MAX25610A/MAX25610B  
Synchronous Buck and Buck-Boost  
LED Driver/DC-DC Converter  
General Description  
Benefits and Features  
● Automotive Ready: AEC-Q100 Qualified  
The MAX25610A/MAX25610B are fully synchronous  
LED drivers that provide constant output current to  
drive high-power LEDs. The MAX25610A/MAX25610B  
integrate two 60mΩ power MOSFETs for synchronous  
operation, minimizing external components. Flexible  
configuration supports buck, inverting buck-boost, and  
boost conversion. The devices incorporate current-  
mode control that provides fast transient response and  
eases loop stabilization. The MAX25610A/MAX25610B  
include cycle by cycle current limiting, output overvoltage  
protection (OVP), open-string protection, output short-  
circuit protection (SCP), and thermal shutdown.  
● Integration Minimizes BOM to Save Space and Cost  
Wide input Voltage Range from 5V to 36V in Buck-  
Boost LED Driver Applications  
2.2MHz Switching Frequency Option Reduces  
Inductor Size  
Internal Current-Sense Option Reduces Cost  
Integrated High and Low-Side Switching MOSFETs  
PWM Dimming with an Analog Control Voltage  
Minimizes Additional Components for Dimming  
● Wide Dimming Ratio Allows High Contrast Ratio  
Analog and PWM Dimming  
In LED driver applications, the MAX25610A/MAX25610B  
provide analog dimming of the LED current through the  
REFI pin, and PWM dimming through the PWMDIM  
pin. Switching is enabled when PWMDIM is high, and  
disabled with both MOSFETs off when PWMDIM is low.  
Analog programming of the PWMDIM pin enables the  
built-in digital dimming function, with dimming frequency  
selected by the PWMFRQ pin.  
● Multi-Topology Architecture Provides Flexibility  
Buck LED Driver for 1-to-2 LEDs When Operating  
of Automotive Battery Applications  
Inverting Buck-Boost LED Driver for 3-to-5 LEDs  
When Operating from Automotive Battery  
Applications  
● Protection Features and Wide Temperature Range  
Increase System Reliability  
The MAX25610A/MAX25610B include two 5V regulators.  
-40°C to +125°C Operating Temperature Range  
Short-Circuit, Overvoltage, and Thermal Protection  
FLT Flag for Fault Indication  
A regulated 5V between V  
and AGND is used for IC  
CC  
bias, REFI and PWMFRQ programming. Another low  
current regulated 5V between V and INN is used for  
EE  
analog PWMDIM and FLT pullup. Both PWMDIM and  
FLT reference INN for easy system interface. Switching  
frequency is internally set at 400kHz for the MAX25610A  
and 2.2MHz for the MAX25610B. The devices have built-  
in spread spectrum to reduce EMI noise. External and  
internal current sense are supported, with ±3% and ±6%  
respective LED current accuracy.

The MAX25610A/MAX25610B are well-suited for  
automotive applications requiring high voltage input and  
can withstand load dump events up to 40V. The devices  
can also be used as a DC-DC converter using the  
FB input as feedback for the output voltage divider.  
The MAX25610A/MAX25610B are available in thermally  
enhanced 16-pin TSSOP-EP and 16-pin TQFN packages.  
They are specified to operate over the -40ºC to +125ºC  
automotive temperature range.

