Product details
Overview
The MAX17552ATB+T from Analog Devices is a Himalaya-series synchronous step-down DC-DC converter with integrated high-side pMOS and low-side nMOS FETs, operating from 4V to 60V input and delivering up to 100mA at 0.8V–0.9×VIN output voltage with ±1.75% regulation accuracy over –40°C to +125°C. It features peak-current-mode control, programmable 100kHz–2.2MHz switching frequency, 22µA no-load supply current in PFM mode, and operates in a compact 10-pin TDFN (3mm × 2mm) package.
For engineers reviewing the MAX17552ATB+T datasheet, MAX17552ATB+T pinout, MAX17552ATB+T application, or MAX17552ATB+T equivalent, key selection considerations include its ultra-low quiescent current for battery-powered sensors, wide input range for industrial 24V/48V rails, PFM/PWM mode configurability for light-load efficiency vs. EMI control, and built-in RESET monitoring for system-level power sequencing.
Technical Context
The MAX17552ATB+T implements a peak-current-mode control architecture with internal slope compensation and an error amplifier comparing FB voltage to a 0.8V reference. Its MODE pin selects between forced-PWM (constant frequency, negative inductor current allowed) and PFM (pulse-skipping, zero negative current, 22µA IQ), enabling dynamic trade-offs between EMI predictability and light-load efficiency.
It integrates protection features including cycle-by-cycle peak-current limiting (210mA typ), thermal shutdown at +160°C with 20°C hysteresis, monotonic startup into prebiased outputs, and open-drain RESET with 95% rising/92% falling thresholds. The EN/UVLO pin supports programmable turn-on at 1.25V (rising) with 100nA leakage, and RT/SYNC enables external clock synchronization up to 2.2MHz.

Pinout & Package
MAX17552ATB+T is housed in a 10-pin TDFN package (3mm × 2mm, exposed pad), optimized for thermal performance on four-layer PCBs (θJA = 67.3°C/W). Pin functions are validated per Analog Devices' official pin description and block diagram.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN (Pin 1) | Power Input | Bypassed with 1µF X7R ceramic; accepts 4V–60V unregulated input for direct connection to industrial bus rails. |
| EN/UVLO (Pin 2) | Enable & UV Detection | Active-high logic input; threshold 1.25V rising enables soft-start; resistor divider sets custom UVLO trip point. |
| RT/SYNC (Pin 3) | Oscillator Timing / Clock Sync | Resistor-to-GND sets fSW (100kHz–2.2MHz); AC-coupled external clock synchronizes switching to reduce EMI peaks. |
| SS (Pin 4) | Soft-Start Control | Capacitor-to-GND programs ramp time (default 5.1ms); prevents inrush current into downstream capacitors. |
| FB (Pin 5) | Feedback Input | Connects to resistor divider from VOUT; regulates output to 0.8V reference with ±1.75% accuracy over temperature. |
| VOUT (Pin 6) | External Bias Supply | Connected to output capacitor via 22.1Ω resistor for 3.3V–5V outputs; decoupled with 0.22µF for internal LDO stability. |
| RESET (Pin 7) | Open-Drain Power-Good | Pulls low when FB < 92% of setpoint; releases after 2ms delay when FB > 95% - enables sequenced system boot. |
| MODE (Pin 8) | PFM/PWM Selection | Unconnected = automatic PFM at light loads; grounded = forced PWM for fixed-frequency operation and EMI control. |
| GND (Pin 9) | Power Ground | Primary ground return; exposed pad (EP) must be soldered to GND plane for thermal and electrical integrity. |
| LX (Pin 10) | Switch Node | Connects to inductor switch node; high-impedance in shutdown; drives internal high-side pMOS and low-side nMOS. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the MAX17552ATB+T?
The MAX17552ATB+T delivers up to 100mA of continuous output current across its full input voltage range (4V–60V) and output voltage range (0.8V–0.9×VIN). This rating is validated under thermal constraints of its 3mm × 2mm TDFN package with proper PCB copper area and airflow. Peak current limit is 210mA (typ), providing headroom for transient loads without triggering hiccup protection.
How does the MODE pin affect efficiency and EMI behavior in the MAX17552ATB+T?
When the MODE pin is left unconnected, the MAX17552ATB+T operates in PFM mode, skipping pulses at light loads to achieve 22µA no-load supply current and >85% efficiency at 1mA load. When grounded, it forces constant-frequency PWM operation - improving EMI predictability and reducing spectral spreading but increasing light-load IQ to ~245µA. The choice directly impacts battery life and EMC compliance strategy.
Can the MAX17552ATB+T be synchronized to an external clock source?
Yes, the MAX17552ATB+T supports external clock synchronization via the RT/SYNC pin. An AC-coupled clock signal (with minimum off-time ≥40ns and rising threshold of 1.22V) can lock the internal oscillator to frequencies up to 2.2MHz. This feature enables deterministic switching alignment across multiple converters to suppress beat frequencies and simplify EMI filter design in multi-rail systems.
What is the purpose of the VOUT pin on the MAX17552ATB+T, and how should it be connected?
The VOUT pin on the MAX17552ATB+T supplies bias to the internal LDO regulator that powers control circuitry. For output voltages between 3.3V and 5V, connect VOUT to the output capacitor's positive terminal through a 22.1Ω resistor and decouple to GND with a 0.22µF capacitor. For outputs <3.3V or >5V, connect VOUT directly to GND. Incorrect connection degrades regulation accuracy and may cause startup failure.
Does the MAX17552ATB+T provide output voltage monitoring, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the MAX17552ATB+T provides output voltage monitoring via the open-drain RESET pin. It asserts low when the FB voltage falls below 92% of its regulated value and releases high-impedance 2ms after FB rises above 95%. This provides a robust, temperature-stable power-good signal for microcontroller reset sequencing, independent of external supervision ICs.
