Product details
Overview
The MAX5035BUSA+ from Maxim Integrated is a high-voltage, 1A step-down DC-DC converter with fixed 5.0V output, operating from 7.5V to 76V input and delivering up to 90% efficiency at 12VIN/0.5AOUT. 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-ideal for automotive power rails and industrial distributed supplies.
For engineers reviewing the MAX5035BUSA+ datasheet, MAX5035BUSA+ pinout, MAX5035BUSA+ application, or MAX5035BUSA+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 5.0V ±2.5% output tolerance over 20mA–1A load, 270µA no-load quiescent current, automotive-grade SO-8 package (–40°C to +125°C), and integrated thermal shutdown/short-circuit protection.
Technical Context
This voltage-mode buck regulator uses feed-forward control and an internal high-side N-channel DMOS switch to maintain regulation across wide input ranges. Its fixed-frequency PWM operation transitions seamlessly into pulse-skipping mode below ~85mA load to reduce IQ without compromising stability.
The device implements undervoltage lockout (UVLO = 5.2V typ), cycle-by-cycle current limiting (ILIM = 1.9A typ), hiccup-mode short-circuit protection, and thermal shutdown at +160°C with +20°C hysteresis-enabling robust operation in harsh environments without external supervision circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 7.5V to 76V - supports wide-range industrial and automotive battery inputs including 24V/48V systems and unregulated rail dropouts. |
| Output Voltage | 5.0V ±2.5% (4.85V–5.15V) - tightly regulated fixed output suitable for powering microcontrollers, sensors, and logic interfaces. |
| Max Output Current | 1A continuous - limited by package thermal resistance (SO-8: θJA = 170°C/W); derates above +70°C ambient. |
| Switching Frequency | 125kHz (109–137kHz range) - enables use of compact 100µH inductors and reduces EMI compared to higher-frequency alternatives. |
| Quiescent Current | 270µA at no load - enables long-term battery operation in always-on systems such as telematics or remote sensors. |
| Shutdown Current | 10µA typ - ensures minimal standby drain when disabled via ON/OFF pin, critical for low-power wake-up architectures. |
| Internal High-Side RDS(ON) | 0.4Ω max - minimizes conduction loss and eliminates need for external MOSFET, reducing BOM count and layout complexity. |
Pinout & Package
MAX5035BUSA+ is housed in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package compliant with JEDEC MS-012, rated for –40°C to +125°C operation and RoHS-compliant (+ suffix).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - BST | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Connects 0.1µF ceramic cap between BST and LX to generate gate drive voltage for internal high-side DMOS switch. |
| 2 - VD | Internal regulator output | Provides ~7.8V regulated supply for gate driver; bypassed to GND with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor for stability. |
| 3 - SGND | Signal ground reference | Internal analog ground node; must be connected directly to system GND plane to avoid noise coupling into feedback path. |
| 4 - FB | Feedback sense input | Connected directly to VOUT for fixed 5V versions; senses 1.22V reference to regulate output voltage precisely. |
| 5 - ON/OFF | Enable/shutdown control | Logic-level input: <1.5V disables device (10µA ISHDN); >1.69V (typ) enables operation with 100mV hysteresis. |
| 6 - GND | Power ground return | Main power return path for LX switch and internal regulator; requires low-impedance star-ground connection near IC. |
| 7 - VIN | Main input supply | Accepts 7.5V–76V; requires local low-ESR bulk capacitor (e.g., 68µF) placed adjacent to pin to suppress ripple and EMI. |
| 8 - LX | Switch node | Drains internal high-side DMOS; connects to external inductor and Schottky freewheeling diode (e.g., 50SQ100). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated high-voltage DMOS switch | Eliminates external MOSFET, simplifies design, and ensures optimal gate-drive timing for 76V operation. |
| Internal frequency compensation | Enables stable loop response with only two external components (inductor + output cap), reducing design iteration time. |
| Pulse-skipping light-load mode | Maintains >85% efficiency down to 10mA load while holding IQ at 270µA-critical for intermittent-duty applications. |
| Hiccup-mode short-circuit protection | Automatically cycles on/off during sustained overload, preventing thermal runaway and enabling self-recovery without reset. |
| Thermal shutdown with hysteresis | Shuts down at +160°C junction temperature and resumes at +140°C, providing safe fault handling without external thermal sensors. |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module | Industrial PLC I/O Power |

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 | Fixed 5V output, 100V max input, 0.5A output, no integrated compensation, requires external soft-start. | Limited to lower current; lacks hiccup-mode protection and thermal hysteresis-requires additional fault management circuitry. | Choose LM5008AMM/NOPB only if input exceeds 76V or board space allows extra passive components for loop compensation. |
| TPS54360DGQR | Adjustable output (1.22V–60V), 60V max input, 3.5A output, integrated compensation, 100µA IQ. | Higher current capability but narrower input range; no automotive temp grade in standard version-requires external UVLO for 76V operation. | Prefer TPS54360DGQR when adjustable output or >1A load is needed, but verify thermal performance at 76V input and add external UVLO network. |
Compared with LM5008AMM/NOPB and TPS54360DGQR, the MAX5035BUSA+ delivers guaranteed 1A output at 76V input with built-in thermal hysteresis, hiccup protection, and automotive-grade SO-8 packaging-reducing validation effort and bill-of-materials count for ruggedized 5V POL designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the MAX5035BUSA+?
The MAX5035BUSA+ has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of +80V, with operational specification from 7.5V to 76V. This allows reliable use in 24V/48V industrial systems and automotive applications subject to load-dump transients up to 76V, as defined in ISO 7637-2. Exceeding 80V risks permanent damage.
Does the MAX5035BUSA+ require external compensation components?
No, the MAX5035BUSA+ features fully internal frequency compensation optimized for stability with standard external LC filters. The datasheet confirms no external compensation network is needed-only the recommended 100µH inductor and 68µF output capacitor are required for basic operation, significantly simplifying layout and qualification.
How does the MAX5035BUSA+ handle short-circuit conditions?
The MAX5035BUSA+ employs hiccup-mode short-circuit protection: upon detecting overcurrent, it shuts down the switch, waits a fixed interval, then attempts restart. If the fault persists, it repeats the cycle-limiting average power dissipation and preventing thermal runaway. This behavior is confirmed in the "Detailed Description" and "Thermal-Overload Protection" sections of the datasheet.
Can the MAX5035BUSA+ operate at full 1A output across its entire temperature range?
At +125°C ambient, the MAX5035BUSA+ SO-8 package's thermal resistance (θJA = 170°C/W) limits continuous 1A output due to junction temperature rise. Derating curves in the datasheet show usable output current drops to ~0.6A at +125°C. For full 1A operation across –40°C to +125°C, PCB copper area and airflow must be optimized per JEDEC 51 guidelines.
What is the purpose of the VD pin on the MAX5035BUSA+?
The VD pin on the MAX5035BUSA+ provides a regulated ~7.8V output used internally to drive the high-side DMOS gate and power analog circuitry. It must be bypassed to GND with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to stabilize the internal regulator and ensure consistent gate drive under varying load and input conditions-failure to do so causes erratic switching or startup failure.