MAX25610A/MAX25610B  
Synchronous Buck and Buck-Boost  
LED Driver/DC-DC Converter  
LED current sensing is configured by connecting the FB  
pin to an external sense resistor in series with LED string.  
The devices regulate the current to the programmed  
voltage at the REFI pin. Internal LED current sensing is  
Detailed Description  
The MAX25610A/MAX25610B are fully synchronous LED  
drivers that provide constant output current to drive high-  
power LEDs. The MAX25610A/MAX25610B integrate  
two 60mΩ power MOSFETs for synchronous operation,  
minimizing external components. Flexible configuration  
supports buck, inverting buck-boost and boost conversion.  
Thedeviceincorporatescurrent-modecontrolthatprovides  
fast transient response and eases loop stabilization. The  
MAX25610A/MAX25610B include cycle by cycle current  
limiting, output overvoltage protection (OVP), open-string  
protection, output short-circuit protection (SCP), and  
thermal shutdown.  
selected by connecting the FB pin to V  
through a 100kΩ  
CC  
resistor. The devices use an integrated current sense of  
the low-side power FET and regulate that current to the  
programmed current at the REFI pin.  
The fixed-frequency oscillator turns on the internal high-  
side power FET at the beginning of each clock cycle.  
Current in the inductor then increases until the internal  
PWM comparator trips and turns off the high-side power  
FET. When the high-side power FET turns off, the  
synchronous low-side power FET turns on until the next  
clock cycle begins.  
In LED driver applications, the MAX25610A/MAX25610B  
provide analog dimming of the LED current through the  
REFI pin and PWM dimming through the PWMDIM pin.  
Switching is enabled when PWMDIM is high and disabled  
with both MOSFETs off when PWMDIM is low. Analog  
programming of the PWMDIM pin enables the built-in  
digital dimming function, with dimming frequency selected  
by the PWMFRQ pin.  
In external LED current sensing, the FB voltage is amplified  
by a factor of 6.67 and fed to the inverting input of a  
transconductance amplifier, while the REFI voltage is  
fed to the noninverting input. In internal current sensing,  
the transconductance amplifier compares the current  
programmed at REFI against the current sensed across  
the low-side power FET. In both cases, the error signal  
at the inputs of the transconductance amplifier generate  
a proportional current out the COMP pin. COMP is  
externally compensated by a resistor and capacitor  
network. The compensated COMP voltage is fed to the  
noninverting input of a PWM comparator. The inverting  
input of the PWM comparator is a signal that represents  
the current on the high-side power FET summed with a  
saw-toothed ramp.  
The MAX25610A/MAX25610B include two 5V regulators.  
A regulated 5V between V  
and AGND is used for  
CC  
IC bias, as well as REFI and PWMFRQ programming.  
Another low current regulated 5V between V and  
EE  
INN is used for analog PWMDIM and FLT pullup. Both  
PWMDIM and FLT reference INN for easy system  
interface. Switching frequency is internally set at 400kHz  
for the MAX25610A and 2.2MHz for the MAX25610B.  
The devices have built-in spread spectrum to reduce EMI  
noise. External and internal current sense are supported,  
with ±3% and ±6% respective LED current accuracy.  
The devices also include a PWMDIM dimming input that  
is used for PWM dimming of the LED current. When  
this signal is low, both the high-side and low-side power  
FETs are turned off. When the PWMDIM signal goes  
high the LED current regulation starts. The rising edge  
of the PWMDIM signal also restarts the internal oscillator  
to allow the high-side power FET to be turned on at the  
same time as the rising edge of the PWMDIM signal. This  
provides consistent dimming performance at low dimming  
duty cycles. Analog programming of the PWMDIM pin  
operates in the same way as described above, except  
that it uses an internal PWM clock with dimming frequency  
selected by the PWMFRQ pin.  
The MAX25610A/MAX25610B are well-suited for automotive  
applications that require high-voltage input and can  
withstand load dump events up to 40V. The devices can  
also be used as DC-DC converters using the FB input as  
feedback for the output voltage divider. The MAX25610A/  
MAX25610B are available in thermally enhanced 16-pin  
TSSOP-EP and 16-pin TQFN packages. They are  
specified to operate over the -40°C to +125°C automotive  
temperature range.  
Functional Operation  
The MAX25160A/MAX25610B are fully synchronous,  
monolithic, constant frequency peak current-mode  
DC-DC LED drivers. These devices support both internal  
and external current sensing of the LED current. Upon  
power-up, the device detects the voltage level of the FB  
pin to determine the current sense configuration. External

Analog Dimming  
The device has an analog dimming control input pin  
(REFI). In external sensing mode, the voltage at REFI  
sets the LED current level when REFI ≤ 1.2V. For higher  
voltages, REFI is clamped to 1.25V (typ). The LED  
current is guaranteed to be at zero when the REFI voltage  
is at or below 0.18V (typ). The LED current can be linearly  
adjusted from zero to full scale for REFI voltages in the  
range of 0.2V to 1.2V.  
Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit  
The MAX25610A/MAX25610B implement a cycle-by-  
cycle current limit on the internal high-side power switch.  
If the peak current in the high-side switch exceeds 4.25A  
(typ), the switch is turned off immediately. The high-side  
switch turns on again at the start of the next clock cycle.  
Slope Compensation  
In internal sensing an external resistor from REFI pin to  
ground is used to program the LED current. The REFI  
pin voltage is regulated to 1.25V in this mode. The LED  
current is then given by:  
The devices incorporate slope compensation to prevent  
sub-harmonic oscillations for duty cycles exceeding 50%.  
When the device is configured for buck mode the slope  
compensation ramp rate is 562mA/μs for the MAX25610A  
and 2.9A/μs for the MAX25610B. When configured as a  
buck-boost converter, the slope compensation ramp is  
proportional to the output voltage. The slope compensation

