Product details
Overview
MAX8805YEWECC+T from Maxim Integrated is a 2MHz, 600mA high-frequency step-down converter with dual 200mA low-noise LDOs and integrated 60mΩ bypass FET, designed specifically to dynamically power WCDMA/NCDMA power amplifiers in mobile handsets. It supports analog voltage control (REFIN-to-PA gain = 2V/V), delivers 2.7V output from LDO1/LDO2 (ECC code), operates from 2.7V–5.5V input, and features <35µVRMS noise and 70dB PSRR.
For engineers reviewing the MAX8805YEWECC+T datasheet, MAX8805YEWECC+T pinout, MAX8805YEWECC+T application, or MAX8805YEWECC+T equivalent, key selection considerations include its 2MHz switching frequency, 2V/V REFIN-to-PA gain, 2.7V LDO output (ECC code), bypass-mode dropout performance, and UCSP-16 package compatibility for space-constrained PA power rails.
Technical Context
The MAX8805YEWECC+T implements a hysteretic PWM control scheme enabling fast transient response (<7.5µs settling for 0.8V→3.4V) and stable operation with minimal external components-only 2.2µF ceramic capacitors required on IN1/IN2 and PA outputs. Its voltage-positioning feedback architecture removes phase lag by sampling LX directly, eliminating need for large output capacitance while maintaining tight load regulation.
Bypass mode is activated either automatically when VREFIN exceeds 0.465×VIN2 or forcibly via HP logic input, engaging a 60mΩ p-channel MOSFET to connect battery directly to PA output. Dual LDOs operate independently with individual EN1/EN2 controls, each delivering 200mA at 35µVRMS noise and 70dB PSRR across 10Hz–10kHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 2MHz - enables use of compact 2.2µF ceramic input/output capacitors and reduces EMI filtering burden. |
| PA Output Drive | 600mA - sufficient for mid-power WCDMA/NCDMA PA stages without thermal derating in 2mm×2mm package. |
| REFIN-to-PA Gain | 2V/V - linear analog control allows precise, continuous PA voltage adjustment from 0.4V to VBATT using external DAC. |
| LDO Output Voltage (ECC) | 2.7V ±3% - factory-trimmed dual LDOs provide stable bias for PA driver stages with guaranteed 200mA drive capability. |
| Bypass FET RDS(ON) | 60mΩ typ - minimizes dropout and conduction loss during high-power transmission, extending battery life. |
| LDO Noise | 35µVRMS - ultra-low noise ensures clean bias for sensitive RF front-end circuitry without added filtering. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.1µA - enables deep sleep modes in handset baseband processors to conserve standby power. |
Pinout & Package
MAX8805YEWECC+T is housed in a 16-bump, 2mm × 2mm × 0.7mm UCSP (Ultra Compact Silicon Package) with 4×4 bump grid, optimized for ultra-thin mobile handset PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1: REFBP | Reference noise bypass node | Internal 1.25V bandgap reference output; must be decoupled with 0.22µF ceramic to AGND to suppress LDO output noise. |
| A2: AGND | Analog ground reference | Low-noise return path for REFBP, REFIN, LDOs; must be isolated from PGND and connected via single-point star ground. |
| A3: REFIN | Analog control input for PA output | Directly sets PA output voltage as VPA ≈ 2 × VREFIN; automatic bypass triggers at 0.465 × VIN2. |
| A4: PGND | Power ground for PA converter | High-current return for LX, PAA/PAB, IN1A/IN1B; requires dedicated copper pour separate from AGND. |
| B1: LDO2 | Second 200mA LDO output | Provides 2.7V (ECC code) bias; requires local 1µF ceramic capacitor to AGND for stability and PSRR optimization. |
| B2: PA_EN | Enable control for PA converter | Active-high logic input; drives PA converter into shutdown (0.1µA IQ) when pulled low or grounded. |
| B3: EN2 | Enable control for LDO2 | Independent logic enable for LDO2; allows dynamic power gating of second PA bias rail. |
| B4: LX | Switch node for PA inductor | Connects to external 1.5µH inductor; carries high di/dt switching current; requires short, low-inductance layout. |
| C1: IN2 | Supply input for LDOs & reference | 2.7V–5.5V input shared with IN1A/IN1B; requires 2.2µF ceramic bypass to AGND near pin. |
| C2: HP | Forced bypass mode control | Active-high input that immediately engages 60mΩ bypass FET, overriding automatic threshold behavior. |
| C3/C4: IN1B/IN1A | PA converter supply inputs | Internally shorted; accept same 2.7V–5.5V battery source as IN2; require local 2.2µF ceramic to PGND. |
