MAX16984A  
Automotive High-Current Step-Down Converter  
with USB Protection/Host Charger Adapter  
Emulator  
General Description  
Benefits and Features  
The MAX16984A combines a 5V automotive-grade step-  
down converter capable of driving up to 3.0A, a USB host  
charger adapter emulator, and USB protection switches  
for automotive USB host applications. The USB protection  
switches provide high-ESD, short-circuit protection and  
feature integrated host-charger port-detection circuitry ad-  
hering to the USB 2.0 BC 1.2 Battery Charging Specifica-  
tion, Samsung® and Chinese Telecommunication Indus-  
try Standard YD/T 1591-2009. They also include circuit-  
ry for Samsung 2.0A, iPod®/iPhone®/iPad® 2.4A dedicat-  
ed charging modes. The HVD+ and HVD- ESD protection  
features include protection to ±15kV Air/±8kV Contact on  
the HVD+ and HVD- outputs to the IEC 61000-4-2 model  
and 330Ω, 330pF ISO model.  
● Integrated DC-DC and USB Host Charge Emulator  
Enables 1-Chip Solution Directly from Car Battery to  
Portable Device  
• 4.5V to 28V (40V Load Dump) Operating Voltage  
• 5V, 3.0A Output Current Capability  
• Low-Q Current Skip and Shutdown Modes  
• Soft-Start Reduces Inrush Current  
● Low-Noise Features Prevent Interference with AM  
Band and Portable Devices  
• Fixed-Frequency 310kHz to 2.2MHz Operation  
• Forced-PWM Option at No Load  
• Spread Spectrum for EMI Reduction  
• SYNC Input/Output for Frequency Parking  
● Optimal USB Power and Communication for Portable  
Devices  
The high-efficiency step-down DC-DC converter operates  
from a voltage up to 28V and is protected from load  
dump transients up to 40V. The device is optimized for  
high-frequency operation and includes resistor-program-  
mable frequency selection from 310kHz to 2.2MHz to al-  
low optimization of efficiency, noise, and board space  
based on application requirements. The fully synchronous  
DC-DC converter integrates high-side and low-side MOS-  
FETs with an external SYNC input/output, and can be con-  
figured for spread-spectrum operation. Skip mode is avail-  
able in light/no-load conditions to minimize quiescent cur-  
rent. The converter can deliver up to 3A of continuous cur-  
rent at 105°C. The MAX16984A has an integrated spread-  
spectrum oscillator to improve EMI performance.

ed with automotive applications. The MAX16984A limits  
the USB load current using both a fixed internal peak cur-  
rent threshold of the DC-DC converter and a user-config-  
urable external USB load current-sense amplifier thresh-  
old.

MAX16984A  
Automotive High-Current Step-Down Converter  
with USB Protection/Host Charger Adapter  
Emulator  
Detailed Description  
The MAX16984A combines a 5V/3A automotive grade step-down converter, a USB host charger adapter emulator, and  
USB protection switches. It is designed for high-power USB ports in automotive radio, navigation, connectivity, and USB  
hub applications.  
The USB protection switches provide high-ESD and short- circuit protection for the low-voltage internal data lines of the  
multimedia processor’s USB transceiver and support USB Hi-Speed (480Mbps) and USB Full-Speed (12Mbps) pass-  
through operation. The MAX16984A features integrated host-charger port-detection circuitry adhering to the USB 2.0  
Battery Charging Specification BC1.2 and also includes dedicated bias resistors for Samsung 2.0A/iPod/iPhone/iPad  
2.4A dedicated charging modes.  
The high-efficiency step-down DC-DC converter operates from a voltage up to 28V and is protected from load-dump  
transients up to 40V. The device includes resistor-programmable frequency selection from 310kHz to 2.2MHz to allow  
optimization of efficiency, noise, and board space based on the application requirements. The converter can deliver up  
to 3A of continuous current at 105°C.  
The MAX16984A also includes a high-side current-sense amplifier and configurable feedback-adjustment circuit  
designed to provide automatic USB voltage adjustment to compensate for voltage drops in captive cables associated  
with automotive applications.

