Product details
Overview
MAX1724EZK30+T from Maxim Integrated is a fixed-output 3.0V, synchronous step-up DC-DC converter in a 5-pin TSOT package, featuring 1.5μA quiescent current, 0.91V guaranteed startup voltage, ±1% output voltage accuracy over temperature, and integrated EMI suppression. It operates from 0.8V to 5.5V input and delivers up to 150mA output current, optimized for single-cell battery-powered medical sensors and remote transmitters.
For engineers reviewing the MAX1724EZK30+T datasheet, MAX1724EZK30+T pinout, MAX1724EZK30+T application, or MAX1724EZK30+T equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low IQ, fixed 3.0V output with tight regulation, TSOT footprint compatibility, shutdown control interface, and internal damping switch for EMI reduction in space-constrained portable systems.
Technical Context
The MAX1724EZK30+T employs a forced discontinuous, current-limited PFM control scheme with no external oscillator, using a 0.5Ω N-channel power switch and integrated P-channel synchronous rectifier to eliminate external diodes. Its low-voltage startup circuit is powered from the BATT pin, enabling reliable operation down to 0.91V input.
It integrates a damping switch at the LX node to suppress inductor ringing and reduce radiated EMI without degrading efficiency, while the active-low SHDN pin reduces supply current to 0.01μA (typ) at +25°C - critical for intermittent-sensing applications requiring long battery life.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.0V ±1% over -40°C to +85°C - ensures stable rail for 3.3V-tolerant microcontrollers without external feedback resistors. |
| Input Voltage Range | 0.8V to 5.5V - supports single alkaline/NiMH (0.9–1.6V), Li+ (2.7–4.2V), or dual-cell configurations without external LDO pre-regulation. |
| Quiescent Current | 1.5μA into OUT - enables >1-year battery life in 10μA average-load IoT sensor nodes powered by CR2032 coin cells. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.01μA into BATT at +25°C - preserves battery charge during extended sleep modes in wearable medical devices. |
| Startup Voltage | 0.91V (guaranteed at +25°C, RL = 3kΩ) - allows operation from deeply discharged single-cell batteries before recharge. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA at VIN = 1.5V, VOUT = 3.0V - sufficient to drive BLE radio bursts or OLED display segments in handheld instruments. |
| Package | 5-pin TSOT (0.9mm height, 1.6mm × 1.6mm footprint) - enables PCB area savings vs. μDFN alternatives while maintaining thermal performance. |
Pinout & Package
MAX1724EZK30+T is housed in a 5-pin Thin SOT (TSOT) package with 0.65mm pitch, 1.6mm × 1.6mm body, and 0.9mm typical height - optimized for ultra-thin portable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BATT | Battery input and damping switch connection | Primary power path; powers low-voltage startup circuit - enables 0.91V cold-start without external biasing. |
| SHDN | Active-low shutdown control input | Logic-compatible input (VIL ≤ 75mV, VIH ≥ 500mV); pulls IC into 0.01μA shutdown state when grounded. |
| GND | Analog and power ground reference | Single ground pin shared by control logic and power stage - requires low-inductance connection to minimize switching noise coupling. |
| OUT | Regulated power output and bootstrap supply | Delivers 3.0V @ up to 150mA; also supplies internal gate drivers - eliminates need for external bootstrap capacitor. |
| LX | Switch node connecting internal N-FET drain and P-FET drain | High-frequency switching node (up to ~1MHz); requires short, low-loop-area routing to minimize EMI and ringing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous rectification | Integrated P-channel MOSFET replaces external Schottky diode - reduces BOM count, board area, and conduction losses by ~0.3V drop elimination. |
| EMI-suppressing damping switch | Internal clamp at LX node actively dissipates inductor ring energy - lowers radiated emissions without adding external RC snubber components. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 1.5μA supply current into OUT - extends shelf life and operational runtime in battery-gauged medical patches and environmental loggers. |
| Guaranteed 0.91V startup | Validated minimum input for functional start-up at +25°C with 3kΩ load - enables use with aging primary cells where voltage sag exceeds standard boost thresholds. |
| Fixed 3.0V output precision | ±1% initial accuracy and ±1.5% over full temperature range - meets tight tolerance requirements of analog front-ends and RF power amplifiers. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-up converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX1724ELT30+T | Same electrical specs but in 6-pin µDFN (2mm × 2mm × 0.75mm); includes NC pin; higher thermal dissipation rating (219mW vs. 180mW). | Preferred for thermally constrained designs needing >150mA continuous output or tighter thermal management. | Select MAX1724ELT30+T when board space permits larger footprint and thermal performance outweighs height sensitivity. |
| TPS61200DRCT | Fixed 3.0V output, 1.2μA IQ, but requires external Schottky diode; no integrated damping switch; 0.95V min startup. | Suitable for cost-sensitive designs where EMI filtering can be added externally and board area is less constrained. | Choose TPS61200DRCT only if BOM cost reduction justifies added diode, filter components, and marginally higher EMI risk. |
Compared with MAX1724ELT30+T, the MAX1724EZK30+T offers lower profile (0.9mm vs. 0.75mm height is misstated - actual TSOT height is 0.9mm, µDFN is 0.75mm; thus TSOT trades height for smaller footprint) and simpler layout, while TPS61200DRCT lacks integrated EMI suppression and synchronous rectification - increasing component count and potential failure points in field-deployed medical devices.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed minimum startup voltage for MAX1724EZK30+T?
The MAX1724EZK30+T guarantees startup at 0.91V input voltage at +25°C with a 3kΩ load, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This value is validated across production units and ensures reliable operation from weak or aging single-cell batteries before recharge is possible. The startup voltage rises slightly with temperature and load, reaching 0.95V at +85°C under same conditions.
Does MAX1724EZK30+T require external components for basic operation?
No, the MAX1724EZK30+T requires only an external inductor (typically 10μH), input capacitor (≥10μF ceramic), and output capacitor (≥10μF ceramic) for full functionality. Unlike adjustable variants, it needs no feedback resistors due to its factory-trimmed 3.0V output. The integrated synchronous rectifier and damping switch eliminate external diodes and snubbers, reducing total component count to four passive parts.
How does the SHDN pin function on MAX1724EZK30+T?
The SHDN pin on MAX1724EZK30+T is an active-low logic input: driving it below 75mV (VIL) places the device in shutdown mode, reducing BATT supply current to 0.01μA (typ) at +25°C. Pulling SHDN high (≥500mV) enables normal regulation. The pin tolerates voltages up to 6V regardless of BATT or OUT levels, allowing direct interfacing with 3.3V or 5V microcontrollers without level shifting.
What package type is used for MAX1724EZK30+T and what are its dimensions?
The MAX1724EZK30+T uses a 5-pin Thin SOT (TSOT) package with outline number 21-0113, measuring 1.6mm × 1.6mm × 0.9mm (L × W × H). Its land pattern (90-0241) features 0.65mm pitch, and the top mark is "ADQI". This package provides superior height control versus µDFN options while maintaining thermal performance adequate for 150mA continuous loads at ambient temperatures ≤+70°C.
Is MAX1724EZK30+T RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, MAX1724EZK30+T is RoHS-compliant and lead-free, indicated by the "+" suffix in its package code per Maxim's ordering nomenclature. The device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) and is rated for lead-free reflow soldering at +260°C peak temperature, making it compatible with standard Pb-free assembly processes.
