Overvoltage Protection Controllers with
Status FLAG
General Description
The MAX4838–MAX4842 are overvoltage protection ICs
that protect low-voltage systems against voltages of up
to 28V. If the input voltage exceeds the overvoltage trip
level, the MAX4838–MAX4842 turn off the low-cost
external n-channel FET(s) to prevent damage to the
protected components. An internal charge pump elimi-
nates the need for external capacitors and drives the
FET gate for a simple, robust solution.
The MAX4838/MAX4839 have a 7.4V overvoltage
threshold, and the MAX4840/MAX4841 have a 5.8V
overvoltage threshold. The MAX4842 has a 4.7V over-
voltage threshold. The MAX4838–MAX4841 have an
undervoltage lockout (UVLO) threshold of 3.25V while
the MAX4842 has a UVLO of 3.0V. In addition to the
single FET configuration, the devices can be config-
ured with back-to-back external FETs to prevent cur-
rents from being back-driven into the adapter.
On power-up, the device waits for 50ms before driving
GATE high.
FLAG
is held low for an additional 50ms
after GATE goes high before deasserting. The
MAX4838/MAX4840/MAX4842 have an open-drain
FLAG
output, and the MAX4839/MAX4841 have a push-
pull
FLAG
output. The
FLAG
output asserts immediately
to an overvoltage fault.
Additional features include a 15kV ESD-protected input
(when bypassed with a 1µF capacitor) and a shutdown
pin (EN) to turn off the device (MAX4838/MAX4840/
MAX4842).
All devices are offered in a small 6-pin SC70 package
and are specified for operation from -40°C to +85°C.

Input. IN is both the power-supply input and the overvoltage sense input. Bypass IN to
GND with a 1µF capacitor or larger.
Ground
Fault Indication Output, Active Low.
FLAG
is asserted low during undervoltage lockout
and overvoltage lockout conditions.
FLAG
is deasserted during normal operation.
FLAG
is open-drain on the MAX4838/MAX4840/MAX4842, and push-pull on the
MAX4839/MAX4841.
Gate-Drive Output. GATE is the output of an on-chip charge pump. When V
UVLO
< V
IN
<
V
OVLO
, GATE is driven high to turn on the external N-channel MOSFET(s).
No Connection. Can be connected to GND.
Device Enable Input, Active Low. Drive
EN
low or connect to ground to allow normal
device operation. Drive
EN
high to turn off the external MOSFET.
