MAX16913AGEE+T

The MAX16913AGEE+T is a high-voltage, high-side current-sense switch designed by Analog Devices. It offers internal current limiting to protect systems from fault conditions, with an input voltage range of 5V to 18V, making it suitable for automotive applications like providing phantom power to remote LNAs.

This device monitors load current and provides an analog output proportional to the sensed current. It includes accurate current-limiting circuitry for overload and short-circuit protection. Fault indicator outputs notify microprocessors of short circuits, open loads, or short-to-battery conditions. A fault-blanking feature ignores momentary faults, preventing false alarms. Thermal-overload protection is also integrated, shutting down the switch if the die temperature exceeds +150°C.

The MAX16913AGEE+T is available in a 16-QSOP package and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C. It features an active-high control input for low-power shutdown mode and supports switching phantom power on and off under microcontroller control.

Key features include analog current measurement output, adjustable current limiting up to 340mA maximum, detection of open-load and short-circuit conditions, and open-drain fault signals. It also provides overcurrent blanking during startup and thermal shutdown. The /V versions are AECQ100 qualified.
