General Description
The MAX1832–MAX1835 are high-efficiency step-up
converters with complete reverse battery protection that
protects the device and the load when the battery is
reversed. They feature a built-in synchronous rectifier,
which allows for over 90% efficiency and reduces size
and cost by eliminating the need for an external
Schottky diode.
These step-up converters operate from a +1.5V to
+5.5V input voltage range and deliver up to 150mA of
load current. The MAX1833/MAX1835 have a fixed
+3.3V output, and the MAX1832/MAX1834 have
adjustable outputs from +2V to +5.5V. In shutdown, the
MAX1832/MAX1833 connect the battery input to the
voltage output, allowing the input battery to be used as
a backup or real-time clock supply when the converter
is off (see Selector Guide).
The MAX1832–MAX1835 are available in a miniature 6pin SOT23 package. The MAX1832EVKIT is available to
shorten the design cycle.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Note 1: Thermal properties are specified with product mounted on PC board with one square-inch of copper area and still air.
Note 2: This device is constructed using a unique set of packaging techniques that impose a limit on the thermal profile the device
can be exposed to during solder attach and rework. This limit permits only the use of the solder profiles recommended in
the industry-standard specification, IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020A, paragraph 7.6, Table 3 for the IR/VPR and Convection reflow.
Preheating is required. Hand or wave soldering is not allowed.

Note 3: All units are 100% production tested at TA=+25°C. Limits over the operating temperature range are guaranteed by design
and not production tested.
Note 4: Supply current into OUT. This current correlates directly to the actual battery-supply current, but is reduced in value accord-
ing to the step-up ratio and efficiency.