MAX16984A  
Automotive High-Current Step-Down Converter  
with USB Protection/Host Charger Adapter  
Emulator  
Power-Up and Enabling  
System Enable (HVEN)  
HVEN is used as the main enable to the device and initiates system start-up and configuration. If HVEN is at a logic-low  
level, SUPSW power consumption is reduced and the device enters a standby, low quiescent current level. HVEN is  
compatible with inputs from 3.3V logic up to automotive battery.  
DC-DC Enable (ENBUCK)  
The buck regulator on the MAX16984A is controlled by the ENBUCK pin. The DC-DC converter is activated by driving  
ENBUCK high, and disabled by driving ENBUCK low. For a typical USB hub application, connect ENBUCK to the enable  
output of the USB hub controller. This allows the USB hub controller to enable and disable the USB power port using  
software commands. ENBUCK can be directly connected to the BIAS or IN pin for applications that do not require GPIO  
control of the DC-DC converter enable.  
3.3V Input (IN)  
IN is used to clamp the D+ and D- pins during an ESD or overvoltage event on the HVD+ and HVD- pins. This clamping  
protects the downstream USB transceiver. The presence of these clamping diodes requires that IN remain set to 3.3V at  
all times for USB communication to occur. The IN pin features an overvoltage lockout that disables the data switches if  
IN is above V  
. Bypass IN with a 1µF ceramic capacitor, place it close to the IN pin, and connect it to the same  
IN_OVLO  
3.3V supply that is shared with the multimedia processor or hub transceiver.  
Linear Regulator Output (BIAS)  
BIAS is the output of a 5V linear regulator that powers the internal logic and control circuitry for the device. BIAS is  
internally powered from SUPSW or SENSP and automatically powers up when HVEN is high and SUPSW voltage  
exceeds V  
. The BIAS output contains an undervoltage lockout that keeps the internal circuitry disabled when  
UV_SUPSW  
BIAS is below V  
. The linear regulator automatically powers down when HVEN is low, and a low shutdown current  
UV_BIAS  
mode is entered. Bypass BIAS to GND with a 2.2μF ceramic capacitor.  
Power-On Sequencing  
HVEN, ENBUCK, and IN do not have a power-up sequence requirement by design. However, the desired system  
behavior should be considered for the state of these pins at startup. The D+ and D- pins are clamped to IN, therefore IN  
should be set to 3.3V before any USB communication is required. It is recommended that IN is set to 3.3V before HVEN  
is set high. ENBUCK acts as the master disable for the DC-DC converter. If ENBUCK is low when HVEN is set high, all  
variants keep the buck converter in the disabled state until ENBUCK is set high.  
Step-Down DC-DC Regulator  
Step-Down Regulator  
The MAX16984A features a current-mode, step-down converter with integrated high-side and low-side MOSFETs. The  
low-side MOSFET enables fixed-frequency, forced-PWM operation under light loads. The DC-DC regulator features a  
cycle-by-cycle current limit and intelligent transition from skip mode to forced-PWM mode that makes the device ideal for  
automotive applications.  
Wide Input Voltage Range  
The device is specified for a wide 4.5V to 28V input voltage range. SUPSW provides power to the internal BIAS linear  
regulator and internal power switch. Certain conditions such as cold cranking can cause the voltage at the output to drop  
below the programmed output voltage. Under such conditions, the device operates in a high duty-cycle mode to facilitate  
minimum dropout from input to output.

Maximum Duty-Cycle Operation  
The MAX16984A has a maximum duty cycle of 98% (typ). The IC monitors the off-time (time for which the low-side FET  
is on) in both PWM and skip modes for every switching cycle. Once the off-time of 150ns (typ) is detected continuously  
for 7.5μs, the low-side FET is forced on for 60ns (typ) every 7.5μs. The input voltage at which the device enters dropout  
changes depending on the input voltage, output voltage, switching frequency, load current, and design efficiency. The  
input voltage at which the devices enter dropout can be approximated as:  
V
+ I  
× R  
ONH  
(

