shut off, go high impedance, and restart after the die
portion of the IC cools by 15°C. Both thermal faults are
independent. For example, if the VTT output is over-
loaded to the point that it triggers its thermal fault, the
buck regulator continues to function.

trade-off lies in choosing a good switching frequency
and inductor operating point, and the following four fac-

offs: size vs. efficiency and transient response vs. out-
put ripple. Low inductor values provide better
transient response and smaller physical size but also
result in lower efficiency and higher output ripple due
to increased ripple currents. The minimum practical
inductor value is one that causes the circuit to operate
at the edge of critical conduction (where the inductor
current just touches zero with every cycle at maximum
load). Inductor values lower than this grant no further
size-reduction benefit. The optimum operating point is
usually found between 20% and 50% ripple current.
When pulse skipping (SKIP = low at light loads), the
inductor value also determines the load-current value
at which PFM/PWM switchover occurs.

The MAX8550/MAX8551s’ Dual-Mode operation allows
the selection of common voltages without requiring
external components (Figure 5). Connect FB to GND for
a fixed 2.5V output, to AV
connect FB directly to OUT for a fixed 0.7V output.
The buck-regulator output voltage can be adjusted from
0.7V to 5.5V using a resistive voltage-divider (Figure 6).
The MAX8550/MAX8551 regulate FB to a fixed refer-
ence voltage (0.7V). The adjusted output voltage is:

The termination power-supply output (VTT) can be set by
two different methods. First, the VTT output can be con-
nected directly to the VTTS input to force VTT to regulate
