Random connection of cells to IC—
no stack load
No effect
The series resistors on the cell inputs of the
M AX 11080/M AX 11081, as well as the internal
design, ensure protection against random
power-supply or ground connections.
Random connection of modules—
no stack load
No effect

Random connect/disconnect of
communication bus—no stack load;
AC- or DC-coupled
Communication from host to the first
break in the daisy-chain bus
The level-shifted interface design of the
M AX 11080/M AX 11081 ensures that the SHDN,
GND
U
, and ALRM_ communication bus can be
connected at any time with no load.
Random connect/disconnect of
communication bus—with stack load;
AC- or DC-coupled
Communication from host to the first
break in the daisy-chain bus
The level-shifted interface design of the
M AX 11080/M AX 11081 ensures that the SHDN,
GND
U
, ALRM_ communication bus can be
connected at any time as long as the power
bus is properly connected.
Connect/disconnect module
interconnect (bus bar)—no stack load
No effect for DC- or AC-coupled
communication bus
A break in the power bus does not cause a
problem as long as there is no load on the
stack.
Removal/fault of module interconnect
(bus bar)—with stack load
No effect for AC-coupled
communication bus; device damage for
DC-coupled bus
An AC-coupled bus with isolation on the SHDN
pin or a redundant bus-bar connection should
be used to protect against this case.
Removal/fault of module interconnect
(bus bar)—with stack under charge
No effect for AC-coupled
communication bus; device damage for
DC-coupled bus
An AC-coupled bus with isolation on the SHDN
pin or a redundant bus-bar connection should
be used to protect against this case.

Short to Pin 4 No effect.
Open (or Disconnected)
If open occurs before power-up, the part works as if C12 does not exist
because the internal circuit detects the situation and assumes it is what the
application intended to do. The monitoring of C12 to C11 is disabled and is
not enabled even if the pin is reconnected.
If open occurs after power-up, it is considered a zero voltage input. ALRM
L
goes high when the undervoltage is enabled.
4 C12
Short to Pin 5
If short occurs before power-up, the part works as if C12 does not exist
because the internal circuit detects the situation and assumes it is what the
application intended to do. The monitoring of C12 to C11 is disabled and is
not enabled even if the short is removed.
If short occurs after power-up, the situation is treated as a zero voltage input
for C12 to C11. ALRM
L
goes high when the undervoltage is enabled.
Open (or Disconnected)
ALRM
L
goes high because it causes an overvoltage to the affected input pair
even if the overvoltage is set to the maximum.
5 C11
Short to Pin 6
If short occurs before power-up, the part works as if C11 does not exist
because the internal circuit detects the situation and assumes it is what the
application intended to do. The monitoring of C11 to C10 is disabled and is
not enabled even if the short is removed.
If short occurs after power-up, the situation is treated as a zero voltage input
for C11 to C10. ALRM
L
goes high when the undervoltage is enabled.
Open (or Disconnected)
ALRM
L
goes high as it causes an overvoltage to the affected input pair even if
the overvoltage is set to the maximum.
6 C10
Short to Pin 7
If short occurs before power-up, the part works as if C10 does not exist
because the internal circuit detects the situation and assumes it is what the
application intended to do. The monitoring of C10 to C9 is disabled and is
not enabled even if the short is removed.
If short occurs after power-up, the situation is treated as a zero voltage input
for C10 to C9. ALRM
L
goes high when the undervoltage is enabled.
Open (or Disconnected)
ALRM
L
goes high as it causes an overvoltage to the affected input pair even if
the overvoltage is set to the maximum.
7C9
Short to Pin 8
If short occurs before power-up, the part works as if C9 does not exist
because the internal circuit detects the situation and assumes it is what the
application intended to do. The monitoring of C9 to C8 is disabled and is not
enabled even if the short is removed.
If short occurs after power-up, the situation is treated as a zero voltage input
for C9 to C8. ALRM

goes high when the undervoltage is enabled.
