MAX20078ATE+T 概要

The Analog Devices (formerly Maxim Integrated) MAX20078ATE+T is a high-voltage, synchronous n-channel MOSFET controller for high-current buck LED drivers, packaged in a 16-pin TQFN (3x3 mm) with exposed pad. It operates from 4.5V to 65V supply, drives LEDs via analog or PWM dimming up to a controller output of 10 mA gate drive, and switches at up to 1 MHz using a proprietary average current-mode-control scheme that needs no external loop-compensation network while maintaining nearly constant switching frequency.

An LED driver controller is a switching power supply IC that regulates current through one or more LEDs by modulating an external MOSFET in a buck topology. The MAX20078 sits in the broader category hierarchy of LED driver -> power management IC -> semiconductor, and uses inductor current sensing rather than output current sensing for tighter regulation. Its average current-mode control, lack of compensation-network requirement, and 1 MHz switching capability place it among the most integrated high-brightness LED controllers in its class.

Key features include a 4.5V to 65V input supply range that supports 12V, 24V, and 48V automotive and industrial buses; analog and PWM dimming inputs; integrated high-side and low-side gate drivers for synchronous n-channel MOSFETs; an internal voltage regulator for VCC; and a programmable switching frequency up to 1 MHz. The device supports LED strings up to 60V and is qualified to AEC-Q100 for automotive front-light, daytime-running, and signal-lighting applications. Hysteretic-average current-mode control delivers fast transient response without the type-II/type-III compensation network typical of peak-current-mode parts.

Typical applications include automotive headlamp LED drivers, daytime running lights, turn signals, industrial 24V LED lighting, signage, architectural dimmable fixtures, and high-brightness LED arrays in agricultural or machine-vision illumination. The wide input range, AEC-Q100 qualification, and small TQFN-16 footprint make it equally suited to space-constrained automotive front-end PCBs and high-density industrial drivers.

When designing with the MAX20078, choose the external MOSFET RDS(on), inductor saturation current, and output-capacitor ESR to handle the peak inductor ripple at the programmed switching frequency. Place the input bypass capacitor directly at the BST and IN pins and keep the high-current loop area small. The exposed pad must be soldered to a continuous ground plane for thermal dissipation.

This page synthesizes distributor pricing as of 2026-10-09, AEC-Q100-qualified same-family drop-in alternatives, and PCB-layout design notes that go beyond the manufacturer datasheet.

主な用途

MAX20078ATE+T の用途: 6 件s: Automotive Headlamp LED Driver, Daytime Running Light (DRL) Driver, Industrial 24V LED Lighting Fixture, Architectural Dimmable LED Downlight, Agricultural High-Brightness LED Array, Rear Combination Lamp and Turn Signal.

🚗

Automotive Headlamp LED Driver

The MAX20078ATE+T is a strong fit for 12V/24V automotive headlamp LED drivers because it operates from 4.5V to 65V and is AEC-Q100 qualified, tolerating cold-crank and load-dump transients on the vehicle bus. Its 1 MHz switching frequency keeps the fundamental EMI above the AM broadcast band, easing CISPR 25 Class 5 compliance for front-lighting modules. With analog and PWM dimming inputs, the IC supports daylight-running, low-beam, and high-beam modes from a single driver PCB, replacing multiple discrete LED controllers. Synchronous n-channel gate drivers deliver >95% efficiency at full LED current, reducing thermal stress on the headlamp housing.

💡

Daytime Running Light (DRL) Driver

The MAX20078ATE+T suits DRL applications where compact PCB area and AEC-Q100 qualification are mandatory. Its 16-pin TQFN (3x3 mm) footprint frees board space for the DRL module's tight mechanical envelope, while the 65V input rating tolerates 24V truck-bus environments. The proprietary average current-mode control eliminates the type-III compensation network typical of peak-current-mode parts, reducing BOM cost. PWM dimming at the DIM pin supports DRL-to-position-light transitions without color-temperature shift, preserving daytime visibility signatures.

