Thermal Overload Protection Output Voltage Selection
Thermal overload protection limits total power dissipation The MAX8863/MAX8864 feature Dual Mode operation: in the MAX8863/MAX8864. When the junction temperature they operate in either a preset voltage mode or an adjustable exceeds TJ = +170°C, the thermal sensor sends a signal mode. to the shutdown logic, turning off the pass transistor and In preset voltage mode, internal, trimmed feedback resistors allowing the IC to cool. The thermal sensor will turn the set the MAX886_R output to 2.80V, the MAX886_S output pass transistor on again after the IC’s junction temperature to 2.84V, and the MAX886_T output to 3.15V. Select this typically cools by 20°C, resulting in a pulsed output during mode by connecting SET to ground. continuous thermal overload conditions. In adjustable mode, select an output between 1.25V and Thermal overload protection is designed to protect the 6.5V using two external resistors connected as a voltage MAX8863/MAX8864 in the event of fault conditions. divider to SET (Figure 2). The output voltage is set by the Stressing the device with high load currents and high following equation: input-output differential voltages (which result in die temperatures above +125°C) may cause a momentary VOUT = VSET (1 + R1 / R2) overshoot (2% to 8% for 200ms) when the load is where VSET = 1.25V. To simplify resistor selection: completely removed. This can be remedied by raising the minimum load current from 0μA (+125°C) to 100μA (+150°C).  VOUT  R1 For continuous operation, do not exceed the absolute = R2  1 −   VSET  maximum junction temperature rating of TJ = +150°C. www.maximintegrated.com Maxim Integrated │
