MAX17612CATB+

Overview

The MAX17612CATB+ is a power load distribution switch manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates within an input voltage range of 4.5V to 60V and supports a current limit of 250mA. The device features overvoltage and undervoltage protection capabilities, with a supply current of 890µA. It is designed for surface mount installation in a 10-WFDFN exposed pad package (10-TDFN 3x3). The component functions as a PMIC suitable for applications requiring precise power management and protection.

Feature Summary

• Provides integrated overvoltage and undervoltage protection mechanisms
• Supports high input voltage operation up to 60V
• Features low supply current consumption for efficient power management

Applications

• Overvoltage protection circuits
• Undervoltage protection systems
• Power load distribution networks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and package variant when sourcing. Confirm availability status as supply conditions may vary. Ensure the component matches the required 10-TDFN footprint and electrical specifications for your design. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with official distributor catalogs to avoid counterfeit or obsolete stock issues.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring robust protection against voltage anomalies in high-voltage DC systems. Consider the 250mA current limit and 60V maximum input rating during circuit design. Evaluate the thermal performance of the exposed pad package for heat dissipation requirements in dense PCB layouts.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX17612 family of power load switches. It is distinct from similar models like the MAX17672, which may have different current ratings or control interfaces. The CATB+ designation indicates a specific commercial temperature grade and lead-free packaging compliant with environmental standards.
