9 years agoMax10 Single supply internal voltage regulator
Hi
MAX[SUP]®[/SUP] 10 single-supply devices only need either a 3.0- or 3.3-V external power supply. The external power supply serves as an input to the MAX[SUP]®[/SUP] 10 device VCC_ONE and VCCA power pins. This external power supply is then regulated by an internal voltage regulator in the MAX[SUP]®[/SUP] 10 single-supply device to 1.2 V. The 1.2-V voltage level is required by core logic operation. My question is: What type of voltage regulator is used ? Linear regulator ? Switching regulator? Thanks
