Features and Benefits
The MAX77813 is a high-efficiency step-up/step-down
(buck-boost) converter targeted for single-cell Li+/Li-ion
battery powered applications. The device maintains a
regulated output voltage from 2.6V to 5.14V across an
input voltage range of 2.3V to 5.5V. The device supports
up to 2A of output current in boost mode and up to 3A in
buck mode.
●● VIN Range: 2.30V to 5.5V
●● VOUT Range: 2.60V to 5.14V
(I2C Programmable in 20mV Steps)
●● Up to 2A Output Current in Boost Mode
(VIN = 3.0V, VOUT = 3.4V, ILIM = High)
●● Up to 3A Output Current in Buck Mode (ILIM = High)

MAX77813
5.5V Input, 2A, High-Efficiency
Buck-Boost Converter
Detailed Description
The MAX77813 is a synchronous step-up/down (buckboost) DC-DC converter with integrated switches. The
buck-boost operates on a supply voltage between 2.3V
and 5.5V. Output voltage is configurable through I2C from
2.60V to 5.14V in 20mV steps. Factory-default startup
voltage options of 3.3V and 3.4V are available (see the
Ordering Information table). The ILIM pin sets the buckboost switch current capacity.
●● Strap ILIM high to set 4.5A (typ) switch current. This
configuration supports up to 2A out in boost mode
and up to 3A out in buck mode.
●● Strap ILIM low to set 1.8A (typ) switch current. This
configuration supports up to 650mA in boost mode
and up to 800mA in buck mode.
Buck-Boost Control Scheme
The buck-boost converter operates using a 2.5MHz fixedfrequency pulse-width modulated (PWM) control scheme
with current-mode compensation. The buck-boost utilizes
an H-bridge topology using a single inductor and output
capacitor.
The H-bridge topology has three switching phases. See
Figure 2 for details.
●● Φ1 Switch period (Phase 1: HS1 = ON, LS2 = ON)
stores energy in the inductor. Inductor current ramps
up at a rate proportional to the input voltage divided by
inductance: VIN / L.
●● Φ2 Switch period (Phase 2: HS1 = ON, HS2 = ON)
ramps inductor current up or down depending on the
differential voltage across the inductor: (VIN - VOUT) / L.
●● Φ3 Switch period (Phase 3: LS1 = ON, HS2 = ON)
ramps inductor current down at a rate proportional to
the output voltage divided by inductance: (-VOUT / L).
Boost operation (VIN < VOUT) utilizes phase 1 and phase
2 within a single clock period. See the representation of
inductor current waveform for boost mode operation in
Figure 2.
Buck operation (VIN > VOUT) utilizes phase 2 and phase
3 within a single clock period. See the representation of
inductor current waveform for buck mode operation in
Figure 2.

Buck-Boost Converter
Enable Control (EN)
Raise the EN pin voltage above VIH threshold to enable
the buck-boost output. Lower EN below VIL threshold to
disable. EN has an internal 800kΩ (typ) pulldown resistor
to GND. Clear the EN bit using the I2C interface to disable
the internal pulldown (making EN high-impedance). The
EN_PD bit reset value is 1 (pulldown enabled). Therefore,
the internal pulldown resistor is present whenever the
MAX77813 starts up.
After the initial buck-boost startup, clear the EN bit
through I2C to disable the buck-boost output. Table 1
details the interaction between the EN pin and the EN bit.
Provide a valid VIO and set the EN pin logic-high to
enable the I2C serial interface. Serial reads and writes to
the EN bit may happen only while VIO is valid and EN is
logic-high. Lowering EN logic-low disables the buck-boost
(regardless of EN) and causes all registers to reset to
default values.

