Low-Power, Small, High-Voltage Detection/Protection Circuits Operate Up to 72V
| Note to Editor: The MAX16010-MAX16014 are overvoltage
protection/detection circuits that operate from 5.5V to 72V. These
circuits are ideal for high-voltage applications as found in
automotive, industrial, server, and battery stack applications. The
devices have different integrated functions, all providing a range of
overvoltage/undervoltage protection and/or monitoring. All devices
are offered in a small, 3mm x 3mm TDFN, and are fully specified from
-40 degrees Celsius to +125 degrees Celsius. |
SUNNYVALE, CA-January 27, 2006-Maxim Integrated Products (NASDAQ:
MXIM) introduces the MAX16010-MAX16014 overvoltage protection
circuits designed for systems with high transient voltages as found
in automotive, industrial, and telecommunication applications. These
devices operate from 5.5V to 72V, and can be configured to provide
overvoltage, undervoltage, or window monitoring while consuming only
20 microamps of quiescent current.
The MAX16010 and MAX16011 have two independent comparators for
monitoring both overvoltage and undervoltage conditions. The MAX16010
provides complementary enable inputs, while the MAX16011 offers an
active-high enable input and a logic input to invert one of the two
outputs.
Offering greater design flexibility, the MAX16012 has a comparator
providing access to both inverting and noninverting inputs, along
with a reference output. The device can be configured to monitor
either overvoltage or undervoltage conditions.
The MAX16013 and MAX16014 are overvoltage protection circuits capable
of driving two external p-channel MOSFETs to prevent reverse battery
and overvoltage conditions. The MAX16014 also features a latch-off
feature to keep the load disconnected until the power is recycled.
All devices are offered in a small, 3mm x 3mm TDFN package and are
fully specified from -40 degrees Celsius to +125 degrees Celsius.
Prices for these devices start at $1.08 (1000-up, FOB USA).
