Fault-Protected, High-
Voltage Signal-Line Protectors
General Description
The MAX4506/MAX4507 multiple, two-terminal signal-line protectors are pin-compatible with the industry-standard MAX366/MAX367.
These new circuit protectors feature fault-protected inputs and Rail-to-Rail® signal handling capability.
The input pins are protected from over
voltage faults up to ±36V with power on or ±40V with power off.
During a fault condition, the input terminal becomes an open circuit and only nanoamperes of leakage current flow from the source; but the switch output (OUT_) furnishes typically 19mA from the appropriate polarity supply to the load.
This ensures unambiguous rail-to-ra...
