MAX40203 Evaluation Kit
Evaluates: MAX40203
General Description
The MAX40203 evaluation kit (EV kit) provides a proven
design to evaluate the MAX40203 “ideal-diode”. This EV
kit demonstrates the MAX40203 in a space-saving 5-pin
SOT23 (MAX40203AUK+). This EV kit can be used to
evaluate the MAX40203AUK+ as well.
The MAX40203 EV kit PCB comes with two
MAX40203AUK+ devices installed. The MAX40203
device is a current-switch, which drops so little voltage as
to approximate an “ideal diode”.
The MAX40203 is also available in a tiny 0.8mm x 0.8mm
4-bump WLP with a 0.35mm bump pitch and has lower
voltage drop. These devices operate over the automotive
-40°C to +125° C temperature range.

+6V DC power supply
Electronic load capable of sinking 1A ( e.g., HP6060B)
Precision voltmeter
3. Connect the voltmeter across the V
DD
and OUT pads.
4. Verify all the shunts are in default positions, as shown
in
Table 1.
5. Do not install J3.
6. Turn on the power supply.
7. Turn on the electronic load and verify that the current
flowing is equal to the set value of 500mA.
8. Verify that the forward voltage or (V
DD
– V
OUT
)
voltmeter reading is approximately 100mV.
9. Turn off the electronic load.
10.Set the electronic load to sink 100mA.
11. Turn on the electronic load.
12.Verify that the forward voltage or (V
DD
– V
OUT
)
voltmeter reading is approximately 28mV.
Procedure
The EV kit is fully assembled and tested. Follow the below
instructions to verify board operation.
Caution: Do not
turn on the power supply or the electronic load until
all the connections are complete.
1. Set the DC power supply to 3.6V output. Connect the
positive terminal of the 3.6V supply to the V
DD
pad.
Connect the negative terminal of the 3.6V supply to the
GND pad.
2. Connect the electronic load’s positive terminal to the
OUT pad and the negative terminal to the GND pad
and set to 500mA sink.

Detailed Description of Hardware
Theory of Operation
The MAX40203 EV kit provides a proven design to evaluate
the MAX40203 5-pin SOT23, space-saving, “ideal-diode.”
The device blocks reverse voltages and passes current
when forward-biased, just as a normal diode would. The
device, when forward-biased and enabled, conducts with
as little as 100mV of voltage drop while carrying currents
as high as 500mA. At higher currents (up to 1A), the
voltage drop increases linearly. The MAX40203 protects
itself, and any down-stream circuitry, from overtemperature
conditions.
When disabled (EN = low), the MAX40203 can block
voltages up to 6V in either direction, making it suitable
for most low-voltage portable electronic devices. The low
(300nA, typ.) supply current is independent of the load
current. The MAX40203 operates from supplies within the
range of 1.2V and 5.5V.
The two “ideal-diode” devices may be used independently
or together. The PCB circuit mimics a typical wall adaptor/
battery-charging circuit having different V
DD1
and V
DD2
.
They are connected to the common output, where the
load is connected.
When used independently or together, enable inputs EN1
and EN2 turn the device on or off. The device that is
turned on conducts current to the load. The device that
is turned off does not conduct current to the load from its
V
DD
input.
