Product details
Overview
The MAX20076BATCB/VY+T from Analog Devices is a 36V input, 1.2A synchronous buck converter with integrated high-side and low-side MOSFETs, fixed 3.3V output (±2% accuracy), 2.1MHz switching frequency, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive power rails. It operates from 3.5V to 36V input, delivers regulated 3.3V at up to 1.2A, and supports dropout operation at 99% duty cycle - ideal for automotive infotainment and ADAS domain controllers requiring stable 3.3V supply under cold-crank conditions.
For engineers reviewing the MAX20076BATCB/VY+T datasheet, MAX20076BATCB/VY+T pinout, MAX20076BATCB/VY+T application, or MAX20076BATCB/VY+T equivalent, key selection considerations include its side-wettable 12-pin TDFN package, 40V load-dump tolerance, PGOOD monitoring, spread-spectrum EMI reduction via SPS pin, and compatibility with FPWM-only operation in automotive environments where predictable switching noise is critical.
Technical Context
This device implements current-mode control with 20ns minimum on-time capability, enabling direct 3.3V regulation from 12V/24V automotive batteries without intermediate stages. Its internal 5V BIAS rail powers gate drivers and analog circuitry, while the EN pin accepts high-voltage logic (up to 36V) for direct connection to battery-sensed microcontroller I/O or CAN-inhibit signals.
The architecture integrates protection features including 40V load-dump survival, thermal shutdown at 175°C (15°C hysteresis), overcurrent limiting at 1.9A (±12%), and undervoltage lockout at 2.73V. It operates exclusively in Forced PWM mode - no skip-mode - ensuring constant 2.1MHz switching for deterministic EMI filtering and AM-band immunity.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
MAX20076BATCB/VY+T uses a 12-pin side-wettable TDFN package (outline 21-100176, land pattern 90-100072) with exposed pad connected to PGND for thermal dissipation. The package supports automated optical inspection of solder joints - critical for automotive production traceability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 SPS | Spread-spectrum enable | Logic-high enables ±6% frequency modulation to reduce EMI peak emissions; internal 1MΩ pulldown ensures default disable |
| 2 EN | High-voltage enable input | Accepts 0–36V logic; drives device into shutdown when low; no internal pullup/pulldown minimizes quiescent current |
| 3 BST | Bootstrap capacitor node | Requires 0.1µF ceramic cap to LX; sustains high-side FET gate drive during 99% duty-cycle dropout operation |
| 4 SUP | Main supply input | 3.5–36V input; requires 4.7µF ceramic decoupling close to pin to handle high di/dt switching currents |
| 5 LX | Switching node | Connects to 4.7µH inductor; internal clamp diodes to PGND/AGND/SUP require careful layout to avoid exceeding power limits |
| 6 PGND | Power ground return | High-current return path for LX, SUP, and OUT; must be tied to exposed pad and kept separate from AGND until single-point connection |
| 7 AGND | Analog ground reference | Low-noise return for FB, BIAS, SYNC, PGOOD; connects to PGND only at OUT capacitor's ground terminal |
| 8 FB | Feedback input | Internally tied to BIAS for fixed 3.3V output; external resistor divider required only for adjustable outputs |
| 9 OUT | Regulated output | 3.3V output node; bypassed with 22µF ceramic capacitor to PGND for stability and transient response |
| 10 BIAS | Internal 5V bias supply | Provides gate-drive and analog bias; requires ≥1µF ceramic cap to AGND; used as pullup for PGOOD |
| 11 SYNC | Frequency synchronization | Connect to BIAS to enable internal 2.1MHz oscillator; accepts 1.7–2.6MHz external clock for system-level timing alignment |
| 12 PGOOD | Open-drain power-good signal | Active-high indicator asserting when VOUT > 93.5% of nominal; requires external 20kΩ pullup to BIAS or system rail |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous buck with integrated FETs | Eliminates external MOSFETs and bootstrap diode; RDS(on) = 300mΩ (HS) / 200mΩ (LS) reduces conduction loss at 1.2A |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX20076ATCB/V+ | Same electrical specs and pinout, but standard TDFN (non-side-wettable) package | Lacks AOI-compatible solder joints; not approved for new automotive designs requiring IPC-A-610 Class 3 inspection | Select only for cost-sensitive industrial prototypes where optical solder inspection is not mandated |
| TPS543320RTWR | 36V, 3A buck with PMBus interface; 2.2MHz switching; no AEC-Q100 rating | Supports digital configuration and telemetry but lacks automotive qualification and 40V load-dump hardening | Prefer for non-automotive industrial servers or test equipment needing programmable voltage margins |
Compared with MAX20076ATCB/V+, the MAX20076BATCB/VY+T adds side-wettable leads for automotive AOI compliance; compared with TPS543320RTWR, it trades digital configurability for guaranteed AEC-Q100 reliability and load-dump survival - making it the only drop-in choice for production automotive ECUs.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage transient the MAX20076BATCB/VY+T can survive?
