MAX17106 Step-Up Regulatorand High-Voltage Step-Up withTemperature Compensation

The MAX17106 is optimized for thin-film transistor (TFT) liquid-crystal display (LCD) applications. The device includes a high-performance 20V step-up regulator with integrated switch for the source-driver supply, a 40V step-up regulator with temperature compensation for the TFT gate-on supply (VON), a 300mA low-dropout 2.5V internallinearregulator for thelogicsupply, three high-speed operational amplifiers, a digitallyadjustable VCOM calibration device with nonvolatile memory, two electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) memory blocks (2Kb extended display identification data (EDID) memory and 16Kb timing controller memory) with separate I²C interfaces, and a high-voltage level-shifting scandriver.

The main step-upDC-DC step-up converter provides the regulated supply voltage for the panel source driver ICs. The converter is a 1.2MHz current-mode regulator with an integrated 20V n-channel powerMOSFET. The high switching frequency allows the use of ultra-small inductors and ceramic capacitors. The current-mode control architecture provides fast transient response to pulsed loads. The step-up regulator features digital softstart and cycle-by-cycle current limit.

The VON step-up regulator is asimple minimum off-time, pulse-skipping architecture with a variable peak-current threshold. The output voltage is adjustedaccording to the voltage on the NTC pins (temperature reading) and two voltage levels set by current sources on the VHI and VLO pins. See the VON Positive Gate Driver Step-Up Regulator section for more information.

The MAX17106 is available in a 7mm x 7mm, 56-pin, lead-free TQFN package with exposed pad and operates over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
