Product details
Overview
MAX77813EWP33+T from Analog Devices is a synchronous buck-boost DC-DC converter optimized for single-cell Li+/Li-ion battery systems. It regulates output voltage from 2.6V to 5.14V across 2.3V–5.5V input, delivers up to 3A in buck mode and 2A in boost mode, operates at 2.5MHz switching frequency, and supports I²C-programmable voltage scaling-enabling dynamic power management in compact AR/VR headsets and mobile payment terminals.
For engineers reviewing the MAX77813EWP33+T datasheet, MAX77813EWP33+T pinout, MAX77813EWP33+T application, or MAX77813EWP33+T equivalent, key selection criteria include verified 20-bump WLP package compatibility, confirmed 3.4MHz high-speed I²C interface support, validated 97% peak efficiency at 100mA load, and documented thermal shutdown at +165°C with 20°C hysteresis.
Technical Context
The MAX77813EWP33+T implements a fixed-frequency (2.5MHz) current-mode PWM control scheme with H-bridge topology using a single inductor. Its three-phase switching sequence (Φ1–Φ3) enables seamless buck-to-boost transition without discontinuity, maintaining regulation during input voltage crossovers like 3.4V → 2.9V under 1.5A load.
It integrates dual current-limit selection (ILIM pin), soft-start with programmable ramp time (120µs/800µs), and burst-mode enhancement for transient loads exceeding ILIM_LX. Protection includes overvoltage (120% VOUT default), overcurrent, thermal shutdown (+165°C), and active discharge via 100Ω internal resistor.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 2.30V to 5.5V - supports full discharge curve of single Li+/Li-ion cell (2.7V–4.2V nominal, down to 2.3V cutoff) |
| VOUT Range | 2.60V to 5.14V in 20mV steps - I²C-programmable for precise rail matching (e.g., 3.3V, 3.4V, 4.56V factory defaults) |
| Output Current | Up to 3A in buck mode, 2A in boost mode - determined by ILIM pin state and input/output voltage differential |
| Switching Frequency | 2.25MHz to 2.75MHz (typ 2.5MHz) - enables use of small 1µH inductor and minimizes EMI filtering requirements |
| Peak Efficiency | 97% - achieved at mid-load (e.g., 100mA @ 3.3V out, VIN = 3.8V), critical for battery runtime extension |
| Quiescent Current | 55µA (typ) in SKIP mode - ensures ultra-low standby power for always-on system rails |
| I²C Interface | 3.4MHz high-speed mode - allows rapid voltage scaling during processor DVFS transitions without interrupting operation |
Pinout & Package
The MAX77813EWP33+T is housed in a 20-bump wafer-level package (WLP), measuring 2.13mm × 1.83mm with 0.4mm pitch. This ultra-compact, bottom-terminal package enables high-density layout in space-constrained portable devices.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VSYS | Battery/system supply input | Accepts 2.3V–5.5V raw battery voltage; requires 1µF ceramic bypass to AGND |
| IN | Primary power input node | Connected to VSYS through low-impedance path; bypassed with 10µF ceramic to PGND |
| OUT | Regulated output node | Delivers 2.6V–5.14V; requires 47µF ceramic capacitor to PGND for stability and ripple suppression |
| LX1 / LX2 | H-bridge switching nodes | Drive external 1µH inductor; each rated for 3.2A RMS continuous current; require tight loop layout to PGND |
| FB | Output voltage feedback | Senses regulated output via resistive divider; sets VOUT with ±1.0% accuracy in FPWM mode |
| POK | Open-drain power-good indicator | Asserts high-Z when VOUT ≥ 80% target; sinks current when VOUT < 75% or device disabled |
| EN | Active-high enable input | Internal 800kΩ pulldown ensures safe default-off state; VIH = 1.2V min at –40°C |
| ILIM | Inductor current limit selector | Pull high for 4.5A typ limit (supports 3A buck / 2A boost); pull low for 1.8A limit (650mA/800mA) |
| SCL / SDA | I²C serial interface | Support 3.4MHz HS mode; require 1.5kΩ–2.2kΩ pullups to VIO (1.7V–3.6V) |
| VIO | I²C logic supply | Independent 1.7V–3.6V rail; bypassed with 0.1µF ceramic to AGND |
| AGND / PGND | Analog & power ground | Must be connected on PCB; AGND ties to PGND at single point near IC to minimize noise coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck-boost converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS63802DLAR | Fixed 3.3V/5.0V outputs (non-I²C); 2.5A max output; 2.4MHz switching; no POK or ILIM pin | Lacks dynamic voltage scaling and hardware current limit selection - suitable only for static-rail designs | Choose when I²C control and programmable current limits are unnecessary and board space permits larger 12-bump QFN |

FAQ
What is the factory-default output voltage for MAX77813EWP33+T?
The MAX77813EWP33+T is ordered with "P33" suffix indicating a factory-programmed default output voltage of 3.3V. This value is stored in the VOUT[6:0] register at power-up and can be overwritten via I²C. The device maintains this setting until reset or power cycle, and supports fine-grained adjustment in 20mV increments across the full 2.6V–5.14V range.
Does MAX77813EWP33+T support both buck and boost operation simultaneously?
No - the MAX77813EWP33+T does not operate in true simultaneous buck-and-boost mode. Instead, it seamlessly transitions between buck (VIN > VOUT) and boost (VIN < VOUT) topologies using a single inductor and H-bridge architecture. During VIN ≈ VOUT (e.g., 3.4V input, 3.3V output), it dynamically selects optimal phase combinations (Φ1–Φ3) within each 2.5MHz clock cycle to maintain regulation without discontinuity or voltage glitch.
How does the ILIM pin affect maximum output current in MAX77813EWP33+T?
The ILIM pin on the MAX77813EWP33+T selects between two inductor current limit thresholds: pulling ILIM high configures 4.5A typical limit (supporting up to 3A in buck mode and 2A in boost mode), while pulling ILIM low sets 1.8A typical limit (supporting up to 800mA buck / 650mA boost). These settings directly determine achievable output current under given VIN/VOUT conditions and must be hardwired before power-up - floating ILIM is prohibited.
What is the purpose of the POK pin on MAX77813EWP33+T, and how is it used?
POK on the MAX77813EWP33+T is an open-drain power-good indicator that signals valid regulation: it goes high-impedance when VOUT reaches ≥80% of target, and pulls low when VOUT drops below 75% or the device is disabled. An external 10kΩ–100kΩ pullup resistor to VIO or VSYS is required. Polarity is configurable via I²C POK_POL bit, enabling direct connection to processor reset or PMIC sequencing logic without level-shifting.
Can MAX77813EWP33+T operate without I²C communication enabled?
Yes - the MAX77813EWP33+T operates fully autonomously without I²C. Factory-default VOUT (3.3V for MAX77813EWP33+T), switching frequency, and protection thresholds are active immediately after enable. I²C is optional for dynamic reconfiguration (e.g., voltage scaling during DVFS, reading fault status, or modifying OVP threshold). SDA/SCL pins may be tied to AGND if unused, and VIO can be connected to AGND to disable the interface entirely.
