4.5V to 40V Input Automotive
Flyback/Boost/SEPIC Power-Supply Controllers
General Description
The MAX15004A/B/MAX15005A/B high-performance,
current-mode PWM controllers operate at an automo-
tive input voltage range from 4.5V to 40V (load dump).
The input voltage can go down as low as 2.5V after
startup if V
CC
is supplied by an external bias voltage.
The controllers integrate all the building blocks neces-
sary for implementing fixed-frequency isolated/noniso-
lated power supplies. The general-purpose boost,
flyback, forward, and SEPIC converters can be
designed with ease around the MAX15004/MAX15005.
The current-mode control architecture offers excellent
line-transient response and cycle-by-cycle current limit
while simplifying the frequency compensation.
Programmable slope compensation simplifies the
design further. A fast 60ns current-limit response time,
low 300mV current-limit threshold makes the controllers
suitable for high-efficiency, high-frequency DC-DC con-
verters. The devices include an internal error amplifier
and 1% accurate reference to facilitate the primary-side
regulated, single-ended flyback converter or nonisolat-
ed converters.
An external resistor and capacitor network programs
the switching frequency from 15kHz to 500kHz (1MHz for
the MAX15005A/B). The MAX15004A/B/MAX15005A/B
provide a SYNC input for synchronization to an external
clock. The maximum FET-driver duty cycle for the
MAX15004A/B is 50%. The maximum duty cycle can be
set on the MAX15005A/B by selecting the right combi-
nation of RT and CT.
The input undervoltage lockout (ON/OFF) programs the
input-supply startup voltage and can be used to shut-
down the converter to reduce the total shutdown cur-
rent down to 10µA. Protection features include
cycle-by-cycle and hiccup current limit, output overvolt-
age protection, and thermal shutdown.
The MAX15004A/B/MAX15005A/B are available in
space-saving 16-pin TSSOP and thermally enhanced
16-pin TSSOP-EP packages. All devices operate over
the -40°C to +125°C automotive temperature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
