Product Code: MIKROE-4271
The�Current Limit Click Board��is a compact add-on board that contains a low-voltage, P-channel MOSFET power switch intended for high-side load switching applications. This board features the�MAX890L, a low-resistance power switch with an adjustable, accurate current limit system, and thermal shutdown from�Maxim Integrated. Its internal current-limiting circuitry protects the input supply against overload, while thermal protection limits power dissipation. The maximum current limit is 1.2A and can be programmed through a digital potentiometer�MAX5401. The quiescent supply current has a low value of 10?A in the active state, while in its off state the supply current decreases to 0.1?A. This Click Board� is suitable for applications in some portable equipment, access bus slots, or with power supplies, protecting them in cases of a short circuit or other overload conditions.
The�Current Limit Click Board��is supported by a mikroSDK compliant library, which includes functions that simplify software development. This Click Board� comes as a fully tested product, ready to be used on a system equipped with the mikroBUS� socket.
