MAX77756  
24V Input, 500mA Buck Regulator  
with Dual-Input Power MUX  
General Description  
Benefits and Features  
The MAX77756 is a synchronous 500mA step-down  
DC-DC converter with integrated dual-input power multi-  
plexer (MUX). The converter operates on an input supply  
as low as 3.0V and as high as 24V. Default output volt-  
age is factory-programmed to either 1.8V, 3.3V, or 5.0V.  
Output voltage is further adjustable through external  
Wide Input Power Supply

)
SUP  
• Hardware or Software Enable  
The dual-input power MUX selects the higher voltage  
from two different input sources to power the step-down  
converter. Control circuitry ensures that only one channel  
of the MUX is on at a time to prevent cross-conduction  
between input sources. For single-input applications, the  
MUX can be bypassed and the step-down converter can  
be powered directly from the SUP pin.  
Dual-Input Power MUX Replaces Common-Cathode  
Diode Arrays  
• Automatic Ideal-Diode ORing Voltage Selector  
250mΩ MOSFETs Minimize Power Consumption,  
BOM, and Solution Size  
Low I Enables Always-On Rails

The MAX77756 is available in a small 2.33mm x 1.42mm  
(0.7mm max height), 15-bump wafer-level package  
(WLP). For a similar buck converter without a power  
MUX, refer to the MAX77596.

Note 1: LX has internal clamp diodes to PGND and SUP. Applications that forward bias these diodes should not exceed the IC’s package  
power dissipation limits.  
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: See the BIAS Regulator section.  
Note 2: Forced PWM (FPWM) is an internal test mode.  
Note 3: Output voltage regulation is always maintained. The device skips pulses when the duty cycle needed to regulate the output  
violates the minimum on-time.  
Note 4: Off channel must be half of this value higher than the on channel for switch to happen.  
Note 5: Design guidance only. Not production tested.

24V Input, 500mA Buck Regulator  
with Dual-Input Power MUX  
Buck Regulator Control Scheme  
Detailed Description  
The step-down converter uses a PWM peak current-mode  
control scheme with a load-line architecture. Peak cur-  
rent-mode control provides precise control of the inductor  
current on a cycle-by-cycle basis and inherent compensa-  
tion for input voltage variation.  
The MAX77756 is a small 500mA step-down DC-DC con-  
verter with integrated dual-input power multiplexer (MUX).  
The step-down (buck) converter uses synchronous rec-  
tification and internal current-mode compensation. The  
buck operates on a supply voltage from 3V to 24V.  
2
Output voltage is configurable through I C (1.5V to 7.5V  
in 50mV steps) or external feedback resistors (1V to 99%  
On-times (MOSFET Q1 on) are started by a fixed-  
frequency clock and terminated by a PWM comparator.  
See Figure 1. When an on-time ends (starting an off-time)  
current conducts through the low-side MOSFET (Q2 on).  
Shoot-through current from SUP to PGND is avoided by  
introducing a brief period of dead time between switching  
events when neither MOSFET is on. Inductor current con-  
ducts through Q2's intrinsic body diode during dead time.  
of V  
). Factory-default voltage options of 1.8V, 3.3V,  
SUP  
and 5.0V are available (see the Ordering Information  
table). Switching frequency in continuous conduction is  
1MHz. The buck utilizes an ultra-low quiescent current  
mode (1.5μA typ for 3.3V  
) that maintains a very high  
OUT  
efficiency at light loads.  
The integrated dual-input power MUX automatically  
selects the higher of two different voltage sources to  
power the buck converter. The MUX reduces power dissi-  
pation versus common-cathode Schottky arrays by using  
switches (MOSFETs) instead of diodes. The output of the  
power MUX is the input to the buck (SUP). Single power  
source applications should bypass the power MUX and  
power SUP directly.  
The PWM comparator regulates V  
by controlling  
OUT  
duty cycle. The negative input of the PWM compara-  
tor is a voltage proportional to the actual output voltage  
error. The positive input is the sum of the current-sense  
signal through MOSFET Q1 and a slope-compensation  
ramp. The PWM comparator ends an on-time when the  
error voltage becomes less than the slope-compensated  
current-sense signal. On-times begin again due to a fixed-  
frequency clock pulse. The controller's compensation  
components and current-sense circuits are integrated.  
This reduces the risk of routing sensitive control signals  
on the PCB.  
Dual-Input Power MUX  
The device integrates a 24V power multiplexer (MUX) with  
two inputs (IN1 and IN2) and one output (SUP). SUP is  
the supply input for the buck. The input channels consist  
of P-type MOSFETs. IN1 and IN2 are the individual FET  
drains and SUP is the common FET source. An intrinsic  
body-diode is always present in both FETs.  
A load-line architecture is present in the controller design.  
The output voltage is positioned slightly above nominal  
regulation at no load and slightly below nominal regulation  
at full load. As the output load changes, a small but con-  
trolled amount of load regulation (load line) error occurs  
on the output voltage. This voltage positioning architec-  
ture allows the output voltage to respond to sudden load  
transients in a critically damped manner, and effectively  
reduces the amount of output capacitance needed when  
compared to classical integrating controllers. See the  
Typical Operating Characteristics section for information  
about the converter's typical voltage regulation behavior  
versus load.  
The MUX connects the higher of V  
or V  
to SUP to  
IN1  
IN2  
power the buck. Only the higher voltage input channel is  
on. The lower voltage input channel is off. The MUX logic  
is only active while the buck converter is enabled. Both  
channels are off when the buck is disabled.  
The selection logic has switchover hysteresis to avoid  
chattering. The off channel must be 200mV higher than  
the on channel to cause a switchover. Switchover is auto-  
matic and can happen any time while the buck is enabled.  
Equal priority is given to each input. Neither channel is  
prioritized over the other.  
When powering IN1 or IN2, do not connect anything to  
SUP besides a decoupling capacitor. To use the buck  
without the power MUX, connect IN1 and IN2 to PGND  
and power SUP directly.

