Product details
Overview
MAX5035DASA+ from Maxim Integrated is a high-voltage, adjustable-output step-down DC-DC converter with 7.5V–76V input range, 1A output current capability, and internal 0.4Ω high-side DMOS FET. It operates at fixed 125kHz PWM mode and auto-switches to pulse-skipping for light-load efficiency, delivering up to 90% efficiency at 12VIN/5VOUT/0.5A in automotive power systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX5035DASA+ datasheet, MAX5035DASA+ pinout, MAX5035DASA+ application, or MAX5035DASA+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its adjustable 1.25V–13.2V output, 270µA no-load quiescent current, automotive-grade −40°C to +125°C operation, and integrated thermal shutdown and hiccup-mode short-circuit protection.
Technical Context
The MAX5035DASA+ employs voltage-mode control with feed-forward compensation and an internal high-side N-channel DMOS switch, eliminating external gate-drive components. Its BST pin enables bootstrap gate drive using a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor between BST and LX, supporting efficient high-side switching across the full 76V input range.
It integrates undervoltage lockout (5.2V typ), cycle-by-cycle current limiting (1.3–2.5A), thermal shutdown (+160°C trip), and a dedicated VD regulator (7.8V typ) for internal biasing. The FB pin regulates output via a resistive divider with 1.221V feedback reference, enabling precise 1.25V–13.2V adjustment independent of input or load variations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 7.5V to 76V - supports wide industrial and automotive battery rails including 12V, 24V, 48V, and 72V systems without external pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage Range | Adjustable 1.25V to 13.2V - set via external resistor divider on FB pin; VFB = 1.221V (typ) provides ±1.5% output accuracy over temperature and line. |
| Max Output Current | 1A continuous - limited by package thermal dissipation (SO-8, θJA = 170°C/W); derates above +70°C ambient. |
| Quiescent Current | 270µA (typ) at no load - enables always-on subsystems in automotive infotainment and telematics with minimal standby drain. |
| Switching Frequency | Fixed 125kHz (109–137kHz over temp) - balances EMI, inductor size, and efficiency; eliminates need for external frequency programming. |
| Shutdown Current | 10µA (typ) - reduces system-level power consumption during deep sleep modes in battery-backed applications. |
| Internal High-Side FET RDS(ON) | 0.4Ω (typ) - minimizes conduction loss and eliminates external MOSFET, reducing BOM count and PCB area. |
Pinout & Package
MAX5035DASA+ is housed in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package with gull-wing leads, RoHS-compliant and lead(Pb)-free (+ suffix), rated for −40°C to +125°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BST | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Provides gate drive voltage for internal high-side DMOS; requires 0.1µF ceramic cap to LX for reliable startup and continuous operation. |
| VD | Internal regulator output | Supplies ~7.8V bias for internal circuitry; must be bypassed to GND with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to stabilize regulation. |
| SGND | Signal ground reference | Internal analog ground node; must be connected directly to system GND plane to maintain feedback accuracy and noise immunity. |
| FB | Feedback input | Senses output voltage via external resistor divider; regulates to 1.221V reference - sets VOUT = 1.221 × (1 + R3/R4). |
| ON/OFF | Enable/shutdown control | Logic-level input: >1.69V (typ) enables operation; <1.53V disables; 100mV hysteresis prevents chatter near threshold. |
| GND | Power ground | Main return path for high-current switch node; must be low-impedance and star-connected to SGND and output capacitor ground. |
| VIN | Main input supply | Accepts 7.5V–76V; requires local low-ESR input capacitor (e.g., 68µF aluminum + 0.1µF ceramic) placed adjacent to pin. |
| LX | Switch node | Drives external Schottky diode (e.g., 50SQ100); connects to inductor and BST capacitor; carries high di/dt switching current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated high-voltage DMOS switch | Eliminates external MOSFET and driver, reducing solution size and component count while maintaining 0.4Ω RDS(ON) performance at 76VIN. |
| Internal frequency compensation | Enables stable loop response with no external compensation network - simplifies design and improves time-to-market for buck regulators. |
| Pulse-skipping light-load mode | Maintains >85% efficiency down to 1mA load by skipping PWM cycles, critical for automotive modules with variable duty-cycle wake/sleep states. |
| Hiccup-mode short-circuit protection | Shuts down on overload, cools, then retries - prevents thermal runaway and enables self-recovery in field-deployed industrial controllers. |
| Automotive-grade temperature range | −40°C to +125°C junction operation ensures reliability in engine bay, ADAS, and under-hood electronics without derating. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5017MH/NOPB | 4.5V–75V input, 1A, adjustable 1.215V–60V output; requires external compensation; no integrated VD regulator. | Higher max output voltage capability but lacks internal bias rail - needs external LDO for gate drive or analog circuitry. | Select LM5017MH/NOPB when >13.2V output or higher VIN margin (75V vs. 76V) is required; accept added compensation complexity. |
| TPS54160DGQ | 3.5V–60V input, 1.5A, adjustable 0.8V–60V; 2.5µA shutdown current; no integrated high-side FET driver bootstrap circuit. | Lower max input voltage limits use in 72V+ systems; requires external bootstrap diode/capacitor network unlike MAX5035DASA+'s integrated BST. | Choose TPS54160DGQ for ultra-low shutdown current or higher output current; verify 60V VIN limit suffices for target application. |
Compared with LM5017MH/NOPB and TPS54160DGQ, the MAX5035DASA+ uniquely integrates both a 76V-rated high-side DMOS and a dedicated VD bias regulator, enabling simpler, more robust designs in automotive and industrial 48V–72V systems where board space and reliability are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the MAX5035DASA+?
The MAX5035DASA+ has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of +80V, with recommended continuous operation up to +76V. This allows safe operation across automotive load-dump transients (up to +87V per ISO 7637-2) when combined with appropriate input clamping. The device enters undervoltage lockout below 5.2V (typ), ensuring clean startup after brownout events.
How do I configure the output voltage for the MAX5035DASA+?
The MAX5035DASA+ features an adjustable output voltage set via a resistive divider from VOUT to GND, with the midpoint connected to the FB pin. Using the formula VOUT = 1.221V × (1 + R3/R4), select R4 ≤ 15kΩ and calculate R3 accordingly. For example, to achieve 5V output, use R4 = 13.3kΩ and R3 = 41.2kΩ. The MAX5035DASA+ regulates precisely to the 1.221V internal reference.
Does the MAX5035DASA+ require external compensation components?
No, the MAX5035DASA+ includes fully internal frequency compensation optimized for stability with standard external LC filter components. No external Type II or Type III compensation network is needed - simply connect the recommended 100µH inductor and 68µF output capacitor as specified in the typical application circuit. This simplifies layout and eliminates tuning iterations during prototyping.
What protection features are built into the MAX5035DASA+?
The MAX5035DASA+ integrates multiple hardware-based protections: undervoltage lockout (UVLO) at 5.2V (typ), cycle-by-cycle peak current limiting (1.3–2.5A), hiccup-mode short-circuit response, thermal shutdown at +160°C with +20°C hysteresis, and input overvoltage tolerance up to +80V. These operate independently of external control, ensuring fail-safe behavior under fault conditions without firmware dependency.
Can the MAX5035DASA+ operate in pulse-skipping mode, and how does it affect efficiency?
Yes, the MAX5035DASA+ automatically transitions from fixed-frequency PWM to pulse-skipping mode below ~85mA load current. This reduces switching losses and maintains >85% efficiency down to 1mA, significantly improving light-load performance compared to forced-PWM alternatives. Quiescent current remains at 270µA (typ) in this mode, making it ideal for always-on automotive modules.
