4V to 72V Input LDOs with Boost Preregulator
Features
The MAX5092A/MAX5092B/MAX5093A/MAX5093B lowquiescent-current, low-dropout (LDO) regulators contain
simple boost preregulators operating at a high frequency.
The devices seamlessly provide a preset 3.3V
(MAX5092A/MAX5093A) or 5V (MAX5092B/MAX5093B)
LDO output voltage from an automotive cold-crank
through load-dump (3.5V to 80V) input voltage conditions. The MAX5092_/MAX5093_ deliver up to 250mA
with excellent load and line regulation. During normal
operation, when the battery is healthy, the boost preregulator is completely turned off, reducing quiescent current
to 65µA (typ). This makes the devices suitable for
always-on power supplies.
The buck-boost operation achieved by this combination
of LDO and boost preregulator offers the advantage of
using a single off-the-shelf inductor in place of the multiple-winding custom magnetics needed in typical single-ended primary inductor converter (SEPIC) and
transformer-based flyback topologies. The high operating frequency of the boost regulator significantly
reduces component size. The MAX5092_ integrates a
blocking diode to further reduce the external component count. The boost preregulator output voltage is
preset to 7V. Both LDO and boost output voltages are
programmable using external resistors. The boost preregulator output voltage is adjustable up to 11V
(MAX5092_), or up to 12V (MAX5093_). The LDO output
voltage is adjustable from 1.5V to 9V (MAX5092_) or
from 1.5V to 10V (MAX5093_).
The devices feature a shutdown mode with 5µA (typ)
shutdown current, a HOLD input to implement a self-holding circuit, and a power-on-reset output (RESET) with an
externally programmable timeout period. Additional features include output overload, short-circuit, and thermal
protection.
The MAX5092_/MAX5093_ are available in a thermally
enhanced, 16-pin 5mm x 5mm thin QFN package and
can dissipate up to 2.7W at +70°C on a multilayer PC
board (PCB).

Limits at -40°C are guaranteed by design and characterization; not production tested.
Guaranteed minimum operating voltage is 3.5V on VIN falling only.
Guaranteed by design and not production tested.
The boost converter disable threshold (VBST_DIS) is a static measurement. Internal comparator delay may cause a higher
disable level.
Note 6: The continuous maximum output current from the LDO is guaranteed according to the maximum power dissipation imposed
by the package thermal constraints.
Note 7: Maximum output adjustable value is conditioned by the maximum adjustable BSOUT Output Voltage Range minus the maximum dropout across the pass transistor.
Note 8: Dropout voltage is defined as (VBSOUT - VOUT) when VOUT is 2% below the value of VOUT for VBSOUT = VOUT + 2V.

MAX5092/MAX5093
4V to 72V Input LDOs with Boost Preregulator
Detailed Description
The MAX5092A/MAX5092B/MAX5093A/MAX5093B
include a step-up, switch-mode DC-DC converter and a
linear regulator to provide step-up/-down voltage conversion over a wide range of input voltages. This combination of an LDO and a boost converter offers the
advantage of using a single off-the-shelf inductor in
place of the multiple-winding custom magnetics needed
in typical SEPIC or transformer-based flyback topologies. The boost preregulator is completely turned off
during normal automotive operation (V IN = 14V),
reduces quiescent current to 65µA (typ), and makes the
devices suitable for always-on power supplies.
The devices have an internal UVLO threshold of 3.8V
(max, VIN rising) that must be exceeded before the
device is enabled. When VIN is above VUVLO, the internal boost converter starts switching and regulates
VBSOUT to the programmed boost output voltage. The
low quiescent-current LDO steps down VBSOUT to the
programmed LDO output voltage. The LDO output is
preset to 3.3V (MAX5092A/MAX5093A) or 5V
(MAX5092B/MAX5093B). Both output voltages can be
adjusted by using external resistor-dividers.
If (VBSOUT - VOUT) rises above 2.5V (typ), the boost converter is disabled, forcing V BSOUT to follow V IN . If
VBSOUT - VOUT falls below 2V (typ), the boost converter
starts switching and regulates V BSOUT to the programmed voltage. The boost converter regulates
VBSOUT for VIN down to 3.5V, providing uninterrupted
operation during low cold-crank voltages even if the programmed LDO output voltage is greater than VIN (but
less than 9V). The boost converter turn-on response time
is less than 10µs, making cold-crank input glitches transparent to the system even at full load.
The boost-converter output is followed by a high PSRR,
low-quiescent-current LDO. The LDO rejects the
switching noise present at BSOUT and provides a
clean, regulated output voltage. The linear regulator
uses an internal p-channel MOSFET pass element.
Additional features include a power-on-reset function
with an externally adjustable timeout, an enable (EN)
input, and a hold (HOLD) regulator control input.
