MAX4829ELT+T

Current Regulation/Management Overview

The MAX4829ELT+T is a current-limiting power switch IC manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates within an input voltage range of 2.3V to 5.5V and provides a continuous output current of 100mA. The device is housed in a compact 6-µDFN package measuring 1.5x1 mm. It functions as a single-channel switch with integrated current limiting capabilities for power distribution applications.

Current Regulation/Management Feature Summary

• Integrates current limiting protection for load circuits
• Supports low-voltage operation from 2.3V to 5.5V
• Utilizes a miniature surface-mount package for space-constrained designs

Current Regulation/Management Applications

• Portable electronic devices requiring overcurrent protection
• Battery-powered systems needing efficient power management
• General-purpose power distribution switches

Current Regulation/Management Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ELT' against the official datasheet to confirm package type and temperature rating. Ensure compatibility with the target system's voltage levels and current requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status through manufacturer documentation before integration into final products.

Current Regulation/Management Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, low-voltage current-limited switch is required. Evaluate the 100mA limit against maximum load demands. Consider the 6-µDFN footprint constraints during PCB layout. Compare performance metrics with alternative switches if higher current capacity or different packaging is necessary.

Current Regulation/Management Part Context

This part belongs to the Maxim Integrated power switch family, designed for portable electronics. It serves as a bridge between power sources and loads, providing essential protection against short circuits and overcurrent conditions while maintaining a small physical profile suitable for modern miniaturized devices.

Current Regulation/Management Replacement Considerations

Consult the official datasheet for direct pin-compatible substitutes. Verify that any replacement maintains the 2.3V-5.5V input range and 100mA current limit. Ensure the alternative package matches the 6-µDFN dimensions for seamless board integration.
