Product Details
During startup, the devices are designed to charge large capacitances on the output in a continuous mode for applications where large reservoir capacitors are used on the inputs to downstream devices. Additionally, the MAX14721–MAX14723 feature a dual-stage, current-limit mode in which the current is continuously limited to 1x, 1.5x, and 2x the programmed limit, respectively, for a short time after startup. This enables faster charging of large loads during startup.
The MAX14721–MAX14723 also feature reverse-current and overtemperature protection. The devices are available in a 20-pin (5mm x 5mm) TQFN package and operate over a -40°C to 125°C temperature range.

Description
The MAX14721 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled and tested circuit board that demonstrates the MAX14721 overvoltage, undervoltage, and overcurrent-protection device. The EV kit features an external pMOSFET and LED input/output reading. The EV kit comes with the MAX14721ATP+ installed, but can also be used to evaluate the pin-compatible MAX14722 and MAX14723 devices with IC replacement of U1. Request samples from Maxim when ordering the EV kit.