When using I C to control the MAX77756, the EN pin  
interacts with the enable bit (EN_BIT). The logical rela-  
tionship between the EN pin and EN_BIT is by default an  
OR. The EN_CTRL bit can be used to switch this relation-  
ship to a logical AND. See Table 1.

from sourcing back to the input (SUP) and enables high  
efficiency by reducing the total number of switching cycles  
required to regulate the output voltage.  
The reset state (default state) of EN_BIT and EN_CTRL  
is 0. This means that the default relationship between EN  
pin and EN_BIT is a logical OR.  
If the output voltage is within regulation and the load is  
very light then the converter automatically transitions to  
standby mode. In this mode, the LX node is high imped-  
ance and the converter's internal circuit blocks are deac-

Peak Inductor Current Limit (ILIM)  
The MAX77756 features a revision 3.0 I C-compatible,  
2-wire serial interface consisting of a bidirectional serial  
data line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). The  
MAX77756 acts as a slave-only devices where it relies  
on the master to generate a clock signal. SCL clock  
The buck converter's high-side MOSFET peak cur-  
rent limit (I ) is register or pin programmable.

programmability to ensure

that the converter never exceeds the saturation current

2
rates from 0Hz to 3.4MHz are supported. I C is an open-  
drain bus, and therefore, SDA and SCL require pullups.  
Optional resistors (24Ω) in series with SDA and SCL  
protect the device inputs from high-voltage spikes on the  
bus lines. Series resistors also minimize crosstalk and  
undershoot on bus signals. For additional information  
Connect ILIM to PGND to set I  
to 700mA. While

I C Data Transfer  
One data bit is transferred during each SCL clock cycle.  
The data on SDA must remain stable during the high  
period of the SCL clock pulse. Changes in SDA while SCL  
is high are control signals. See the I2C Start and Stop  
Conditions section. Each transmit sequence is framed by  
a START (S) condition and a STOP (P) condition. Each  
data packet is nine bits long: eight bits of data followed by  
the acknowledge bit. Data is transferred with the MSB first.

I C System Configuration  
2
The I C bus is a multimaster bus. The maximum number  
of devices that can attach to the bus is only limited by bus  
capacitance.  
2
A device on the I C bus that sends data to the bus in  
called a transmitter. A device that receives data from the  
bus is called a receiver. The device that initiates a data  
transfer and generates the SCL clock signals to control  
the data transfer is a master. Any device that is being  
addressed by the master is considered a slave. The  
2
I C Start and Stop Conditions  
When the serial interface is inactive, SDA and SCL idle  
high. A master device initiates communication by issuing  
a START condition. A START condition is a high-to-low  
transition on SDA with SCL high. A STOP condition is  
a low-to-high transition on SDA, while SCL is high. See  
Figure 3.

on the I C bus with transmit and receive capabilities.

I C Interface Power  
A START condition from the master signals the beginning  
of a transmission to the MAX77756. The master termi-  
nates transmission by issuing a not acknowledge (nA)  
followed by a STOP condition. See the I2C Acknowledge  
Bit section for information on not acknowledge. The STOP

condition frees the bus. To issue a series of commands to  
the slave, the master can issue repeated start (Sr) com-  
mands instead of a STOP command to maintain control of  
the bus. In general, a repeated start command is function-  
ally equivalent to a regular start command.  
Monitoring the acknowledge bits allows for detection  
of unsuccessful data transfers. An unsuccessful data  
transfer occurs if a receiving device is busy or if a system  
fault has occurred. In the event of an unsuccessful data  
transfer, the bus master should reattempt communication  
at a later time.  
When a STOP condition or incorrect address is detected,  
the IC disconnects SCL from the serial interface until  
the next START condition, minimizing digital noise and  
feedthrough.  
The MAX77756 issues an ACK for all register addresses  
in the possible address space even if the particular  
register does not exist.

