Product details
Overview
MAX662AESA+T from Maxim Integrated is a regulated +12V, 30mA charge-pump DC-DC converter designed for flash memory programming supplies. It delivers ±5% output regulation from 4.75V–5.5V input, requires no inductors, uses only four external capacitors, and operates across –40°C to +85°C.
For engineers reviewing the MAX662AESA+T datasheet, MAX662AESA+T pinout, MAX662AESA+T application, or MAX662AESA+T equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 30mA output at ±5% regulation, 0.5µA shutdown current, 185µA quiescent current, and compatibility with byte-wide flash VPP programming in compact industrial and embedded systems.
Technical Context
The MAX662AESA+T implements a pulse-skipping feedback control scheme that monitors VOUT and activates internal charge pumps only when output voltage droops. Its dual-capacitor voltage-tripling architecture (C1/C2) enables +12V generation without magnetic components.
It features a logic-controlled, active-high SHDN pin with internal VCC pull-up; in shutdown, VOUT connects to VCC via a 1kΩ switch, reducing supply current to 0.5µA. Oscillation frequency is nominally 500kHz under full load and varies dynamically with load and input voltage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | +12V ±5% - meets JEDEC-compliant flash VPP programming spec across temperature and load |
| Output Current | Guaranteed 30mA continuous - sufficient for byte-wide flash write/erase cycles |
| Input Voltage Range | 4.75V to 5.5V - compatible with standard 5V ±5% logic rails |
| Quiescent Current | 185µA - enables low-power standby in microprocessor-controlled programming sequences |
| Shutdown Current | 0.5µA - allows deep sleep during flash idle periods without external power gating |
| Oscillator Frequency | 500kHz nominal - determines capacitor sizing and ripple profile; scales with load |
| Efficiency | 76% typical at 5V/30mA - minimizes thermal rise in space-constrained PCB layouts |
Pinout & Package
MAX662AESA+T is housed in an 8-pin narrow SO (SOIC-N) package, 3.9mm × 4.9mm footprint, with gull-wing leads and 1.27mm pitch. Pin 1 marked by beveled corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| C1− | Negative terminal of first charge-pump capacitor | Return node for C1 during charging phase; must be routed with minimal trace inductance |
| C1+ | Positive terminal of first charge-pump capacitor | Switched node connecting C1 to VCC and VOUT; critical for voltage tripling path |
| C2− | Negative terminal of second charge-pump capacitor | Shared reference between C1 and C2; ties to internal switching matrix ground |
| C2+ | Positive terminal of second charge-pump capacitor | High-side switching node enabling series stacking of C1 and C2 for 3× multiplication |
| GND | Power and signal ground reference | Common return for all internal circuitry; must connect to low-impedance system ground plane |
| VOUT | +12V regulated output | Supplies flash VPP; connects to VCC via 1kΩ switch in shutdown mode |
| VCC | Main supply input (4.75V–5.5V) | Power source for internal oscillator, control logic, and charge-pump drivers |
| SHDN | Active-high shutdown control | CMOS/TTL-compatible input; internally pulled up to VCC; tie to GND for normal operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Inductorless charge-pump topology | Eliminates EMI-sensitive magnetics and simplifies layout-only four surface-mount capacitors required |
| Logic-controlled shutdown | Reduces system-level standby power by >99.7% versus active operation, enabling µP-synchronized VPP enable |
| Guaranteed output over full temp range | Delivers 30mA at ±5% regulation from –40°C to +85°C-no derating needed for industrial environments |
| Pin-compatible upgrade to MAX662 | Direct drop-in replacement with lower quiescent/shutdown currents and no need for optional C3 capacitor |
| Surface-mount only design | Entire solution fits in <0.1 in² board area-ideal for high-density flash programming modules and memory cards |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX662ACSA | Same functionality but rated for 0°C to +70°C commercial temperature range; identical pinout and electrical specs | Suitable for non-industrial environments where extended temperature operation is not required | Select MAX662ACSA for cost-sensitive consumer or lab-grade designs operating within 0°C–70°C |
| MAX734ESA+ | Switch-mode (PWM) architecture delivering 120mA; requires inductor; higher efficiency (85%) at full load | Used when >30mA flash programming current or tighter regulation under dynamic load is required | Choose MAX734ESA+ only if output current demand exceeds 30mA or inductor use is acceptable |
Compared with MAX662ACSA, the MAX662AESA+T offers extended temperature support and slightly improved shutdown current; compared with MAX734ESA+, it trades higher current capability for inductorless simplicity and smaller footprint-making MAX662AESA+T optimal for space-constrained, 30mA flash programming.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MAX662AESA+T?
The MAX662AESA+T is specified for operation from –40°C to +85°C. This extended industrial temperature range is confirmed in the Ordering Information table and Absolute Maximum Ratings section of the datasheet. It ensures reliable performance in demanding environments such as factory automation controllers and outdoor embedded systems where ambient temperatures exceed commercial-grade limits. The MAX662AESA+T maintains its guaranteed 30mA output and ±5% regulation across this full range.
Does the MAX662AESA+T require an external inductor?
No, the MAX662AESA+T does not require an external inductor. It uses a capacitor-based charge-pump topology with two external flying capacitors (C1 and C2) and two bypass/filter capacitors (C4 and C5). The datasheet explicitly states "No Inductor-Uses Only 4 Capacitors" in the Features list and confirms this in the General Description. This eliminates inductor-related EMI, size, and cost penalties-making the MAX662AESA+T ideal for ultra-compact PCB layouts.
How does the shutdown function work on the MAX662AESA+T?
The MAX662AESA+T features an active-high, CMOS/TTL-compatible SHDN pin (Pin 8) that is internally pulled up to VCC. When SHDN is driven high, the internal charge pumps halt, and VOUT connects to VCC through a 1kΩ internal switch-reducing supply current to just 0.5µA. When SHDN is grounded, the device operates normally. The datasheet specifies a typical 400µs startup time from shutdown to regulated +12V output at VCC = 5V.
Can the MAX662AESA+T be used to generate +20V in addition to +12V?
Yes, the MAX662AESA+T can generate +20V using an external diode-capacitor voltage doubler stage, as shown in Figure 4 of the datasheet. In this configuration, the +12V output serves as input to the doubler, yielding ~+20V. Figure 5 characterizes the +20V output current capability (up to ~19mA at 20V with 34mA load on the +12V rail). This dual-output capability is validated in the Applications Information section and requires no modification to the MAX662AESA+T itself.
Is the MAX662AESA+T pin-compatible with the original MAX662?
Yes, the MAX662AESA+T is fully pin-compatible with the MAX662. The General Description states it is "a pin-compatible upgrade to the MAX662" and "100%-compatible." Electrical differences include lower quiescent (185µA vs. unspecified higher value) and shutdown (0.5µA vs. unspecified) currents, plus guaranteed output current over full temperature range. The MAX662AESA+T also eliminates the need for optional capacitor C3 required by the MAX662.