Error Amplifier  
An internal transconductance amplifier with  
a
transconductance of 1800μS is used by the control loop  
in the MAX25610A/MAX25610B to regulate the LED  
current. In external LED current sensing, the FB voltage is  
amplified by a factor of 6.7 and fed to the inverting  
input of a transconductance amplifier, while the REFI  
voltage is fed to the noninverting input. In internal current  
sensing, the transconductance amplifier compares the  
current programmed at REFI against the current sensed  
across the low-side power FET. In both cases, the error  
signal at the inputs of the transconductance amplifier  
generate a proportional current out the COMP pin. COMP  
is externally compensated by a resistor and capacitor  
network. The compensated COMP voltage is fed to the  
non-inverting input of a PWM comparator. The inverting  
input of the PWM comparator is a signal that represents  
the current on the high-side power FET summed with a  
with a slope compensation ramp.

If an analog control signal is applied to PWMDIM, the  
device compares the DC input to an internally generated

When the PWM dimming signal is low the COMP pin

the error amplifier is connected to COMP. This enables

the dimming signal has turned off the internal switching  
MOSFETs. To maintain the charge on the compensation

Note that the DC bias on the capacitor can derate the  
capacitance value. The capacitance value can also  
change due to temperature. The selected capacitor  
should have a capacitance that exceeds the minimum  
required capacitance at the maximum operating voltage  
and maximum operating temperature.  
Input Capacitor  
The input-filter capacitor bypasses the ripple current  
drawn by the converter and reduces the amplitude of  
high-frequency current conducted to the input supply. The  
ESR, ESL, and bulk capacitance of the input capacitor  
contribute to the input ripple. Use a low-ESR input  
capacitor that can handle the maximum input RMS ripple  
current from the converter. The input capacitors must also  
be chosen such that the capacitors can withstand the  
maximum expected input voltage with adequate design  
margin.  
Output Capacitor  
With adequate design margin, the output capacitors can  
withstand the maximum operating output voltage. The  
output voltage ripple (ΔV

capacitance, its ESR, and ESL. Ceramic output capacitors  
have very low ESR and ESL so the output ripple in

● The exposed pad on the bottom of the package must  
be soldered to AGND of the IC so that the pad is  
connected to ground electrically and also acts as a

extend the ground plane as much as possible, and  
add thermal vias under and near the device to addi-  
tional ground planes within the circuit board.

● Run the current-sense lines FB and the line from the  
bottom side of the current-sense resistor very close  
to each other. The Kelvin line from the bottom of the  
current-sense resistor when doing external current  
sensing should go directly to the AGND pin of the IC.  
Do not cross these critical signal lines with switching  
power lines.  
PCB Layout Guidelines  
For proper operation and minimum EMI, use the following  
PCB layout guidelines:  
● All connections carrying pulsed currents must be  
very short and as wide as possible. The inductance  
of these connections must be kept to an absolute  
minimum due to the high di/dt of the currents. Since  
inductance of a current carrying loop is proportional  
to the area enclosed by the loop, if the loop area is  
made very small, inductance is reduced. Additionally,  
small current loop areas reduce radiated EMI.  
● Use separate ground planes on different layers of the  
PCB for AGND and PGND. All the components con-  
nected to the pins REFI, COMP, OUT, and PWMFRQ  
go to the AGND plane. Connect both of these planes  
together at a single point where the switching activity  
is minimum.  
● Place a 0603 0.1μF ceramic capacitor between INP  
and PGND. Also place 2x 10μF ceramic capacitors  
as close as possible between INP and PGND. These  
capacitors provide the high-frequency switching  
currents to the internal MOSFETs and their drivers.  
In case of the buck-boost topology, add additional  
capacitance between INP and INN.  
● When using the PWMDIM pin for performing PWM  
dimming with a DC voltage generated using a resis-  
tive divder from the V  
supply, ensure that the bot-  
EE  
tom resistor of the resistive divider is connected to  
the INN plane where it is quiet.  
● Use 2oz or thicker copper to keep trace inductances  
and resistances to a minimum. Thicker copper con-  
ducts heat more effectively, thereby reducing thermal  
impedance. Thin copper PCBs compromise efficiency  
in applications involving high currents.  
● Place a minimum 1μF ceramic bypass capacitor  
between V  
and PGND and another minimum  
CC  
0.1μF ceramic capacitor between V  
and AGND.
