MAX16924GGM/VY+

Overview

The MAX16924GGM/VY+ is a 4-channel automotive Power Management IC (PMIC) featuring integrated preboost converters. Designed for TFT LCD applications, it provides regulated output voltages required by display panels. The device operates within an ambient temperature range of -40°C to +105°C and is qualified under AEC-Q100 standards for automotive reliability. It utilizes a TQFN package suitable for surface-mount assembly, ensuring compact integration in space-constrained electronic systems.

Feature Summary

• Integrates four independent power channels with dedicated preboost functionality for efficient voltage regulation.
• Automotive-grade qualification ensures robust performance and reliability in demanding vehicular environments.
• Optimized specifically for driving and powering TFT LCD displays in automotive infotainment and instrument clusters.

Applications

• Automotive TFT LCD panel power supply
• Vehicle infotainment system display drivers
• Digital instrument cluster backlighting and logic power
• Head-up display (HUD) power management

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'VY+' against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm the exact pinout, thermal pad configuration, and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure that the procurement channel provides traceability to Analog Devices Inc. or Maxim Integrated. Confirm that the received components match the AEC-Q100 qualification status required for your automotive application before integration into the final design.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing power architectures for automotive TFT displays requiring integrated preboost capabilities. It is appropriate for applications needing multiple regulated rails from a single source. Consider the thermal dissipation characteristics of the TQFN package relative to the PCB copper area. Verify input voltage ranges and load requirements align with the device's specified electrical limits to ensure stable operation across the full automotive temperature spectrum.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Maxim Integrated portfolio, now part of Analog Devices Inc., focusing on specialized power management solutions. The MAX16924 series targets the automotive display market, addressing the need for high-efficiency, multi-rail power delivery. It complements other display interface controllers and serializers/deserializers in complete video transmission and power systems.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the official Analog Devices replacement guide for direct pin-to-pin alternatives or upgraded revisions. Generic PMICs may not support the specific preboost architecture or automotive qualification levels required for this application. Verify compatibility with existing PCB footprints and control signals before substituting.
