MAX20730
Integrated, Step-Down Switching
Regulator with PMBus
General Description
The MAX20730 is a fully integrated, highly efficient switch-
ing regulator with PMBus™ for applications operating from
4.5V to 16V and requiring up to 25A (max) load. This
single-chip regulator provides extremely compact, high-
efficiency power-delivery solutions with high-precision
output voltages and excellent transient response for
networking, datacom, and telecom equipment.
The IC offers a broad range of programmable features
through either the PMBus or a capacitor and resistor
connected to a dedicated programming pin. Using this
feature, the operation can be optimized for a specific
application, reducing the component count and/or setting
appropriate trade-offs between the regulator’s performance
and system cost. Ease of programming enables using the
same design for multiple applications.
The IC includes protection and telemetry features. Positive
and negative cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection and
overtemperature protection ensure a rugged design.
Input undervoltage lockout shuts down the device to
prevent operation when the input voltage is out of
specification. A status pin provides an output signal to
show that the output voltage is within range and the
system is regulating.

www.maximintegrated.com/packages.
Note that a “+”,
“#”, or “-” in the package code indicates RoHS status only. Package drawings may show a different suffix character, but the drawing
pertains to the package regardless of RoHS status.
Note 1:
As measured at the V
DDH
pin referenced to GND pin immediately adjacent using a high-frequency scope probe with I
LOAD
at I
MAX
. A high-frequency input bypass capacitor must be located less than 60 mils from the V
DDH
pin per our design
guidelines.
Note 2:
The 25ns rating is the allowable voltage on the VX node in excess of the -0.3V to +18V DC ratings. The VX voltage may
exceed the DC rating in either the positive or negative direction for up to 25ns per cycle.
Note 3:
See the
Average Input Current Limit
section.
Note 4:
Data taken using Maxim’s evaluation kit (MAX20730EVKIT#). The PCB has four layers of 2oz copper.
