Product details
Overview
The MAX1822ESA+T from Maxim Integrated is a high-side power supply IC using a regulated charge pump to generate a stable VOUT = VCC + 11V (typ) output-enabling efficient N-channel MOSFET gate drive in high-side switching circuits across +3.5V to +16.5V input supplies. It features 150µA typical quiescent current, integrated Power-Ready (PR) output, and supports up to 25mA load current for battery-load management, stepper motor drivers, and low-dropout regulator auxiliary supplies.
For engineers reviewing the MAX1822ESA+T datasheet, MAX1822ESA+T pinout, MAX1822ESA+T application, or MAX1822ESA+T equivalent, key selection criteria include regulated high-side voltage offset, PR threshold accuracy (12–14.5V), SO-8 package compatibility, external capacitor requirements (C1/C2 = 0.01–0.047µF, C3 = 1–10µF), and absence of internal short-circuit protection requiring external current limiting.
Technical Context
The MAX1822ESA+T implements a two-stage switched-capacitor charge pump with internal feedback regulation that maintains VOUT at VCC + 11V (typ) for VCC ≥ 4V, pulse-skipping to reduce IQ when regulation is met. Its oscillator operates at 90kHz (typ), with frequency varying under load and input conditions.
Power-Ready (PR) logic-level output asserts high when VOUT reaches ≥ VCC + 8.5V (min), providing real-time gate-drive readiness indication; PR retracts low during overload or startup until regulation is established. The device lacks internal short-circuit protection and requires external current-limiting resistors if VOUT is exposed to fault conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | +3.5V to +16.5V - supports wide-range battery and line-powered systems without external regulators. |
| Output Voltage | VCC + 11V (typ), ±1.5V tolerance - delivers precise gate-drive headroom for N-channel FETs independent of input rail. |
| Quiescent Current | 150µA (typ) at VCC = 5V - enables ultra-low-power operation in always-on control circuits. |
| Max Output Current | 25mA continuous - sufficient to drive multiple high-side switch gates or op-amp bias networks. |
| Power-Ready Threshold | VCC + 12V to +14.5V - ensures reliable FET turn-on only after stable high-side voltage is achieved. |
| Output Ripple | 50mVp-p (typ) with C1/C2 = 0.047µF, C3 = 1µF - low noise suitable for sensitive analog gate-bias applications. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and portable computing environments. |
Pinout & Package
MAX1822ESA+T is housed in an 8-pin SO (SOIC-N) package with standard 1.27mm pitch and exposed pad not present. Pin functions are validated per Maxim's official pin description table and top-view schematic.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (C1+) | Primary charge-pump capacitor positive terminal | Connects to + side of C1; critical for first-stage charge transfer efficiency and ripple control. |
| 2 (C2−) | Secondary charge-pump capacitor negative terminal | Reference node for second-stage pumping; ties to GND or intermediate node depending on topology. |
| 3 (PR) | Power-Ready open-drain output | Signals external logic when VOUT ≥ VCC + 8.5V; requires pull-up resistor for active-high interface. |
| 4 (GND) | Analog and power ground reference | Common return for all internal circuitry and external capacitors; must be low-impedance. |
| 5 (VOUT) | Regulated high-side output voltage | Delivers VCC + 11V (typ); drives N-FET gates or LDO bias networks; not internally short-circuit protected. |
| 6 (C2+) | Secondary charge-pump capacitor positive terminal | Connects to + side of C2; completes second-stage charge transfer path to VOUT. |
| 7 (C1−) | Primary charge-pump capacitor negative terminal | Connects to VCC or GND depending on configuration; defines first-stage pumping polarity. |
| 8 (VCC) | Main input supply voltage | Accepts +3.5V to +16.5V; powers internal logic and oscillator; determines VOUT offset baseline. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Regulated high-side generation | VOUT precisely regulated to VCC + 11V (typ), eliminating need for P-channel FETs or PNP transistors in high-side switches. |
