Current-Limited Switch for Two USB Ports
General Description
The MAX1930 current-limited 70mΩ switch with built-in
fault blanking provides an accurate, preset 1.2A to 2.3A
current limit, making it ideal for dual USB applications.
Its low quiescent supply current (16µA) and standby
current (1µA) conserve battery power in portable appli-
cations. The MAX1930 operates with inputs from 2.7V to
5.5V, making it ideal for both 3V and 5V systems.
The MAX1930 has several safety features to ensure that
the USB port is protected. Built-in thermal-overload
protection limits power dissipation and junction tempera-
ture. The device also has accurate internal current-limiting
circuitry to protect the input supply against overload.
The MAX1930 is offered in a space-saving 8-pin SO
package and operates over the extended (-40°C to
+85°C) temperature range.

MAX1930
P
The MAX1930 has a thermal shutdown feature. The
switch turns off when the junction temperature exceeds
+165°C. When the MAX1930 cools 20°C, the switch
turns back on. If the fault short-circuit condition is not
removed, the switch cycles on and off, resulting in a
pulsed output.

Applications Information
Input Capacitor
To limit the input voltage drop during momentary output
short-circuit conditions, connect a capacitor from IN to
GND. A 1µF ceramic capacitor is adequate for most
applications; however, higher capacitor values further
reduce the voltage drop at the input (Figure 2).

Connect a 0.1µF capacitor from OUT to GND. This
capacitor helps to prevent inductive parasitics from
pulling OUT negative during turn-off.
Layout and Thermal Dissipation
Figure 1. Functional Diagram
Detailed Description
The MAX1930 P-channel MOSFET power switch limits
output current to 1.2A (min) and 2.3A (max). When the
output current increases beyond the current limit
(I
LIMIT
), the current also increases through the replica
switch (I
OUT
/ 13,000). The current-limit error amplifier
compares the voltage to the internal 1.24V reference
and regulates the current back to the I
LIMIT
(Figure 1).
These switches are not bidirectional. As a result, the
input voltage must be higher than the output voltage.
Continuous Short-Circuit Protection
The MAX1930 is a short-circuit protected switch. In the
event of an output short-circuit condition, the current
through the switch is foldback-current-limited to 1A
continuous.
It is important to optimize the switch response time to
output short-circuit conditions by keeping all traces as
short as possible to reduce the effect of undesirable
parasitic inductance. Place input and output capacitors
as close as possible to the device (no more than 5mm
away). All IN and OUT pins must be connected with
short traces to the power bus. Wide power-bus planes
provide superior heat dissipation through the
MAX1930’s IN and OUT pins.
Under normal operating conditions, the package can
dissipate and channel heat away. Calculate the maxi-
mum power dissipation as follows:
P = (I
LIMIT
)
2
✕
R
ON
where I
LIMIT
is the preset current limit (2.3A max) and
R
ON
is the on-resistance of the switch (125mΩ max).
When the output is short circuited, foldback-current-lim-
iting activates and the voltage drop across the switch
equals the input supply voltage. The power dissipated
across the switch increases, as does the die tempera-
