General Description

The MAX4880 is an overvoltage-protection controller
with an internal current-limited switch that can be con-
figured as a low-cost battery charger. When the input
voltage exceeds the overvoltage trip level (5.7V), or
drops below the undervoltage-lockout level (4.2V), the
MAX4880 turns off the external n-channel MOSFET and
asserts an undervoltage/overvoltage flag indicator
(

FLAGV) low to notify the processor.

The MAX4880 internal current-limited switch limits the
charge current flowing to the battery to 525mA. The
switch opens when the battery voltage reaches its full-
charged state (4.2V), and a flag (

BAT_OK) asserts to

notify the processor. The MAX4880 includes a switch-
control input (CB) to turn off the internal current-limited
switch, regardless of the battery voltage.

The MAX4880 also features a built-in startup delay that
allows the adapter voltage to settle down before turning
on the MOSFET. Other features include 15kV ESD pro-
tection for the input and a shutdown function (

EN) to

turn off the external n-channel MOSFET.

The MAX4880 is available in a space-saving 10-pin
TDFN package and is specified for operation over the
extended -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
