MAX8556ETE+T Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MAX8556ETE+T is a low-dropout (LDO) linear voltage regulator designed by Analog Devices (Maxim Integrated) for high-current applications. It operates from an input voltage range of 1.425V to 3.6V and can deliver a guaranteed 4A of continuous output current.

 

Key electrical specifications include a typical dropout voltage of 100mV at a 4A load, an adjustable output voltage from 0.5V to VIN - 0.2V, and ±1% output accuracy over load, line, and temperature variations. The device maintains a low 800μA typical supply current, independent of load and dropout voltage. It also features built-in soft-start, short-circuit protection with foldback current limit, and thermal-overload protection.

 

The MAX8556ETE+T is available in a 16-pin TQFN 5mm x 5mm package with an exposed paddle, suitable for surface mounting. The operating temperature range is -40°C to 85°C. The MAX8556 variant includes a Power-OK (POK) output that indicates when the regulator output is within ±10% of its nominal voltage, while the MAX8557 variant offers a power-on reset output.

 

This regulator is well-suited for applications such as servers, storage devices, networking equipment, base stations, optical modules, and point-of-load supplies.
