Current-Limited Switch for Single USB Port
General Description
The MAX1931 is a current-limited, 60mΩ switch with
built-in fault blanking. Its accurate preset current limit of
0.64A to 1.06A makes it ideally suited for USB applica-
tions. The device’s low quiescent supply current (14µA)
and shutdown current (1µA) conserve battery power in
portable applications. The MAX1931 operates with
inputs from 2.7V to 5.5V, making it ideal for both 3V and
5V systems.
A fault signal notifies the microprocessor that the inter-
nal current limit has been reached. A 10ms fault-blank-
ing feature allows momentary faults (such as those
caused when hot-swapping into a capacitive load) to be
ignored, thus preventing false alarms to the host system.
This fault blanking also prevents a fault signal from
being issued when the device is powering up.
In the MAX1931, an output overcurrent condition causes
the switch to current limit at 0.64A to 1.06A and
FAULT
to go low after the 10ms blanking period. When the
overcurrent condition is removed,
FAULT
returns to its
high-impedance state.
The MAX1931 has several safety features to ensure that
the USB port is protected. Built-in thermal overload
protection limits power dissipation and junction tempera-
tures. The device has an accurate internal current-limit-
ing circuitry to protect the input supply against overload.
The MAX1931 is available in a space-saving 10-pin
µMAX package.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
