65V, Low-Quiescent-Current, High-Voltage Linear
Regulators with μP Reset and Watchdog Timer

General Description

The MAX5023/MAX5024 high-voltage linear regulators
operate from a +6.5V to +65V input voltage and deliver up
to 150mA of output current. These devices consume only
60μA of quiescent current with no load and withstand a
-60V reverse-battery voltage at the input. The MAX5023/
MAX5024 include an active-low internal microprocessor
(μP) reset circuit that asserts when the regulator output
drops below the preset output voltage threshold by 7.5% or
12.5%, depending on the device selected. Both devices are
available with a fixed +3.3V or +5V output. These devices
are short-circuit protected and include thermal shutdown.
In addition to an enable input to turn on or off the regulator, the MAX5023/MAX5024 include a HOLD input that
allows for the implementation of a self-holding circuit
without requiring external components. Setting HOLD low
after enabling the regulator, forces the regulator to remain
on even if EN is subsequently set low. Releasing HOLD
shuts down the regulator.
The MAX5023 includes a watchdog input that monitors a
pulse train from the μP and generates reset pulses if the
watchdog input remains high or low for a duration longer
than the 1.6s watchdog timeout period. The MAX5024
includes a SET input which, when connected to ground,
selects a preset output voltage of +3.3V (MAX5024S/
MAX5024T) or +5V (MAX5024L/MAX5024M). Set the
adjustable output voltage by connecting SET to the regulator’s output through a resistive-divider network.
The MAX5023/MAX5024 operate over the automotive
temperature range (-40°C to +125°C) and are available in a
thermally enhanced, surface-mount 8-pin SO-EP package.
