MAX17615 Current Limiters

Analog Devices MAX17615 Current Limiters are overvoltage and overcurrent-protection devices designed to adjust protection boundaries for systems against positive and negative input faults. The MAX17615 protects against faults up to +60V and -65V with an output load current of up to 250mA. Analog Devices MAX17615 current limiters offer two internal MOSFETs connected in series with a low cumulative RON of 1.42Ω (typical). The limiters completely block out negative input voltages. Additionally, the device withstands accidental reverse polarity output voltage connection, with magnitudes up to –(65V to VIN)V. The input undervoltage protection can be programmed between 4.25V and 59V, while the overvoltage protection can be independently programmed between 5.5V and 60V. The MAX17615 has an internal undervoltage lockout falling threshold set at 4V (typical).
