MAX20087ATPC/VY+T

Current Regulation/Management Overview

The MAX20087ATPC/VY+T is a camera power protection integrated circuit from the MAX2008x series, manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It provides up to four independent output channels, each capable of delivering a load current of 600mA. The device operates with an input supply voltage range of 3V to 15V and a service supply voltage of 3V to 5.5V. Key electrical specifications include a typical dropout voltage of 110mV at 300mA, current limit accuracy of ±8%, and a shutdown current of 0.3μA. It features adjustable current limiting from 100mA to 600mA, 0.5ms soft-start, and 0.25ms soft-shutdown times.

Current Regulation/Management Feature Summary

• Includes an onboard ADC for real-time monitoring of current, voltage, and power via I2C interface
• Supports automatic retry functionality after fault conditions clear
• Designed for functional safety compliance with ASIL B/D standards

Current Regulation/Management Applications

• Powering camera modules via coaxial cables
• Powering radar modules via coaxial cables
• Automotive sensor power distribution systems

Current Regulation/Management Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CP' in the part number MAX20087ATPC/VY+T against official Analog Devices documentation, as standard listings typically reference the 'TPA' variant. Confirm package type and pinout compatibility before integration. Ensure the component meets AEC-Q100 automotive qualification requirements if used in vehicle applications. Check for RoHS3 compliance status in the latest datasheet.

Current Regulation/Management Selection Notes

Select this component when designing power distribution networks for automotive cameras or radar sensors requiring precise current limiting and diagnostic feedback. The built-in ADC allows for system-level health monitoring without external components. Consider the 20-pin SWTQFN package size for space-constrained PCB layouts. Ensure the control logic supports the required I2C addressing scheme.

Current Regulation/Management Part Context

The MAX20087 belongs to the MAX2008x family of camera power protection ICs.
