MAX17000ETG+

Overview

The MAX17000ETG+ is a specialized power management IC designed for DDR2 and DDR3 memory applications. It integrates a PWM controller within the Quick-PWM series, operating on a 4.5V to 5.5V supply with 2mA supply current. The device supports output currents of 2A and 4A, with a maximum input voltage of 26V. It functions as a complete power solution for memory regulators, housed in a 24-TQFN (4x4) package with exposed pad.

Feature Summary

• Integrates PWM control for DDR2/DDR3 memory power regulation
• Supports high output currents up to 4A
• Operates within standard 4.5V to 5.5V supply range

Applications

• DDR2 memory regulator systems
• DDR3 memory power management
• General memory subsystem voltage regulation

Procurement Notes

Verify component status carefully as this part is designated Not For New Designs or discontinued by Analog Devices/Maxim Integrated. Confirm availability through authorized distributors only, noting potential supply restrictions. Ensure the specific suffix matches required packaging and RoHS compliance before ordering, as lead times may be extended due to end-of-life status.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing legacy DDR2 or DDR3 memory interfaces requiring integrated PWM control. Consider the 24-TQFN package constraints and thermal requirements for the exposed pad. Evaluate if newer generations from the manufacturer offer pin-compatible upgrades, as this specific model is no longer recommended for new designs.

Part Context

Part of the Quick-PWM series, the MAX17000ETG+ serves as a dedicated PMIC for memory applications. It consolidates control functions into a compact 24-pin QFN footprint, simplifying board layout for high-speed memory modules. The device addresses specific voltage regulation needs for DDR standards prevalent in earlier computing architectures.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not explicitly listed in the provided documentation. Users should consult official Analog Devices/Maxim Integrated cross-reference tools for compatible replacements, as this part is marked Not For New Designs.