OUT  
LOAD  
V
=
SUPSW  
0.98  
Note: The equation above does not take into account the efficiency and switching frequency but will provide a good first-  
order approximation. Use the R  
number from the maximum column in the Electrical Characteristics table.  
ONH  
Output Voltage (SENSP)  
The device features a precision internal feedback network that is connected to SENSP and that is used to set the output  
voltage of the DC-DC converter. The network nominally sets the average DC-DC converter output voltage to 5.15V in  
forced-PWM and 5.25V in skip mode.  
Soft-Start  
When the DC-DC converter is enabled, the regulator soft-starts by gradually ramping up the output voltage from 0V to  
5.15V over approximately 8ms. This soft-start feature reduces inrush current during startup. Soft-start is guaranteed into  
compliant USB loads (see the USB Loads section).  
Reset Behavior  
The MAX16984A implements a discharge function on SENSN any time that the DC-DC regulator is disabled for any  
reason. When the discharge function is activated, current (I  
) is drained through a current-limited FET, and a  
SENSN_DIS  
reset timer is also started. This timer prevents the DC-DC regulator from starting up again until the timer has expired.  
This allows for easy compatibility with USB specifications and removes the need for long discharge algorithms to be  
implemented in system software. See the relevant Functional Diagrams for reset timer details.  
Reset Criteria  
The MAX16984A DC-DC converter automatically resets for all undervoltage, overvoltage, overcurrent and  
overtemperature fault conditions. See Table 5 for details. This 2s timer is activated after a fault condition is removed  
and prevents the buck converter from switching on until the timer expires. Another internal retry timer is enabled after  
ENBUCK is set low, or a transition of the DATA_MODE pin (switching between a data mode and a dedicated charging  
mode). These conditions start an internal 2s timer that prevents the buck from switching on until the timer expires.  
Switching Frequency Configuration  
The DC-DC switching frequency can be referenced to an internal oscillator or from an external clock signal on the SYNC  
pin. The internal oscillator frequency is set from the CONFIG1 pin at startup. The internal oscillator can be programmed  
to four discrete values from 310kHz to 2.2MHz.  
Switching Frequency Synchronization (SYNC Pin)  
When the SYNC pin is configured to operate as an output, skip mode operation is disallowed, and the internal oscillator  
frequency is driven by the SYNC pin. This allows other devices to synchronize with the MAX16984A 180 degrees out of  
phase for EMI reduction.  
When SYNC is configured as an input, the SYNC pin becomes a logic-level input that can be used for both operating-  
mode selection and frequency control. Connecting SYNC to GND or an external clock enables fixed-frequency, forced-  
PWM mode. Connecting SYNC to a logic-high signal allows intelligent skip-mode operation. The device can be externally  
synchronized to frequencies within ±20% of the programmed internal oscillator frequency.

Forced-PWM Operation  
In forced-PWM mode, the device maintains fixed-frequency PWM operation over all load conditions, including no-load  
conditions.  
Intelligent Skip-Mode Operation and Attach Detection  
When the SYNC pin is configured as an input, but neither a clocked signal nor a logic-low level exists on the SYNC  
pin, the MAX16984A operates in skip mode at very light load/no load conditions. Intelligent device attach detection is  
used to determine when a device is attached to the USB port. The device intelligently exits skip mode and enters forced-  
PWM mode when a device is attached and remains in forced-PWM mode as long as the attach signal persists. This  
minimizes the EMI concerns caused by automotive captive USB cables and poorly shielded consumer USB cables. The  
device attach event is also signaled by the ATTACH pin. The criteria for device attach detection and intelligent skip-mode  
operation are shown in Table 1.

Spread-Spectrum Option  
Spread-spectrum operation is offered to improve the EMI performance of the MAX16984A. Spread-spectrum operation is  
preloaded on startup from the CONFIG1 pin. The internal operating frequency modulates the switching frequency by up  
to ±3.4% relative to the internally generated operating frequency. This results in a total spread-spectrum range of 6.8%.  
Spread-spectrum mode is only active when operating from the internal oscillator. Spread-spectrum clock dithering is not  
possible when operating from an external clock.  
Current Limit  
The MAX16984A limits the USB load current using both a fixed internal peak current threshold of the DC-DC converter,  
as well as a user-programmable external DC load current-sense amplifier threshold. This allows the current limit to be  
adjusted between 500mA to 3A depending on the application requirements, while protecting the system in the event of a  
fault. Upon exceeding either the DC-DC peak or user-programmable current thresholds, the high-side FET is immediately  
switched off and current-limit algorithms are initiated. When the external current limit lasts for longer than 16ms, the  
FAULT pin asserts. Once the load current exceeds the programmed threshold, the DC-DC converter acts as a constant-  
current source. This may cause the output voltage to droop. If the USB current limit is detected for 16ms, and the output  
voltage falls below the reset threshold, the DC-DC converter resets. The DC-DC converter also resets if the internal LX  
peak current threshold is exceeded for four consecutive switching cycles, and the output voltage droops to less than  
2.0V.  
In some cases, the designer may want to increase the load to 160%, refer to USB Output Current Limit for details.  
Output Short-Circuit Protection  
The DC-DC converter output (SENSP, SENSN) is protected against both short-to-ground and short-to-battery conditions.  
If a short-to-ground or undervoltage condition is encountered, the DC-DC converter immediately resets, asserts the  
FAULT pin, and then reattempts soft-start after the 2s reset delay. This pattern repeats until the short circuit has been  
removed.  
If a short-to-battery is encountered (V  
> V  
), the buck converter shuts down and the FAULT pin is  
OV_SENSN  
SENSN  
asserted. The buck converter stays shut down until the fault condition resolves and the 2s timer expires.  
Thermal Overload Protection  
Thermal-overload protection limits the total power dissipated by the device. A thermal protection circuit monitors the die  
temperature. If the die temperature exceeds +165°C, the device shuts down, so it can cool. Once the device has cooled  
by 10°C, the device is enabled again. This results in a pulsed output during continuous thermal-overload conditions,  
protecting the device during fault conditions. For continuous operation, do not exceed the absolute maximum junction  
temperature of +150°C. See the Thermal Considerations section for more information.  
USB Current Limit and Output Voltage Adjustment  
Current-Sense Amplifier (SENSP, SENSN)  
MAX16984A features an internal USB load current-sense amplifier to monitor the DC load current delivered to the USB  
port. The V  
voltage (V  
- V  
) is used internally to provide precision DC current-limit and voltage-

