MAX4210FEUA

Current Regulation/Management Overview

The MAX4210FEUA is a high-side power and current monitor manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It provides an analog output voltage proportional to the load's consumed power by multiplying load current and source voltage. The device features a ±1.5% maximum power-sense accuracy and operates with a +4V to +28V input source voltage range. It utilizes a 100mV/150mV current-sense full-scale voltage and offers three current/power gain options. The component is housed in an 8-pin µMAX package and supports a +2.7V to +5.5V power-supply voltage range.

Current Regulation/Management Feature Summary

• Provides real-time monitoring of both current and power consumption
• Measures load current using a high-side current-sense amplifier architecture
• Delivers an analog output voltage directly proportional to the power consumed by the load

Current Regulation/Management Applications

• Overpower circuit breakers
• Smart battery packs and chargers
• Short-circuit protection systems
• Power-supply displays and measurement instrumentation

Current Regulation/Management Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official documentation, as it may indicate variations in temperature range or packaging. Confirm availability status through authorized distributors, as lifecycle changes can affect supply. Ensure the selected variant matches the required gain options and package type for your design implementation.

Current Regulation/Management Selection Notes

Select this component when high-side sensing is required to avoid interfering with the load ground path. Consider the ±1.5% accuracy limits and the specific gain options available. Evaluate the low supply current requirements against system power budgets. Verify compatibility with the +4V to +28V input source voltage range for your application.

Current Regulation/Management Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX4210/MAX4211 series of low-cost, low-power monitors. The MAX4210 focuses on current and power monitoring, while the MAX4211 adds uncommitted comparators and a reference output. Both share similar core functionalities and package options, designed for battery-powered systems where ground path interference must be minimized.
