General Description
The MAX6665 is a fully integrated thermal switch with
an internal power transistor for driving a cooling fan
rated up to 24V and 250mA. When the MAX6665’s temperature rises above a factory-programmed threshold,
the FANOUT pin becomes active and powers the fan.
The MAX6665 is available with factory-programmed fan
activation threshold temperatures from +40°C to +70°C
in 5°C increments. Accuracy of the fan activation trip
point is ±1°C (typ) and ±3°C (max). The trip point’s hysteresis is pin selectable to 1°C, 4°C, or 8°C. Two opendrain logic outputs indicate overtemperature conditions: WARN is activated when the temperature is
15°C above the fan activation threshold, and OT is activated when the temperature is 30°C above the threshold. These features can be used to safely power down
systems that are overheated.
The MAX6665 operates from a +2.7V to +5.5V power
supply, and the associated fan can be powered from
4.5V to 24V. It is available in an 8-pin SO package and
operates from -40°C to +125°C.

ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
Note 1: Specifications over temperature are guaranteed by design. Parts are 100% production tested at 10°C below the tempera-
ture threshold.
