Product details
Overview
The MAX619ESA from Maxim Integrated is a regulated 5V ±4% charge-pump DC-DC converter designed for battery-powered systems requiring compact, inductorless voltage boosting. It delivers up to 50mA output current from a 2V–3.6V input (e.g., two alkaline or NiMH cells), features 500kHz internal switching, 1µA max shutdown current, and operates across –40°C to +85°C.
For engineers reviewing the MAX619ESA datasheet, MAX619ESA pinout, MAX19ESA application, or MAX619ESA equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed output current over temperature, ultra-low shutdown quiescent current, absence of magnetic components, SO-8 package compatibility, and precise 5V regulation without external feedback resistors.
Technical Context
The MAX619ESA uses a pulse-skipping controller to regulate output voltage by dynamically selecting between voltage-doubler (VIN ≥3.0V), voltage-tripler (VIN ≤2.5V), or 2.5× mode (2.5V < VIN < 3.0V) charge-pump operation. Internal circuitry is powered from the higher of VIN or VOUT to maximize efficiency across the input range.
It integrates CMOS-compatible active-high shutdown with load disconnection, supports capacitor-based energy transfer only (no inductors), and achieves typical 80% efficiency at VIN = 2V and IOUT = 20mA. Output ripple is specified at 100mV peak-to-peak under full-load transient conditions.
Key Specifications

| Max Output Current | 50mA @ VIN ≥3V - guaranteed delivery over full –40°C to +85°C operating range. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.0V to 3.6V - supports two-cell battery stacks including depleted alkaline, NiMH, and Li-ion backup sources. |
| Shutdown Current | 1µA max - enables long-term battery preservation in sleep-mode portable instruments. |
| Switching Frequency | 500kHz fixed - allows use of small 0.22µF ceramic flying capacitors and minimizes EMI filtering burden. |

| Package | 8-pin SO - surface-mount compatible with standard reflow profiles; footprint matches industry-standard SOIC-8. |
Pinout & Package
The MAX619ESA is housed in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package, 3.9mm × 4.9mm body size, 1.27mm lead pitch, JEDEC MS-012 compliant. Thermal performance supports 471mW continuous power dissipation at +70°C ambient (derated 5.88mW/°C above).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| C1+ | Positive terminal of flying capacitor C1 | Connects to one plate of first charge-pump capacitor; critical node for energy transfer in tripler/doubler modes. |
| C1− | Negative terminal of flying capacitor C1 | Reference node for C1; tied internally to switching matrix; must be low-inductance connection. |
| SHDN | Active-high CMOS shutdown control | Logic-high (>0.7×VIN) halts switching and disconnects OUT from IN; draws ≤10µA. |
| GND | Analog and power ground reference | Common return for all internal circuitry; requires low-impedance PCB plane connection. |
| C2− | Negative terminal of flying capacitor C2 | Second flying capacitor node; shares switching path with C1 in tripler mode. |
| C2+ | Positive terminal of flying capacitor C2 | Completes charge-pump capacitor pair; used in both doubler and tripler configurations. |
| IN | Main input supply connection | Accepts 2V–3.6V source; powers internal logic and supplies charge-pump energy path. |
| OUT | Regulated 5V output | Delivers up to 50mA; drops to 0V during shutdown; requires ≥10µF output capacitance for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-inductor architecture | Eliminates magnetic EMI, simplifies layout, and reduces BOM cost-uses only four external capacitors. |
| Auto-ranging charge-pump topology | Dynamically selects doubler/tripler/2.5× mode to maintain >75% efficiency across full 2V–3.6V input range. |
| Load-disconnect shutdown | Physically isolates output from input during shutdown-prevents backfeed and preserves battery charge. |
| Ultra-compact solution size | Full functional circuit occupies <0.1in² (≈645mm²) board area-ideal for space-constrained handheld devices. |
| Guaranteed output current over temperature | 50mA minimum at VIN ≥3V and TA = –40°C to +85°C-enables robust design without derating. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar regulated charge-pump DC-DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS60110IDR | Fixed 5V output, 100mA max, 1.8V–3.6V input, 1.2MHz switching, SO-8 package. | Higher output current but higher quiescent current (250µA no-load vs. 150µA for MAX619ESA); less efficient below 2.5V. | Prefer when >50mA load or faster transient response required; verify thermal margin in SO-8 at full load. |
| LT1054CS8#PBF | 5V ±4% output, 120mA max, 3.5V–15V input, 25kHz switching, SO-8 package. | Wider input range but incompatible with sub-3.5V battery sources; larger output ripple (200mV); no shutdown disconnect. | Choose only for systems with ≥3.5V input; not suitable for two-cell battery designs due to minimum VIN violation. |
Compared with TPS60110IDR and LT1054CS8#PBF, the MAX619ESA uniquely balances ultra-low shutdown current (1µA), guaranteed 50mA output down to 2V input, and true load-disconnect functionality-making it optimal for long-life, low-voltage portable systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current specification for the MAX619ESA across its full operating temperature range?
The MAX619ESA guarantees 50mA output current when VIN ≥3.0V and over its full –40°C to +85°C operating temperature range. At VIN ≥2.0V, it guarantees 20mA under the same conditions. These values are tested and specified in the official datasheet's Electrical Characteristics table, ensuring design margin for industrial portable equipment.
Does the MAX619ESA require external feedback resistors to set its output voltage?
No, the MAX619ESA does not require external feedback resistors. Its 5V ±4% output is internally regulated using a precision bandgap reference and pulse-skipping control loop. This fixed-output architecture eliminates resistor tolerance errors and reduces component count-critical for miniaturized battery-powered designs using the MAX619ESA.
Can the MAX619ESA operate from a single lithium coin cell (e.g., CR2032)?
No, the MAX619ESA cannot reliably operate from a single CR2032 cell. Its minimum input voltage is 2.0V, and a fresh CR2032 typically starts at ~3.0V but drops rapidly under load. More critically, the MAX619ESA requires ≥2.0V continuously to sustain regulation-CR2032 discharge curves fall below this threshold early in discharge, causing output collapse. The MAX619ESA is designed for two-cell alkaline/NiMH or regulated 2.5–3.6V sources.
What is the purpose of the C1+ and C1− pins on the MAX619ESA, and how are they used in the circuit?
The C1+ and C1− pins on the MAX619ESA connect to the terminals of the first flying capacitor (C1), which stores and transfers charge during the charge-pump cycle. In tripler mode, both C1 and C2 participate; in doubler mode, only C2 is active. These pins interface directly with internal MOSFET switches-correct polarity and low-ESR ceramic capacitor placement (typically 0.22µF) is essential for stable MAX619ESA operation and efficiency.
Is the MAX619ESA pin-compatible with other variants in the MAX619 family, such as the MAX619CSA or MAX619EPA?
Yes, the MAX619ESA is pin-compatible with all other MAX619 variants-including MAX619CSA, MAX619EPA, and MAX619CPA-because all share identical 8-pin DIP or SO footprints and identical pin functions. The only differences are temperature rating (–40°C to +85°C for ESA), packaging (SO), and screening level. No PCB redesign is needed when upgrading from CSA to ESA for extended-temperature operation.
