Product Details

The MAX25400 evaluation kit (EV kit) demonstrates the MAX25400 automotive Hi-Speed USB 2.0 protector switch IC, featuring overvoltage protection (OVP), electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, and undervoltage lockout (UVLO) for automotive USB applications.

The device protects the D+ and D- data lines from over- voltage conditions, such as a short-to-battery and ESD events. All faults can be monitored using the active-low FAULT output signal.

The device can pass high-speed USB differential (D+ and D-) signals up to 480Mbps using low 3.3Ω RON (typ) data switches. The EV kit is powered by the USB BUS. An on- board MAX15007A automotive regulator provides the IN reference voltage.
