Product details
Overview
MAX5035DUSA+ from Maxim Integrated is a high-voltage, adjustable-output step-down DC-DC converter with 7.5V–76V input range, 1.25V–13.2V output adjustability, 1A output current capability, and internal 0.4Ω high-side DMOS FET. It delivers up to 94% efficiency at 24VIN/0.5A/12VOUT, operates over –40°C to +125°C, and targets automotive power conversion in battery-supplied systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX5035DUSA+ datasheet, MAX5035DUSA+ pinout, MAX5035DUSA+ application, or MAX5035DUSA+ equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed automotive-grade thermal behavior, and real-world design implications for high-input-voltage buck regulation.
Technical Context
The MAX5035DUSA+ uses voltage-mode PWM control with feed-forward compensation and fixed 125kHz switching frequency (109–137kHz over temp), automatically transitioning to pulse-skipping mode below ~85mA load to maintain 270µA no-load quiescent current. Its integrated high-side DMOS switch eliminates external MOSFET requirements while enabling operation up to 76V input.
It features internal frequency compensation, undervoltage lockout (5.2V typ), hiccup-mode short-circuit protection, thermal shutdown at +160°C (20°C hysteresis), and a dedicated VD regulator (7.8V typ) for bootstrap gate drive. The FB pin regulates at 1.221V (1.192–1.250V) for precise output setting via external resistor divider.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 7.5V to 76V - supports wide automotive battery transients including cold-crank (≥6V) and load-dump (≤80V absolute max). |
| Output Voltage Range | 1.25V to 13.2V - adjustable via external resistive divider; FB reference = 1.221V ±0.029V ensures ±1.2% output accuracy at full load. |
| Max Output Current | 1A - limited by package thermal resistance (SO: 170°C/W); derates above +70°C ambient per 5.9mW/°C. |
| Quiescent Current | 270µA (typ) at no load - enables always-on subsystems in automotive ECUs without excessive battery drain. |
| Switching Frequency | 125kHz (109–137kHz) - balances EMI control, inductor size, and efficiency; fixed-frequency simplifies EMI filter design. |
| Internal High-Side FET RDS(ON) | 0.4Ω (typ) - reduces conduction loss and eliminates external high-voltage MOSFET, lowering BOM count and layout complexity. |
| Thermal Shutdown | +160°C junction temperature with +140°C restart hysteresis - protects against sustained overload or poor heatsinking in enclosed automotive modules. |
Pinout & Package
MAX5035DUSA+ is housed in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package, RoHS-compliant and lead(Pb)-free (+ suffix), rated for –40°C to +125°C operation. Thermal resistance θJA = 170°C/W (JEDEC 51).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BST | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Connects 0.1µF ceramic cap between BST and LX to generate gate drive voltage for internal high-side DMOS; critical for proper startup and continuous conduction. |
| VD | Internal regulator output | Provides ~7.8V regulated supply for gate driver; must be bypassed to GND with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to stabilize bootstrap charging. |
| SGND | Signal ground reference | Internal analog ground node; must be connected directly to system GND plane-separate from power ground traces to minimize noise coupling. |
| FB | Feedback input | Senses output voltage via external resistor divider; regulates to 1.221V; bias current <±150nA minimizes divider error in precision applications. |
| ON/OFF | Shutdown control input | Logic-level enable: <1.5V = shutdown (10µA ISHDN), >1.69V = active; 100mV hysteresis prevents chatter during slow-rising VIN or UVLO transitions. |
| GND | Power ground return | Main return path for switch current and output capacitor; must connect to low-impedance star ground point near LX and rectifier anode. |
| 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 to suppress high di/dt ripple. |
| LX | Switch node | Drain of internal high-side DMOS; connects to inductor and Schottky rectifier cathode; high dv/dt node requiring tight layout and minimal trace area. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated high-voltage DMOS switch | 0.4Ω RDS(ON) enables single-chip 76V buck conversion without external MOSFET, reducing solution size and gate-drive complexity. |
| Automotive temperature grade | –40°C to +125°C operation with guaranteed performance and thermal shutdown at +160°C ensures reliability in engine bay and under-hood environments. |
| Pulse-skipping light-load mode | Reduces IQ to 270µA at no load while maintaining regulation-critical for always-on telematics, ADAS sensors, and infotainment standby circuits. |
| Internal frequency compensation | Eliminates external compensation network; allows stable operation with standard LC output filters and simplifies design validation across input/output conditions. |
| Hiccup-mode short-circuit protection | Disables switching during output short, then retries after cooldown-prevents thermal runaway and enables safe recovery without manual reset. |
| Adjustable output via FB pin | 1.221V feedback reference with ±0.029V tolerance supports accurate 1.25V–13.2V outputs using standard 1% resistors, suitable for diverse MCU core and peripheral rail needs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5164QDDARQ1 | 4.5V–65V input, 1A, 100kHz–1MHz adjustable frequency, requires external MOSFETs and compensation. | Higher frequency flexibility but larger solution size; lacks integrated VD regulator and internal compensation. | Choose LM5164QDDARQ1 when programmable frequency or higher VIN margin beyond 65V is unnecessary and external FET control is preferred. |
| TPS54160AQPWPRQ1 | 3.5V–60V input, 1.5A, 100kHz–2.5MHz sync capability, integrated compensation, but no internal VD regulator. | Higher current rating but narrower input range; requires external bootstrap circuitry for high-side gate drive. | Choose TPS54160AQPWPRQ1 for designs needing >1A output or tighter EMI control via synchronization, accepting added external components. |
Compared with MAX5035DUSA+, LM5164QDDARQ1 offers frequency agility at the cost of increased layout complexity and missing integrated gate drive, while TPS54160AQPWPRQ1 trades input voltage headroom for higher current and sync capability-neither matches the MAX5035DUSA+'s combination of 76V rating, internal VD, and fully compensated 8-pin SO simplicity.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the MAX5035DUSA+ can withstand?
The MAX5035DUSA+ has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of +80V, with recommended continuous operation up to +76V. It is designed to survive automotive load-dump transients and remains functional across its full –40°C to +125°C temperature range at these voltages. Exceeding +80V risks permanent damage per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
How do I set the output voltage for the MAX5035DUSA+?
The MAX5035DUSA+ uses the FB pin to regulate output voltage via an external resistor divider. With a feedback reference of 1.221V, set VOUT = 1.221 × (1 + R1/R2). For example, R1 = 41.2kΩ and R2 = 13.3kΩ yields 5.0V. Keep R2 ≤15kΩ to limit bias current error, and use 1% tolerance resistors for ±1.2% output accuracy.
Does the MAX5035DUSA+ require external compensation components?
No, the MAX5035DUSA+ includes internal frequency compensation optimized for stability with standard LC output filters. No external compensation network is needed-this simplifies design, reduces BOM count, and ensures consistent loop response across input/output conditions without tuning.
What protection features does the MAX5035DUSA+ include?
The MAX5035DUSA+ integrates undervoltage lockout (5.2V typ), cycle-by-cycle current limiting, hiccup-mode short-circuit protection, thermal shutdown at +160°C (with +140°C restart hysteresis), and 10µA shutdown current. These features ensure robust operation during faults without external supervision circuitry.
Can the MAX5035DUSA+ operate in pulse-skipping mode, and how does it affect efficiency?
Yes, the MAX5035DUSA+ automatically enters pulse-skipping mode below ~85mA load to reduce switching losses. This lowers quiescent current to 270µA (typ) at no load and maintains >80% efficiency down to 1mA output, making it ideal for always-on automotive subsystems where standby power is critical.