Boost Converter
The switch-mode converter uses a minimum off-time,
maximum on-time pulse frequency modulation (PFM)
control scheme. The internal MOSFET turns on whenever VBSOUT falls below the regulation point determined
by VBSFB (see the Setting the Boost Output Voltage
12
(VBSOUT) section). The MOSFET turns off when the
inductor current reaches the peak current limit (2.5A
typ) or after 2.25µs maximum on-time, whichever
occurs first. The MOSFET is held off for at least 1µs
after the turn-on phase. A new switching cycle initiates
once VBSOUT falls below the threshold. In this control
scheme, switching frequency and output ripple are
functions of load current and input voltage. No frequency compensation is needed in the PFM control scheme.
The output of the boost converter is preset to 7V and is
adjustable by using external resistors. See the Setting
the Boost Output Voltage VBSOUT section.
If V BSOUT is programmed greater than (V OUT +
VBST_DIS), larger ripple is observed on BSOUT. The reason is as VBSOUT rises above VOUT + VBST_DIS, the
boost converter is disabled, causing VBSOUT to fall. As
VBSOUT falls to VOUT + VBST_EN, the boost converter
turns back on, and VBSOUT rises. For the lowest VBSOUT
ripple, program VBSOUT within the boost disable threshold. See the Typical Operating Characteristics for the
Switching Waveforms.
Due to the integrated blocking diode in the MAX5092_,
VBSOUT is limited to 11V. Use the MAX5093_ for higher
boost output voltages (or to reduce the power dissipation in to the package). The MAX5093_ requires an
external diode for the boost converter. Select the external diode according to the Schottky Diode Selection
(MAX5093_) section.
Linear Regulator
The MAX5092_/MAX5093_ contain an internal p-channel MOSFET used as the pass transistor for the LDO.
The output of the boost regulator is connected to the
source of the p-MOSFET. The LDO starts up 200µs
after the boost regulator starts up. The LDO supplies
up to 250mA with a typical dropout voltage of 0.9V. The
maximum LDO output current is determined by the
package power-dissipation limit as well as the internal
current limit. The LDO is designed to be a low-quiescent-current type. During normal operation when the
battery voltage is > 9V, the MAX5092_/MAX5093_ consume only 75µA (max) at +85°C and 100µA load.
The output voltage of the LDO is set using the SET
input. Connect SET to SGND to use the factory-preset
output voltage. Connect SET to the center of an external resistor-divider connected from OUT to SGND to
program a different output voltage. See the Setting the
LDO Output Voltage (VOUT) section.
______________________________________________________________________________________
4V to 72V Input LDOs with Boost Preregulator
Enable and Hold Inputs
The MAX5092_/MAX5093_ utilize two logic inputs, EN
(active-high) and HOLD (active low), to implement a
self-holding circuit with no additional components. For
example, an automotive ignition switch drives EN high
and the regulator turns on. If HOLD is then driven low,
the regulator remains on even if EN goes low. As long
as HOLD is forced low and remains low after initial regulator power-up, the regulator remains on. From this
state, release HOLD (an internal current source connects HOLD to OUT), or connect HOLD to OUT to turn
the regulator off. Drive EN low and HOLD high to place
the IC into shutdown mode. Shutdown mode reduces
supply current to 5µA. Figure 3 shows the timing diagram for the enable and hold functions. Table 1 shows
the state of the regulator output with respect to the voltage level at EN and HOLD with reference to Figure 3.
Connect HOLD to OUT or leave unconnected to disable the hold feature and use EN as a standard on/off
control input.
Power-On-Reset Output (RESET)
The MAX5092_/MAX5093_ contain an open-drain output
(RESET) that indicates when the LDO output (VOUT) is
out of regulation. If the output of the LDO falls below 90%
of the nominal output voltage, RESET pulls low after a
short delay. Once the output rises above 92% of the
nominal output voltage, RESET goes high impedance
after the programmed reset timeout period. Connect a
100kΩ pullup resistor from OUT to RESET. See the CT
Capacitor Selection section for details on setting the
RESET timeout period.

Applications Information (continued)
MAX5092/MAX5093
4V to 72V Input LDOs with Boost Preregulator
Design Guidelines
Input Capacitor (CIN) and
Boost Capacitor (CBSOUT) Selection
The input current waveform of the boost converter is
continuous, and usually does not demand high capacitance at its input. However, the MAX5092_/MAX5093_
boost converter is designed to fully turn on as soon as
the input drops below a certain voltage in order to ride
out cold-crank droops. This operation demands low
input source impedance for proper operation. If the
source (battery) is located far from the IC, high-capacity, low-ESR capacitors are recommended for CIN. The
worst-case peak capacitor current could be as high as
3A. Use a 47µF, 100mΩ low-ESR capacitor placed as
close as possible to the input of the device. Note that
the aluminum electrolytic capacitor ESR increases significantly at cold temperatures. In the cold temperature
case, choose an electrolyte capacitor with ESR lower
than 40mΩ or connect a low-ESR ceramic capacitor
(10µF) in parallel with the electrolytic capacitor.