acknowledge bit is the last bit of each nine bit data packet.  
To generate an acknowledge (A), the receiving device  
must pull SDA low before the rising edge of the acknowl-  
edge-related clock pulse (ninth pulse) and keep it low  
during the high period of the clock pulse. See Figure 4.  
To generate a not acknowledge (nA), the receiving device  
allows SDA to be pulled high before the rising edge of the  
acknowledge-related clock pulse and leaves it high during  
the high period of the clock pulse.

the slave by issuing a START condition followed by the  
slave address. See Figure 5.

I C Clock Stretching  
2
In general, the clock signal generation for the I C bus is  
the responsibility of the master device. The I C specifica-  
2
tion allows slow slave devices to alter the clock signal by  
holding down the clock line. The process in which a slave  
device holds down the clock line is typically called clock  
stretching. The IC does not use any form of clock stretch-  
ing to hold down the clock line.

The I C slave must use a different set of input filters  
I C Communication Speed  
on its SDA and SCL lines to accommodate for the  
faster bus.  
The MAX77756 is compatible with all 4 communication  
speed ranges as defined by the Revision 3 I C specification:  
2
● The communication protocols need to utilize the high-  
● 0Hz to 100kHz (standard mode)  
● 0Hz to 400kHz (fast mode)  
● 0Hz to 1MHz (fast mode)  
speed master code.  
At power-up and after each stop condition, the IC input  
filters are set for standard mode, fast mode, or fast mode  
plus (i.e., 0Hz to 1MHz). To switch the input filters for high-  
speed mode, use the high-speed master code protocols  
● 0Hz to 3.4MHz (high-speed mode)  
Operating in standard mode, fast mode, and fast mode  
plus does not require any special protocols. The main  
consideration when changing the bus speed through this  
range is the combination of the bus capacitance and pul-  
lup resistors. Higher time constants created by the bus  
capacitance and pullup resistance (C x R) slow the bus  
operation. Therefore, when increasing bus speeds, the  
pullup resistance must be decreased to maintain a rea-  
sonable time constant. Refer to the Pullup Resistor Sizing  
2
that are described in the I C Communication Protocols  
section.

I C Communication Protocols  
The IC supports both writing and reading from its registers.  
Writing to a Single Register  
2
Figure 6 shows the protocol for the I C master device to  
write one byte of data to the MAX77756. This protocol is  
the same as the SMBus specification’s write byte proto-  
col. The write byte protocol is as follows:  
2
section of the I C Revision 3.0 specification (UM10204)  
for detailed guidance on the pullup resistor selection. In  
general for bus capacitances of 200pF, a 100kHz bus  
needs 5.6kΩ pullup resistors, a 400kHz bus needs about  
a 1.5kΩ pullup resistors, and a 1MHz bus needs 680Ω  
pullup resistors. Note that when the open-drain bus is low,  
the pullup resistor is dissipating power, lower value pullup  
resistors dissipate more power.  
1) The master sends a start command (S).  
2) The master sends the 7-bit slave address followed by  
a write bit (R/W = 0).  
3) The addressed slave asserts an acknowledge (A) by  
pulling SDA low.  
Operating in high-speed mode requires some special  
considerations. The major considerations with respect to  
the IC:  
4) The master sends an 8-bit register pointer.  
5) The slave acknowledges the register pointer.  
6) The master sends a data byte.

8) The slave acknowledges or does not acknowledge the  
data byte. The next rising edge on SDA loads the data  
byte into its target register and the data becomes active.  
3) The addressed slave asserts an acknowledge (A) by  
pulling SDA low.  
4) The master sends an 8-bit register pointer.  
5) The slave acknowledges the register pointer.  
6) The master sends a data byte.  
9) The master sends a stop condition (P) or a repeated  
start condition (Sr). Issuing a P ensures that the bus in-  
put filters are set for 1MHz or slower operation. Issuing  
an Sr leaves the bus input filters in their current state.  
7) The slave acknowledges the data byte. The next ris-  
ing edge on SDA loads the data byte into its target  
register and the data becomes active.  
Writing Multiple Bytes to Sequential Registers  
Figure 7 shows the protocol for writing to a sequential  
registers. This protocol is similar to the write byte proto-  
col above, except the master continues to write after it  
receives the first byte of data. When the master is done  
writing it issues a stop or repeated start.The writing to  
sequential registers protocol is as follows:  
8) Steps 6 to 7 are repeated as many times as the master  
requires.  
9) During the last acknowledge related clock pulse,  
the master can issue an acknowledge or a not  
acknowledge.  
1) The master sends a start command (S).  
10) The master sends a stop condition (P) or a repeated  
start condition (Sr). Issuing a P ensures that the bus in-  
put filters are set for 1MHz or slower operation. Issuing  
an Sr leaves the bus input filters in their current state.  
2) The master sends the 7-bit slave address followed by  
a write bit (R/W = 0).

