MAX20046 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX20046 evaluation kit (EV kit) demonstrates
the MAX20046 automotive Hi-Speed USB 2.0 protector
switch IC, featuring overvoltage protection (OVP), electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, and undervoltage lockout (UVLO)/overcurrent protection (OCP) for automotive
USB applications.
The device protects the USB BUS, D+, and D- data lines
from overvoltage conditions, such as a short-to-battery
and ESD events. UVLO protects the BUS against lowvoltage conditions such as a short-to-ground. The BUS
OCP uses a blanking period allowing momentary BUS
shorts to be ignored. All faults can be monitored using the
FAULT output signal.
The device can pass high-speed USB differential (D+
and D-) signals up to 480Mbps and has a low 500mΩ
RON (max) for the BUS and a 3.3Ω RON (typ) for the D+
and D- lines. The EV kit is powered by the USB BUS. An
on-board MAX15007A automotive regulator provides the
IN reference voltage. If a 60mA/120mA current threshold
is desired, the MAX20046GTC/V+ can be ordered and
interchanged with U1.
Quick Start
Required Equipment
● MAX20046 EV kit
● 5V, 2A DC power supply (Supply A)
● 18V, 2A DC power supply (Supply B)
● Logic function generator
● Oscilloscope
Procedure
The EV kit is fully assembled and tested. Follow the
steps below to verify board operation. Caution: Do not
turn on the power supplies until all connections are
completed.
1)
Verify that shunts are installed as follows:
• JU1: Pins 1-2 (MAX20046 BUS switch disabled)
• JU2: Pins 1-2 (IN connected to on-board 3.3V
reference)
2)
Set the Supply A output to 5V, the Supply B output to
18V, and disable both outputs.
3)
Benefits and Features
Set the logic function generator as follows: 3VP-P, 1.5V
DC offset square wave, 500kHz, and disable the output.
4)
Connect the Supply A positive output to the red BUS
test point on the EV kit and connect the supply ground
to the nearby black GND test point.
● USB BUS Undervoltage Lockout
5)
Connect the Supply B ground to the GND test point
close to the HVBUS test point on the EV kit. Connect
a voltage probe test lead to the Supply B positive output for later use.
6)
Using a Type A USB receptacle inserted into J3,
connect the logic function generator to D+ and GND.
7)
Enable both power-supply outputs.
8)
Enable the function generator output.
9)
Install a shunt on jumper JU1, pins 2-3 (MAX20046
BUS switch enabled).
● Protects USB BUS, D+, and D- Signals from
Overvoltages Up to 18V and ESD Events
● 23mA/45mA (typ) USB BUS Overcurrent-Protection
Threshold
● 1ms Overcurrent Blanking Time
● Passes 480Mbps USB Data Signals
● Low On-Resistance
• BUS: 500mΩ (max)
• D+ and D-: 3.3Ω (typ)
● FAULT Output Signal
● USB Powered
● Fully Assembled and Tested
10) Use the oscilloscope to probe the HVBUS and HVD+
test points.
● Evaluates the MAX20046 IC in a 12-Pin TQFN
Package
11) Verify that HVBUS is 5V and that the waveform on HVD+
is a 500kHz square wave and is approximately 3VP-P.
Ordering Information appears at end of data sheet.

12) Momentarily touch the HVBUS test point on the EV
kit with the voltage probe from the Supply B positive
output. The FAULT signal asserts a logic-low while
the fault is present.

Detailed Description of Hardware
that turns off the switch between HVBUS and BUS during
an overvoltage on HVBUS; however, energy stored in the
wiring inductance can cause the HVBUS node voltage
to quickly increase. The RC snubber network limits the
positive voltage spike caused by wiring inductance.
The IC protects the USB BUS, D+, and D- data lines from
overvoltage conditions, such as a short-to-battery up to
18V and ESD events up to 25kV (air) and 8kV (contact).
The OVP feature protects the D+ and D- lines against
high-voltage conditions such as a short-to-BUS. The
UVLO feature protects the BUS line against low-voltage
conditions such as a short-to-ground. The BUS OCP
threshold is fixed at 23mA/45mA (typ). A 1ms blanking
period allows momentary BUS shorts to be ignored, such
as those created by hot-swapping a capacitive load. All
faults can be monitored using the FAULT PCB pad, pulled
up to IN through resistor R1.
Jumper Settings
The MAX20046 EV kit demonstrates the MAX20046 automotive Hi-Speed USB 2.0 protector switch IC, featuring
OVP, ESD protection, UVLO protection, and OCP for automotive USB applications.
The device can pass high-speed USB differential (D+ and
D-) signals up to 480Mbps, and has a low 500mΩ RON
(max) for BUS and a 3.3Ω RON (typ) for the D+ and Ddata lines. The EV kit is powered by the USB BUS. The
3.3V automotive regulator (U2, MAX15007A) provides an
on- board IN reference voltage. A user can provide a 3V to
3.6V IN reference voltage across the VIN and GND PCB
pads. The MAX20046 (U1) IC’s automotive operating
temperature range is from -40°C to +105°C.
Long USB wire lengths contribute to increased wiring
inductance, resulting in slow di/dt and dV/dt during a
“short to 18V” event. The device includes internal circuitry
BUS Switch Enable (JU1)
Jumper JU1 on the EV kit enables the device’s BUS
switch. Test points EN and GND are provided to control
U1’s enable signal with an external controller. Refer to the
EN Input section in the Electrical Characteristics table in
the MAX20046 IC data sheet for proper EN logic levels
when using an external controller. See Table 1 for proper
JU1 jumper settings.
IN Reference Voltage Selection (JU2)
Jumper JU2 on the EV kit selects the reference voltage
for the device’s IN pin. IN can either be supplied by the
USB BUS through the on-board automotive 3.3V regulator
(U2, MAX15007A), or by a user-supplied reference voltage. Test points VIN and GND are provided to supply the
device with an external 3V to 3.6V reference voltage. See
Table 2 for proper JU2 jumper settings.
ISET OCP Threshold Selection (JU3)
Jumper JU3 on the EV kit selects the current threshold
for OCP (overcurrent protection). With pins 1-2 shorted,
the current threshold is 45mA. With pins 2-3 shorted, the
current threshold is 23mA. See Table 3 for proper JU3
jumper settings.
