MAX16050 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX16050 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a complete, fully
assembled and tested multivoltage sequencer circuit that
demonstrates the capability of the 4-channel MAX16050
and 5-channel MAX16051 sequencing ICs. The
MAX16050 EV kit monitors up to nine DC-DC converter
outputs and ensures proper power-up and power-down
conditions for systems requiring voltage sequencing.
The EV kit features
RESET
output signals to indicate an
undervoltage condition, or when
SHDN
or
FAULT
sig-
nals are pulled low. Additionally, dedicated
OV_OUT
outputs indicate an overvoltage fault when any of the
EV kit’s inputs go above the overvoltage threshold. The
EV kit is capable of evaluating the MAX16050 and
MAX16051 individually. The EV kit can be configured
for daisy chaining these two devices together, which
enables the user to sequence and monitor up to nine
voltages across both devices. The MAX16050 EV kit
also provides PCB pads for low-current MOSFETs that
are controlled using the MAX16050 and MAX16051
charge-pump outputs.
The MAX16050 EV kit utilizes two power supplies, one
for each IC. Each power supply can range from 2.7V to
13.2V, allowing the user to operate directly from an
intermediate bus voltage. The MAX16050 EV kit also
requires an additional 2.2V to 5.5V power supply for the
pullup resistors’ open-drain logic outputs.

Detailed Description of Hardware
The MAX16050 evaluation kit (EV kit) evaluates the 4-
channel MAX16050 and 5-channel MAX16051 power-
supply sequencing ICs. The MAX16050 EV kit monitors
up to nine DC-DC converter outputs, thus ensuring
proper power-up and power-down conditions for sys-
tems requiring voltage sequencing. During power-
down, the outputs can be reverse-sequenced by
driving
SHDN
low. The MAX16050 EV kit’s VCC power-
supply inputs require 2.7V to 13.2V and VPULLUP
requires 2.2V to 5.5V.
The MAX16050 EV kit can operate in DC-DC mode or in
demo mode. DC-DC mode uses the MAX16050 and
MAX16051 to control external DC-DC converters, and
without demo mode facilitates stand-alone evaluation
without external DC-DC converters.
The EV kit features
RESET
output signals to indicate an
undervoltage condition, or when shunts are installed
across the jumpers labeled
SHDN
or
FAULT.
Additionally, dedicated
OV_OUT
outputs indicate over-
voltage faults when any of the monitored EV kit IN inputs
go above their overvoltage thresholds. The EV kit also
provides test points OUTPUT1 and OUTPUT2 for low-cur-
rent n-channel MOSFETs N1 and N2, respectively, which
are controlled by the MAX16050 and MAX16051 charge-
pump outputs. Refer to the MAX16050/MAX16051 IC
data sheet for additional information on selecting appro-
priate MOSFETs when driving external MOSFETs using
the charge-pump outputs.
Power-Supply Connections
(U1_VCC, U2_VCC, VPULLUP)
The MAX16050 EV kit requires input voltages of 2.7V to
13.2V connected at the U1_VCC and U2_VCC test
points to power the MAX16050 and MAX16051 con-
trollers, respectively. The power supplies must provide
at least 50mA of current. VPULLUP requires an input
voltage of 2.2V to 5.5V connected to the VPULLUP test
point and supplies power to the EV kit’s pullup resistor
open-drain outputs. The VPULLUP power supply must
provide at least 50mA of current. Additional surface-
mount 1206 PCB pads are provided for adding addition-
al bulk capacitance at C1, C2, and C12 for the EV kit
power-supply inputs. Header pins J3–J6 are available to
use as ground reference for signal and voltage probing.

