MAX17526BATP+T

Overview

The MAX17526BATP+T is a specialized power management IC designed for industrial applications, featuring integrated system protection capabilities. It operates within an input voltage range of 5.5V to 60V and supports a continuous current limit of 6A. The device provides comprehensive protection mechanisms including overvoltage, undervoltage, and reverse-voltage protection. Packaged in a compact 20-WQFN (5x5mm) exposed pad surface-mount package, it is rated for operation across a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrated system protection with overvoltage, undervoltage, and reverse-voltage safeguards
• High input voltage capability up to 60V for robust industrial power handling
• Compact 20-WQFN package design optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts

Applications

• Industrial power supply systems requiring high reliability
• Automotive electronics demanding robust voltage protection
• General-purpose DC-DC converter input protection stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging configuration when sourcing. Confirm that the component matches the 20-WQFN (5x5mm) footprint requirements for your PCB design. Ensure compatibility with the specified -40°C to 125°C operating temperature range for your intended environment. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest datasheet to confirm pinout and electrical characteristics before final integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single IC solution is required to handle both current limiting and multi-faceted voltage protection in high-voltage industrial environments. It is suitable for designs needing protection against reverse polarity and transient voltage spikes without external discrete components. Consider the 6A current limit and 60V input range as primary constraints for load and source specifications.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Olympus series of specialized power management ICs from Analog Devices/Maxim Integrated. It complements other Himalaya and uSLIC family products by offering dedicated protection rather than regulation. The MAX17526 series focuses on safeguarding downstream components in harsh electrical environments common in industrial automation.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify functional equivalence carefully if considering alternatives, specifically regarding the 60V input rating and 6A current limit specifications.
