The MAX5072EVKIT is an evaluation kit designed to evaluate the performance of the MAX5072, an integrated circuit controller intended for off-line DC/DC and AC/DC switch-mode power supplies (SMPS). The MAX5072EVKIT provides the necessary components to build a benchmark system for comparing the performance of the controller before and after optimization. The MAX5072EVKIT supports the development of flyback, forward, and bridge-type SMPS topologies.

The MAX5072 is a cost-optimized controller for basic PC power supplies, desktop adapters, telecommunications, consumer, and industrial applications. The IC integrates functions necessary to implement a highly efficient, low component count, low cost, and robust SMPS. It integrates a low-side MOSFET gate driver, voltage regulator, adjustable oscillator, soft-start, current-sensing circuitry, and proprietary internal deadtime management for improved efficiency and light-load operation.

The MAX5072EVKIT includes a reference design that will help users design their own DC/DC or AC/DC SMPS using the MAX5072 controller and other off-the-shelf components. The design is based on a non-isolated buck topology and provides both -5V and 12V outputs with configurable current limits. The evaluation kit includes a USB interface board, allowing users to monitor and adjust the controller\'s operation with the provided graphical user interface (GUI) software. This software provides an easy-to-use platform for exploring and optimizing the MAX5072\'s performance.

The working principle of the MAX5072 can be summarized as follows: when the AC power supply is applied, the overvoltage, undervoltage, and overcurrent protections are enabled, and the soft-start capacitor and current-sensing resistors are supplied with a voltage source, ensuring that the usage of the MAX5072 is safe. When the maximum start up time is reached, the Vcc pin of the MAX5072 will be enabled, providing the switching on signal for the FET switch and start a period of oscillation. The internal oscillator will generate pulse signals according to the oscillation parameter setting, controlling the FET switch and transforming the AC voltage into the DC output voltage. Meanwhile, the output load current is sensed and compared against the current limit, then the pulse signal keeps on adjusting the duty cycle of the FET switch, at the same time monitoring the output voltage to maintain its regulation stability. Finally, the output voltage of the MAX5072 is stabilized at the desired voltage.

In conclusion, the MAX5072EVKIT is an ideal evaluation tool for off-line DC/DC and AC/DC SMPS. The reference design, GUI, and safety features make this evaluation board a valuable part of the SMPS design process. It can help engineers quickly benchmark the controller and optimize its performance for their specific applications.
