Product details
Overview
MAX20010EVKIT# from Maxim Integrated is an evaluation kit for the MAX20010C and MAX20010D automotive 6A step-down DC-DC converters. It operates from 3V to 5.5V input, delivers up to 6A at adjustable output (0.5V–1.5875V), features I²C control, 2.2MHz switching, ±2% output accuracy, and differential remote sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MAX20010EVKIT# datasheet, MAX20010EVKIT# pinout, MAX20010EVKIT# application, or MAX20010EVKIT# equivalent, this board enables rapid validation of power delivery performance, I²C programmability, PGOOD monitoring, SYNC synchronization, and layout best practices for high-current automotive buck converters.
Technical Context
The MAX20010EVKIT# implements a fully assembled, tested reference design centered on the MAX20010C/MAX20010D 20-pin TQFN-EP IC. It supports three operating modes-forced-PWM, current-mode, and skip-via register configuration, and provides hardware-selectable EN, ADDR, and SYNC I/O functions through jumpers JU1–JU3.
Hardware-level features include differential remote voltage sensing (RS+/RS−), a dedicated PGOOD test point, 2.2MHz fixed-frequency operation with optional external synchronization, and I²C-controlled VID register programming for precise output voltage adjustment between 0.5V and 1.5875V in 6.25mV steps.

FAQ
What does the MAX20010EVKIT# evaluate?
The MAX20010EVKIT# evaluates the MAX20010C and MAX20010D automotive 6A step-down converters. It provides a fully assembled, tested platform to validate electrical performance, I²C programmability, PGOOD signaling, remote sensing accuracy, and thermal behavior under real load conditions. The MAX20010EVKIT# includes all necessary passive components, jumpers for configuration, and test points for critical signals.
Does the MAX20010EVKIT# support output voltage adjustment?
Yes, the MAX20010EVKIT# supports I²C-controlled output voltage adjustment from 0.5V to 1.5875V in 6.25mV steps via the VID registers of the MAX20010C/MAX20010D IC. The default output is set to 1V, but users can reprogram it dynamically during operation. The VIDMAX register limits the maximum allowable voltage to prevent overvoltage conditions.
How is enable/shutdown controlled on the MAX20010EVKIT#?
Enable/shutdown on the MAX20010EVKIT# is controlled via jumper JU2. Placing a shunt across pins 1–2 connects the EN pin to PVDD for normal operation; placing it across pins 2–3 pulls EN low to enter shutdown mode. This hardware-based control allows deterministic power sequencing without requiring I²C communication.
Can the MAX20010EVKIT# be synchronized to an external clock?
Yes, the MAX20010EVKIT# supports external clock synchronization via the SYNC pin. Jumper JU3 configures the pull-up, and the SO[1:0] bits (set via I²C) determine whether SYNC operates as input (master mode, edge-triggered) or output. This enables phase alignment with other switching regulators to reduce system-level EMI.
What test points are provided on the MAX20010EVKIT# for validation?
The MAX20010EVKIT# provides dedicated test points for PVDD, PGND, SD0 (output), PGOOD, RS+, RS−, SDA, SCL, SYNC, and EN. These allow direct probing of input/output voltages, current-sense feedback, I²C bus activity, and power-good status without soldering or modification - essential for lab validation and debug of the MAX20010C/MAX20010D.
