Product details
Overview
MAX5035EASA+ from Maxim Integrated is a high-voltage, 76V-input, 1A step-down DC-DC converter with fixed 125kHz PWM operation and automatic pulse-skipping mode for light-load efficiency. It integrates a 0.4Ω high-side DMOS FET, internal frequency compensation, and delivers adjustable output (1.25V–13.2V) via FB pin. Used in automotive power supplies where wide VIN and low quiescent current (270µA no-load) are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MAX5035EASA+ datasheet, MAX5035EASA+ pinout, MAX5035EASA+ application, or MAX5035EASA+ equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, package-specific design meaning, automotive-grade thermal behavior (-40°C to +125°C), and real-world selection guidance for high-reliability industrial and vehicle subsystems.
Technical Context
The MAX5035EASA+ implements voltage-mode control with feed-forward compensation and an integrated high-side N-channel DMOS switch. Its 125kHz fixed-frequency PWM transitions to pulse-skipping below ~85mA load to maintain >85% efficiency at 10mA while holding IQ ≤ 460µA across full temperature range.
It features 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 BST capacitor charging. The FB pin regulates to 1.221V (±0.029V) with ±150nA bias current, enabling precise external resistor-set outputs from 1.25V to 13.2V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 7.5V to 76V - supports 24V/48V/72V industrial and automotive battery rails without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 1A continuous - limited by SO-package thermal resistance (170°C/W) and internal 1.9A peak switch current limit. |
| Quiescent Current | 270µA (typ) at no load - enables always-on subsystems with <1mW standby loss at 12V input. |
| Switch On-Resistance | 0.4Ω (typ) - reduces conduction loss and improves full-load efficiency up to 94% at 24V→12V/0.5A. |
| Feedback Voltage | 1.221V (±0.029V) - sets output accuracy for adjustable versions; enables ±1.5% VOUT tolerance with 1% resistors. |
| Shutdown Current | 10µA (typ) - allows deep-sleep states in battery-powered telematics modules. |
| Oscillator Frequency | 125kHz (109–137kHz over temp) - balances EMI control, inductor size, and transient response for 100µH designs. |
Pinout & Package
MAX5035EASA+ uses an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package rated for -40°C to +125°C operation. Thermal pad is not present; PCB copper pour under exposed pad area is recommended for heatsinking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - BST | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Must connect 0.1µF ceramic cap between BST and LX to drive high-side DMOS gate; failure causes startup failure or erratic switching. |
| 2 - VD | Internal regulator output | Provides ~7.8V bias for BST circuit; requires 0.1µF ceramic bypass to GND near pin to stabilize gate drive. |
| 3 - SGND | Signal ground reference | Internal analog ground node; must be tied directly to system GND plane - not isolated or star-point filtered. |
| 4 - FB | Output voltage feedback input | Senses divider voltage; regulates to 1.221V - sets VOUT = 1.221 × (1 + R3/R4); max 15kΩ R4 for noise immunity. |
| 5 - ON/OFF | Enable/shutdown control | Rising threshold 1.65V (typ); 100mV hysteresis prevents chatter; drives low (<0.8V) to enter 10µA shutdown state. |
| 6 - GND | Power ground return | Main return path for LX switch current and output capacitor discharge; must tie to same plane as SGND and rectifier cathode. |
| 7 - VIN | Main input supply | Accepts 7.5–76V; requires low-ESR input capacitor (e.g., 68µF aluminum + 1µF ceramic) placed within 5mm. |
| 8 - LX | Switch node | Connects to inductor and Schottky anode; carries high di/dt; layout must minimize loop area to reduce EMI and ringing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internal frequency compensation | Eliminates external compensation network - simplifies layout and ensures stable operation with standard 100µH inductors and 68µF output caps. |
| Pulse-skipping light-load mode | Maintains >85% efficiency at 10mA load while reducing IQ to 270µA - critical for always-on CAN bus nodes and sensor hubs. |
| Hiccup-mode short-circuit protection | Disables switching during sustained overload, then retries after cooldown - prevents thermal runaway during wiring faults in vehicle harnesses. |
| Automotive temperature grade | -40°C to +125°C junction rating with 170°C/W θJA - validated for engine bay and ADAS ECU mounting without derating. |
| Integrated 0.4Ω high-side DMOS | Reduces BOM count vs. controller-only solutions; eliminates gate driver design and MOSFET selection effort for 1A applications. |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) | Industrial Programmable Logic Controller (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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5017MMX/NOPB | 42V max input, 600mA output, 100–1000kHz adjustable frequency, no internal compensation. | Limited to lower-voltage industrial systems; requires external compensation components and higher-current external FET for 1A loads. | Choose LM5017MMX/NOPB only if 42V input ceiling is acceptable and board space allows added compensation network. |
| TPS54360DGQR | 60V max input, 3.5A output, 100–2500kHz adjustable frequency, integrated soft-start, no VD rail. | Higher current capability but lacks dedicated VD regulator for bootstrap stability at ultra-low duty cycles. | Select TPS54360DGQR when >1A output or programmable frequency is required, accepting larger solution size and missing VD rail. |
Compared with LM5017MMX/NOPB and TPS54360DGQR, the MAX5035EASA+ uniquely combines 76V input tolerance, internal compensation, and a dedicated VD regulator - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability automotive and rail applications where input transients exceed 60V and layout simplicity is critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage supported by the MAX5035EASA+?
The MAX5035EASA+ supports a maximum input voltage of 76V, with absolute maximum rating up to +80V on the VIN pin. This enables direct connection to 24V, 48V, and 72V battery systems including automotive load-dump conditions. Operation above 76V risks permanent damage, and the internal undervoltage lockout activates at 5.2V (typ) to prevent startup below safe operating thresholds.
How does the MAX5035EASA+ achieve adjustable output voltage?
The MAX5035EASA+ achieves adjustable output voltage using its FB pin, which regulates to a precise 1.221V reference. An external resistor divider (R3/R4) connects from VOUT to GND, with the midpoint fed to FB. For example, setting R4 = 13.3kΩ and R3 = 41.2kΩ yields 5.0V output. The MAX5035EASA+ datasheet specifies R4 ≤ 15kΩ for optimal noise immunity and bias current error control.
What package type and temperature range does the MAX5035EASA+ use?
The MAX5035EASA+ uses an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package with lead(Pb)-free/RoHS-compliant finish (+ suffix). It is rated for operation from -40°C to +125°C ambient temperature, meeting automotive AEC-Q100 stress test requirements. Its thermal resistance is 170°C/W (junction-to-ambient, JEDEC 51), requiring adequate PCB copper pour for 1A continuous operation at high ambient temperatures.
Does the MAX5035EASA+ require external compensation components?
No, the MAX5035EASA+ includes fully internal frequency compensation optimized for standard 100µH inductors and 68µF output capacitors. This eliminates external Type II or Type III compensation networks, reducing BOM count and layout sensitivity. The internal compensation ensures stable closed-loop bandwidth and phase margin across the full input/output/load/temperature range without user tuning.
What protection features are built into the MAX5035EASA+?
The MAX5035EASA+ integrates undervoltage lockout (5.2V typ), cycle-by-cycle current limiting (1.9A typ peak), hiccup-mode short-circuit protection, thermal shutdown at +160°C (20°C hysteresis), and BST overvoltage clamping. These features enable robust operation in harsh environments such as automotive engine compartments and industrial control cabinets without additional discrete protection circuitry.
