Product details
Overview
MAX20057ATIE/VY+T from Analog Devices is an automotive-grade triple-output power management IC integrating two synchronous buck converters (5V/3.5A and 3.3V/2A) and a 36V asynchronous boost controller, operating from 3.5V–36V input and supporting cold-crank down to 2V battery voltage. It delivers regulated outputs for instrument clusters and start-stop systems with 2.1MHz/400kHz selectable switching, spread-spectrum EMI reduction, and -40°C to +125°C operation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX20057ATIE/VY+T datasheet, MAX20057ATIE/VY+T pinout, MAX20057ATIE/VY+T application, or MAX20057ATIE/VY+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-phase buck architecture, crank-ready 2V dropout capability, FSYNC-programmable operation modes (forced PWM, skip, PLL-sync), thermal shutdown at 170°C, and TQFN-EP 5mm × 5mm 28-pin package with exposed pad for automotive thermal reliability.
Technical Context
The MAX20057ATIE/VY+T implements valley-current-mode control for both buck converters, operating 180° out-of-phase to minimize input ripple across 3.5V–36V input range. Its boost controller uses current-mode regulation with 50mV current-sense threshold and supports SEPIC configuration for wide-input stabilization during cold-crank.
FSYNC enables three functional modes: forced fixed-frequency (FPWM), skip mode (ultra-low 8–10μA quiescent current), and phase-locked synchronization to external clock; spread spectrum (±6% frequency dither) is factory-enabled and disabled during external sync. Thermal protection triggers shutdown at 170°C with 20°C hysteresis, and undervoltage lockout ensures safe startup above 3.1V BIAS and 4.5V SUP thresholds.

Pinout & Package
MAX20057ATIE/VY+T is housed in a thermally enhanced 5mm × 5mm, 28-pin TQFN-EP package (package code T2855Y+5C) with exposed pad soldered to PCB ground for optimal heat dissipation in automotive under-hood environments.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN1, EN2, EN3 | Independent enable inputs | High-voltage tolerant (to 40V), allow individual sequencing of buck1, buck2, and boost controllers |
| FB1, FB2, FB3 | Feedback inputs | Regulated to 1.0V ±1.5%; support fixed output (tie to BIAS) or adjustable 1V–14V via resistor divider |
| LX1, LX2 | Buck switch node outputs | Drive external high-side MOSFETs; require ceramic bootstrap capacitors (BST1/BST2) for gate drive |
| PGOOD1, PGOOD2 | Open-drain power-good indicators | Assert low when output drops below 93.5% VOUT; high-impedance above 95% VOUT - used for rail sequencing |
| FSYNC | External clock sync input | Accepts 250kHz–2.6MHz signal; controls mode (skip/FPWM/PLL) and sets 180° phase shift between buck outputs |
| DL | Boost N-MOSFET gate driver | Sources/sinks 1.67A peak; powered by BIAS LDO or EXTVCC - compatible with logic-level MOSFETs |
| BIAS, EXTVCC | Internal LDO output / switchover input | 5V BIAS output (bypass ≥2.2μF); EXTVCC accepts 3.25V–5.5V to disable internal LDO and reduce dissipation |
| AGND, PGND1–PGND3 | Analog & power grounds | Separate AGND (quiet reference) and dedicated PGND pins per converter - critical for noise isolation and thermal path integrity |

| Cold-crank preboost support | Boost controller maintains buck regulation during 2V battery dips - eliminates system brownouts in start-stop cycles |
| Spread-spectrum EMI reduction | ±6% triangular dither at 2.1MHz (110μs period) lowers peak radiated emissions without compromising regulation stability |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 8–10μA per active buck rail meets OEM standby power budgets for always-on automotive modules |
| Integrated thermal protection | 170°C junction shutdown with 20°C hysteresis prevents latch-up during sustained overload or poor heatsinking |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage supported by MAX20057ATIE/VY+T during cold-crank conditions?
The MAX20057ATIE/VY+T supports cold-crank operation down to 2.05V battery input when the integrated boost controller is enabled. This is achieved by preboosting the input to maintain regulation of the 5V and 3.3V buck outputs - verified per datasheet Section "Absolute Maximum Ratings" and "Detailed Description" cold-crank specifications. The boost UVLO falling threshold can be disabled to sustain regulation even below 2V in validated designs.
Does MAX20057ATIE/VY+T support external clock synchronization, and what are the valid frequency ranges?
Yes, MAX20057ATIE/VY+T supports external clock synchronization via the FSYNC pin. For 2.1MHz internal operation, FSYNC accepts 1.8MHz–2.6MHz signals; for 400kHz operation, it accepts 250kHz–550kHz. The device uses a PLL to lock internal timing to the external clock, with precise edge alignment: LX1 falling edge to FSYNC rising edge, LX2 falling edge to FSYNC falling edge - confirmed in "Pin Description" and "Detailed Description" sections.
What is the purpose of the EXTVCC pin on MAX20057ATIE/VY+T, and how does it affect efficiency?
The EXTVCC pin on MAX20057ATIE/VY+T allows bypassing the internal 5V BIAS LDO by applying 3.25V–5.5V externally - reducing internal power dissipation and improving light-load efficiency. When active, EXTVCC powers internal circuitry directly and disables the BIAS LDO; if voltage drops below ~3V, the LDO re-enables automatically. This feature is documented in "Detailed Description" under "EXTVCC Switchover" with efficiency impact quantified in typical operating characteristics.
How does the MAX20057ATIE/VY+T implement overcurrent protection across its three power channels?
MAX20057ATIE/VY+T uses cycle-by-cycle current limiting with hiccup-mode recovery on all three channels. When inductor current exceeds the set threshold (e.g., 4.5–7.5A for Buck1), the affected channel shuts off. If output voltage falls below 0.7V, the IC enters hiccup mode: disabling the channel for ~10ms before retrying. This behavior is specified in "Overcurrent Protection" section and validated in electrical characteristics tables for Buck1/Buck2 current limits and boost CSP threshold (50mV).
Can MAX20057ATIE/VY+T generate adjustable output voltages, and what is the supported range?
Yes, MAX20057ATIE/VY+T supports adjustable outputs for both buck converters (1V–14V) and the boost controller (adjustable option). This is achieved by connecting FB1/FB2/FB3 to resistor dividers instead of tying them to BIAS. Feedback is regulated to 1.0V ±1.5%, enabling precise scaling; the 1V–14V range is explicitly stated in "Detailed Description" and "Electrical Characteristics" under "Output Voltage Adjustable Range".
