DC-DC Converter

Himalaya Synchronous Buck Converter Family

Analog Devices / Maxim Integrated

This presentation will an overview of Maxim’s high voltage synchronous step-down converters, the Himalaya family. It will discuss the internal compensation which reduces the external parts count, and the multi-mode flexibility that provides high efficiency at various load levels. The tutorial reviews the Maxim EE-Sim system power tool, Himalaya evaluation kits, and the basic specifications of devices in the Himalaya family.
