Product details
Overview
The MAX20049ATEB/VY+T from Analog Devices is a dual 2.2MHz, 1A synchronous step-down converter with integrated 150mA LDO3 and 400mA LDO4, designed as a single-chip quad-rail power solution for automotive camera modules. It operates from 5V to 17V input, delivers factory-set outputs (e.g., 3.1V/1.8V/2.8V/1.2V), features 180° out-of-phase buck operation, and supports power-over-coax with 500mV SUP1 hysteresis.
For engineers reviewing the MAX20049ATEB/VY+T datasheet, MAX20049ATEB/VY+T pinout, MAX20049ATEB/VY+T application, or MAX20049ATEB/VY+T equivalent, this device addresses critical requirements in automotive ADAS camera power design-including compact all-ceramic layout, AEC-Q100 qualification, output voltage monitoring across all four rails, and robust thermal/current protection without external sequencing circuitry.
Technical Context
The MAX20049ATEB/VY+T integrates two fixed-frequency PWM buck converters operating at 2.2MHz (±3% spread-spectrum option), each with cycle-by-cycle current limiting, 180° phase shift to minimize input ripple, and low on-time architecture enabling direct 17V-to-0.9V conversion. Its dedicated high-voltage LDOIN3 input supports cascading from Buck1/Buck2 or direct coax cable feed.
It includes a 5V BIAS regulator (with 2.7V–2.9V UVLO and 400–700mV hysteresis), independent voltage monitoring per rail with programmable OV/UV thresholds, and open-drain PGOOD asserting only when all four outputs (OUTS1–OUTS4) are simultaneously in regulation-enabling reliable system-level power sequencing in safety-critical vision systems.

FAQ
What input voltage range does the MAX20049ATEB/VY+T support?
The MAX20049ATEB/VY+T supports a 5V to 17V input voltage range on SUP1 and SUP2. This range accommodates standard 12V automotive batteries including cranking transients, and enables direct connection to power-over-coax infrastructure. The 5V rising UVLO threshold and 500mV hysteresis ensure stable startup even with voltage droop on long cables. Operation outside this range may damage the device or cause undefined behavior.
How are output voltages configured on the MAX20049ATEB/VY+T?
Output voltages on the MAX20049ATEB/VY+T are factory-programmed and not adjustable in-circuit. Buck1 and Buck2 offer fixed options including 2.8V, 2.9V, 3.1V, 3.3V, and 3.8V; LDO3 is set to 2.7V, 2.8V, 2.9V, 3.0V, or 3.3V; LDO4 is set in 100mV steps from 1.0V to 2.0V. The specific configuration for MAX20049ATEB/VY+T must be confirmed via ordering code or Analog Devices' parametric search tool-no external resistors or pins configure these values.
Does the MAX20049ATEB/VY+T include built-in protection features?
Yes, the MAX20049ATEB/VY+T integrates cycle-by-cycle current limiting on both buck converters, thermal shutdown with automatic recovery at +175°C (typ), overvoltage protection that disables the high-side MOSFET during fault, and comprehensive undervoltage/overvoltage monitoring on all four output rails. These protections operate independently per rail and feed into the AND-gated PGOOD signal, ensuring system-level fault detection without external supervision circuitry.
What is the purpose of the PGOOD pin on the MAX20049ATEB/VY+T?
The PGOOD pin on the MAX20049ATEB/VY+T is an open-drain output that goes high-impedance only when all four regulated outputs (OUTS1, OUTS2, OUTS3, OUTS4) simultaneously meet their respective overvoltage and undervoltage thresholds. It does not assert until full soft-start completion and stable regulation. A 10kΩ pull-up resistor to BIAS or an external supply is required. This enables safe microcontroller or FPGA enable sequencing in automotive camera systems.
Is the MAX20049ATEB/VY+T qualified for automotive use?
Yes, the MAX20049ATEB/VY+T is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 0) and rated for operation from −40°C to +125°C ambient temperature. Its package, electrical specifications, and reliability testing-including thermal cycling, humidity bias HAST, and package interconnect tests-are validated per automotive standards. The side-wettable TQFN package further supports automated optical inspection for zero-defect manufacturing in automotive supply chains.
