VCC Decoupling
MAX1951/MAX1952, use an NPN bipolar junction Due to the high switching frequency and tight output transistor or a very low output capacitance open-drain tolerance (1%), decouple VCC with a 0.1µF capacitor MOSFET to pull COMP to GND. Shutdown mode causes connected from VCC to GND, and a 10Ω resistor con- the internal MOSFETs to stop switching, forces LX to a nected from VCC to IN. Place the capacitor as close to high-impedance state, and shorts REF to GND. VCC as possible. Release COMP to exit shutdown and initiate the soft- start sequence.
