Product details
Overview
MAX17662BATE+T from Analog Devices is a Himalaya-series synchronous step-down DC-DC converter IC with integrated high-side and low-side MOSFETs, delivering up to 2A output current across a 3.5V–36V input range. It features peak-current-mode control, programmable switching frequency (400kHz–2.2MHz), ±1.33% output voltage regulation accuracy over –40°C to +125°C, and operates in forced PWM or DCM mode for optimized full- and light-load efficiency. It is used in industrial control power supplies requiring compact, thermally robust, single-board regulation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX17662BATE+T datasheet, MAX17662BATE+T pinout, MAX17662BATE+T application, or MAX17662BATE+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 16-pin TQFN-EP (3mm × 3mm) package, internal compensation eliminating external loop components, adjustable EN/UVLO threshold (1.194V–1.303V), 6.5μA shutdown current, and built-in hiccup-mode overload protection with thermal shutdown at +160°C.
Technical Context
The MAX17662BATE+T implements a peak-current-mode control architecture with an internal transconductance error amplifier, slope compensation, and cycle-by-cycle current limiting. Its dual LDO structure (IN-LDO and EXT-LDO) enables VCC biasing from either VIN or EXTVCC (2.448V–12V), improving efficiency at higher input voltages.
It supports monotonic startup into prebiased outputs, programmable soft-start via external capacitor on SS pin, and open-drain RESET assertion when FB falls below 92.0% of regulation voltage (VFB_REG). The device integrates all power switches, feedback reference, and protection logic-including hiccup-mode OCP triggered by FB < 0.390V and thermal shutdown with 20°C hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.5V to 36V - supports wide industrial input rails including 12V, 24V, and 36V systems without external pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | Up to 2A continuous - sufficient for point-of-load regulation in PLC I/O modules and sensor signal chains. |
| Switching Frequency | 400kHz to 2.2MHz (programmable via RT resistor) - enables compact magnetics and EMI optimization in space-constrained designs. |
| Feedback Accuracy | ±1.33% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures stable output voltage across extended industrial ambient conditions. |
| Shutdown Current | 6.5μA - minimizes system standby power in always-on industrial controllers and remote sensors. |
| Thermal Shutdown | +160°C junction with 20°C hysteresis - provides reliable overtemperature protection without latch-up during transient overloads. |
| Package | 16-pin TQFN-EP (3mm × 3mm) - offers low thermal resistance (θJC = 4°C/W) and high power density for convection-cooled PCBs. |
Pinout & Package
MAX17662BATE+T is housed in a 16-pin thermally enhanced thin quad flat no-lead (TQFN-EP) package measuring 3mm × 3mm with exposed pad (EP) for optimal thermal dissipation. The EP must be soldered to SGND and connected to a large copper plane with multiple thermal vias.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (EN/UVLO) | Enable / Input UVLO Input | Configures turn-on threshold via external resistor divider; falling below 0.75V forces true shutdown. |
| 2 (VCC) | Internal 1.8V LDO Output | Powers internal circuitry and low-side gate driver; requires 2.2μF ceramic bypass to SGND. |
| 3 (SGND) | Signal Ground Reference | Reference node for FB, MODE, SS, RT, RESET; must be separated from PGND in layout to avoid noise coupling. |
| 4 (MODE) | Operation Mode Selection | Connect to SGND for constant-frequency PWM; connect to VCC for DCM mode to improve light-load efficiency. |
| 5 (SS) | Soft-Start Timing Input | Capacitor to SGND sets ramp time; prevents inrush current during startup into prebiased outputs. |
| 6 (FB) | Feedback Voltage Input | Monitors output via resistor divider; regulates VOUT from 0.6V to 90% of VIN with ±1.33% accuracy. |
| 7 (RT) | Frequency Programming Input | Resistor to SGND sets fSW between 400kHz and 2.2MHz; open circuit defaults to 500kHz. |
| 8 (RESET) | Open-Drain Output Status Flag | Asserts low if FB drops below 92.0% VFB_REG, during thermal shutdown, or EN/UVLO undervoltage. |
| 9 (EXTVCC) | External Bias Supply Input | Accepts 2.448V–12V to bypass IN-LDO and reduce power loss; improves efficiency at high VIN. |
| 10 (BST) | Bootstrap Capacitor Terminal | Connects 0.1μF ceramic capacitor to LX; supplies gate drive voltage for high-side MOSFET. |
| 11–12 (LX) | Switching Node Outputs | High-current connection points to inductor; share internal high- and low-side MOSFETs and current-sense path. |
| 13–14 (PGND) | Power Ground Terminals | Low-impedance return path for high di/dt currents; must connect directly to power ground plane under EP. |
| 15–16 (VIN) | Main Power Input Pins | Accept 3.5V–36V input; require local 2.2μF ceramic decoupling close to pins and PGND. |
| EP | Exposed Thermal Pad | Must be soldered to SGND and tied to large thermal copper area with ≥4 thermal vias for θJA = 38°C/W. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the MAX17662BATE+T?
The MAX17662BATE+T delivers up to 2A continuous output current across its full operating temperature range of –40°C to +125°C ambient. This rating is supported by its integrated 130mΩ high-side and 90mΩ low-side MOSFETs, internal thermal shutdown at +160°C junction, and 3mm × 3mm TQFN-EP package with 4°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance. Peak current limit is 3.4A (typical), enabling robust transient handling.
Does the MAX17662BATE+T require external compensation components?
No, the MAX17662BATE+T features built-in compensation across its entire output-voltage range (0.6V to 90% of VIN), eliminating the need for external Type-II or Type-III compensation networks. This simplifies design, reduces BOM count, and improves stability margin without requiring loop analysis - a key differentiator from most competing synchronous buck controllers that mandate external RC networks.
How does the MODE pin affect efficiency in the MAX17662BATE+T?
The MODE pin on the MAX17662BATE+T selects between forced PWM mode (MODE = SGND) and DCM mode (MODE = VCC). In DCM mode, the inductor current is allowed to fall to zero at light loads, skipping switching pulses and reducing switching losses - achieving >90% efficiency even at 10mA load. In PWM mode, constant frequency operation maintains EMI predictability but reduces light-load efficiency due to continued switching.
Can the MAX17662BATE+T operate with a prebiased output?
Yes, the MAX17662BATE+T supports monotonic startup into prebiased outputs. When enabled, both high-side and low-side MOSFETs remain off until the internal reference ramps up, preventing reverse current flow from the output rail. This feature is essential for hot-swap applications, redundant power systems, and systems with backup batteries or supercapacitors already holding output voltage prior to enable.
What protection features are integrated into the MAX17662BATE+T?
The MAX17662BATE+T integrates hiccup-mode overcurrent protection (triggered by FB < 0.390V), thermal shutdown (+160°C with 20°C hysteresis), adjustable EN/UVLO, output voltage monitoring with open-drain RESET, and bootstrap undervoltage lockout. It also includes valley current limiting in DCM mode and cycle-by-cycle peak current limiting in PWM mode - providing comprehensive fault coverage without external supervision circuitry.
