Description

The MAX881R low-noise, inverting power supply is designed for biasing GaAsFET power amplifiers in portable wireless applications. This device is a chargepump inverter followed by a negative linear regulator. The input voltage range is 2.5V to 5.5V. The output is preset at -2.0V or can be set, using two resistors, to any voltage from -0.5V to (-VIN + 0.6V). It can deliver up to 4mA. The internal linear regulator also filters the output to 1mVP-P ripple and noise.

Other features include a power-OK (active-low POK) output that signals when the negative voltage is within 7.5% of its set point. It protects the GaAsFET by not allowing power to be applied to the GaAsFET's drain until it is properly biased. The signal can be routed either to a microcontroller or directly to a switch at the GaAsFET drain. The MAX881R is available in a 10-pin µMAX® package.
