max14918

Category: Datasheet/Specs
Product Number: max14918, max1491

Is it correct that the MAX14918 has no diagnostic Indication when an Output is in current limitation (but no thermal overload) ?

  • In the event of a current limit or short-circuit the thermal shutdown will generally need to kick in within milliseconds or soone, the switch will then cycle between active current limit and thermal shutdown until the fault condition is removed. Any thermal shutdown event will trigger the \Fault pin to transition low and is also relayed back to the SPI controller using the FLT_ and LFLT_ per channel bits.
