General Description

The MAX4838–MAX4841 are overvoltage protection ICs that protect low-voltage systems against voltages of up to 28V.

If the input voltage exceeds the overvoltage trip level, the MAX4838–MAX4841 turn off the low-cost external N-channel FET(s) to prevent damage to the protected components.

An internal charge pump eliminates the need for external capacitors and drives the FET gate for a simple, robust solution.

Key Features

include a 15kV ESD-protected input (when bypassed with a 1µF capacitor) and a shutdown pin (EN) to turn off the device (MAX4838/MAX4840). All devices are offered in a small 6-pin SC70 package and are specified for operation from -40°C to +85°C. o Overvoltage Protection Up to 28V o Preset 7.4V or 5.8V Overvoltage Trip Level o Drive Low-Cost NMOS FET o Internal 50ms Startup Delay o Internal Charge Pump o Undervoltage Lockout o 15kV ESD-Protected Input o Voltage Fault FLAG Indicator o 6-Pin SC70 Pa.