In some cases, the designer may want to increase the load to 160%, refer to USB Output Current Limit for details.  
USB DC Current Limit Configuration  
The MAX16984A allows configuration of the precision DC current limit by four available current limit options by reading  
the CONFIG3 resistor. See Table 4 and the Applications Information section for more information.  
In some cases, the designer may want to increase the load to 160%, refer to USB Output Current Limit for details.  
Voltage Feedback Adjustment Configuration  
The MAX16984A compensates voltage drop for up to 474mΩ of USB cable in typical USB charging applications. The  
device allows configuration by the CONFIG2 resistor, which sets GAIN[3:0], and the CONFIG3 resistor, which sets  
GAIN[4]. See the Applications Information section for more information.  
In some cases, the designer may want to increase the load to 160%, refer to USB Output Current Limit for details.  
Remote-Sense Feedback Adjustment  
The remote-sense feature (available by custom order only) provides another option to adjust the output voltage by  
sensing the ground node on the USB port at the far-end of the captive cable; either with the cable shield or with an  
additional sensing wire. This feature automatically senses the cable resistance and adjusts the voltage compensation  
without changing the GAIN[4:0] setting.  
The user needs to compensate the voltage drop because of the sense resistor, the load line behavior of the buck, and  
any difference between the V  
order.

USB Protection Switches  
MAX16984A provides automotive-grade ESD and shortcircuit protection for the low-voltage USB data lines of high-  
integration multimedia processors. HVDP/HVDM protection consists of ESD and OVP (overvoltage protection) for  
1.5Mbps, 12Mbps, and 480Mbps USB transceiver applications. This is accomplished with a very low-capacitance FET in  
series with the D+ and D- data paths.  
The MAX16984A high-voltage variant does not require an external ESD array, and protects the HVD+ and HVD pins  
to ±15kV Air-Gap/±8kV Contact Discharge with the 150pF/330Ω IEC 61000-4-2 model and the 330pF/330Ω model, as  
well as protecting up to ±15kV Air-Gap/±8kV Contact Discharge with the 330pF/2kΩ ISO 10605 model. The MAX16984A  
provides robust, automotive-grade protection while maintaining a 1GHz -3dB insertion loss. This ensures optimum eye  
diagram at the end of a captive cable. The HVD+ and HVD- short-circuit protection features include protection for a short  
to the USB +5V BUS and a short to the +18V car battery. These protection features prevent damage to the low-voltage

Figure 3. Data Switch and Charge-Detection Block Diagram  
USB On-The-Go and Dual-Role Applications  
The MAX16984A is fully compatible with USB on-the-go (OTG) and dual-role applications. A negotiated role swap (HNP  
or Apple CarPlay) requires no software interaction with the IC. When there is no negotiation before the SoC enters  
peripheral mode, the MAX16984A must be in Hi-Speed pass-through (SDP mode) before and during the role swap. The  
MAX16984AATJB/V+ defaults to SDP mode on startup if the DATA_MODE pin is logic-low. This configuration allows a  
role swap immediately on startup without microcontroller interaction.  
Configuration (CONFIG1–CONFIG3)  
The MAX16984A allows full device configuration from three resistors placed among the three CONFIG pins and GND.  
CONFIG1 sets the internal oscillator switching frequency, the SYNC pin direction, and enables the DC-DC spread-  
spectrum mode. CONFIG2 sets the 4 LSBs of the voltage adjustment gain (GAIN[3:0]). CONFIG3 sets the USB DC  
current limit, and sets the MSB of voltage adjustment gain (GAIN[4]). See Table 3 and Table 4 CONFIG options. See the  
Applications Information section for setting selection and Ordering Information for variant part number information.  
In some cases, the designer may want to increase the load to 160%, refer to USB Output Current Limit for details.

