MAX840, MAX843, MAX844,pdf datasheet (GaAsFET偏置电源)

The MAX840/MAX843/MAX844 low-noise, inverting charge-pump power supplies are ideal for biasing GaAsFETs in cellular telephone transmitter amplifiers. They operate with inputs down to 2.5V.

The MAX840 offers both a -2V preset output and a -0.5V to -9.4V adjustable output. The MAX843/MAX844 use an external positive control voltage to set the negative output voltage. Input voltage range for all the devices is 2.5V to 10V, and output current is 4mA with V_IN > 2.7V. These circuits can operate with small capacitors, as low as 0.22µF.

An internal linear regulator reduces the MAX840's output voltage ripple to 1mVp-p. With a well-filtered control voltage (V_CTRL), the MAX843/MAX844 also achieve less than 1mVp-p typical output ripple. Supply current is 750µA, and reduces to less than 1µA in shutdown (MAX840/MAX843). The MAX844's unregulated output is active in shutdown, with the charge pump switching at 20kHz. It provides a low-power LCD supply.
