What this buck regulator delivers
The -40°C to 125°C junction temperature range covers the full industrial and automotive under-hood envelope. The 20-TQFN (5x5) package requires a solid thermal via pattern under the pad.
No synchronous rectifier — what that means for the BOM
The MAX15020ATP+ does not integrate a synchronous rectifier. An external Schottky catch diode is required in the standard buck topology.
Active lifecycle — no LTB pressure
The MAX15020ATP+ carries an Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant.
