MAX14915
Compact Industrial Octal
High-Side Switch with Diagnostics
General Description
Benefits and Features
The MAX14915 has eight high-side switches specified to
deliver up to 700mA continuous current. The high-side
switches have on-resistance of 250mΩ (max) at 125°C
ambient temperature.
● Robustness and Smart Diagnostics
• 65V Absolute Maximum Supply Range
• Internal Clamps for Fast Inductive Load
Demagnetization
• CRC Error Checking on the SPI Interface
• Watchdog Timer for Diagnostics Checking
• Open-Wire Detection, Both with Switches On and Off
• Undervoltage Detection with UVLO
The SPI interface has a built-in chip addressing decoder,
allowing communication with multiple MAX14915s utilizing
a common SPI chip select (CS).
The SPI interface provides flexibility for global and
per-channel configuration and diagnostic, including over
and undervoltage detection, open wire/load detection,
overload and current limiting reporting, thermal conditions
reporting, and more.
• Loss of V
or GND Protection
DD
• Thermal Shutdown Protection
• Integrated ±1kV/42Ω IEC61000-4-5 Surge
Protection
• -40°C to +125°C Operating Ambient Temperature
Open load detection detects both open-wire/open-load
conditions with switches in the on and off states. LED
drivers provide indication of per-channel fault, status, and
supply undervoltage conditions. Internal active clamps
allow for fast turn-off of inductive loads.
● Reduces Power and Heat Dissipation
• 250mΩ (Max) On-Resistance at T = 125°C
A
• 2mA (typ) Supply Current
• Accurate Output Current Limiting
● Flexibility
Integrated line-to-ground and line-to-line surge protection
• Addressable SPI Interface Reduces Isolation Cost
• SYNCH Input for Simultaneous Update of Switches
• LED Driver Matrix for 16 LEDs, Powered by 24V,
5V, or 3.3V
only requires a TVS on V
.