Fault Output Pin (FAULT)  
The MAX16984A features an open-drain, active-low FAULT output. The MAX16984A is designed to eliminate false  
FAULT reporting by using an internal deglitch and fault blanking timer. This ensures FAULT is not incorrectly asserted  
during normal operation such as starting into high-capacitance loads. The FAULT pin can be tied directly to the over-  
current fault input of a hub controller or SoC.

Applications Information  
Migrating from MAX16984 to MAX16984A  
The MAX16984A offers several improvements compared to the original MAX16984, such as higher USB protection  
switch bandwidth and greater output current capability. There are, however, some notable differences between the  
devices that prevent drop-in replacement. In Table 6 below, the differing pins and associated functions are summarized  
as a guide for migrating to the MAX16984A.

Consequently, peak currents and I R losses are lower at higher switching frequencies, but core losses, gate charge  
currents, and switching losses increase.  
To avoid AM band interference, operation between 500kHz and 1.8MHz is not recommended.

DC-DC Input Capacitor Selection  
The input capacitor supplies the instantaneous current needs of the buck converter and reduces the peak currents drawn  
from the upstream power source. The input bypass capacitor is a determining factor in the input voltage ripple.  
The input capacitor RMS current rating requirement (I  
) is defined by the following equation:

current.  
Choose an input capacitor that exhibits less than 10ºC self-heating temperature rise at the RMS input current for optimal  
long-term reliability.  
The input voltage ripple is composed of V (caused by the capacitor discharge) and V  
(caused by the ESR of the  
ESR  
Q
capacitor). Use low-ESR ceramic capacitors with high ripple current capability at the input. Assume the contribution from  
the ESR and capacitor discharge is equal to 50%. Calculate the input capacitance and ESR required for a specified input  
voltage ripple using the following equations:

input capacitor of a buck converter has a high , minimize the PCB current-loop area to reduce EMI. Bypass SUPSW  
with 47μF of bulk electrolytic capacitance to dampen line transients.  
DC-DC Output Capacitor Selection  
To ensure stability and compliance with USB and Apple specifications, follow the recommended output filters listed in  
Table 7. For proper functionality, a minimum amount of ceramic capacitance must be used, regardless of f . Additional  
SW  
capacitance for lower switching frequencies can be low-ESR electrolytic types (< 0.25Ω).  
DC-DC Output Inductor Selection  
Three key inductor parameters must be considered when selecting an inductor: inductance value (L), inductor saturation  
current (I  
), and DC resistance (R  
). To select the proper inductance value, the ratio of inductor peak-to-peak AC  
SAT  
DCR  
current to DC average current (LIR) must be selected. A small LIR will reduce the RMS current in the output capacitor  
and results in small output ripple voltage, but this requires a larger inductor. A good compromise between size and loss  
is LIR = 0.35 (35%). Determine the inductor value using the equation below,

