50mA/100mA Current-Limit Switches with NO-LOAD Flag in µDFN
General DescriptionThe MAX4826–MAX4831 family of switches has internal
current limiting to prevent host devices from being
damaged due to faulty load conditions. These analog
switches have a low 0.7Ωon-resistance and operate
from a +2.3V to +5.5V input voltage range. These
devices are available with guaranteed 50mA and
100mA current limits, making them ideal for load-
switching applications. In addition to the current-limit
fault flag (FFLG), an open-drain no-load flag indicator
(NOLD) notifies the system when the current through
the switch is less than 10mA (MAX4826–MAX4829), or
5mA (MAX4830/MAX4831).
When the switch is on and a load is connected to the
port, a guaranteed blanking time of 14ms ensures that
the transient voltages settle down. If, after this blanking
time, the load current is greater than the current limit,
the MAX4826/MAX4828/MAX4830 enter a latchoff state
where the switch is turned off, and FFLGis issued to
the microprocessor. The switch can be turned on again
by cycling the power or ON.
The MAX4827/MAX4829/MAX4831 have an autoretry
feature where the switch turns off after the blanking
time, and then continuously checks to see if the over-
load condition is present. The current-limit fault flag
(FFLG) is issued and remains low until after the fault
condition is removed. The switch remains on after the
overload condition disappears.
The MAX4826–MAX4831 operate over the extended
-40°C to +85°C temperature range, and are available in a
tiny space-saving, 1mm x 1.5mm, 6-pin µDFN package.

MAX4826–MAX4831
Detailed DescriptionThe MAX4826–MAX4831 are forward-/reverse-current-
limited switches that operate from a +2.3V to +5.5V
input voltage range and guarantee a 50mA and 100mA
minimum current-limit threshold for different options.
The voltage drop across an internal sense resistor is
compared to two reference voltages to indicate a for-
ward- or reverse-current-limit fault. When the load cur-
rent exceeds the preset current limit for greater than
the fault-blanking time, the switch opens.
The MAX4827/MAX4829/MAX4831 have an autoretry
function that turns on the switch again after an internal
retry time expires. If the faulty load condition is still pre-
sent after the blanking time, the switch turns off again
and the cycle is repeated. If the faulty load condition is
not present, the switch remains on.
The MAX4826/MAX4828/MAX4830 do not have the
autoretry option, and the switch remains in latchoff mode
until ON or the input power is cycled from high to low
and then high again.
The undervoltage lockout (UVLO) circuit prevents erro-
neous switch operation when the input voltage goes too
low during startup conditions.
Reverse-Current ProtectionThe MAX4826–MAX4831 limit the reverse current (VOUT
to VIN) from exceeding the maximum IREVvalue. The
switch is shut off and FFLGis asserted if the reverse-
current-limit condition persists for more than the blank-
ing time. This feature prevents excessive reverse cur-
rents from flowing through the device.
Switch-On/Off ControlToggle ON high to enable the current-limited switches.
The switches are continuously on only if VINexceeds
the UVLO threshold (typically 2V) and there is no fault.
When a forward-/reverse-current fault is present or the
die exceeds the thermal-shutdown temperature of
+150°C, OUT is internally disconnected from IN, and
the supply current decreases to 8µA (latchoff). The
switch is now operating in one of its off states. The
switch off state also occurs when driving ON low, thus
reducing the supply current (shutdown) to 0.01µA.
Table 1 illustrates the ON/OFF state of the MAX4826–
MAX4831 current-limit switches.
