MAX14720AEWA+

Overview

The MAX14720AEWA+ is a high-efficiency, eight-output low-voltage Power Management IC (PMIC) designed for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). It operates within an input voltage range of 1.71 V to 5.5 V and delivers output voltages adjustable from 900 mV to 5 V. The device features ultra-low operating supply currents of 900 nA and 1.1 uA. Packaged in an 8-WLP format, it integrates multiple regulators to support complex power requirements in automotive environments.

Feature Summary

• Integrates eight independent output channels for comprehensive power distribution
• Optimized for high efficiency in low-voltage automotive applications
• Features ultra-low quiescent current consumption for battery preservation

Applications

• Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)
• Automotive sensor hubs
• In-vehicle infotainment power management

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix and package variant against the official Analog Devices datasheet to ensure compatibility with your design. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for obsolescence notices, as availability may be restricted. Ensure the ordering information matches the exact electrical specifications required for your ADAS implementation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring multiple regulated outputs from a single low-voltage source. It is suitable for space-constrained automotive PCBs due to its compact packaging. Evaluate the total load current requirements across all eight channels to ensure the PMIC can handle the thermal and electrical loads without exceeding its maximum ratings.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX14720 series of multi-output PMICs from Maxim Integrated, now part of Analog Devices. These devices are engineered specifically for the stringent power and size constraints found in modern automotive electronics. The series provides a consolidated solution for managing various voltage rails needed by sensors and processing units.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the official Analog Devices replacement guide for qualified alternatives. Verify that any substitute maintains the same eight-channel configuration and automotive-grade temperature ratings.