The MAX20076BATCB/VY+T is rated for 40V load-dump transients per ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a, verified across temperature and process corners. This allows direct connection to unclamped automotive battery rails without external TVS diodes - reducing BOM cost and board area. The device remains functional during the transient and resumes regulation once voltage returns within 3.5V–36V operating range. MAX20076BATCB/VY+T incorporates internal clamping and thermal foldback to prevent latch-up or permanent damage.
Does the MAX20076BATCB/VY+T support skip-mode or DCM operation?
No - the MAX20076BATCB/VY+T operates exclusively in Forced PWM (FPWM) mode to maintain constant 2.1MHz switching frequency. Skip-mode is not supported; attempting light-load operation in discontinuous conduction mode may cause instability or PGOOD assertion failure. For ultra-low-IQ applications requiring skip-mode, Analog Devices recommends the MAX20076D variant instead. MAX20076BATCB/VY+T's FPWM-only design ensures predictable EMI spectrum and eliminates audible coil whine in automotive cabins.
How is the 3.3V output set and trimmed in the MAX20076BATCB/VY+T?
The MAX20076BATCB/VY+T uses factory-laser-trimmed internal feedback resistors to deliver 3.3V ±2% output accuracy across temperature and line/load conditions - no external resistors required. The FB pin is internally connected to the BIAS rail to activate the fixed-output mode. This eliminates resistor tolerance errors and layout sensitivity associated with external dividers. MAX20076BATCB/VY+T achieves ±1.5% FB reference accuracy (1.0V ±15mV), contributing directly to the tight output regulation specification.
What is the purpose of the SPS pin on the MAX20076BATCB/VY+T?
The SPS (Spread-Spectrum) pin on the MAX20076BATCB/VY+T enables ±6% frequency modulation of the 2.1MHz internal oscillator when pulled high, reducing peak radiated EMI by spreading energy across a 126kHz bandwidth. This feature is active only in FPWM mode with internal clocking (SYNC tied to BIAS); it does not interfere with external SYNC clocking. MAX20076BATCB/VY+T's SPS function helps meet CISPR 25 Class 5 automotive EMC requirements without adding ferrite beads or shielding cans.
Can the MAX20076BATCB/VY+T operate in dropout, and what is the minimum input voltage for regulation?
Yes - the MAX20076BATCB/VY+T supports dropout operation down to VIN = VOUT + VDS(on) × IOUT/RDS(on), achieving up to 99% duty cycle. At 1.2A load and 3.3V output, it maintains regulation with input as low as ~3.55V. This enables stable 3.3V supply during automotive cold-crank events where battery voltage dips to 4.5V - well within the 3.5V absolute minimum. MAX20076BATCB/VY+T's dropout behavior is characterized and guaranteed across −40°C to +125°C.
