MAX20461EVKIT#

MAX20461EVKIT# is a MAX20461 evaluation kit that demonstrates the MAX20461 automotive high-current, high-efficiency, step-down DC-DC converter with integrated USB Type-C DFP controller and 1GHz bandwidth USB 2.0 D+/D- protection switches, which provide ESD and short-to-battery protection for low-voltage transceivers. The MAX20461 features integrated host-charger port detection circuitry that adheres to the USB Type-C specification, the USB-IF BC1.2 battery-charging specification, Apple iPod/iPhone/iPad® and Samsung® charge-detection termination resistors, and Chinese Telecommunication Industry Standard YD/T 1591-2009. The EV kit contains an I2C-enabled MAX20461. The I2C interface allows for flexible configuration, detailed fault diagnostics, and access to the on-chip ADC that reports die temperature, output voltage, and output current. The I2C features are easily accessed using the Maxim MINIQUSB module and the provided example GUI.

• Configurable charge-detection modes: USB-C 3.0A, 1.5A, 0.5A and USB-IF BC1.2 CDP, DCP
• Automatic USB voltage adjustment by integrated DC-DC converter (275kHz to 2.2MHz)
• Proven PCB layout
• Fully assembled and tested
