Product details
Overview
The MAX8614BETD/V+ from Maxim Integrated is a dual-output, fixed-frequency (1MHz) step-up/inverting DC-DC converter IC designed for CCD bias and OLED display power in portable imaging systems. It delivers up to +24V positive output (50mA) and −16V relative to VCC negative output (100mA) from a 2.7V–5.5V input, with True Shutdown™, pin-selectable sequencing, and integrated overload/thermal protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX8614BETD/V+ datasheet, MAX8614BETD/V+ pinout, MAX8614BETD/V+ application, or MAX8614BETD/V+ equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed operating ranges, and real-world design implications for CCD imaging power rails - including current-limit differentiation vs. MAX8614A, fault-flag behavior, and automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualification.
Technical Context
The MAX8614BETD/V+ integrates two independent PWM current-mode regulators sharing a 1MHz oscillator: one step-up controller driving LXP/PVP with 0.8A peak inductor current limit, and one inverting controller driving LXN with 0.75A peak limit. Both use internal slope compensation and error amplifiers referenced to 1.25V (REF) and 1.01V (FBP), enabling precise voltage positioning and fast transient response.
Its control architecture supports pin-selectable power-on sequencing (SEQ), independent enable logic (ONBST/ONINV), soft-start with controlled inrush (<500mA), and fault detection via open-drain FLT asserting low after 100ms overload. The device implements True Shutdown™ by disconnecting both outputs from VCC using internal PVP and LXN switches, achieving 0.1µA shutdown current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion and regulated 3.3V/5V rails without external pre-regulation. |
| Positive Output Range | Up to +24V - adjustable via FBP feedback divider; enables high-voltage CCD gate bias (e.g., +15V to +20V). |
| Negative Output Range | Up to −16V relative to VCC - adjustable via FBN/REF divider; supports −7.5V to −12.7V (at VCC=3.3V) for CCD substrate bias. |
| LXP Peak Current Limit | 0.8A (typ) - higher than MAX8614A's 0.44A, enabling 50mA at +15V with margin for load transients. |
| LXN Peak Current Limit | 0.75A (typ) - supports 100mA at −7.5V while maintaining stability under dynamic CCD load steps. |
| Switching Frequency | 1MHz (±7%) - enables compact 2.2µH–4.7µH inductors and reduces EMI filtering burden in noise-sensitive imaging paths. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.1µA at +25°C - minimizes battery drain during camera standby, critical for portable digital cameras and camcorders. |
Pinout & Package
MAX8614BETD/V+ uses a 3mm × 3mm, 14-pin TDFN package with exposed pad (EP) connected to GND. Pin numbering follows top-view orientation with Pin 1 at top-left corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 ONBST | Step-up enable input | Active-high logic control; ties to AVCC for automatic startup or driven externally for sequenced power delivery. |
| 2 FBN | Negative output feedback | Connects to resistor divider between VINV and REF (1.25V); sets negative output voltage with 0V threshold. |
| 3 AVCC | Bias supply | Must be tied directly to VCC; powers internal analog circuitry and reference; bypassed with 0.22µF ceramic to GND. |
| 4 REF | 1.25V precision reference | Stable internal reference used for FBN feedback and soft-start ramp; requires 0.22µF ceramic decoupling. |
| 5 GND | Analog ground | Low-noise return for REF, FBP, FBN; must be short-traced to PGND to minimize switching noise coupling. |
| 6 FLT | Fault flag output | Open-drain active-low signal asserting after 100ms overload or thermal shutdown; pulled up to AVCC via 100kΩ. |
| 7 FBP | Positive output feedback | Connects to resistor divider between VBST and GND; 1.01V threshold enables precise +15V/+20V regulation. |
| 8 SEQ | Sequencing select | Logic input determining startup order: low = independent ONBST/ONINV control; high = positive output first. |
| 9 ONINV | Inverter enable input | Active-high logic control; enables/disables inverter independently or synchronously with step-up converter. |
| 10 LXP | Step-up switch node | High-impedance in shutdown; connects to inductor and catch diode anode; handles 0.8A peak current. |
