Product details
Overview
MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T from Analog Devices is a four-output automotive-grade PMIC for camera power management, integrating one 1A high-voltage buck (5V–36V input, 5V fixed output), two 1.2A low-voltage bucks (0.8V–3.9875V adjustable), and one low-noise LDO (50dB PSRR at 1kHz) - all with ±1.5% output accuracy and ASIL B compliance for surround-view and rear-view camera modules.
For engineers reviewing the MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T datasheet, MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T pinout, MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T application, or MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.2MHz fixed-frequency PWM operation, factory-set sequencing via EN23/EN4, OV/UV monitoring with ±1.3% accuracy, AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, and 3.5mm × 3.5mm 20-pin TQFN package optimized for space-constrained automotive imaging systems.
Technical Context
The MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T implements current-mode, forced-PWM control across all three synchronous buck converters to ensure stable transient response and noise immunity in EMI-sensitive camera environments. Its integrated low-RDS(ON) switches, redundant internal reference, and push-pull/open-drain RESET output support robust fault reporting in ASIL B–compliant designs.
Sequencing is controlled externally via EN23 (enables both OUT2 and OUT3) and EN4 (enables OUT4), while factory-programmed output voltages eliminate external resistor networks. Spread-spectrum frequency modulation reduces peak radiated emissions without compromising regulation performance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 5V to 36V - supports direct connection to automotive battery or PoC supply without pre-regulation. |
| OUT1 Output | 5V fixed, 1A - powers downstream converters; eliminates need for external feedback resistors. |
| OUT2/OUT3 Output Range | 0.8V–3.9875V in 12.5mV steps - enables precise rail matching for image sensor cores and serializers. |
| OUT4 LDO PSRR | 50dB at 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent bucks to preserve imager analog performance. |
| Output Voltage Accuracy | ±1.5% over load, line, and temperature - ensures reliable operation of voltage-sensitive CIS and SerDes interfaces. |
| OV/UV Monitoring Accuracy | ±1.3% around set point - provides deterministic fault detection for functional safety diagnostics. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.2MHz fixed - allows full-ceramic design with compact 1µF–2.2µF output capacitors and minimal board area. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 3.5mm × 3.5mm, 20-pin TQFN (exposed pad), RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN | High-voltage input supply | Accepts 5V–36V; connects directly to battery or PoC source for OUT1 stage. |
| OUT1 | High-voltage buck output | 5V fixed, 1A regulated supply; feeds OUT2 and OUT3 converters. |
| OUT2 / OUT3 | Low-voltage buck outputs | Each delivers up to 1.2A; independently adjustable from 0.8V–3.9875V for dual-rail imaging subsystems. |
| OUT4 | LDO output | Low-noise, high-PSRR output for analog sensor core or PLL supply; no external compensation required. |
| EN23 | Enable for OUT2 and OUT3 | Active-high logic input; controls power-up sequencing of secondary rails relative to OUT1. |
| EN4 | Enable for OUT4 | Active-high logic input; enables LDO only after OUT2/OUT3 are stable, supporting safe imager biasing. |
| RESET | Fault indicator output | Push-pull or open-drain configurable; asserts on OV/UV/fault conditions per ASIL B diagnostic requirements. |
| PGND / AGND | Power and analog ground | Separate GND pins minimize noise coupling between switching and sensitive LDO/analog sections. |
| EPAD | Thermal pad | Internally connected to PGND; requires soldered thermal land for 125°C operation and thermal reliability. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PMIC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX25249BTPAS/VY+T | Same pinout and electrical specs; differs only in factory-programmed output voltages for OUT2/OUT3 (default 1.2V/1.8V vs MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T's 0.85V/1.1V). | Optimized for different CIS vendors' voltage requirements; not interchangeable without firmware or hardware revision. | Select based on target image sensor's recommended supply rails - verify factory settings before BOM release. |

FAQ
What is the input voltage range supported by the MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T?
The MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T supports an input voltage range of 5V to 36V on its IN pin, enabling direct connection to automotive battery or power-over-coax (PoC) sources. This wide range accommodates cold-crank (down to 4.5V) and load-dump (up to 40V transient) conditions when used with appropriate external protection, making the MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T suitable for demanding automotive camera applications.
Does the MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T include built-in diagnostics for functional safety compliance?
Yes, the MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T includes OV/UV monitoring with ±1.3% accuracy, redundant internal reference, push-pull or open-drain RESET output, and ASIL B compliance per ISO 26262. These features are integral to the MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T design and enable diagnostic coverage for automotive camera power systems without requiring external supervision circuitry.
Can the output voltages of the MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T be adjusted externally?
No - the MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T has factory-programmed output voltages for OUT1 (5V fixed), OUT2 (0.85V), and OUT3 (1.1V); these cannot be modified externally. The device uses internal DACs and trimming, eliminating external resistors. Only OUT4 (LDO) is fixed at 2.8V. For adjustable versions, consider the MAX25249BTPAS/VY+T or programmable variants outside this family.
What package type and thermal characteristics does the MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T use?
The MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T uses a 3.5mm × 3.5mm, 20-pin TQFN package with exposed thermal pad (EPAD). It is rated for operation from –40°C to +125°C (Grade 1 automotive), and the EPAD must be soldered to a thermal land for reliable heat dissipation. This package enables high-density placement in compact camera modules while maintaining thermal performance under continuous 1.2A loads.
Is the MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T compatible with GMSL or other high-speed camera serializers?
Yes - the MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T is explicitly designed to power GMSL2/GMSL3 and FPD-Link III serializers. Its low-noise LDO (50dB PSRR at 1kHz), tight ±1.5% output accuracy, and 2.2MHz switching frequency minimize interference with high-speed serial links. The MAX25249ATPAS/VY+T's sequencing control (EN23/EN4) also aligns with serializer power-up timing requirements.