Peak Inductor Current
Limit Selection (ILIM)
Select the buck-boost’s cycle-by-cycle inductor current
limit (ILIM_LX) with the ILIM pin. Connect ILIM to VVIO
to set ILIM_LX to 4.5A (typ). Connect ILIM to GND to set
ILIM_LX to 1.8A (typ).
The device automatically changes ILIM_LX during the
following events:
●● Soft-start (ILIM_LX is temporarily reduced.). See SoftStart for details.
●● Burst mode (ILIM_LX is temporarily increased.). See
Burst Mode (Enhanced Load Response) for details.
Always drive the ILIM pin logic-high or low. Do not leave
ILIM unconnected.
Soft-Start
The device implements a soft-start by reducing the peak
inductor current limit (ILIM_LX) for a fixed time. The softstart time begins immediately after the startup delay
(tON_DLY). See Table 2 for details.
ILIM_LX reduces (according to Table 2) for tSS after the
buck-boost enables through either the EN pin or EN bit.
Reducing the inductor current limit during startup controls
inrush current from the supply input (IIN) and prevents
droop caused by upstream source impedance.

Burst Mode (Enhanced Load Response)
The device implements a burst mode to service shortduration heavy load transients (burst loads). A summary
of burst mode operation follows:
●●
If a heavy load transient happens that requires peak
inductor current > ILIM_LX to maintain regulation,
then the buck-boost temporarily increases the peak
inductor current limit from ILIM_LX to ILIM_LX_HIGH.
(See Table 3.)
●●
If the heavy load causes peak inductor current >
ILIM_LX for longer than 800µs(typ), then burst mode
deactivates and peak inductor current limit returns to
ILIM_LX.

Power-OK (POK) Output
The device features an open-drain POK output to monitor
the output voltage. POK requires an external pullup resistor (typically 10kΩ to 100kΩ).
POK is active-high by default. Use the POK_POL bit to
change the POK polarity to active-low. See the Register
Map for details.
While POK_POL = 1 (active-high, default state), POK
goes high (high-impedance) after the buck-boost output
increases above 80% of the target regulation voltage.
POK goes low when the output drops below 75% of the
target or when the buck-boost is disabled.
Output Voltage Selection and
Slew Rate Control
Write the VOUT[6:0] bitfield through I2C to configure the
target output voltage (VOUT) between 2.60V and 5.14V
in 20mV steps. The default value of VOUT[6:0] is factoryprogrammable. See the Ordering Information for the
default VOUT associated with each orderable part number. Overwriting the default value through I2C sets a new
target VOUT until registers reset.
Changing the VOUT[6:0] bitfield while the buck-boost
output is enabled causes the device to respond in the
following way:
●●
VOUT ramps up at a rate set by RU_SR (20mV/μs or
40mV/μs) when the VOUT target is increased.
●●
VOUT ramps down at a rate set by RD_SR (5mV/μs
or 10mV/μs) when the VOUT target is decreased.
See the Register Map for details about the RU_SR and
RD_SR bits.
Output Overvoltage Protection (OVP)
The device has an internal output overvoltage protection
(OVP) circuit which monitors VOUT for overvoltage faults.
The buck-boost disables if the output exceeds the overvoltage threshold set by the OVP_TH[1:0] bitfield.
Disable OVP by programming OVP_TH[1:0] to 0b00
using I2C. The default OVP threshold is 0b11 (120% of
the target VOUT).
The OVP status bit continuously mirrors the status of the
OVP circuit. See the Register Map for details.
Thermal Shutdown
The device has an internal thermal protection circuit
which monitors die temperature. The buck-boost disables
if the die temperature exceeds TSHDN (165°C typ). The
buck-boost enables again after the die temperature cools
by approximately 20°C.
The TSHDN status bit continuously mirrors the status of
the thermal protection circuit. See the Register Map for
details.
I2C Serial Interface
The device features a revision 3.0 I2C-compatible, 2-wire
serial interface consisting of a bidirectional serial data line
(SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). The MAX77813 is a
slave-only device that that relies on an external bus master to generate SCL. SCL clock rates from 0Hz to 3.4MHz
are supported. I2C is an open-drain bus, and therefore,
SDA and SCL require pullups (500Ω or greater).
The device’s I2C communication controller implements
7-bit slave addressing. An I2C bus master initiates communication with the slave by issuing a START condition
followed by the slave address. The slave address of the
device is shown in Table 4.
The device uses 8-bit registers with 8-bit register addressing. They support standard communication protocols: (1)
Writing to a single register (2) Writing to multiple sequential registers with an automatically incrementing data
pointer (3) Reading from a single register (4) Reading
from multiple sequential registers with an automatically incrementing data pointer. For additional information on the I2C protocols, refer to the MAX77813 I2C
Implementer’s Guide and/or the I2C specification that is
freely available on the internet.