| 11 PGND | Power ground | High-current return for LXN/LXP switches; must be short-traced to GND to reduce ground bounce and EMI. |
| 12 PVP | True Shutdown load switch | Internal MOSFET disconnecting VCC from LXP in shutdown; eliminates battery drain path through external diode. |
| 13 VCC | Main power input | Supplies both converters; must be tied to AVCC; accepts 2.7V–5.5V with UVLO threshold at 2.55V (typ). |
| 14 LXN | Inverter switch node | High-impedance in shutdown; connects to inductor and catch diode cathode; handles 0.75A peak current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent regulation | Simultaneous +24V and −16V (vs. VCC) outputs with separate feedback loops (FBP/FBN) and current limits. |
| True Shutdown™ | Zero-load current path from VCC to either output: PVP disconnects step-up side; LXN switch disables inverter. |
| Pin-selectable sequencing | SEQ pin configures startup order - critical for CCD imagers requiring specific bias voltage ramp timing. |
| 1MHz fixed-frequency PWM | Enables use of small 2.2µH–4.7µH inductors and reduces EMI filtering complexity in compact camera PCBs. |
| Overload/thermal protection | FLT asserts low after 100ms overload; thermal shutdown at +170°C (typ); auto-recovery after cooldown. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Automotive-grade reliability: rated for −40°C to +85°C operation with enhanced process controls and testing. |

FAQ
What is the key functional difference between MAX8614BETD/V+ and MAX8614AETD+?
The MAX8614BETD/V+ features higher current limits: 0.8A peak on LXP (step-up) and 0.75A peak on LXN (inverter), versus 0.44A and 0.33A for MAX8614AETD+. This enables the MAX8614BETD/V+ to sustain 50mA at +15V and 100mA at −7.5V, making it suitable for higher-power CCD sensors where the MAX8614AETD+ would saturate. All other features - pinout, sequencing, True Shutdown™, and AEC-Q100 qualification - are identical.
Does MAX8614BETD/V+ support adjustable output voltages, and how is regulation achieved?
Yes, MAX8614BETD/V+ supports fully adjustable outputs: the positive rail (VBST) is set via a resistor divider from VBST to GND connected to FBP (1.01V threshold), and the negative rail (VINV) is set via a divider from VINV to REF (1.25V) connected to FBN (0V threshold). Regulation is maintained by independent current-mode PWM controllers with internal error amplifiers, enabling tight line/load regulation and voltage positioning for minimal transient droop.
What does the "/V+" suffix in MAX8614BETD/V+ signify, and why does it matter for design-in?
The "/V+" suffix indicates AEC-Q100 qualification and lead(Pb)-free/RoHS-compliant packaging. This means MAX8614BETD/V+ has undergone automotive-grade stress testing (including temperature cycling, HTOL, and ESD), is rated for −40°C to +85°C operation, and meets strict material content requirements. For industrial or medical portable devices requiring high reliability, this suffix validates long-term stability and supply chain continuity beyond commercial-grade alternatives.
How does True Shutdown™ work in MAX8614BETD/V+, and what benefit does it provide?
True Shutdown™ in MAX8614BETD/V+ actively breaks both DC current paths: the internal PVP switch disconnects VCC from LXP on the step-up side, and the LXN switch turns off on the inverter side. This eliminates battery drain through external diodes or loads during shutdown - reducing quiescent current to just 0.1µA. In contrast, conventional boost converters retain a diode-based path, causing continuous leakage that depletes batteries in always-on imaging devices.
Can MAX8614BETD/V+ be used without external components, and what are the minimum required parts?
No, MAX8614BETD/V+ requires external components for operation: two inductors (2.2µH–4.7µH), two Schottky catch diodes (e.g., MBR0530L), input bypass capacitor (≥22µF), REF bypass (0.22µF), and feedback resistors for FBP/FBN. Minimum required parts include LXP/LXN inductors, PVP-connected diode, REF capacitor, and FB dividers - omitting any causes failure to regulate or risk instability. Full BOM is detailed in the Typical Operating Circuit (Figure 1) of the datasheet.