Layout Considerations  
Proper PCB layout is critical for robust system performance. See the MAX16984A EV kit data sheet for a recommended  
layout. Minimize the current-loop area and the parasitics of the DC-DC conversion circuitry to reduce EMI. The input  
di  
dt  
capacitor placement should be prioritized because in a buck converter the ceramic input capacitor has high  
.
Place the input capacitor, power inductor, and output capacitor as close as possible to the IC SUPSW and PGND pins.  
Shorter traces should be prioritized over wider traces.  
A low-impedance ground connection between the input and output capacitor is required (route through the ground pour  
on the exposed pad). Connect the exposed pad to ground. Place multiple vias in the pad to connect to all other ground  
layers for proper heat dissipation. Failure to do so can result in the IC repeatedly reaching thermal shutdown. Do not  
use separate power and analog ground planes. Instead, use a single common ground and manage currents through  
component placement. High-frequency return current flows through the path of least impedance (through the ground pour  
directly underneath the corresponding traces).  
USB traces must be routed as a 90Ω differential pair with an appropriate keep-out area. Avoid routing USB traces near  
clocks and high-frequency switching nodes. The length of the routing should be minimized and avoid 90° turns, excessive  
vias, and RF stubs.  
Determining USB System Requirements  
The nominal cable resistance (with tolerance) for both the USB power wire (BUS) and return GND should be determined  
from the cable manufacturer. In addition, be sure to include the resistance from any inline or PCB connectors. Determine  
the desired operating temperature range for the application, and consider the change in resistance over temperature.  
A typical application presents a 200mΩ BUS resistance with a matching 200mΩ resistance in the ground path. In this  
application, the voltage drop at the far end of the captive cable is 800mV when the load current is 2A. This voltage drop  
requires the voltage-adjustment circuitry of the ICs to increase the output voltage to comply with the USB and Apple  
specifications.  
USB Loads  
The MAX16984A is compatible with both USB-compliant and non-compliant loads. A compliant USB device is not allowed  
to sink more then 30mA and must not present more than 10μF of capacitance when initially attached to the port. The  
device then begins its D+/D- connection and enumeration process. After completion of the connect process, the device  
can pull 100mA/150mA and must not present a capacitance > 10μF. This is considered the hot-inserted, USB-compliant  
load of 44Ω||10μF.  
For non-compliant USB loads, the ICs can also support both hot insertion and soft-start into a USB load of 2Ω||330μF.

Tuning of USB Data Lines  
USB Hi-Speed mode requires careful PCB layout with 90Ω controlled differential impedance, with matched traces of  
equal length, and with no stubs or test points. The MAX16984A includes highbandwidth USB data switches (> 1GHz).  
This means data-line tuning may not be required. However, all designs are recommended to include pads that would  
allow LC components to be mounted on the data lines so that tuning can easily be performed later, if necessary. Tuning  
components should be placed as close as possible to the IC data pins, on the same layer of the PCB as the IC. The  
proper configuration of the tuning components is shown in Figure 6. Figure 7 shows the reference eye diagram used  
in the test setup. Figure 8 shows the MAX16984A high-voltage eye diagram on the standard EVKIT with no tuning  
components. Tuning inductors should be high-Q wire-wound inductors. Contact Maxim’s application team for assistance  
with the tuning process for your specific application.

USB Data Line Common-Mode Choke Placement  
Most automotive applications use a USB-optimized common-mode choke to mitigate EMI signals from both leaving and  
entering the module. Optimal placement for this EMI choke is at the module’s USB connector. This common-mode choke  
does not replace the need for the tuning inductors previously mentioned.  
ESD Protection  
The high-voltage MAX16984A requires no external ESD protection. All Maxim devices incorporate structures to protect  
against electrostatic discharges encountered during handling and assembly. While competing solutions can latch up and  
require cycling to resume operation after an ESD  
event, the MAX16984A does not latch up after ESD events. When used with the configuration shown in the Typical  
Application Circuit, the MAX16984A is characterized for protection to the following limits:  
● ±15kV ISO 10605 (330pF, 2kΩ) Air-Gap  
● ±8kV ISO 10605 (330pF, 2kΩ) Contact  
● ±15kV IEC 61000-4-2 (150pF, 330Ω) Air-Gap

ESD Test Conditions  
ESD performance depends on a variety of conditions. Contact Maxim for test setup, test methodology, and test results.  
Human Body Model  
Figure 9 shows the Human Body Model, and Figure 11 shows the current waveform it generates when discharged  
into a low impedance. This model consists of a 100pF capacitor charged to the ESD voltage of interest, which is then  
discharged into the device through a 1.5kΩ resistor.  
IEC 61000-4-2  
The IEC 61000-4-2 standard covers ESD testing and performance of finished equipment. MAX16984A helps users  
design equipment that meets Level 4 of IEC 61000-4-2. The main difference between tests done using the Human Body  
Model and IEC 61000-4-2 is a higher peak current in IEC 61000-4-2. Because the series resistance is lower in the IEC  
61000-4-2 ESD test model (Figure 10), the ESD withstand-voltage measured to this standard is generally lower than that  
measured using the Human Body Model Figure 12 shows the current waveform for the 8kV, IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 ESD  
Contact Discharge test. The Air-Gap Discharge test involves approaching the device with a charged probe. The Contact  
Discharge method requires connecting the probe to the device before the probe is energized.
