trace lengths to reduce stray capacitance, trace resis-
tance, and radiated noise. The trace between the out-
put voltage-divider (MAX5025/MAX5026) and the FB
pin must be kept short, as well as the trace between
GND and PGND.
Inductor Layout
The shielded drum type inductors have a small air gap
around the top and bottom periphery. The incident fring-
ing magnetic field from this air gap to the copper plane
on the PC board tends to reduce efficiency. This is a
result of the induced eddy currents on the copper plane.
To minimize this effect, avoid laying out any copper
planes under the mounting area of these inductors.
30V Boost Application Circuit
Figures 2 and 3 show the MAX5025/MAX5026 operat-
ing in a 30V boost application. Figure 3 has an RC filter
to reduce noise at the output. These circuits provide
output currents greater than 4mA with an input voltage
of 5V or greater. They are designed by following the
Design Procedure
section. Operating characteristics of
these circuits are shown in the
Typical Operating
Characteristics
section.