Applications Information
Output Capacitor Selection
Inductor Selection
Choose a 1μH inductor with a saturation current of 7A or
higher for ILIM = HIGH and a saturation current of 3.39A
or higher for ILIM = LOW.
Table 5 lists recommended inductors for the MAX77813.
Always choose the inductor carefully by consulting the
manufacturer’s latest released data sheet.
Input Capacitor Selection
Choose the input capacitor (CIN) to be a 10μF ceramic
capacitor that maintains at least 2μF of effective capacitance at its working voltage. Larger values improve the
decoupling of the buck-boost. CIN reduces the current
peaks drawn from the battery or input power source and
reduces switching noise in the device. Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectric are highly recommended
due to their small size, low ESR, and small temperature
coefficients.
All ceramic capacitors derate with DC bias voltage
(effective capacitance goes down as DC bias goes up).
Generally, small case size capacitors derate heavily compared to larger case sizes (0603 case size performs better than 0402). Consider the effective capacitance value
carefully by consulting the manufacturer’s data sheet.
Sufficient output capacitance (COUT) is required to keep
the output voltage ripple small and the regulation loop
stable. Choose the effective COUT to be 16uF, minimum.
Considering the DC bias characteristic of ceramic capacitors, a 47μF 10V capacitor is recommended for most
applications.
Effective COUT is the actual capacitance value seen by
the buck-boost output during operation. Choose effective COUT carefully by considering the capacitor’s initial
tolerance, variation with temperature, and derating with
DC bias.
Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectric are highly
recommended due to their small size, low ESR, and small
temperature coefficients. All ceramic capacitors derate

derate heavily compared to larger case sizes (0603 case

Serial Interface
Figure 5 shows an example of a typical I2C system. A
device on I2C bus that sends data to the bus in called
a “Transmitter”. A device that receives data from the
bus is called a “Receiver”. The device that initiates a
data transfer and generates SCL clock signals to control
the data transfer is a “Master”. Any device that is being
addressed by the master is considered a “Slave”. When
the MAX77813 I2C-compatible interface is operating, it is
a slave on the I2C bus and it can be both a transmitter
and a receiver.
The I2C-compatible 2-wire serial interface is used for
regulator on/off control, setting output voltages, and other
functions. See the Register Map for details.
The I2C serial bus consists of a bidirectional serial-data
line (SDA) and a serial clock (SCL). I2C is an open-drain
bus. SDA and SCL require pullup resistors (500Ω or
greater). Optional 24Ω resistors in series with SDA and
SCL help to protect the device inputs from high voltage
spikes on the bus lines. Series resistors also minimize
crosstalk and undershoot on the bus lines.
Bit Transfer
One data bit is transferred for each SCL clock cycle. The
data on SDA must remain stable during the high portion of
SCL clock pulse. Changes in SDA while SCL is high are
control signals (START and STOP conditions).
System Configuration
The I2C bus is a multi-master bus. The maximum number
of devices that can attach to the bus is only limited by bus
capacitance.

high. A master device initiates communication by issuing
a START condition. A START condition is a high-to-low
transition on SDA with SCL high. A STOP condition is a
low-to-high transition on SDA, while SCL is high.
Acknowledged
When I2C serial interface is inactive, SDA and SCL idle
A START condition from the master signals the beginning
of a transmission to the device. The master terminates
transmission by issuing a NOT-ACKNOWLEDGE followed by a STOP condition.
A STOP condition frees the bus. To issue a series of commands to the slave, the master may issue REPEATED
START (Sr) commands instead of a STOP command
in order to maintain control of the bus. In general, a
REPEATED START command is functionally equivalent
to a regular START command.
When a STOP condition or incorrect address is detected,

Both the I2C bus master and the device (slave) generate

the high period of the clock pulse. To generate a NOTACKNOWLEDGE (nA), the receiving device allows SDA
to be pulled high before the rising edge of the acknowledge-related clock pulse and leaves it high during the
high period of the clock pulse.

