General Description
The MAX16913/MAX16913A high-voltage high-side
current-sense switches feature internal current limiting
to prevent system damage due to fault conditions. The
MAX16913/MAX16913A input voltage range extends
from 5V to 18V, making them ideal for providing phantom power to remote radio-frequency low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) in automotive applications.
The MAX16913/MAX16913A monitor the load current
and provide an analog output voltage proportional to
the sensed load current. In addition to current sensing,
accurate internal current-limiting circuitry protects the
input supply against both overload and short-circuit
conditions. Two open-drain fault indicator outputs notify
the microprocessor when a short circuit, an open-load
condition, or a short-to-battery condition exists. For the
MAX16913A, the open-load threshold is externally
adjustable using a resistive divider.
A fault-blanking feature enables the circuit to ignore
momentary faults, such as those caused by the initial
charging of a capacitive load when hot swapping,
preventing false alarms to the system. Built-in thermaloverload protection turns off the switch when the die
temperature exceeds +150°C (min). The MAX16913/
MAX16913A also feature a short-to-battery detection
every time the internal switch turns on. These devices
provide an active-high control input to put the devices
in low-power shutdown mode.
The MAX16913/MAX16913A are available in the 16-pin
QSOP package and operate over the -40°C to +105°C
temperature range.
