General Description
Benefits and Features
The MAX17595/MAX17596/MAX17597 is a family of peak-
current-mode controllers which contain all the circuitry
required for the design of wide input-voltage flyback
and boost regulators. The MAX17595 offers optimized
input rising and falling thresholds for universal input
AC-DC converters and telecom DC-DC (36V–72V input
range) power supplies. The MAX17596 offers input rising
and falling thresholds suitable for low-voltage DC-DC
applications (4.5V–36V input range). The MAX17597
offers all circuitry needed to implement a boost converter
controller. All three controllers contain a built-in gate
driver for external n-channel MOSFETs.
S Peak Current Mode Offline (Universal Input AC)
and Telecom (36V–72V) Flyback Controller
(MAX17595)
S Peak-Current-Mode DC-DC Flyback Controller
(4.5V–36V Input Range) (MAX17596)
S Peak-Current-Mode Nonsynchronous Boost PWM
Controller (4.5V–36V Input Range) (MAX17597)
S Current Mode Control Provides Excellent
Transient Response
S Low 20µA Startup Supply Current
S 100kHz to 1MHz Programmable Switching
The MAX17595/MAX17596/MAX17597 house an inter-
nal error amplifier with 1% accurate reference, useful
in implementations without the need for an external
reference. The switching frequency is programmable
from 100kHz to 1MHz with an accuracy of 8% using an
external resistor, allowing optimization of magnetic and
filter components, resulting in compact and cost-effective
power conversion solutions. For EMI sensitive applica-
tions, the MAX17595/MAX17596/MAX17597 family incor-
porates a programmable-frequency dithering scheme,
enabling low-EMI spread-spectrum operation.

S Programmable Frequency Dithering for Low-EMI
Spread-Spectrum Operation
S Switching Frequency Synchronization
S Adjustable Current Limit with External Current-
Sense Resistor
S Fast Cycle-By-Cycle Peak Current Limiting
S Hiccup-Mode Short-Circuit Protection
S Overtemperature Protection
An EN/UVLO input allows the user to start the
power supply precisely at the desired input voltage,
while also functioning as an on/off pin. The OVI pin
enables implementation of an input overvoltage protection
scheme, ensuring that the converter shuts down when
the DC input voltage exceeds a set maximum value. The
SS pin allows programmable soft-start time for the power
converter, and helps limit inrush current during startup.
The MAX17595/MAX17596/MAX17597 family also allows
the designer to choose between voltage soft-start and
current soft-start modes, useful in optoisolated designs.
A programmable slope compensation scheme is pro-
vided to enhance the stability of the peak-current-mode
control scheme.

Note 3: The MAX17595 is intended for use in universal input power supplies. The internal clamp circuit at V is used to prevent
IN
the bootstrap capacitor from changing to a voltage beyond the absolute maximum rating of the device when EN is low
(shutdown mode). Externally limit the maximum current to V (hence to clamp) to 2mA (max) when EN is low.

Detailed Description
The MAX17595 has different rising and falling under-
The MAX17595 offers a bootstrap UVLO wakeup level
of 20V with a wide hysteresis of 15V minimum, and is
optimized for implementing isolated and non-isolated
universal (85V to 265V AC) offline single-switch flyback
converter or telecom (36V to 72V) power supplies. The
MAX17596/MAX17597 offer a UVLO wakeup level of
4.4V and are well-suited for low-voltage DC-DC flyback/
boost power supplies. An internal 1% reference (1.21V)
can be used to regulate the output down to 1.21V in
nonisolated flyback and boost applications. Additional
semi-regulated outputs, if needed, can be generated
by using additional secondary windings on the flyback
converter transformer.

the thresholds of the MAX17596/MAX17597. The thresh-
olds for the MAX17595 are optimized for implementing
power supply startup schemes, typically used for offline
AC-DC power supplies. The MAX17595 is well-suited for
operation from rectified DC bus in AC-DC power-supply
applications, which are typical of front-end industrial
power-supply applications. As such, the MAX17595 has no
limitationonmaximuminputvoltage,aslongastheexternal
components are rated suitably and the maximum
operating voltages of the MAX17595 are respected.
The MAX17595 can be successfully used in universal
input (85V to 265V AC) rectified bus applications, in recti-
fied 3-phase DC bus applications, and in telecom (36V to
72V DC) applications.
The MAX17595/MAX17596/MAX17597 family utilizes
peak-current-mode control and external compensation
for optimizing closed-loop performance. The devices
include cycle-by-cycle peak current limit, and eight
consecutive occurrences of current-limit-event trig-
ger hiccup mode, which protects external com-
ponents by halting switching for a period of 32,768
cycles. The devices also include voltage soft-start
for nonisolated designs, and current soft-start for
isolated designs to allow monotonic and smooth rise of the
outpu voltage during startup. The voltage and current
soft-start modes can be selected using the SLOPE pin.
See Figure 1 for more information.
The MAX17596/MAX17597 are intended to implement
flyback (isolated and nonisolated) and boost convert-
ers. The V pin of the MAX17596/MAX17597 has a

converters with a 4.5V to 36V supply voltage range can
be implemented with the MAX17596/MAX17597.

Frequency Dithering for

The switching frequency of the converter can be
dithered in a range of Q10% by connecting a capaci-

DITHER to RT, as shown in the Typical Operating Circuits.
Spread-spectrum modulation technique spreads the
energy of switching frequency and its harmonics over a
wider band while reducing their peaks, helping to meet
stringent EMI goals.
Maximum Duty Cycle
The MAX17595/MAX17596 operate at a maximum duty
cycle of 49%. The MAX17597 offers a maximum duty
cycle of 94% to implement flyback and boost converters
involving large input-to-output voltage ratios in DC-DC
applications. Slope compensation is necessary for stable
operation of peak-current-mode controlled converters
such as the MAX17595/MAX17596/MAX17597 at duty
cycles greater than 50%, in addition to the loop compen-
sation required for small signal stability. The MAX17595/
MAX17596/MAX17597 implement a SLOPE pin for this
purpose. See the Slope Compensation section for more
details.

