Product details
Overview
MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T from Analog Devices is an automotive-grade, fully integrated 10A synchronous buck converter with internal high-side and low-side MOSFETs, 3.0V–36V input range, ±1% output voltage accuracy (MAX20410E variant), and 400kHz/2.1MHz selectable switching frequency - used in ADAS power rails and infotainment domain controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T datasheet, MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T pinout, MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T application, or MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (17-pin FC2QFN), dual-phase capability up to 20A, windowed PGOOD, 10μA quiescent current in skip mode, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive system design.
Technical Context
The MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T implements average current-mode control with 34ns minimum on-time, enabling stable operation across wide VIN/VOUT ratios (e.g., 12V→3.3V) without pulse-skipping at light load. Its dual-phase architecture supports dynamic current sharing and 180° out-of-phase operation when paired with a second IC.
It integrates a 1.8V BIAS linear regulator, programmable EN threshold (0.825V–0.975V), spread-spectrum EMI reduction, and robust protection including hiccup-mode short-circuit response, thermal shutdown at 175°C, and 42V load-dump tolerance - all validated over –40°C to +125°C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 10A continuous - supports high-power ADAS ECUs and radar modules without external current boosting. |
| Input Voltage Range | 3.0V to 36V - accommodates cold-crank (3V), nominal 12V/24V, and 42V load-dump transients in automotive systems. |
| Switching Frequency | 400kHz or 2.1MHz - enables compact magnetics and avoids AM band interference; 2.1MHz allows <1μH inductors. |
| Output Voltage Accuracy | ±1% (MAX20410E) - ensures precise rail regulation for sensitive SoCs and image sensors in camera modules. |
| Quiescent Current | 10μA in skip mode - extends battery life in always-on vehicle networks (e.g., telematics wake-up circuits). |
| Duty Cycle Max | 99% - maintains regulation during deep dropout (e.g., 5V output from 5.05V input), critical for stop-start operation. |
| PGOOD Window | 102.75%–107.25% (rising), 101.75%–106.25% (falling) - provides tighter fault detection than standard 92–96% windows. |
Pinout & Package
MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T uses a thermally enhanced 3.5mm × 3.75mm, 17-pin FC2QFN package with exposed thermal pad (pin 17 = SYNCOUT). Symmetric SUP/PGND pin placement minimizes high-current loop area and improves EMI performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (EN) | Enable Input | High-voltage compatible (3V–36V); 0.9V typical enable threshold enables direct connection to automotive microcontroller GPIOs. |
| 2 (BST) | Bootstrap Supply | Drives high-side gate; requires 0.1μF ceramic capacitor between BST and LX for proper bootstrap charging. |
| 3, 9 (SUP) | IC Power Input | Dual SUP pins internally connected; bypass with 0.1μF + 4.7μF ceramics close to pins for noise immunity. |
| 4, 5, 7, 8 (PGND) | Power Ground | Four dedicated PGND pins reduce ground impedance and improve thermal dissipation under 10A load. |
| 6 (LX) | Switch Node | Connects to buck inductor; high-impedance when disabled; requires tight layout to minimize EMI and ringing. |
| 10 (GND) | Analog Ground | Separate from PGND; connects to PCB ground plane at single point to avoid noise coupling into feedback path. |
| 11 (BIAS) | 1.8V Linear Regulator Output | Powers internal circuitry; requires ≥2.2μF ceramic cap to GND; switches source from VIN to VOUT after startup. |
| 12 (FB) | Feedback Input | Accepts resistor divider for adjustable output (0.8V–10V) or ties to BIAS for fixed 3.3V/4V/5V options. |
| 13 (OUT) | Output Sense | Used only with fixed-output configuration (FB tied to BIAS); senses actual VOUT for accurate regulation. |
| 14 (VEA) | Error Amplifier Output | Connected between controller/target in dual-phase mode for synchronized current sharing; open in single-phase. |
| 15 (PGOOD) | Open-Drain Power-Good | Asserts low during soft-start or if VOUT falls outside windowed threshold; requires external pull-up to ≤5.5V. |
| 16 (SYNC) | Synchronization Input | Configures FPWM (high), skip mode (low), or external clock sync (AC signal); supports 360kHz–2.6MHz range. |
