Maxim’s hi-speed USB protectors offer robust ESD protection for mobile connectivity

Additionally, these devices are the only fully integrated automotive-grade USB protectors, combining several automotive-specific benefits, including short-to-battery and short-to-ground protections, which are required in today’s harsh automotive environment. These devices are ideal for automotive radio, navigation, connectivity, and USB hub applications.

Maxim also offers system-level modeling and simulation support to achieve the best performance for customer-specific applications. The integrated host-charger detection circuitry and the adjustable current capability (3A) allow the USB peripheral devices to be charged quickly and efficiently. The industry’s lowest on-resistance BUS switch minimizes line drop, ensuring USB compliance.

Commenting Kent Robinett, Managing Director at Maxim Integrated Products said “As the newest members of the company’s automotive USB protection devices, the MAX16919/MAX16969 reflect the industry’s advances in mobile integration within the automotive environment.”

The devices are available in a 16-pin QSOP package and operate over the -40°C to +105°C temperature range.
