The MAX5020 integrate all the building blocks necessary for implementing DC-DC fixed-frequency power supplies. Either primary- or secondary-side regulation may be used to implement isolated or nonisolated power supplies. These devices are current-mode controllers with an integrated high-voltage startup circuit suitable for telecom/industrial voltage range power supplies. The MAX5020 limits the operating duty cycle to less than 50% and can be used in single-ended forward converters. A high-voltage startup circuit allows these devices to draw power directly from the 18V to 110V input supply during startup. The switching frequency is internally trimmed to 275kHz ±10%, thus reducing magnetics and filter component costs.

The MAX5020 are available in 8-pin SO packages.
