Product details
Overview
The MAX5035BUSA+T from Maxim Integrated is a high-voltage, 1A step-down DC-DC converter with fixed 5V 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. Used in automotive power supplies where wide VIN and low quiescent current (270µA no-load) are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MAX5035BUSA+T datasheet, MAX5035BUSA+T pinout, MAX5035BUSA+T application, or MAX5035BUSA+T equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range (7.5–76V), fixed 5V output tolerance (±2.5%), thermal shutdown at +160°C, and SO-8 package compatibility with automotive temperature range (0°C to +85°C).
Technical Context
This voltage-mode buck regulator uses feed-forward control and an internal high-side N-channel DMOS switch to maintain regulation across a 10:1 input voltage range. Its fixed-frequency PWM operation transitions automatically to pulse-skipping mode below ~85mA load to reduce IQ to 270µA.
Protection features include cycle-by-cycle current limiting (1.9A typ peak switch current), hiccup-mode short-circuit response, undervoltage lockout (5.2V typ), and thermal shutdown with 20°C hysteresis. The device requires external Schottky diode (e.g., 50SQ100) and 100µH inductor for full implementation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 7.5V to 76V - supports 12V/24V/48V industrial and automotive battery systems with transient tolerance up to 80V. |
| Output Voltage | 5.0V ±2.5% - tightly regulated fixed output suitable for powering microcontrollers, sensors, and interface ICs. |
| Max Output Current | 1A - limited by thermal dissipation in SO-8 package (471mW @ +70°C, θJA = 170°C/W). |
| Switching Frequency | 125kHz (109–137kHz range) - enables use of compact magnetics while minimizing EMI in sensitive applications. |
| Quiescent Current | 270µA at no load - enables always-on functionality in battery-backed systems without rapid drain. |
| Shutdown Current | 10µA typ - allows deep sleep states via ON/OFF pin control for system-level power management. |
| Internal High-Side FET RDS(ON) | 0.4Ω max - reduces conduction loss and eliminates need for external high-voltage MOSFET. |
Pinout & Package
MAX5035BUSA+T is housed in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package, RoHS-compliant and lead-free (+T suffix), rated for 0°C to +85°C ambient operation. Thermal pad is not present; PCB copper pour on GND pins aids heatsinking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BST | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Provides gate drive voltage for internal high-side DMOS; requires 0.1µF ceramic cap between BST and LX. |
| VD | Internal regulator output | Supplies bias for gate driver; bypassed to GND with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. |
| SGND | Signal ground reference | Internal analog ground node; must be connected directly to system GND plane. |
| FB | Feedback input | Connected directly to VOUT for fixed 5V operation; internal 1.22V reference sets regulation point. |
| ON/OFF | Enable/shutdown control | Logic-high (>1.69V) enables operation; logic-low disables switching and reduces IQ to 10µA. |
| GND | Power ground | Main return path for high-current switch node and regulator; tied to SGND externally. |
| VIN | Main input supply | Accepts 7.5–76V; requires local low-ESR bulk capacitance (e.g., 68µF aluminum + 0.1µF ceramic). |
| LX | Switch node | Drives external Schottky diode cathode and inductor; high dv/dt node requiring tight layout. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 0.4Ω high-voltage DMOS FET | Eliminates external high-side switch, reducing BOM count and PCB area in high-input-voltage buck designs. |
| Internal frequency compensation | Enables stable operation with minimal external components-no loop compensation network required. |
| Pulse-skipping light-load mode | Maintains >85% efficiency down to 1mA load, critical for intermittent-sensing applications. |
| Hiccup-mode short-circuit protection | Prevents thermal runaway during sustained output faults by cycling ON/OFF until fault clears. |
| Automotive-grade SO-8 package | Validated for 0°C to +85°C operation with JEDEC moisture sensitivity level 1-suitable for under-hood environments. |

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, 500mA output, 1MHz switching, no integrated bootstrap circuit. | Lower output current and higher fSW limit use in space-constrained but lower-power applications; requires external bootstrap diode/cap. | Select when 500mA suffices and board area is premium; avoid if 1A or 76V+ operation required. |
| TPS54360DDAR | Adjustable output (1.22–60V), 60V max input, 3.5A output, 100kHz–2.5MHz sync capability, integrated soft-start. | Higher current and adjustable VOUT support flexible multi-rail designs; lacks automotive temp grade in base variant. | Choose for scalable 3.5A designs needing programmable output; verify -40°C to +125°C qualification for automotive use. |
Compared with LM5008AMM/NOPB and TPS54360DDAR, the MAX5035BUSA+T offers superior 1A output in automotive-temp SO-8 at 76V max input, with integrated bootstrap and fixed 5V-ideal for cost-sensitive, high-reliability 5V rail generation where simplicity and ruggedness outweigh programmability.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the MAX5035BUSA+T?
The MAX5035BUSA+T has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of +80V, with continuous operation specified from 7.5V to 76V. Operation beyond 76V is not guaranteed and may trigger internal protection circuits. The device is designed to withstand automotive load-dump transients up to 80V for short durations per ISO 7637-2.
Does the MAX5035BUSA+T require external compensation components?
No, the MAX5035BUSA+T includes internal frequency compensation optimized for stability with standard external components. No external compensation network is needed-only the required BST and VD bypass capacitors (0.1µF each), input/output bulk capacitors, inductor, and Schottky diode must be added per the typical application circuit.
How does the MAX5035BUSA+T handle short-circuit conditions on its output?
The MAX5035BUSA+T employs hiccup-mode short-circuit protection: when output current exceeds the cycle-by-cycle limit (~1.9A), the device shuts down for ~30ms, then attempts restart. This prevents thermal runaway and excessive power dissipation during sustained faults, allowing safe recovery once the short is removed.
Can the MAX5035BUSA+T be used in automotive applications requiring -40°C to +125°C operation?
No-the MAX5035BUSA+T is rated for 0°C to +85°C ambient operation. For automotive under-hood applications, use the MAX5035BASA/V+ variant, which is qualified for -40°C to +125°C and carries the /V+ automotive qualification marking. The "USA" suffix denotes commercial-temperature SO-8 packaging.
What external components are mandatory for basic operation of the MAX5035BUSA+T?
Mandatory external components for the MAX5035BUSA+T include: a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor between BST and LX; a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor from VD to GND; a Schottky rectifier (e.g., 50SQ100); a 100µH power inductor; input bulk capacitance (e.g., 68µF aluminum + 0.1µF ceramic); and output capacitance (e.g., 68µF tantalum). FB is connected directly to VOUT for fixed 5V operation.
