MAX8710/MAX8711/MAX8712/MAX8761
The MAX8710/MAX8711/MAX8712/MAX8761 offer com-
plete linear-regulator power-supply solutions for thin-film
transistor (TFT) liquid-crystal-display (LCD) panels used
in LCD monitors and LCD TVs. All four devices include a
high-performance AV
DD
linear regulator, a positive
charge-pump regulator, a negative charge-pump regula-
tor, and built-in power-up sequence control. The
MAX8710/MAX8711/MAX8761 also include a high-cur-
rent operational amplifier. Additionally, the MAX8710/
MAX8761 provide logic-controlled high-voltage switches
to control the positive charge-pump output.
The linear regulator directly steps down the input voltage
to generate the supply voltage for the source-driver ICs
(AV
DD
). The two built-in charge-pump regulators
are used to generate the TFT gate-on and gate-off sup-
plies. The high-current operational amplifier is typically
used to drive the LCD backplane (VCOM) and features
high output current (150mA), fast slew rate (12V/µs), and
wide bandwidth (12MHz). Its rail-to-rail inputs and output
maximize flexibility.
The MAX8710/MAX8761 are available in a 24-pin thin
QFN package, the MAX8711 is available in a 16-pin thin
QFN package, and the MAX8712 is available in a 12-pin
thin QFN package. All three packages are 4mm x 4mm
with a maximum thickness of 0.8mm for ultra-thin LCD
panel design. The MAX8710/MAX8711/MAX8712 oper-
ate over the -40°C to +100°C temperature range and the
MAX8761 operates over the -40°C to +85°C range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
