Product details
Overview
The MAX5035AUPA from Maxim Integrated is a high-voltage, 1A step-down DC-DC converter with fixed 3.3V output, operating from 7.5V to 76V input and consuming only 270µA quiescent current at no load. It integrates a 0.4Ω high-side DMOS FET, internal frequency compensation, and operates at a fixed 125kHz switching frequency with pulse-skipping mode for light-load efficiency. It delivers stable 3.3V power in automotive body control modules requiring wide-input, high-reliability regulation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX5035AUPA datasheet, MAX5035AUPA pinout, MAX5035AUPA application, or MAX5035AUPA equivalent, key selection criteria include its 76V max input rating, 8-pin PDIP package thermal performance (θJA = 110°C/W), undervoltage lockout at 5.2V, hiccup-mode short-circuit protection, and compatibility with standard Schottky freewheeling diodes like 50SQ100.
Technical Context
This voltage-mode buck converter uses feed-forward control and an integrated high-voltage DMOS switch to maintain >90% efficiency across 7.5–76V input range while delivering up to 1A. Its internal 7.8V regulator powers gate drive and analog circuitry, and the BST pin enables bootstrap operation for the high-side N-channel FET.
It features automatic transition between PWM and pulse-skipping modes based on load current, with PFM threshold set at 55–130mA. Protection includes cycle-by-cycle current limiting (1.3–2.5A peak), thermal shutdown at +160°C with 20°C hysteresis, and undervoltage lockout with internal 5.2V threshold or external programmable UVLO via ON/OFF pin.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 7.5V to 76V - supports direct connection to 24V/48V industrial buses and 12V/24V automotive systems without pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage | 3.3V ±3.5% (3.185V–3.415V) - tightly regulated for powering 3.3V microcontrollers and logic in harsh environments. |
| Max Output Current | 1A continuous - limited by thermal dissipation in 8-pin PDIP package (727mW @ +70°C, derated 9.1mW/°C above). |
| Quiescent Current | 270µA typical at no load - enables low-power standby operation in always-on automotive modules. |
| Switching Frequency | 125kHz (109–137kHz) - fixed-frequency PWM simplifies EMI filtering; compatible with standard 100µH inductors. |
| Internal High-Side RDS(ON) | 0.4Ω typical - reduces conduction loss and improves full-load efficiency up to 86% at 12VIN/3.3VOUT. |
| Shutdown Current | 10µA typical - ensures minimal battery drain during system sleep states. |
Pinout & Package
MAX5035AUPA is housed in an 8-pin plastic DIP (dual in-line package) with through-hole mounting, optimized for manual assembly and high-temperature industrial applications. Thermal resistance θJA = 110°C/W enables operation up to +85°C ambient without forced airflow.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BST | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Connects 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to LX to generate gate drive voltage for internal high-side DMOS FET. |
| VD | Internal regulator output | Provides ~7.8V bias supply for gate driver and analog circuits; requires 0.1µF bypass to GND. |
| SGND | Signal ground reference | Must be connected directly to system GND; separates analog return from power ground paths. |
| FB | Feedback input | Connected directly to VOUT for fixed 3.3V version; senses output to regulate voltage at internal 1.22V reference. |
| ON/OFF | Enable/shutdown control | Logic-high (>1.69V) enables operation; logic-low disables switching and reduces supply current to 10µA. |
| GND | Power ground | Main return path for high-current switch node and output capacitor; must connect to SGND at single point. |
| VIN | Main input supply | Accepts 7.5–76V DC; requires low-ESR input capacitor (e.g., 68µF aluminum electrolytic) placed adjacent to pin. |
| LX | Switch node | Drives external Schottky diode (e.g., 50SQ100); connects to inductor and BST capacitor; handles high dv/dt switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated high-voltage DMOS FET | 0.4Ω RDS(ON) enables self-contained buck conversion without external MOSFET, reducing BOM count and layout complexity. |
| Internal frequency compensation | Eliminates need for external compensation network - simplifies design and ensures stable loop response with standard LC filters. |
| Pulse-skipping mode | Reduces quiescent current to 270µA at light loads while maintaining regulation, extending battery life in intermittent-use systems. |
| Hiccup-mode short-circuit protection | Shuts down on overload, cools, then retries - prevents thermal runaway and enables safe recovery without external reset. |
| Wide-input UVLO with external programmability | Default 5.2V internal lockout or user-configurable threshold via resistive divider on ON/OFF pin for custom brown-out behavior. |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Unit | Industrial PLC I/O Module |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down DC-DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5008AMM/NOPB | 4.5–75V input, 3.3V fixed, 500mA output, 1MHz switching, SO-8 package | Lower current capability and higher switching frequency require smaller magnetics but increase EMI filtering burden | Select when board space is constrained and 500mA suffices; not suitable for 1A continuous loads. |
| TPS54340DDAR | 3.5–42V input, adjustable output, 3.5A output, 120–150kHz, SO-8 package | Higher current, lower max input voltage, requires external feedback resistors and compensation | Choose for designs needing >1A or adjustable VOUT; requires additional design effort for stability and layout. |
Compared with LM5008AMM/NOPB and TPS54340DDAR, the MAX5035AUPA offers superior 76V input tolerance and integrated 1A capability in a through-hole PDIP package-ideal for ruggedized, serviceable, or high-temperature deployments where SO-8 surface-mount alternatives face thermal or reliability constraints.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage supported by the MAX5035AUPA?
The MAX5035AUPA supports an absolute maximum input voltage of +80V, with guaranteed operation across 7.5V to 76V. This makes it suitable for 24V and 48V industrial systems and 12V automotive applications subject to load-dump transients. Operation above 76V is outside specification and may compromise reliability or safety margins.
Does the MAX5035AUPA require external compensation components?
No, the MAX5035AUPA includes internal frequency compensation optimized for stability with standard LC output filters. External compensation is not required, simplifying design and reducing bill-of-materials. The internal compensation network is tuned for use with typical 100µH inductors and 68µF output capacitors as shown in the MAX5035AUPA typical application circuit.
How does the MAX5035AUPA handle short-circuit conditions?
The MAX5035AUPA employs hiccup-mode short-circuit protection: upon detecting overcurrent, it shuts down the switch, waits for thermal recovery, then attempts restart. This prevents destructive power dissipation during sustained faults. The device limits peak switch current to 1.3–2.5A and triggers thermal shutdown if junction temperature exceeds +160°C.
Can the MAX5035AUPA be used with a 3.3V fixed output in automotive applications?
Yes, the MAX5035AUPA is rated for 0°C to +85°C operation and features built-in protections critical for automotive use-including undervoltage lockout, thermal shutdown, and hiccup-mode short-circuit response. Its 76V input rating accommodates ISO 7637-2 load-dump pulses, and the 8-pin PDIP package provides mechanical robustness for under-hood environments.
What external components are mandatory for basic MAX5035AUPA operation?
Mandatory external components for the MAX5035AUPA include: a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor between BST and LX; a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor from VD to GND; a low-ESR input capacitor (e.g., 68µF aluminum electrolytic); an output capacitor (e.g., 68µF tantalum); a 100µH power inductor; and a Schottky freewheeling diode (e.g., 50SQ100). No feedback resistors are needed for the fixed 3.3V MAX5035AUPA variant.
