works well in most applications. Figure 7 shows the
power-good and fault-protection circuitry.
When the internal feedback voltage rises 300mV above
the target voltage and OVP is enabled, the OVP compara-
tor immediately forces LX low, pulls PGOOD low, sets the
fault latch, and disables the SMPS controller. Toggle EN

latch and restart the controller.
When the feedback voltage drops 200mV below the
target voltage (REFIN), the controller immediately pulls
PGOOD low and triggers a 200μs one-shot timer. If the
feedback voltage remains below the undervoltage fault
threshold for the entire 200μs, the undervoltage fault
latch is set and the SMPS begins the shutdown
sequence. When the internal target voltage drops
below 0.1V, the MAX15035 forces a high impedance on
LX. Toggle EN or cycle V

The MAX15035 features a thermal fault-protection cir-
cuit. When the junction temperature rises above
+160°C, a thermal sensor activates the fault latch, pulls
PGOOD low, shuts down the controller, and forces a

Firmly establish the input voltage range and maximum
load current before choosing a switching frequency and
inductor operating point (ripple-current ratio). The prima-
ry design trade-off lies in choosing a good switching fre-
quency and inductor operating point, and the following
four factors dictate the rest of the design:
•
•
Maximum load current: There are two values to
consider. The peak load current (I
determines the instantaneous component stresses
and filtering requirements, and thus drives output
capacitor selection, inductor saturation rating, and
the design of the current-limit circuit. The continu-
ous load current (I
stresses and thus drives the selection of input
capacitors, MOSFETs, and other critical heat-con-
tributing components.
Switching frequency: This choice determines the
basic trade-off between size and efficiency. The
optimal frequency is largely a function of maximum
input voltage due to MOSFET switching losses that
are proportional to frequency and V
mum frequency is also a moving target, due to
rapid improvements in MOSFET technology that are
making higher frequencies more practical.
