO pre-regulation. |
| Output Resistance | 12Ω typical - ensures ≤720mV voltage drop at full 60mA load, critical for stable negative rail regulation in precision ADC references. |
| Shutdown Supply Current | ≤10nA - extends battery life in handheld PDAs and medical sensors during standby without auxiliary enable circuitry. |
| Quiescent Current | 350µA typical - minimizes no-load power loss in always-on industrial monitoring nodes powered from 3.3V microcontroller rails. |
| Output Polarity | Inverting (–1×VIN) - directly generates clean negative supply for dual-rail op-amps, CCD clocks, and RF front-end bias without inductors. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-pin SOT23 (U6F-6), 1.6mm × 2.9mm footprint, RoHS-compliant lead-free construction with '+' pin-1 marker.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| C1+ | Flying capacitor positive terminal | Connects to top plate of flying capacitor C1; forms charge-transfer node during phase-1 switch closure (S1/S3). |
| OUT | Inverted output terminal | Delivers regulated –VIN; actively pulled to GND via 3–8Ω switch during SHDN = low. |
| IN | Positive input supply | Accepts +1.25V to +5.5V; powers internal oscillator and switches; requires local 1µF bypass (C3). |
| C1− | Flying capacitor negative terminal | Connects to bottom plate of C1; referenced to GND during phase-2 (S2/S4 closed) to invert voltage. |
| GND | Analog/digital ground reference | Common return for IN, C1−, and OUT discharge path; must connect to low-impedance ground plane. |
| SHDN | Logic-controlled shutdown input | Active-low enable: <0.6V = shutdown (OUT → GND); >2.1V = normal operation; 10nA bias current allows direct MCU GPIO drive. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low output resistance | 12Ω typical - maintains tight regulation under dynamic 60mA loads common in LCD segment drivers. |
| EMI-optimized switching | Slew-rate limited oscillator - reduces radiated emissions in proximity to RF receivers and audio amplifiers. |
| Startup current limiting | 170mA max - prevents brownout of weak alkaline or coin-cell sources during power-up or wake-from-shutdown. |
| Thermal fault protection | +150°C trip with 15°C hysteresis - autonomously disables switching during sustained overload or poor heatsinking. |
| Minimal external components | Only two 1µF ceramic caps required - eliminates inductors and simplifies layout for ultra-thin wearable PCBs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar inverting charge-pump applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX1697SEUT+T | 35kHz oscillator frequency; higher 17Ω output resistance; 150µA quiescent current | Better low-EMI performance but larger output capacitors required for same ripple | Select when EMI compliance (e.g., CISPR-22 Class B) is prioritized over board area or light-load efficiency |
| MAX1697UEUT+T | 250kHz oscillator frequency; lower 12Ω output resistance; 300µA quiescent current | Enables smaller 1µF capacitors but increases switching losses above 20mA load | Select for ultra-compact layouts where 125kHz causes excessive ripple or when cascading with other charge pumps |
Compared with MAX1697SEUT+T and MAX1697UEUT+T, the MAX1697TEUT+T offers optimal balance of capacitor size, output impedance, and quiescent power-making it preferred for general-purpose 3.3V/5V inverted rail generation in battery-powered instrumentation where moderate EMI and mid-range load currents dominate design requirements.

FAQ
What is the exact oscillator frequency of MAX1697TEUT+T?
The MAX1697TEUT+T has a factory-trimmed fixed oscillator frequency of 125kHz, confirmed in the Ordering Information table and Electrical Characteristics section. This frequency is unadjustable and optimized to minimize external capacitor size while maintaining low EMI-distinct from the 12kHz (R), 35kHz (S), and 250kHz (U) variants of the MAX1697 family.
Does MAX1697TEUT+T require external resistors for feedback or configuration?
No, the MAX1697TEUT+T is a fixed-ratio inverting charge pump with no external feedback or configuration pins. Its –1×VIN output is internally regulated by the switched-capacitor topology and does not require resistive dividers, compensation networks, or programming resistors-only two external ceramic capacitors (C1 and C2) and an optional input bypass capacitor (C3) are needed.
Can MAX1697TEUT+T be used to generate voltages other than –VIN?
No-MAX1697TEUT+T is strictly a –1×VIN inverter. It cannot produce fractional, doubled, or adjustable outputs. For non-inverting or multiplied outputs, alternative devices such as the MAX865 (doubler/inverter combo) or MAX1722 (adjustable step-up) must be selected, as the MAX1697TEUT+T's internal switch matrix and control logic are hardwired for single-stage inversion only.
What is the maximum continuous output current specification for MAX1697TEUT+T?
The MAX1697TEUT+T is rated for 60mA continuous output current under all conditions within its operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and input voltage range (+1.25V to +5.5V), as specified in the General Description and Electrical Characteristics tables. Short-circuit current is 170mA, but sustained operation above 60mA risks thermal shutdown activation.
Is MAX1697TEUT+T pin-compatible with other MAX1697 variants like MAX1697SEUT+T?
Yes-MAX1697TEUT+T is fully pin-compatible with all MAX1697 variants (R, S, T, U) in the 6-pin SOT23 package. The suffix denotes only oscillator frequency and RoHS compliance; pin functions, layout, thermal pad connection (none), and PCB footprint are identical across the family, enabling drop-in frequency optimization without redesign.
