General Description
The MAX4959/MAX4960 overvoltage protection con-
trollers protect low-voltage systems against high-volt-
age faults of up to +28V. When the input voltage
exceeds the overvoltage lockout (OVLO) threshold,
these devices turn off an external pFET to prevent dam-
age to the protected components. The undervoltage
lockout (UVLO) threshold holds the external pFET off
until the input voltage rises to the correct level. An addi-
tional safety feature latches off the pFET when an incor-
rect low-power adapter is plugged in.
The MAX4959/MAX4960 control an external battery
switchover pFET (P2) (see Figures 4 and 6) that switches
in the battery when the AC adapter is unplugged. The
undervoltage and overvoltage trip levels can be adjusted
with external resistors.
The input is protected against ±15kV HBM ESD when
bypassed with a 1µF ceramic capacitor to ground. All
devices are available in a small 10-pin (2mm x 2mm)
µDFN and are specified for operation over the extend-
ed -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