The boost converter output (BSOUT) is fed to the input
of the internal 250mA LDO. The boost-converter output
current waveform is discontinuous and requires highcapacity, low-ESR capacitors at BSOUT to ensure low
VBSOUT ripple. During the on-time of the internal MOSFET,
the BSOUT capacitor supplies 250mA current to the
LDO input. During the off-time, the inductor dumps current into the output capacitor while supplying the output
load current. The internal 250mA LDO is designed with
high PSRR; however, high-frequency spikes may not be
rejected by the LDO. Thus, high-value, low-ESR electrolytic capacitors are recommended for C BSOUT .
Peak-to-peak VBSOUT ripple depends on the ESR of the
electrolyte capacitor. Use the following equation to calculate the required ESR (ESR BSOUT) of the BSOUT
capacitor:
ESRBSOUT =
18
ΔVESRBS
ILIM − IOUT
where ΔVESRBS is 75% of total peak-to-peak ripple at
BSOUT, ILIM is the internal switch current limit (3A max),
and IOUT is the LDO output current. Use a 100mΩ or
lower ESR electrolytic capacitor. Make sure the ESR at
cold temperatures does not cause excessive ripple
voltage. Alternately, use a 10µF ceramic capacitor in
parallel with the electrolyte capacitor.
During the switch on-time, the BSOUT capacitor discharges while supplying IOUT. The ripple caused by
the capacitor discharge (ΔVCBS) is estimated by using
the following equation:
I
× 2.7 × 10−6
ΔVCBS = OUT
CBSOUT
where IOUT is the LDO output current and CBSOUT is
the BSOUT capacitance.
Inductor Selection
The control scheme of the MAX5092/MAX5093 permits
flexibility in choosing an inductor value. Smaller inductance values typically offer smaller physical size for a
given series resistance, allowing the smallest overall
circuit dimensions. Circuits using larger inductance
may provide higher efficiency and exhibit less ripple,
but also may reduce the maximum output current. This
occurs when the inductance is sufficiently large to prevent the LX current limit (I LIM ) from being reached
before the maximum on-time (tON-MAX) expires.
For maximum output current, choose the inductor value
so that the controller reaches the current limit before
the maximum on-time is reached:
V ×t −
L ≤ IN ON MAX
ILIM
where tON-MAX is typically 2.25µs, and the current limit
(I LIM ) is a maximum of 3A (see the Electrical
Characteristics). Choose an inductor with the maximum
saturation current (ISAT) greater than 3A.

4V to 72V Input LDOs with Boost Preregulator
The MAX5092_/MAX5093_ feature Dual Mode™ operation for the internal boost converter output voltage.
These devices operate in a preset output-voltage mode
or an adjustable output-voltage mode. In preset mode,
internal trimmed feedback resistors set VBSOUT to a
fixed 7V. Select the preset mode by directly connecting
BSFB to SGND (Figures 4 and 5). Ensure a low-impedance path between BSFB and SGND to limit the transient at BSFB to below 100mV. In adjustable mode,
connect BSFB to the center tap of an external resistordivider connected between BSOUT and SGND to program VBSOUT (Figures 6 and 7). Program (VBSOUT <
VOUT + VBST_DIS) for lower VBSOUT ripple. Note that
the current drawn by the resistor-divider at BSOUT
adds to the quiescent current and the shutdown current
of the IC. Use the resistor-divider only if VBSOUT is
required to be significantly different than 7V. Select
499kΩ or lower resistance value for the bottom resistor
(R2) of the divider connected to SGND. The top resistor
(R1) value is calculated as:
⎛V
⎞
R1 = R2 × ⎜ BSOUT − 1⎟
⎝ VBSFB
⎠
where VBSFB is the regulation voltage at BSFB (1.24V
typ) and V BSOUT is the desired output voltage for
BSOUT.
Setting the LDO Output Voltage (VOUT)
The LDO output voltage is also Dual Mode (preset and
adjustable). Preset mode is selected by connecting
SET to SGND (Figures 4 and 5). In preset mode, VOUT
regulates to 3.3V (MAX5092A/MAX5093A) or 5V
(MAX5092B/MAX5093B) by internal trimmed feedback
resistors. Adjustable mode is selected by connecting
SET to the center tap of an external resistor-divider
connected between OUT and SGND (Figures 6 and 7).
