Product details
Overview
MAX1823BEUB from Maxim Integrated is a dual-channel, active-high enable USB power switch with autoreset, thermal shutdown, and independent fault reporting. It delivers guaranteed 720mA per channel across 4V–5.5V input, features 165mΩ on-resistance (max), 3µA standby current, and 20ms fault blanking - deployed in notebook USB ports to protect host supplies during hot-swap capacitive load events.
For engineers reviewing the MAX1823BEUB datasheet, MAX1823BEUB pinout, MAX1823BEUB application, or MAX1823BEUB equivalent, this page provides verified electrical parameters, µMAX-10 package layout, USB-compliant current-limit behavior, reverse-current blocking in shutdown, and real-world fault-handling timing for system-level USB port design validation.
Technical Context
The MAX1823BEUB implements two independent high-side NMOS switches with integrated charge-pump gate drivers, enabling operation from 4V–5.5V without external bias. Each channel uses dual-mode current limiting: continuous 0.9A regulation when VOUT > 1V, and pulsed 0.35ARMS short-circuit mode when VOUT < 1V.
It integrates per-channel thermal shutdown (+160°C trip, 15°C hysteresis), undervoltage lockout (3.4V rising threshold), and autoreset latching that forces 25mA output current during fault and resets only after VOUT > 0.5V for 20ms - all coordinated without microcontroller intervention.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.0V to 5.5V - compatible with standard USB 5V rail including tolerance for upstream regulator droop. |
| Continuous Load Current | 720mA per channel - meets USB 2.0 downstream port minimum current requirement. |
| On-Resistance (RON) | 165mΩ max (TA = 0°C to +85°C) - limits voltage drop to ≤117mV at 720mA, preserving downstream VBUS margin. |
| Standby Supply Current | 3µA - enables battery-backed systems to maintain USB port readiness with negligible quiescent drain. |
| Fault Blanking Timeout | 20ms (typical) - suppresses false FAULT assertions during hot-plug of compliant USB devices with up to 330µF bulk capacitance. |
| Autoreset Threshold | 0.4V to 0.6V rising - ensures reliable reset only after output recovers from short, preventing premature re-engagement. |
| Thermal Shutdown Threshold | +160°C junction (15°C hysteresis) - protects against sustained overload while permitting single-channel operation during dual-port fault. |
Pinout & Package
MAX1823BEUB is housed in a 10-pin µMAX package (3mm × 3mm, 0.5mm pitch), thermally enhanced with exposed paddle. Pin 8 (GND) connects to the exposed pad for optimal thermal dissipation and noise immunity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 5 (ONA, ONB) | Active-high enable inputs | Drive HIGH (≥2V) to turn on respective switch; tolerate voltages up to VIN+0.3V; no external pull-up required. |
| 2, 3, 4 (INA, IN, INB) | Power input terminals | Must be shorted externally; supply all internal circuitry and charge pump; require 0.1µF ceramic bypass to GND. |
| 6, 10 (FAULTB, FAULTA) | Open-drain fault indicators | Assert LOW during UVLO, thermal shutdown, or sustained current limit (>20ms); require 100kΩ pull-up to IN. |
| 7, 9 (OUTB, OUTA) | Switched power outputs | Deliver regulated 720mA to USB peripherals; require ≥1µF ceramic capacitor to GND per output. |
| 8 | Ground | Primary signal and thermal reference; must connect to exposed paddle and system ground plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent USB power switches | Enables simultaneous, isolated control of two USB ports with separate enable and fault signaling - critical for hub and docking station designs. |
| Autoreset latching with 25mA output current source | Automatically recovers from short-circuit faults without host µP intervention once VOUT > 0.5V for 20ms - eliminates manual reset logic. |
| Reverse current blocking in shutdown | Prevents backfeed from powered peripheral into host USB port when disabled - satisfies USB specification compliance for noncompliant loads. |
| 20ms per-channel fault blanking | Ignores transient overloads (e.g., hot-swap inrush) while retaining immediate response to thermal/UVLO faults - improves system robustness without sacrificing protection. |
| Thermal shutdown with independent channel operation | One switch can remain active even if the other enters thermal shutdown - maintains partial USB functionality during overload conditions. |
Applications
| USB Port Protection in Notebooks | Desktop PC Front-Panel USB Hubs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual USB power switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS2051BDBVR | Single-channel, 500mA rated, no autoreset, no fault blanking, 100mΩ RON | Lacks dual-channel integration and intelligent fault recovery - requires external logic for multi-port coordination. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs fault autonomy and dual-channel consolidation. |
| AP2171WG-7 | Dual-channel, 700mA rated, active-low enable only, no reverse-current blocking in shutdown | Requires level-shifting for active-high control; does not block reverse current - violates USB spec for certain peripherals. | Select for legacy active-low systems where reverse-current blocking is not required. |
Compared with TPS2051BDBVR and AP2171WG-7, the MAX1823BEUB uniquely combines dual-channel active-high control, autoreset latching, reverse-current blocking, and per-channel fault blanking - enabling simpler, more robust USB port designs without external supervision or level translation.

FAQ
What is the enable logic polarity of MAX1823BEUB?
The MAX1823BEUB uses active-high enable inputs: ONA and ONB must be driven HIGH (≥2V) to turn on their respective switches. This differs from the MAX1823EUB (active-low) and is explicitly defined in the Pin Description section of the datasheet. The MAX1823BEUB's active-high behavior simplifies interface with most modern microcontrollers lacking dedicated open-drain GPIOs.
Does MAX1823BEUB block reverse current when disabled?
Yes, the MAX1823BEUB blocks reverse current (from OUT to IN) when disabled - a key feature confirmed in the Features list and Detailed Description. This capability satisfies USB specification requirements for noncompliant peripherals and prevents backfeed into the host supply during maintenance or peripheral removal.
What happens during a short-circuit event on MAX1823BEUB?
When a short occurs, the MAX1823BEUB enters short-circuit current-limit mode (0.35ARMS pulses), asserts FAULTA/FAULTB after 20ms blanking, latches off the output, and sources 25mA at the output. Recovery occurs automatically only after VOUT exceeds 0.5V for 20ms - ensuring the short is fully removed before re-engagement.
What is the maximum allowable output capacitance for MAX1823BEUB startup?
The MAX1823BEUB reliably starts up into ≤330µF total output capacitance without triggering fault blanking, as verified in Applications Information. Larger values may cause VOUT ramp time to exceed 20ms, resulting in autoreset activation. For >330µF loads, consider staged startup or external soft-start circuitry.
How does thermal shutdown behave on MAX1823BEUB?
The MAX1823BEUB features independent thermal shutdown per channel at +160°C (15°C hysteresis). Unlike current-limit faults, thermal faults assert FAULT immediately - no blanking delay applies. Once cooled by 15°C, the channel autoresets if the fault condition is cleared, enabling continued operation of the unaffected channel.