Clock Stretching
In general, the clock signal generation for the I2C bus is
the responsibility of the master device. I2C specification
allows slow slave devices to alter the clock signal by
holding down the clock line. The process in which a slave
device holds down the clock line is typically called clock
stretching. The device does not use any form of clock
stretching to hold down the clock line.
General Call Address
The device does not implement I2C specification “General
Call Address.” If the device sees “General Call Address
(00000000b)” it does not issue an ACKNOWLEDGE (A).
Communication Speed
The device provides I2C 3.0-compatible (3.4MHz) serial
interface.
●● I2C Revision 3 Compatible Serial Communications
Channel
• 0Hz to 100kHz (Standard mode)
• 0Hz to 400kHz (Fast mode)
• 0Hz to 1MHz (Fast-mode plus)
• 0Hz to 3.4MHz (High-speed mode)
●● Does not utilize I2C Clock Stretching
Operating in standard mode, fast mode, and fast-mode
plus does not require any special protocols. The main
consideration when changing the bus speed through
this range is the combination of the bus capacitance and
pullup resistors. Higher time constants created by the
bus capacitance and pullup resistance (C x R) slow the
bus operation. Therefore, when increasing bus speeds,
the pullup resistance must be decreased to maintain a
reasonable time constant. See the Pullup Resistor Sizing
www.maximintegrated.com
5.5V Input, 2A, High-Efficiency
Buck-Boost Converter
section of the I2C revision 3.0 specification for detailed
guidance on the pullup resistor selection. In general, for
bus capacitances of 200pF, a 100kHz bus needs 5.6kΩ
pullup resistors, a 400kHz bus needs about 1.5kΩ pullup
resistors, and a 1MHz bus needs 680Ω pullup resistors.
Note that the pullup resistor is dissipating power when the
open-drain bus is low. The lower the value of the pullup
resistor, the higher the power dissipation (V2/R).
Operating in high-speed mode requires some special considerations. For the full list of considerations, see the I2C
3.0 specification. The major considerations with respect to
the MAX77813 are:
●● I2C bus master use current source pullups to shorten
the signal rise times.
●● I2C slave must use a different set of input filters on
its SDA and SCL lines to accommodate for the higher
bus speed.
●● The communication protocols need to utilize the highspeed master code.
At power-up and after each STOP condition, the device
input filters are set for standard mode, fast mode, or
fast-mode plus (i.e., 0Hz to 1MHz). To switch the input
filters for high-speed mode, use the high-speed master
code protocols that are described in the Communication
Protocols section.
Communication Protocols
The device supports both writing and reading from its registers. The following sections show the I2C communication protocols for each functional block. The power block
uses the same communication protocols.

Writing to a Single Register
4) The master sends an 8-bit register pointer.
Figure 9 shows the protocol for the I2C master device to
write one byte of data to the device. This protocol is the
same as SMBus specification’s “Write Byte” protocol.
5) The slave acknowledges the register pointer.
6) The master sends a data byte.
7) The slave acknowledges the data byte. At the rising
edge of SCL, the data byte loads into its target register and the data becomes active.
The “Write Byte” protocol is as follows:
1) The master sends a START command (S).
2) The master sends the 7-bit slave address followed
by a write bit (R/nW = 0).
8) The master sends a STOP condition (P) or a REPEATED START condition (Sr). Issuing a P ensures
that the bus input filters are set for 1MHz or slower
operation. Issuing a REPEATED START (Sr) leaves
the bus input filters in their current state.
3) The addressed slave asserts an ACKNOWLEDGE
(A) by pulling SDA low.

Writing to Sequential Registers
5) The slave acknowledges the register pointer.
Figure 10 shows the protocol for writing to sequential
registers. This protocol is similar to the “Write Byte” protocol, except the master continues to write after it receives
the first byte of data. When the master is done writing, it
issues a STOP or REPEATED START.
6) The master sends a data byte.
7) The slave acknowledges the data byte. At the rising
edge of SCL, the data byte loads into its target register and the data becomes active.
8) Steps 6 to 7 are repeated as many times as the
master requires.
The “Writing to Sequential Registers” protocol is as follows:
1) The master sends a START command (S).
9) During the last acknowledge related clock pulse, the
slave issues an ACKNOWLEDGE (A).
2) The master sends the 7-bit slave address followed
by a write bit (R/nW = 0).
10) The master sends a STOP condition (P) or a REPEATED START condition (Sr). Issuing a P ensures
that the bus input filters are set for 1MHz or slower
operation. Issuing a REPEATED START (Sr) leaves
the bus input filters in their current state.
3) The addressed slave asserts an ACKNOWLEDGE
(A) by pulling SDA low.

