Overview

  • 4.5V to 40V (MAX5080) or 7.5V to 40V (MAX5081) Input Voltage Range
  • 1A Output Current
  • VOUT Range From 1.23V to 32V
  • Internal High-Side Switch
  • Fixed 250kHz Internal Oscillator
  • Automatic Switchover to Pulse-Skip Mode at Light Loads
  • External Frequency Synchronization
  • Thermal Shutdown and Short-Circuit Protection
  • Operates Over the -40°C to +125°C Temperature Range
  • Space-Saving (5mm x 5mm) High-Power 16-Pin TQFN Package

The MAX5080/MAX5081 are 250kHz PWM step-down DC-DC converters with an on-chip, 0.3Ω high-side switch. The input voltage range is 4.5V to 40V for the MAX5080 and 7.5V to 40V for the MAX5081. The output is adjustable from 1.23V to 32V and can deliver up to 1A of load current.

Both devices utilize a voltage-mode control scheme for good noise immunity in the high-voltage switching environment and offer external compensation allowing for maximum flexibility with a wide selection of inductor values and capacitor types. The switching frequency is internally fixed at 250kHz and can be synchronized to an external clock signal through the SYNC input. Light load efficiency is improved by automatically switching to a pulse-skip mode.

All devices include programmable undervoltage lockout and soft-start. Protection features include cycle-by-cycle current limit, hiccup-mode output short-circuit protection, and thermal shutdown. Both devices are available in a space-saving, high-power (2.7W), 16-pin TQFN package and are rated for operation over the -40°C to +125°C temperature range.

  • Product Details

    The MAX5080 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled and tested circuit board that evaluates the MAX5080 PWM/PFM step-down converter IC with an integrated high-side switch. The MAX5080 EV kit operates over a wide 4.5V to 40V input voltage range and provides up to 1A at the 3.3V output.

    The MAX5080 internal switching frequency is set to 250kHz. The MAX5080 normally operates as a PWM converter and automatically switches to PFM mode at light loads to improve efficiency. The MAX5080 features a SYNC input to provide external frequency synchronization for noise-sensitive applications. The EV kit features PC board pads to evaluate the SYNC and ON/OFF-bar features of the MAX5080. The MAX5080 can operate over the automotive -40°C to +125°C temperature range. The MAX5080 step-down converter is suitable for FireWire®, automotive, and point-of-load applications.