| D1: LDO1 | First 200mA LDO output | Delivers 2.7V (ECC code); identical specs to LDO2; requires 1µF ceramic bypass to AGND. |
| D2: EN1 | Enable control for LDO1 | Independent logic enable for LDO1; supports staggered power-up sequencing in multi-rail PA subsystems. |
| D3/D4: PAB/PAA | PA output terminals in bypass mode | Internally connected to IN1A/IN1B via bypass FET; require 2.2µF ceramic bypass to PGND for ripple suppression. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dynamic PA voltage control | Linear 2V/V gain from 0.4V–2.2V REFIN enables precise, real-time PA power adjustment without digital interface overhead. |
| Ultra-fast load transient response | 7.5µs settling time for 0.8V→3.4V output change maintains PA linearity during rapid modulation bursts in WCDMA. |
| Voltage-positioning feedback | Direct LX sensing eliminates output capacitor phase lag, allowing stable regulation with only 2.2µF ceramic output cap. |
| Dual independent LDOs | Each delivers 200mA at 35µVRMS noise and 70dB PSRR, enabling clean, separately controllable bias for PA driver and pre-driver stages. |
| Auto/forced bypass mode | Automatic entry at 0.465×VIN2 or HP-driven forced mode ensures seamless transition to low-dropout battery coupling during peak transmit power. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PA power management applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX8805WERExy+T | 2.5V/V REFIN-to-PA gain, 650mA output, same 2MHz switching frequency and UCSP-16 package. | Requires higher REFIN voltage (e.g., 1.08V for 2.7V PA output) and delivers 50mA more current; suitable where higher PA drive is needed. | Select when PA load exceeds 600mA or system DAC supports 0.72V–1.76V REFIN range. |
| MAX8805ZERExy+T | 2V/V gain like MAX8805YEWECC+T but 4MHz switching frequency, same 600mA rating and UCSP-16 package. | Enables smaller inductors/caps (e.g., 1.0µH) and lower output ripple at cost of ~3% efficiency reduction at medium loads. | Select when board area is constrained and 4MHz operation aligns with system EMI requirements. |
Compared with MAX8805WERExy+T, MAX8805YEWECC+T provides tighter REFIN voltage range for 2.7V PA output and matches typical WCDMA PA current demands; versus MAX8805ZERExy+T, it trades higher efficiency at 2MHz for relaxed EMI filter design and proven thermal performance in thin handset assemblies.

FAQ
What is the exact output voltage of the LDOs in MAX8805YEWECC+T?
The MAX8805YEWECC+T features two factory-trimmed LDOs both set to 2.7V nominal output (ECC code), with guaranteed tolerance of ±3% (2.619V to 2.781V) across temperature and load. This voltage is specified at VIN2 = 5.5V/3.4V and ILDO = 1mA/100mA, and remains stable due to 70dB PSRR and 35µVRMS noise performance.
How does the bypass mode function in MAX8805YEWECC+T?
The MAX8805YEWECC+T supports both automatic and forced bypass modes. Automatic bypass activates when VREFIN exceeds 0.465 × VIN2, connecting IN1A/IN1B directly to PAA/PAB via a 60mΩ internal p-channel FET. Forced bypass is triggered by driving the HP pin high. In either case, the step-down converter enters 100% duty cycle, minimizing dropout and maximizing battery-to-PA efficiency during high-power transmission.
What is the REFIN-to-PA voltage gain for MAX8805YEWECC+T?
The MAX8805YEWECC+T has a fixed REFIN-to-PA gain of 2V/V, meaning the PA output voltage approximates VPA = 2 × VREFIN − ½ × LESR × ILOAD. For a target 2.7V PA output, VREFIN should be set to ~1.35V (adjusted for inductor DCR). This gain is specific to the Y/Z variants and differs from the 2.5V/V gain used in W/X variants.
Which package type is used by MAX8805YEWECC+T?
The MAX8805YEWECC+T uses a 16-bump Ultra Compact Silicon Package (UCSP) measuring 2mm × 2mm × 0.7mm with a 4×4 bump grid. This lead-free, RoHS-compliant package is optimized for ultra-thin mobile handset PCBs and requires JEDEC J-STD-020A-compliant reflow profiles with preheating.
Does MAX8805YEWECC+T support independent control of its two LDOs?
Yes, MAX8805YEWECC+T provides fully independent control of its dual 200mA LDOs via separate enable pins: EN1 controls LDO1 and EN2 controls LDO2. Each LDO can be powered up/down individually, supporting flexible power sequencing, dynamic bias scaling, and fault-isolation strategies in multi-stage PA architectures without affecting the other LDO or the main step-down converter.