The devices’ EN/UVLO pin serves as an enable/disable
input, as well as an accurate programmable input UVLO
pin. The devices do not commence startup operation
unless the EN/UVLO pin voltage exceeds 1.21V (typ).
The devices turn off if the EN/UVLO pin voltage falls
below 1.15V (typ). A resistor-divider from the input DC
bus to ground can be used to divide down and apply a

A capacitor connected to the SS pin programs the soft-

current during startup. The devices allow the end user
to select between voltage soft-start, usually preferred in
nonisolated applications, and current soft-start, which is
useful in isolated applications to get a monotonic and
smooth rise in output voltage. See the Input Voltage

duty cycles greater than 50%. In practice, the MAX17595/
MAX17596 require a minimum amount of slope compen-

simply by leaving the SLOPE pin unconnected. It is rec-

boost converter needs slope compensation to avoid
subharmonic instability that occurs naturally over all
specified load and line conditions in peak-current-mode
controlled converters operating at duty cycles greater
than 50%. A minimum amount of slope signal is added to
the sensed current signal even for converters operating
below 50% duty to provide stable, jitter-free operation.
The SLOPE pin allows the user to program the necessary
slope compensation by setting the value of the resistor
Flyback/Boost Converter
The flyback/boost converter requires proper loop
compensation to be applied to the error-amplifier output
to achieve stable operation. The goal of the compensator
design is to achieve desired closed-loop bandwidth,
and sufficient phase margin at the crossover frequency
of the open-loop gain-transfer function of the converter.
The error amplifier provided in the devices is a transcon-
ductance amplifier. The compensation network used
to apply the necessary loop compensation is shown in
Figure 8.
The flyback/boost converter can be used to implement
the following converters and operating modes:

Primary Snubber Selection
Ideally, the external MOSFET experiences a drain-source
voltage stress equal to the sum of the input voltage and
reflected voltage across the primary winding during the
off period of the MOSFET. In practice, parasitic inductors
and capacitors in the circuit, such as leakage inductance
of the flyback transformer, cause voltage overshoot and
ringing, in addition to the ideally expected voltage stress.
Snubber circuits are used to limit the voltage overshoots
to safe levels within the voltage rating of the external
MOSFET. The snubber capacitor can be calculated

A) Capacitor selection based on switching ripple
Output Capacitor Selection
X7R ceramic output capacitors are preferred in industrial
applications due to their stability over temperature. The
output capacitor is usually sized to support a step load
of 50% of the maximum output current in the application,
so that the output-voltage deviation is contained to 3% of
the output-voltage change. The output capacitance can
be calculated as follows:
(MAX17596/MAX17597)
For DC-DC applications, X7R ceramic capacitors
are recommended due to their stability over the
operating temperature range. The ESR and ESL of a
ceramic capacitor are relatively low, so the ripple
voltage is dominated by the capacitive component.
For the flyback converter, the input capacitor sup-
plies the current when the main switch is on. Use the

In a CCM boost converter, the inductor current does

Slope Compensation
In theory, the DCM boost converter does not require
slope compensation for stable operation. In practice, the
converter needs a minimum amount of slope for good
noise immunity at very light loads. The minimum slope is
set for the MAX17596/MAX17597 by leaving the SLOPE
pin unconnected.
Inductor Selection
The design procedure starts with calculating the boost
converter’s input inductor at nominal input voltage for
a ripple in the inductor current equal to 30% of the

Output Diode Selection
The voltage rating of the output diode for the boost
converter ideally equals the output voltage of the
boost converter. In practice, parasitic inductances and
capacitances in the circuit interact to produce voltage
overshoot during the turn-off transition of the diode that
occurs when the main switch Q1 turns on. The diode

MOSFET RMS Current Calculation
The voltage stress on the MOSFET ideally equals the
sum of the output voltage and the forward drop of the
output diode. In practice, voltage overshoot and ringing
occur due to action of circuit parasitic elements during
the turn-off transition. The MOSFET voltage rating should
be selected with the necessary margin to accommodate
The input ceramic capacitor value required can be
calculated based on the ripple allowed on the input DC
bus. The input capacitor should be sized based on the RMS
value of the AC current handled by it. The calculations are:

except for a connection at the least noisy section of the
power ground plane, typically the return of the input filter
capacitor. The negative terminal of the filter capacitor, the
ground return of the power switch and current sensing
resistor, must be close together. PCB layout also affects
the thermal performance of the design. A number of
thermal vias that connect to a large ground plane should
be provided under the exposed pad of the part for
efficient heat dissipation. For a sample layout that
ensures first-pass success, refer to the MAX17595 evalu-
ation kit layout available at www.maxim-ic.com. For
universal AC input designs, follow all applicable safety
regulations. Offline power supplies can require UL, VDE,
and other similar agency approvals.
Layout, Grounding and Bypassing
All connections carrying pulsed currents must be very
short and as wide as possible. The inductance of these
connections must be kept to an absolute minimum due to
the high di/dt of the currents in high-frequency-switching
power converters. This implies that the loop areas for
forward and return pulsed currents in various parts of the
circuit should be minimized. Additionally, small current
loop areas reduce radiated EMI. Similarly, the heatsink
of the MOSFET presents a dV/dt source; therefore,
the surface area of the MOSFET heatsink should be
minimized as much as possible.
Ground planes must be kept as intact as possible. The
ground plane for the power section of the converter
should be kept separate from the analog ground plane,
