Overvoltage Protectors with USB Charger Detection and ESD Protection
Maxim has introduced the MAX14529E/MAX14530E overvoltage protectors (OVPs) with USB charger detection. These devices employ an integrated MOSFET to protect low-voltage systems against voltage faults up to 28V, thus eliminating the need for an external nFET.
AddiThe MAX14529E/MAX14530E are available in a tiny, 1.5mm x 2mm, 12-bump wafer-level package (WLP), and are fully specified over the -40 degrees Celsius to +85 degrees Celsius extended temperature range. Prices start at $1.40 (1000-up, FOB USA).
