Dual Step Down Power Supply SMPS Controller using MAX17031


This is very simple electronic circuit project of dual step-down power-supply (smps) controller circuit using the MAX17031. Dual step-down power-supply (SMPS) controller can be designed a very simple high efficiency power supply circuit with synchronous rectification, intended for main 5V/3.3V power generation in battery-powered systems.

Power-Supply Controller Circuit Diagram


Low-side MOSFET sensing provides a simple low-cost, highly efficient current sense for valley current-limit protection. Combined with the output overvoltage and undervoltage protection features, this current limit ensures robust output supplies.

The device includes independent shutdown controls with well-defined logic thresholds to simplify power-up and power-down sequencing. To prevent current surges at startup, the internal voltage target is slowly ramped up from zero to the final target over a 1ms period.

The Max17031 can be used in applications like : Notebook Computers , Ultra-Mobile PC , Main System Supply (5V and 3.3V Supplies), 2 to 4 Li+ Cells Battery-Powered Devices , Telecommunication

Main features of Max 17031 are : Dual Quick-PWM , Preset 5V and 3.3V Outputs , Internal 100mA, 5V Linear Regulator , Internal OUT1 LDO5 Bypass Switch , Secondary Feedback (SKIP Input) Maintains Charge Pump , 3.3V, 5mA Real-Time Clock (RTC) Power (Always On) , 2V ±1% 50μA Reference , 6V to 24V Input Range , Pulse-Skipping/Forced-PWM/Ultrasonic Mode Control , Independent SMPS and LDO5 Enable Controls , Combined SMPS PGOOD Outputs , Minimal Component Count.

Block diagram of AM transmitter and receiver with explanation

Block diagram of AM transmitter and receiver with explanation AM Transmitter : Transmitters that transmit AM signals are known as AM transmitters. These transmitters are used in medium wave (MW) and short wave (SW) frequency bands for AM broadcast. The MW band has frequencies between 550 KHz and 1650 KHz, and the SW band has frequencies ranging from 3 MHz to 30 MHz. The two types of AM transmitters that are used based on their transmitting powers are: ·          High Level ·          Low Level High level transmitters use high level modulation, and low level transmitters use low level modulation. The choice between the two modulation schemes depends on the transmitting power of the AM transmitter. In broadcast transmitters, where the transmitting power may be of the order of kilowatts, high level modulation is employed. In low power transmitters, where only a few watts of transmitting power are required , low...

Using the TLP250 Isolated MOSFET Driver Explanation and Example Circuits

I’ve already shown how to drive an N-channel MOSFET (or even an IGBT) in both high-side and low-side configurations in a multitude of ways. I’ve also explained the principles of driving the MOSFETs in these configurations. The dedicated drivers I’ve shown so far are the TC427 and IR2110. Some people have requested me to write up on MOSFET drive using the very popular TLP250. And I’ll explain that here. The TLP250, like any driver, has an input stage, an output stage and a power supply connection. What’s special about the TLP250 is that the TLP250 is an optically isolated driver, meaning that the input and output are “optically isolated”. The isolation is optical – the input stage is an LED and the receiving output stage is light sensitive (think “photodetector”). Before delving any further, let’s look at the pin configuration and the truth table. Fig. 1 - TLP250 Pin Configuration Fig. 2 - TLP250 Truth Table Fig. 1 clearly shows the input LED side and the receiving photodetector as well...
