MAX17526CATP+

MAX17526CATP+ is a current limiter with OV, UV, reverse protection, and power limit. It offers a unique feature to limit power drawn from supplies or delivered to loads, amongst a host of protection features. These protection features include adjustable input overvoltage and undervoltage protection, positive and negative input voltage protection, overcurrent protection, reverse-current protection and overtemperature protection. The device features a built-in low RON (30mohm typ) NFET and an integrated gate drive for an optional external NFET. The device highlights a power limit feature that allows programmed reduction in current limit, as an inverse function of an external voltage. Input or output power limit is achieved by limiting the current through the device as a function of input or output voltages. Applications include industrial power distribution systems, control and automation, motion control drives, human machine interfaces.
