Product details
Overview
MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 from Maxim Integrated is a 2A synchronous buck DC-DC converter with integrated high-side and low-side MOSFETs, operating from 3.5V to 36V input and delivering fixed 5V/3.3V or adjustable 1V–10V output. It achieves 15µA quiescent current in skip mode, supports 220kHz–2.2MHz resistor-programmable switching frequency, and features PGOOD monitoring and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive power rails.
For engineers reviewing the MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 datasheet, MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 pinout, MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 application, or MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 99% dropout capability, ±1% FB accuracy for adjustable outputs, 42V load-dump protection, -40°C to +125°C automotive temperature range, and spread-spectrum EMI reduction via SPS pin control.
Technical Context
This current-mode synchronous buck regulator integrates both power switches and a 5V BIAS LDO, enabling self-powered operation when VOUT ≥ 3V. Its dual supply inputs (SUP and SUPSW) decouple bias and switch driver domains, supporting stable operation during cold-crank transients down to 3.5V.
The device implements cycle-by-cycle current limiting, thermal shutdown at 175°C with 15°C hysteresis, and fast overvoltage protection (107% VFB trip) optimized for automotive transient immunity. FSYNC pin enables seamless transition between skip mode (ultra-low IQ) and forced-PWM mode (EMI-controlled fixed frequency), while SPS pin toggles ±3% triangular spread spectrum modulation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 2A continuous - supports automotive infotainment SoC core rails and ADAS sensor modules without external current boosting. |
| Input Voltage Range | 3.5V to 36V - covers full automotive battery range including cold crank (≥3.5V) and load dump (≤42V protected). |
| Quiescent Current | 15µA in skip mode - enables always-on systems (e.g., CAN wake-up receivers) to meet <100µA system standby budgets. |
| Switching Frequency | 220kHz to 2.2MHz (resistor-programmable) - allows trade-off between inductor size (higher fSW → smaller L) and efficiency (lower fSW → lower switching loss). |
| Output Accuracy | ±2% for fixed 5V/3.3V; ±1% FB reference (0.99V–1.01V) for adjustable outputs - ensures precise voltage regulation across temperature and line/load variations. |
| Duty Cycle Max | 99% - maintains regulation during undervoltage events (e.g., engine start) with minimal dropout (VOUT ≈ 0.99 × VIN − IOUT × RON_H). |
| Protection Features | Cycle-by-cycle current limit, thermal shutdown (175°C), overvoltage protection (107% VFB), 42V load-dump tolerance - meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a requirements. |
Pinout & Package
MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 is housed in a 5mm × 5mm, 20-pin TQFN package with exposed pad (EP), RoHS-compliant, thermal resistance θJA = 30°C/W (4-layer board). The EP must be soldered to a large contiguous PGND copper plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| FOSC | Frequency-setting input | Connect resistor to AGND to set fSW from 220kHz–2.2MHz; determines inductor sizing and EMI profile. |
| OUT | Power output node | Delivers regulated DC output; powers internal circuitry via BIAS when VOUT ≥ 3V in skip mode. |
| FB | Feedback sensing input | Monitors output via resistive divider (1V reference); connects directly to BIAS for fixed 5V/3.3V operation. |
| COMP | Error amplifier output | External RC compensation network stabilizes control loop; required for all configurations except fixed-output with no external components. |
| BIAS | Internal LDO output | 5V ±5% regulated supply for internal logic; bypassed with ≥2.2µF ceramic capacitor to AGND. |
| EN | High-voltage enable input | Logic-compatible with 3.5V–36V; enables/disables converter with 2.4V HI / 0.6V LO thresholds and 0.2V hysteresis. |
| SUPSW | High-side switch supply | Separate input for gate driver; bypassed with 0.1µF + 4.7µF ceramics to PGND to minimize switching noise coupling. |
| SUP | Main supply input | Powers internal bias regulator; bypassed with 2.2µF ceramic to PGND; shares 3.5V–36V rating with SUPSW. |
| PGOOD | Open-drain power-good flag | Asserts high when VOUT > 95% of regulation; deasserts at 92.5%; used for power sequencing with external pull-up. |
| SPS | Spread-spectrum control | Pull high to enable ±3% triangular frequency modulation (110µs period at 2.2MHz); reduces peak EMI by spreading energy. |
| FSYNC | External clock sync input | Connect to AGND for skip mode; to BIAS or external clock for forced-PWM; synchronizes within two cycles. |
| LX (16–18) | Switching node | Three parallel pins for high-current inductor connection; minimizes trace inductance and thermal resistance. |
| PGND (13–14) | Power ground return | Dedicated low-impedance path for high di/dt currents; must be separated from AGND and tied to EP at single point. |
| BST | Bootstrap supply | Connect 0.1µF ceramic between BST and LX to generate gate drive voltage for high-side MOSFET. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output current supported by the MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2?
The MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 delivers up to 2A continuous output current under typical thermal conditions (TA ≤ +70°C, 4-layer PCB). Its LX current limit is specified at 2.5A (min) to 4.16A (max), ensuring reliable operation with margin against transient overloads. Derating applies above +70°C ambient per the 33.3mW/°C thermal coefficient.
Does the MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 support adjustable output voltages?
Yes, the MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 supports output voltages from 1V to 10V using an external resistive divider connected to the FB pin, with ±1% feedback reference accuracy (VFB = 1.00V ±10mV). For fixed outputs, connect FB directly to BIAS to select 5V or 3.3V - both guaranteed within ±2% over temperature and line.
How does the MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 handle automotive cold-crank conditions?
The MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 operates down to 3.5V input and supports 99% maximum duty cycle, enabling regulation during cold-crank events where battery voltage drops below nominal. Its dual SUP/SUPSW inputs maintain gate drive and bias stability even when input falls near the output voltage, preventing dropout-induced system resets.
What is the purpose of the SPS pin on the MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2?
The SPS (Spread Spectrum) pin on the MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 enables ±3% triangular frequency modulation centered on the programmed FOSC value. When pulled high, it reduces peak EMI emissions without external components - critical for passing CISPR 25 Class 5 automotive EMC tests. Modulation period scales inversely with fSW (e.g., 110µs at 2.2MHz, 550µs at 400kHz).
Is the MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 AEC-Q100 qualified?
Yes, the MAX20002ATPB/V+TC2 is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive Grade 1 operation (-40°C to +125°C junction temperature). It includes 42V load-dump protection, thermal shutdown with hysteresis, and robust ESD performance - meeting requirements for front-end power conversion in infotainment, ADAS, and body control modules.