DC-DC Mode
For DC-DC mode operation, connect the DC-DC con-
verter outputs and EN/SHDN inputs to the EV kit’s IN_
and OUT_ header pins, respectively, and place shunts
across pins 2-3 of headers J1 and J2. Header J1 drives
the U1_IN1–U1_IN4 MAX16050 inputs and header J2
drives the U2_IN1–U2_IN5 MAX16051 inputs. See
Table 1 and Figure 1 for headers J1 and J2 configura-
tion for DC-DC and demo modes of operation. By
default, the input-voltage thresholds are set according
to Table 2.
The sequence delay between each of the OUT_ outputs
is the time required for the external converter voltage to
exceed the undervoltage threshold, the respective
channel open-drain output OUT_ going high imped-
ance, and the additional time delay set by external delay
capacitors C10 and C20. As each IN_ voltage meets its
respective threshold, the next OUT_ in the sequence
goes high impedance (open-drain output), enabling the
next power supply, which is then monitored by the next
input stage. When all the voltages exceed their respec-
tive thresholds,
RESET
goes high after the reset timeout
period set by capacitors C11 and C21.

Demo Mode
The MAX16050 EV kit allows quick evaluation of the
MAX16050 and MAX16051 ICs individually without inter-
facing DC-DC converters to the kit’s IN and OUT header
pins. Place shunts across pins 1-2 and pins 2-3 of head-
ers J1 and J2 to operate the MAX16050 EV kit in demo
mode. In demo mode, VCC or VPULLUP powers the
inputs to the respective IN_ channels with the OUT_
pullup voltage. Demo mode operation requires a mini-
mum 3.5V applied at the VCC or VPULLUP PCB input
pads. See Table 1 and Figure 1 for proper shunt place-
ment when operating the MAX16050 EV kit in demo
mode. Note that when operating the MAX16050 EV kit in
demo mode, both
OV_OUT
signals will be asserted low.
To daisy chain the MAX16050 and MAX16051 while
operating the EV kit in demo mode, See the
Configuring
the MAX16050 EV Kit for Daisy-Chain Operation (SW1)
section.
Input Channel Threshold Voltages (IN_)
The EV kit input-voltage thresholds are set to operate
with 3.3V, 2.5V, 1.8V, 1.5V, and 1.2V (MAX16051) volt-
age systems. All input-voltage thresholds can be recon-
figured by replacing the corresponding resistors, as
shown in Table 2. Refer to the
Resistor Value Selection
section in the MAX16050/MAX16051 IC data sheet to
calculate the new resistor values when reconfiguring
the EV kit input thresholds.
OUT_ Pullup Voltage Selection (JU1, JU10)
Jumpers JU1 and JU10 select the OUT_ open-drain
pullup voltage. Place a shunt across pins 1-2 of
jumpers JU1 and JU10 to select the respective power-
supply inputs (U1_VCC, U2_VCC) as the OUT_ logic-
high voltage. Place shunts across pins 2-3 of jumpers
JU1 and JU10 to select VPULLUP as the OUT_ logic-
high voltage. See Table 3 for proper jumper settings for
OUT_’s logic-high voltage configuration.

U1_VCC or U2_VCC inputs with power supplies greater
than 5.5V, verify that shunts are installed across pins 2-3
of jumpers JU1 and JU10 to prevent operating the open-
drain logic outputs above the maximum voltage rating.

Charge-Pump Outputs (CP_OUT)
The EV kit features test points (U1_CP_OUT,
U2_CP_OUT) to monitor the MAX16050 and MAX16051
charge-pump outputs. PCB pads are also available for
the installation of low-current SOT23 footprint n-channel
MOSFETs at N1 and N2.
The EV kit’s charge-pump outputs can also be used as
the pullup voltages for open-drain output OUT3 using
jumpers JU3 and JU12. See Table 5 for configuring
OUT3 to the respective charge-pump outputs.

and simultaneous power-down operation. Install shunts
across pins 1-2 of jumpers JU2 and JU11 to initiate a
power-up sequence. Install a shunt across pins 2-3 to
power down the channels and to assert
RESET.

MAX16050 Sequence Order
(JU4, JU5, JU6)
Jumpers JU4, JU5, and JU6 configure the MAX16050
sequencing order. The jumper settings allow up to 24
different power-up combinations. The MAX16051 does
not feature programmable power-supply sequencing
and powers up in a fixed order from U2_OUT1–U2_
OUT5. See Table 6 to configure the sequencing order
for U1_OUT1–U1_OUT4.
The voltage threshold of each analog EN input is config-
ured to 3.17V using resistors R1/R2 (U1) and R20/R22
(U2). Use the following equation to calculate a new R1 or