🏭

Industrial 24V LED Lighting Fixture

The MAX20078ATE+T's 4.5V to 65V input range makes it ideal for 24V industrial lighting fixtures on factory automation buses and 48V PoE-powered luminaires. Synchronous rectification achieves high efficiency across the wide VIN range, while 1 MHz switching shrinks the output inductor and capacitor size compared with 200 kHz legacy designs. The exposed-pad TQFN-16 package dissipates gate-drive losses into a copper ground pour without a heatsink. Analog dimming via 0 to 1.5V on the ADJ pin interfaces with industrial 0-10V dimmers via a simple resistor network.

💡

Architectural Dimmable LED Downlight

For architectural dimmable downlights requiring smooth 1% to 100% dimming without color shift, the MAX20078ATE+T provides PWM dimming that preserves LED color temperature even at very low duty cycles. The wide 4.5V-65V input accepts 12V AC-DC adapters and 48V constant-voltage LED magnetic-driver rails, simplifying SKU consolidation. Synchronous MOSFET driving reduces EMI below 30 MHz, easing residential EMI compliance. The exposed pad allows 1.5W continuous LED drive without additional thermal management.

🌱

Agricultural High-Brightness LED Array

The MAX20078ATE+T drives multi-amp LED arrays used in greenhouse supplemental lighting and horticulture fixtures where high efficiency and 0-10V analog dimming are required. Its 65V input accommodates 48V DC microgrid architectures common in commercial greenhouses, while synchronous rectification maintains >93% efficiency at full load. The exposed-pad package handles gate-drive dissipation during PWM flicker cycles used for photosynthetic spectrum tuning. AEC-Q100 qualification is overkill here but provides headroom for harsh greenhouse humidity and temperature cycling.

🚗

Rear Combination Lamp and Turn Signal

The MAX20078ATE+T suits rear combination lamps (tail, brake, turn signal) because of its AEC-Q100 grade, 4.5V-65V input, and small PCB footprint that fits behind the lamp reflector. PWM dimming supports tail-vs-brake intensity differentiation without additional constant-current ICs. Synchronous buck operation eliminates bulky inductor-rectifier combinations, reducing module weight for the rear-lamp housing. The exposed pad is solderable to a copper slug that doubles as a heat-spreader through the lamp body.

What is the MAX20078ATE+T and what does it do?
The MAX20078ATE+T is a high-voltage synchronous n-channel MOSFET controller for high-current buck LED drivers from Analog Devices (formerly Maxim Integrated).

設計ノート

Route the high-current loop (IN -> high-side MOSFET -> inductor -> low-side MOSFET -> PGND) on the top layer with minimum loop area. Place the input ceramic bypass capacitor (4.7uF X7R minimum, 10uF recommended) within 5 mm of the IN pin and the exposed pad to a continuous ground plane. Keep the LX node copper area small to minimize radiated EMI; the BST capacitor must sit within 3 mm of the BST pin.

Estimated: at VIN=24V, VLED=12V string, and IOUT=1.5A through an external MOSFET pair with 50 mOhms total RDS(on), gate-drive loss plus switching loss is approximately 0.4W dissipated in the MAX20078ATE+T. With theta_JA of approximately 38 C/W on a 1 square-inch copper pour on a 4-layer PCB, junction temperature rises about 15C above ambient - well within the 125C rating but requires the exposed pad to be soldered.

Route the CS and CSN differential traces as a matched pair with 0.5 mm spacing and place a 100-ohm differential impedance filter at the IC pins to reject high-frequency LX-node coupling. Use Kelvin connection to the current-sense resistor to avoid ground bounce. The CSN trace must return directly to the sense resistor ground side, not to the PGND plane, to prevent switching-noise injection into the current loop.

Do not exceed 65V on the IN pin - load-dump transients on 24V automotive systems can spike above 70V without external TVS protection. Add a 65V TVS diode (e.g., SMAJ58A) from IN to GND if the input bus is unprotected. Also ensure the BST-to-LX voltage stays below the 5V abs-max rating by selecting a BST capacitor value per the datasheet formula.

The DIM pin is a digital input with a 1V/2V logic threshold; route the PWM trace away from the LX node to prevent false triggering from switching noise. Add a 10 kOhm pull-down on DIM if it is driven by an open-drain source. The ADJ analog input has high impedance - guard the trace with ground copper on both sides to prevent leakage into the dimming reference.