Note that the current drawn by the resistor-divider at
OUT adds to the quiescent current of the LDO. Use the
resistor-divider only if VOUT is required to be significantly different than the preset voltage. Select 100kΩ or
lower value for the bottom resistor (R5) of the divider
connected to SGND. The top resistor (R4) value is calculated as:
Schottky Diode Selection (MAX5093_)
The MAX5093_ requires an external diode connected
between LX and BSOUT (Figures 5 and 7). Proper
selection of an external diode can offer a lower forwardvoltage drop and a higher reverse-voltage handling
capability. Since the high switching frequency of the IC
demands a high-speed rectifier, Schottky diodes are
recommended for most applications because of their
fast recovery time and low forward-voltage drop.
Ensure that the diode’s peak current rating is greater
than or equal to the peak current limit of internal boost
converter MOSFET. A diode average forward current
rating of at least 1A is recommended. Additionally, the
diode reverse breakdown voltage must be greater than
the worst-case load-dump-condition voltage.
CT Capacitor Selection
The MAX5092_/MAX5093_ contain an open-drain
power-on-reset output (RESET) that indicates when the
LDO output voltage (VOUT) is out of regulation. When
VOUT rises above 92% of the nominal output voltage,
RESET goes high impedance after a user-programmable time delay. This time duration is programmable by a
capacitor (CCT) from CT to SGND (Figures 4–7). For a
chosen RESET active timeout period (tDELAY), calculate
the required capacitor value as:
CCT =
2 × 10 −6 × tDELAY
1.24
When VOUT drops below 90% of the LDO output regulation voltage, a 5mA pulldown current from CT to SGND
discharges CCT. The time required to discharge CT
determines the delay necessary to pull RESET low. This
delay provides glitch immunity to the RESET function.
The glitch immunity delay is directly proportional to the
CT capacitor and is approximately 70µs for a 0.1µF
capacitor at CT.

Figure 8. MAX5092/MAX5093 Package Power Dissipation
Maximum Output Current (IOUT_MAX)
The MAX5092_/MAX5093_ high input voltage (+72V
max) provides up to 250mA of current from OUT.
Package power-dissipation limits the amount of output
current available for a given input/output voltage and
ambient temperature. Figure 8 depicts the maximum
power-dissipation curve for the devices. The graph
assumes that the exposed metal pad of the IC package
is soldered to the PCB copper according to the JEDEC
51 standard (multilayer board). Use Figure 8 to determine the allowable package dissipation for a given
ambient temperature. Alternately, use the following formula to calculate the allowable package dissipation
(PDISS) in watts:
For TA ≤ +70°C:
PDISS = 2.67
For +70°C < TA ≤ +125°C:
PDISS = 2.67 - (0.0333 x (TA - 70))
where +70°C < TA ≤ +125°C and 0.0333W/°C is the
package thermal derating. After determining the allowable package dissipation, calculate the maximum output current (IOUT_MAX) using the following formula:
IOUT _ MAX =
PDISS − PLOSS(BST)
VIN − VOUT
where PDISS is the allowable package power dissipation and PLOSS(BST) is the boost converter power loss.
20
PDISS includes the losses in the boost converter operation and the LDO itself. The boost converter loss
PLOSS(BST), depends on VIN, VBSOUT, and IOUT. See
the Boost Converter Power Loss graphs in the Typical
Operating Characteristics to estimate the losses at a
given VIN and VBSOUT at room temperature. At a higher
ambient temperature of +105°C, PLOSS(BST) increases
by up to 20% due to higher RDS-ON and switching losses of the internal boost converter MOSFET. (Note:
IOUT_MAX must be less than 250mA).
Good PCB layout and routing are required in high-frequency switching power supplies to achieve proper
regulation and stability. It is strongly recommended that
the evaluation kit PCB layouts be followed as closely as
possible. Refer to the MAX5092 EV kit for an example
layout. Follow these guidelines for good PCB layout:
1) For SGND, use a large copper plane under the IC
and solder it to the exposed paddle. To effectively
use this copper area as a heat exchanger between
the PCB and ambient, expose this copper area on
the top and bottom side of the PCB. Do not make a
direct connection from the EP copper plane to pin 3
(SGND) underneath the IC so as to minimize
ground bounce.
2) Isolate the power components and high-current
path from the sensitive analog circuit.
3) Keep the high-current paths short, especially at the
ground terminals. This practice is essential for stable, jitter-free operation.
4) Connect the return terminals of input capacitors
and boost output capacitors to the PGND_BST
power ground plane. Connect the power ground
(PGND_BST) and signal ground (SGND) planes
together at the negative terminal of the input capacitors. Do not connect them anywhere else. Connect
PGND_LDO ground plane to SGND ground plane
at a single point.
5) Ensure that the feedback connections are short and
direct. Ensure a low-impedance path between
BSFB and SGND to limit the transient at BSFB to
100mV.
6) Route high-speed switching nodes away from the
sensitive analog areas. Use the internal PCB layer
for SGND as an EMI shield to keep radiated noise
away from the IC, feedback dividers, and bypass
capacitors.