Reading from a Single Register
the slave that it wants more data – when the master has all
the data it requires, it issues a NOT-ACKNOWLEDGE (nA)
and a STOP (P) to end the transmission.
The I2C master device reads one byte of data to the
device. This protocol is the same as SMBus specification’s “Read Byte” protocol.
The “Continuous Read from Sequential Registers” protocol is as follows:
The “Read Byte” protocol is as follows:
1) The master sends a START command (S).
1) The master sends a START command (S).
2) The master sends the 7-bit slave address followed
by a write bit (R/nW = 0).
2) The master sends the 7-bit slave address followed
by a write bit (R/nW = 0).
3) The addressed slave asserts an ACKNOWLEDGE
(A) by pulling SDA low.
3) The addressed slave asserts an ACKNOWLEDGE
(A) by pulling SDA low.
4) The master sends an 8-bit register pointer.
4) The master sends an 8-bit register pointer.
5) The slave acknowledges the register pointer.
5) The slave acknowledges the register pointer.
6) The master sends a REPEATED START command
(Sr).
6) The master sends a REPEATED START command
(Sr).
7) The master sends the 7-bit slave address followed
by a read bit (R/nW = 1).
7) The master sends the 7-bit slave address followed
by a read bit (R/nW = 1).
8) The addressed slave asserts an ACKNOWLEDGE
(A) by pulling SDA low.
8) The addressed slave asserts an ACKNOWLEDGE
(A) by pulling SDA low.
9) The addressed slave places 8-bits of data on the bus
from the location specified by the register pointer.
9) The addressed slave places 8-bits of data on the bus
from the location specified by the register pointer.
10) The master issues an ACKNOWLEDGE (A) signaling
the slave that it wishes to receive more data.
10) The master issues a NOT-ACKNOWLEDGE (nA).
11) The master sends a STOP condition (P) or a REPEATED START condition (Sr). Issuing a P ensures
that the bus input filters are set for 1MHz or slower
operation. Issuing a REPEATED START (Sr) leaves
the bus input filters in their current state.
11) Steps 9 to 10 are repeated as many times as the
master requires. Following the last byte of data, the
master must issue a NOT-ACKNOWLEDGE (nA) to
signal that it wishes to stop receiving data.
12) The master sends a STOP condition (P) or a REPEATED START condition (Sr). Issuing a STOP (P)
ensures that the bus input filters are set for 1MHz or
slower operation. Issuing a REPEATED START (Sr)
leaves the bus input filters in their current state.
Reading from Sequential Registers
Figure 11 shows the protocol for reading from sequential
registers. This protocol is similar to the “Read Byte” protocol
except the master issues an ACKNOWLEDGE (A) to signal
*P FORCES THE BUS FILTERS TO SWITCH TO
THEIR ≤ 1MHz MODE. SR LEAVES THE BUS
FILTERS IN THEIR CURRENT STATE.

Engaging HS-Mode for Operation
up to 3.4MHz
3) The master sends the 8-bit master code of
00001xxxb where xxxb are don’t care bits.
The “Engaging HS-Mode” protocol is as follows:
5) The master may now increase its bus speed up to
3.4MHz and issue any read/write operation.
Figure 12 shows the protocol for engaging HS-mode
operation. HS-mode operation allows for a bus operating
speed up to 3.4MHz.
1) Begin the protocol while operating at a bus speed of
1MHz or lower.
2) The master sends a START command (S).
4) The addressed slave issues a NOT-ACKNOWLEDGE (nA).
The master may continue to issue high-speed read/write
operations until a STOP (P) is issued. Issuing a STOP
(P) ensures that the bus input filters are set for 1MHz or
slower operation.
