General Description
The MAX25252 is a high-efficiency, five-output ASIL B
PMIC with three DC-DC converters, and two high-PSRR
LDOs, with OV/UV monitoring on all outputs. OUT1 is a
1A high-voltage, synchronous step-down converter operating from power over coax. OUT2 and OUT3 are low
voltage synchronous step-down converters and provide a
0.75V to 3.9375V output voltage range. OUT2 and OUT3
can deliver up to 1.7A current respectively for the highmegapixel cameras and high-speed serializers. LDO4 and
LDO5 deliver up to 0.4A and 0.9A of current to power the
secondary rails of the imager and a serializer. All outputs
achieve ±1.5% output accuracy over load, line, and temperature range. Overvoltage and undervoltage for each
output are monitored and their statuses are communicated through RESET and I2C.
The device features temperature monitoring with external
NTC. The IC accurately measures PCB temperature and
flags the temperature warning through RESET.
The device features a 2.1MHz fixed-frequency PWM
mode for better noise immunity and load transient response. The 2.1MHz frequency operation allows for the
use of all ceramic capacitors and minimizes external components. The programmable spread-spectrum frequency
modulation minimizes radiated electromagnetic emissions.
The I2C programmable output voltages and sequencing
increases flexibility for different image sensors and configurations. Other features include soft-start, overcurrent,
and overtemperature protections.
