MAX14895E
Enhanced VGA Port Protector
General Description
Benefits and Features
The MAX14895E integrates level-translating buffers and
features RED, GRN, and BLU (RGB) port protection for
VGA signals.
S Saves Power in Portable Applications
ꢀLow Quiescent Supply Current: 430µA (typ)
S Eliminates Need for Costly External Components
High-ESD Protection on SDA1, SCL1, SYNCH1,
The device has horizontal sync (SYNCH_) and vertical
sync (SYNCV_) translating buffers that convert low-level
CMOS inputs from a graphics controller to meet full 5V,
TTL-compatible outputs. Each output can drive Q10mA
and meets the VESASM specification. In addition, the
device translates the direct digital control (DDC) signals
to a lower level that is safe for the graphics controller.

±1ꢀ5V Human Body Model (HBM)
S
±±5V IEC 61000-4-2 Contact Discharge
S Innovative Design Enables a High Level of
Integration for Performance
Output Current-Limit Switch with Power-Off
Protection
Low Capacitance on RGB Ports (2.2pF typ)
10mA Drive on SYNCH1, SYNCV1
The device features both EN and EN inputs, accepting
active-high or active-low enable inputs. The device also
switches and current limits the 5V supply to a VGA con-
nector or monitor.
S Fully Integrated Solutions Saves Space in Portable
Applications
The RED, GRN, and BLU terminals protect graphics con-
troller outputs against electrostatic discharge (ESD) events.
All eight outputs and EN have high-level ESD protection.
DDC Outputs have Internal Pullups
3mm x 3mm, 16-Pin TQFN Pac5age
The MAX14895E is specified over the extended -40NC to
+85NC temperature range and is available in a 16-pin,
3mm x 3mm TQFN package with exposed pad.
