MAX1940 - Maxim

MAX1940 Triple USB Switch

The MAX1940 triple current-limited switch with autoreset supplies a guaranteed 500mA load per channel in accordance with USB specifications. The MAX1940 operates from a 4V to 5.5V input supply and consumes only 60µA of quiescent current when operating and only 3µA in standby. Selectable active-high/active-low control logic and independent shutdown controls f.

Features

to protect the USB port. Built-in thermal-overload protection turns off the switch when the die temperature exceeds +160°C. Accurate internal current-limiting circuitry protects the input supply against both overload and shortcircuit conditions. Independent open-drain fault signals ( FAULTA , FAULTB , and FAULTC ) notify the microprocessor when a thermal-overload, current-limit, undervoltage lockout (UVLO), or short-circuit fault occurs. A 20ms fault-blanking feature enables the circuit to ignore momentary faults, such as those caused when hot-swapping a capacitive load, preventing false alarm.
