Product details
Overview
MAX15006BASA/V+ from Maxim Integrated is an automotive-grade, ultra-low quiescent-current linear regulator with fixed 5V output, 4V–40V input range, 50mA output capability, and 300mV dropout at full load. It operates across –40°C to +125°C and is used in tire-pressure monitoring systems where cold-crank resilience and low standby power are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MAX15006BASA/V+ datasheet, MAX15006BASA/V+ pinout, MAX15006BASA/V+ application, or MAX15006BASA/V+ equivalent, key selection factors include guaranteed 50mA output under automotive thermal conditions, 10μA no-load quiescent current, stable operation with 2.2μF ceramic output capacitor, and SO-EP package compatibility with high-reliability PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device uses a p-channel pass transistor architecture to maintain ultra-low ground current (10μA no load, 90μA at 50mA) across its full operating temperature range. Its internal 1.23V reference and error amplifier enable precise 5.0V ±2.5% regulation over line, load, and temperature.
The regulator integrates thermal shutdown (+165°C trip, 20°C hysteresis) and short-circuit protection (175mA limit), and withstands 45V load dump transients-critical for 12V/24V automotive electrical systems. It lacks an enable input (distinguishing it from MAX15007 variants).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0V ±2.5% (guaranteed over –40°C to +125°C, 1mA–50mA load) |
| Input Voltage Range | 4V to 40V - supports cold-crank (down to ~4V) and load-dump (up to 45V transient) |
| Quiescent Current | 10μA at no load - enables >10-year battery life in always-on TPMS sensors |
| Max Output Current | 50mA - sufficient for MCU, RF transceiver, and sensor biasing in compact modules |
| Dropout Voltage | 300mV at 50mA - ensures regulation down to VIN = 5.3V, critical during engine cranking |
| Thermal Shutdown | +165°C trip with 20°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload in sealed enclosures |
| Package Thermal Resistance | θJA = 53°C/W (SO-EP) - enables 1.5W dissipation at TA = +70°C before derating |
Pinout & Package
MAX15006BASA/V+ is supplied in an 8-pin SO-EP (Small Outline–Exposed Pad) package, thermally enhanced for automotive under-hood applications. The exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for optimal thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN) | Regulator input supply | Accepts 4V–40V; requires 0.1μF bypass to GND; withstands 45V transients |
| 2 (OUT) | Regulated 5V output | Delivers up to 50mA; requires ≥2.2μF low-ESR ceramic capacitor to GND for stability |
| 3 (GND) | Analog and power ground | Reference node for regulation; connects internally to exposed pad (EP) |
| 4 (N.C.) | No connection | Not bonded; must remain unconnected on PCB; no routing or stitching |
| 5 (N.C.) | No connection | Not bonded; must remain unconnected on PCB; no routing or stitching |
| 6 (N.C.) | No connection | Not bonded; must remain unconnected on PCB; no routing or stitching |
| 7 (N.C.) | No connection | Not bonded; must remain unconnected on PCB; no routing or stitching |
| 8 (N.C.) | No connection | Not bonded; must remain unconnected on PCB; no routing or stitching |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar linear regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX15006BATT/V+ | Same 5V output, identical specs, but in 6-pin TDFN-EP package (3mm × 3mm vs. SO-EP's 5mm × 6mm) | Better thermal performance (θJA = 42°C/W) and smaller footprint - preferred for space-constrained modules | Select when board area or thermal resistance is prioritized over legacy SO footprint compatibility |
| TLV73350PDBVR | 5V fixed LDO with 65μA IQ, 300mA output, but only rated to +105°C and lacks load-dump tolerance | Not automotive-qualified; unsuitable for under-hood use or 45V transients; limited to cabin or industrial ambient | Consider only for non-automotive, cost-sensitive designs where 50mA+ output and extended temperature are not required |
Compared with MAX15006BATT/V+, the SO-EP package of MAX15006BASA/V+ eases hand-soldering and rework while maintaining full automotive qualification; compared with TLV73350PDBVR, MAX15006BASA/V+ delivers true AEC-Q100 compliance, 45V transient immunity, and 10× lower quiescent current - making it irreplaceable in battery-critical automotive sensing.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the MAX15006BASA/V+ can withstand during load-dump events?
The MAX15006BASA/V+ is designed to withstand 45V transients on its IN pin without damage or regulation loss. This is verified per ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a testing and enables direct connection to automotive 12V/24V rails without external TVS diodes - a key reliability advantage confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
Does the MAX15006BASA/V+ include an enable (EN) input?
No, the MAX15006BASA/V+ does not include an enable input. It is a permanently enabled regulator. The enable function is exclusive to the MAX15007 series (e.g., MAX15007BASA/V+). This distinction is clearly indicated in the Selector Guide and Pin Configurations - MAX15006 variants have all pins 4–8 marked N.C., with no EN functionality.
What output capacitor value is required for stable operation of the MAX15006BASA/V+?
The MAX15006BASA/V+ requires a minimum 2.2μF low-ESR ceramic or tantalum capacitor from OUT to GND for guaranteed stability across –40°C to +125°C and 0–50mA load. Larger values (e.g., 22μF) further improve PSRR and transient response, but 2.2μF is the validated minimum per Electrical Characteristics and Applications Information sections.
Is the MAX15006BASA/V+ qualified for automotive use?
Yes, the /V+ suffix explicitly denotes AEC-Q100 qualification. The MAX15006BASA/V+ is rated for –40°C to +125°C operation, undergoes automotive-grade reliability screening, and is packaged in RoHS-compliant SO-EP with exposed pad - meeting requirements for under-hood and safety-critical automotive applications as documented in the Ordering Information and Package Information tables.
What is the dropout voltage of the MAX15006BASA/V+ at 50mA output current?
The dropout voltage of the MAX15006BASA/V+ is 300mV (typical) at 50mA output current and +25°C, with a maximum of 525mV across –40°C to +125°C. This value is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Dropout Voltage" for MAX15006B/MAX15007B at IOUT = 50mA - enabling reliable 5V regulation down to VIN = 5.3V.