| Low-quiescent-current operation | 150µA typical IQ enables multi-day battery life in portable computers and battery-load management systems. |
| Integrated Power-Ready indicator | PR output asserts only when VOUT reaches ≥ VCC + 8.5V, preventing premature FET turn-on and gate oxide stress. |
| External capacitor flexibility | Supports C1/C2 values from 0.01µF to 0.047µF and C3 up to 10µF - allows ripple vs. size trade-off optimization. |
| Wide input voltage range | +3.5V to +16.5V operation accommodates single-cell Li-ion (3.6V), dual-cell alkaline (3V), and 12V industrial rails. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side power supply applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX622ESA+ | Pin-for-pin compatible; identical VOUT = VCC + 11V regulation but higher 250µA typical IQ and narrower 4.5V–13.2V input range. | Limited to mid-rail applications; unsuitable for 3.5V battery start-up or 16.5V industrial inputs. | Select MAX622ESA+ only when existing layout uses it and input stays within 4.5–13.2V; otherwise MAX1822ESA+T offers broader range and lower IQ. |
| LM27762DSGR | Single-supply inverting charge pump (VOUT = –VCC); no high-side generation capability; includes internal regulation and 200mA output. | Cannot replace MAX1822ESA+T in high-side gate-drive roles; only viable for negative bias or dual-rail generation where polarity matches. | LM27762DSGR is not a functional alternative for high-side N-FET drive; use only in complementary negative-voltage applications. |
Compared with MAX622ESA+, the MAX1822ESA+T extends usable input range by 3.5V at low end and 3.3V at high end while cutting quiescent current by 40%, making it superior for battery-backed and wide-input industrial designs; LM27762DSGR serves a fundamentally different voltage polarity function and cannot substitute in high-side configurations.

FAQ
What is the regulated output voltage of the MAX1822ESA+T?
The MAX1822ESA+T regulates its output voltage to VCC + 11V (typ), with measured values ranging from 11.5V to 29.5V depending on input voltage and load. At VCC = 5V, VOUT is typically 15.5V; at VCC = 16.5V, it reaches 27.5V. This fixed offset enables consistent N-channel FET gate overdrive across wide input ranges, and the regulation holds within ±1.5V over temperature and load.
Does the MAX1822ESA+T provide internal short-circuit protection?
No, the MAX1822ESA+T does not include internal short-circuit protection. Its absolute maximum output current is 25mA, and exceeding this-such as during VOUT-to-GND faults-can damage the device. Designers must add an external current-limiting resistor between VOUT and the load, sized using R ≥ (VOUT × number of channels) / 25mA, as specified in the MAX1822ESA+T datasheet.
How does the Power-Ready (PR) output function in the MAX1822ESA+T?
The PR output of the MAX1822ESA+T is an open-drain signal that goes high when VOUT reaches ≥ VCC + 8.5V (min), indicating stable high-side voltage is available. It remains high during normal operation and pulls low if VOUT drops below this threshold due to overload or input sag. PR requires an external pull-up resistor and is used to enable downstream FETs or logic only after safe gate drive levels are confirmed.
What capacitor values are required for stable operation of the MAX1822ESA+T?
The MAX1822ESA+T requires three external capacitors: C1 and C2 (charge-pump flying caps) and C3 (output reservoir). For VCC ≤ 13V, C1 and C2 may be 0.047µF ceramic; above 13V, they must be ≤ 0.01µF to prevent internal switch overstress. C3 ranges from 1µF to 10µF-larger values reduce ripple (e.g., 10µF yields ~15mVp-p) but increase turn-on time. All capacitors should be low-ESR ceramic types.
Is the MAX1822ESA+T pin-compatible with any other Maxim devices?
Yes, the MAX1822ESA+T is explicitly specified as a pin-for-pin replacement for the MAX622. Both share identical SO-8 pinout, VOUT = VCC + 11V regulation, PR functionality, and external capacitor requirements. However, MAX1822ESA+T extends the input range to +3.5V–+16.5V and reduces typical quiescent current from 250µA to 150µA, offering direct upgrade path in legacy MAX622 designs.
