MAXM17635AMG+T

The MAXM17635 AMG+T is Maxim Integrated’s MAXM modular development module built around the MAX17635 power-management IC in an Analog Micro Module (AMG) package. The “+T” variant adds extra test/connectivity features for rapid evaluation.
What it is used for:
- Quick prototyping and evaluation of high-efficiency DC-DC power solutions (buck/boost/topologies) for automotive and industrial applications.
Key points:
- Wide input range and multi-rail capabilities
- Synchronous buck/boost power-management functions
- Programmable outputs, protection features (overvoltage/overcurrent), and diagnostic signals
- I2C/SPI control interfaces; USB or UART options on some variants
- On-board telemetry, resistors, and test headers for measurements
What you get and how to use:
- Reference designs, schematics, BOM, and evaluation software/GUI
- Plug-and-play with a PC for parameter configuration, monitoring, and efficiency testing
- Learn via the datasheet and user guide on Maxim’s site; used for design exploration and validating PMIC topologies.

Direct 1:1 equivalents for MAXM17635AMG+T aren’t published. It’s a Maxim power-management module; substitutes depend on its specs. Please share: input voltage range, output rails and currents, number of rails, efficiency, protections, packaging. With that, I can propose closest cross-references from TI, Analog Devices, On Semiconductor, Infineon, or suitable MAXM-family alternatives.

Here are the typical features of the MAXM17635AMG+T module (an Automotive-grade MAX17635 evaluation board):