| 17 (SYNCOUT) | 180° Out-of-Phase Clock | In dual-phase, connects to SYNC of target IC; left open in single-phase; enables precise interleaving without external logic. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Windowed PGOOD | 102.75%–107.25% rising / 101.75%–106.25% falling thresholds - enables precise overvoltage and undervoltage detection for safety-critical rails. |
| Dual-Phase Scalability | Supports 20A total output with dynamic current sharing and 180° phase shift - eliminates need for external current-sharing ICs in high-power ADAS designs. |
| Accurate EN Threshold | 0.825V–0.975V enable threshold with ±50mV hysteresis - ensures reliable startup across battery voltage drift and temperature variation. |
| Spread-Spectrum EMI Reduction | ±3% frequency modulation - lowers peak radiated emissions by >10dB, easing CISPR 25 Class 5 compliance in automotive cabins. |
| Thermally Optimized FC2QFN | θJCb = 7.7°C/W (4-layer EV kit) - sustains 10A continuous output at +85°C ambient without forced airflow or heatsink. |
| Low Dropout Operation | 99% max duty cycle - regulates 5V output from as low as 5.05V input, supporting engine stop-start and cold-crank scenarios. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX20410AFOF/VY+T | Non-E variant: ±2% output accuracy, standard PGOOD (92–96%), higher EN threshold (1.2V), no windowed PGOOD or improved EN hysteresis. | Lower-cost option for non-safety-critical industrial supplies where ±2% regulation suffices and load-dump immunity is less stringent. | Select MAX20410AFOF/VY+T when budget constraints outweigh need for automotive-grade accuracy and windowed fault detection. |
| TPS546B24RVFT | Texas Instruments part: 12A rating, 2.2V–18V input, PMBus interface, lower IQ (2.5μA), but no AEC-Q100 qualification or 42V load-dump support. | Targeted at data center or telecom power where digital control and telemetry are required, not automotive environmental robustness. | Choose TPS546B24RVFT only for non-automotive applications needing PMBus configurability and sub-3μA quiescent current. |
Compared with MAX20410AFOF/VY+T, the MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T adds windowed PGOOD and ±1% accuracy essential for ASIL-B subsystems, while TPS546B24RVFT offers digital control at the cost of automotive qualification - making MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T the sole choice for AEC-Q100-compliant 10A buck conversion.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current supported by the MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T?
The MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T delivers up to 10A continuous output current at 400kHz switching frequency and full thermal derating. At 2.1MHz, it supports 8A continuously due to higher switching losses. Peak current capability remains 14A (typical ILIM threshold), but sustained operation above 10A requires dual-phase configuration or active cooling.
Does the MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T support fixed output voltage without external resistors?
Yes. The MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T supports factory-programmed fixed outputs of 3.3V, 4V, or 5V. To use fixed mode, connect FB directly to BIAS and route OUT to the output capacitor. This eliminates resistor-divider errors and simplifies layout for production-critical automotive modules where component count must be minimized.
How does the windowed PGOOD feature differ from standard PGOOD in the MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T?
The MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T implements a windowed PGOOD with asymmetric thresholds: rising edge triggers at 102.75%–107.25% of nominal VOUT, and falling edge asserts at 101.75%–106.25%. This detects both overvoltage and undervoltage faults simultaneously - unlike standard PGOOD (92–96%), which only monitors undervoltage - enhancing functional safety in ASIL-B systems.
Can the MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T operate in dropout mode, and what is the minimum input voltage for 5V output?
Yes. The MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T operates in dropout mode with up to 99% duty cycle. For a 5V output, the minimum input voltage is 5.05V (5V ÷ 0.99), enabling stable regulation during automotive cold-crank events down to 5.05V - critical for start-stop systems where battery voltage dips below 6V.
Is the MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX204xx family?
Yes. The MAX20410EAFOF/VY+T uses the same 17-pin FC2QFN footprint as MAX20408EAFOF/VY+T, MAX20408AFOF/VY+T, and MAX20410AFOF/VY+T. It is also pin-to-pin compatible with the lower-current MAX20404/MAX20405/MAX20406 family (4A–6A), allowing scalable power design with minimal PCB redesign.
