Datasheet
General Description
The MAX5066 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a two-phase,
dual-output buck converter with a 5V to 16V input volt-
age range. The MAX5066 EV kit provides dual 0.8V and
1.3V output voltages. It delivers up to 10A output cur-
rent for each output with 90% efficiency. The MAX5066
EV kit uses average current-mode control and operates
at 500kHz switching frequency per phase where each
phase is 180° out-of-phase with respect to the other.
This EV kit is a fully assembled and tested circuit
board. Both outputs are adjustable between 0.61V and
5.5V by changing feedback resistors R4, R5, R6, and
R7. Additional features include thermal-shutdown and
“hiccup-mode” short-circuit protection.
Features
♦ 5V to 16V Input Voltage Range (Design Optimized
for 12V Input)
♦ Output Voltages
0.8V at 10A (Adjustable from 0.61V to 5.5V)
1.3V at 10A (Adjustable from 0.61V to 5.5V)
♦ 500kHz Switching Frequency
♦ Both Outputs Can be Paralleled for Higher
Current Capability (Using Mode Function)
♦ Average Current-Mode Control Provides Accurate
Current Limit
♦ Current-Sharing Accuracy within ±5% Between
Parallel Channels
♦ 180° Interleaved Operation Reduces Size of Input
Filter Capacitors
♦ Overtemperature Shutdown
♦ Excellent Line- and Load-Transient Response
♦ Hiccup-Mode Overcurrent Protection
♦ Can be Synchronized to an External Clock
♦ Low-Profile Components
♦ Fully Assembled and Tested
