Pin Description
PIN NAME FUNCTION
1 CSN2
Current-Sense Differential Amplifier Negative Input for Output2. Connect CSN2 to the negative
terminal of the sense resistor. The differential voltage between CSP2 and CSN2 is internally amplified
by the current-sense amplifier (A
V(CS)
= 36V/V).
2 CSP2
Current-Sense Differential Amplifier Positive Input for Output2. Connect CSP2 to the positive terminal
of the sense resistor. The differential voltage between CSP2 and CSN2 is internally amplified by the
current-sense amplifier (A
V(CS)
= 36V/V).
3 EAOUT2
Voltage Error-Amplifier Output2. Connect to an external gain-setting feedback resistor. The error-
amplifier gain determines the output voltage load regulation for adaptive voltage positioning. This
output also serves as the compensation network connection from EAOUT2 to EAN2. A resistive
network results in a drooped output voltage regulation characteristic. An integrator configuration
results in very tight output voltage regulation (see the Adaptive Voltage Positioning section).
4 EAN2
Voltage Error-Amplifier Inverting Input for Output2. Connect a resistive divider from V
OUT2
to EAN2 to
AGND to set the output voltage. A compensation network connects from EAOUT2 to EAN2. A
resistive network results in a drooped output-voltage-regulation characteristic. An integrator
configuration results in very tight output-voltage regulation (see the Adaptive Voltage Positioning
section).
5 CLP2
Current-Error Amplifier Output2. Compensate the current loop by connecting an R-C network from
CLP2 to AGND.
6 REF
3.3V Reference Output. Bypass REF to AGND with a minimum 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. REF can
source up to 200µA for external loads.
7 RT/CLKIN
External Clock Input or Internal Frequency-Setting Connection. Connect a resistor from RT/CLKIN to
AGND to set the switching frequency. Connect an external clock at RT/CLKIN for external frequency
synchronization.
8 AGND Analog Ground
9 MODE
Mode Function Input. MODE selects between a single-output dual phase or a dual-output buck
regulator. When MODE is grounded, VEA1 and VEA2 connect to CEA1 and CEA2, respectively (see
Figure 1) and the device operates as a two-output, out-of-phase buck regulator. When MODE is
connected to REG (logic high), VEA2 is disconnected and VEA1 is routed to both CEA1 and CEA2.
10 CLP1
Current-Error Amplifier Output1. Compensate the current loop by connecting an R-C network from
CLP1 to AGND.
11 EAN1
Voltage Error Amplifier Inverting Input for Output1. Connect a resistive divider from V
OUT1
to EAN1 to
regulate the output voltage. A compensation network connects from EAOUT1 to EAN1. A resistive
network results in a drooped output-voltage-regulation characteristic. An integrator configuration
results in very tight output voltage regulation (see the Adaptive Voltage Positioning section).
12 EAOUT1
Voltage Error Amplifier Output1. Connect to an external gain-setting feedback resistor. The error
amplifier gain determines the output-voltage-load regulation for adaptive voltage positioning. This
output also serves as the compensation network connection from EAOUT1 to EAN1. A resistive
network results in a drooped output-voltage-regulation characteristic. An integrator configuration
results in very tight output-voltage regulation (see the Adaptive Voltage Positioning section).
13 CSP1
Current-Sense Differential Amplifier Positive Input for Output1. Connect CSP1 to the positive terminal
of the sense resistor. The differential voltage between CSP1 and CSN1 is internally amplified by the
current-sense amplifier (A
V(CS)
= 36V/V).

Detailed Description
The MAX5066 switching power-supply controller can
be configured in two ways. With the MODE input high, it
operates as a single-output, dual-phase, step-down
switching regulator where each output is 180° out of
phase. With the MODE pin connected low, the
MAX5066 operates as a dual-output, step-down switch-
ing regulator. The average current-mode control topolo-
gy of the MAX5066 offers high-noise immunity while
having benefits similar to those of peak current-mode
control. Average current-mode control has the intrinsic
ability to accurately limit the average current sourced
by the converter during a fault condition. When a fault
condition occurs, the error amplifier output voltage
(EAOUT1 or EAOUT2) that connects to the positive
input of the transconductance amplifier (CA1 or CA2) is
clamped thus limiting the output current.
The MAX5066 contains all blocks necessary for two
independently regulated average current-mode PWM
regulators. It has two voltage error amplifiers (VEA1
and VEA2), two current-error amplifiers (CEA1 and
CEA2), two current-sensing amplifiers (CA1 and CA2),
two PWM comparators (CPWM1 and CPWM2), and dri-
vers for both low- and high-side power MOSFETs (see
Figure 1). Each PWM section is also equipped with a
pulse-by-pulse, current-limit protection and a fault inte-
gration block for hiccup protection.