Figure 8 shows the protocol for the I C master device to

the same as the SMBus specification’s read byte protocol.  
The read byte protocol is as follows:  
11) The master sends a stop condition (P) or a repeated

put filters are set for 1MHz or slower operation. Issuing  
an Sr leaves the bus input filters in their current state.

Note that when the the IC receives a stop, it does not

2) The master sends the 7-bit slave address followed by

Reading from Sequential Registers  
3) The addressed slave asserts an acknowledge (A) by

registers. This protocol is similar to the read byte protocol  
except the master issues an acknowledge to signal the  
slave that it wants more data: when the master has all  
the data it requires it issues a not acknowledge (nA) and  
a stop (P) to end the transmission.The continuous read  
from sequential registers protocol is as follows:  
4) The master sends an 8-bit register pointer.

ter must issue a not acknowledge (nA) to signal that it  
wishes to stop receiving data.  
The master can now increase its bus speed up to  
3.4MHz and issue any read/write operation.  
The master can continue to issue high-speed read/write  
operations until a stop (P) is issued. Use repeated start  
(Sr) to continue operations in high speed mode.  
12) The master sends a stop condition (P) or a repeated  
start condition (Sr). Issuing a stop (P) ensures that  
the bus input filters are set for 1MHz or slower opera-  
tion. Issuing an Sr leaves the bus input filters in their  
current state.

improve decoupling, but increase inrush current from

Limit IN1/IN2 inrush current to 4.1A. See the Absolute

For single input applications that do not utilize IN1 and  
IN2, choose C

that require no selector.

output ripple and load transient requirements. The output  
capacitance must be high enough to absorb the induc-  
tor energy while transitioning from full-load to no load  
conditions. When using high-capacitance, low-ESR  
capacitors, the filter capacitor’s ESR dominates the

Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectric are highly  
recommended due to their small size, low ESR, and small  
temperature coefficients. All ceramic capacitors derate  
with DC bias voltage (effective capacitance goes down as  
DC bias goes up). Generally, small case size capacitors  
derate heavily compared to larger case sizes (0603 case  
size performs better than 0402). Consider the effective  
capacitance value carefully by consulting the manufac-  
turer's data sheet.  
Limiting the Peak Inrush Current  
The peak inrush current from IN1 or IN2 to SUP must be  
limited to less than 4.1A. This can be achieved by reduc-  
ing the slew rate of the input voltage applied to IN1 or IN2,  
and/or reducing the value of the SUP capacitor. The peak  
inrush current through the input power MUX when voltage  
is applied to IN1 or IN2 is calculated with Equation 4.

Low IQ consumption (19μA typ for dual-input) enables  
the device to remain always-on. This extends battery  
life and functionality by enabling the PD port control-  
ler to monitor plug attachment while the gadget is in  
sleep/hibernate state.  
Powering USB Type-C Power Delivery  
Port Controllers  
The MAX77756 is ideal for battery-powered systems/  
gadgets that use USB type-C with power delivery (PD)  
to charge. These systems require a PD port controller to  
monitor device attachment to the USB port, determine  
roles of the attached device, and negotiate for PD volt-  
ages. See Figure 13. Applications that use the MAX77756  
to power the PD controller benefit in the following ways:  
3V–24V input voltage range allows the device to  
power the port controller over the entire PD voltage  
range.  
Hardware or software enable allows flexible control  
Dual-input power MUX allows the device to power  
from VBUS or BATT ensuring the load is always  
powered. This enables PD negotiation even if the gad-

24V Input, 500mA Buck Regulator  
with Dual-Input Power MUX  
Select a battery charger with automatic input-current  
limiting (AICL) or minimum input-voltage regulation. The  
MAX8971 switch-mode charger with AICL regulates a  
minimum input (USB) voltage by reducing the charge cur-  
rent into the cell. This preserves a stable USB source for  
the device while charging the battery with residual power  
not used by the load.  
Creating an Instant-On System  
The MAX77756 can be used to implement an instant-on  
battery charging system. See Figure 16.  
The battery charger (MAX8971 or similar) charges the  
cell from USB power.  
The dual-input power MUX selects the higher-voltage  
(USB) to power the buck.  
This system can be extended beyond a single Li+ cell in  
USB type-C power delivery applications.  
USB continues to power the buck even after the bat-  
tery is finished charging.

USB disconnects.
