Battery Power-Up Logic with Overvoltage and Overcurrent Protection
General Description
The MAX4919B/MAX4920B/MAX4921B overvoltage protection controllers protect low-voltage systems against high-voltage faults up to +28V. An internal 1.8A (min) pFET with low RON (100mΩ) switches a battery to the load and also protects the battery against short-circuit faults. When a short circuit occurs, the current through the internal pFET is limited for a blanking period. If the short condition is present after the blanking period, the switch is latched off and remains off until one of the input signals (IN, HP_PWR, PWR_ON) is cycled. The pFET is turned on by a logic-high voltage at PWR_HOLD, HP_PWR, PWR_ON, or IN .
