Product details
Overview
MAX20313EWC+ from Maxim Integrated is a programmable current-limit switch designed for high-current load switching and large-capacitor charging in portable power rails. It features adjustable current limiting from 500mA to 6A, 10mΩ typical on-resistance, ±5% current-limit accuracy (2A–6A), and continuous current-limit fault response. It operates from +2.5V to +5.5V and supports RF power amplifier supply protection in smartphones.
For engineers reviewing the MAX20313EWC+ datasheet, MAX20313EWC+ pinout, MAX20313EWC+ application, or MAX20313EWC+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its active-high enable logic, continuous overcurrent response mode, reverse-current blocking with 3µs fast response, thermal self-limitation at +130°C, and WLP-12 package compatibility with space-constrained mobile designs.
Technical Context
The MAX20313EWC+ integrates a low-RON N-channel MOSFET with precision current-sense feedback and programmable blanking time (12–18ms) to distinguish transient surges from true faults. Its SETI pin accepts a resistor-to-GND to set current limit via a calibrated 3329 mV·Ω/A coefficient and 12 mA offset.
It implements dual reverse-current protection thresholds: accurate blocking triggers at 1–25mV (VOUT–VIN) with 128µs debounce, and fast blocking activates at 40–110mV with 3µs response. FLAG asserts open-drain upon overcurrent (after blanking), reverse fault, or thermal shutdown at +150°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Current Limit Range | 500mA to 6A, set by external RSETI (e.g., 680Ω = 6A); enables one device to cover multiple load profiles |
| On-Resistance (RON) | 10mΩ typical at 4.3V/1A; minimizes voltage drop and power loss in high-current paths |
| Current-Limit Accuracy | ±5% for 2A–6A range; ensures predictable fault threshold across temperature and supply voltage |
| Reverse Current Blocking | Fast response ≤3µs at ≥40mV VOUT–VIN; prevents backfeed into weak or shared power domains |
| Thermal Behavior | Self-limitation at +130°C (average current reduction), shutdown at +150°C with 20°C hysteresis; avoids PCB-level thermal runaway |
| Enable Logic | Active-high EN input (VIH ≥1.4V); simplifies direct interface with 1.8V/3.3V GPIO without level-shifting |
| Operating Voltage | +2.5V to +5.5V input range; supports USB PD, single-cell Li-ion, and dual-cell alkaline systems |
Pinout & Package
MAX20313EWC+ uses a 12-bump wafer-level package (WLP), 1.68mm × 1.48mm, 0.4mm pitch, RoHS-compliant. Bumps are on bottom; top-side marking is "ADT".
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | FLAG | Open-drain fault indicator; pulls low on overcurrent (after blanking), reverse current, or thermal shutdown |
| A2 | SETI | Current-limit programming input; connects to GND via resistor to set ILIM (500mA–6A); also provides current-monitor voltage |
| A3 | GND | Power and signal reference ground; must be low-impedance connection for stable current sensing |
| A4 | EN | Active-high enable; drives switch ON when ≥1.4V, OFF when ≤0.4V; no internal pullup/pulldown |
| B1, B4, C1, C4 | IN | Power input terminal; requires ≥1µF ceramic bypass close to package to suppress supply sag during short-circuit events |
| B2, B3, C2, C3 | OUT | Switched output terminal; connects to load; requires ≥1µF ceramic bypass to stabilize voltage during load transients |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Adjustable current limit | 500mA–6A via single external resistor; eliminates need for multiple fixed-limit parts in BOM |
| Continuous current-limit mode | MAX20313EWC+ sustains regulated current during overload instead of latching off-enables auto-recovery in transient-fault environments |
| Fast reverse-current blocking | 3µs response at ≥40mV reverse bias; protects upstream supplies from backfeed in multi-rail systems |
| Thermal self-limitation | Automatic current reduction at +130°C junction; maintains functionality under sustained overload without shutdown |
| Accurate current monitoring | VSETI = (IOUT × 3329)/RSETI + 12mV; enables real-time load diagnostics without external sense resistor |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar current-limit switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX20315EWC+ | Same current range and RON, but active-low EN and continuous current-limit mode; identical thermal behavior and reverse-blocking specs | Requires inverted control signal; suitable where system MCU uses active-low enable outputs | Select MAX20315EWC+ only if board-level EN signal polarity matches-no change to current-limit or protection behavior |
| TPL7407LDR | Fixed 700mA limit, 120mΩ RON, no reverse-current blocking, no current monitoring, SOIC-8 package | Limited to low-current peripherals; lacks programmability and bidirectional protection needed for USB/PA rails | Use TPL7407LDR only for cost-sensitive, low-power non-critical loads where 700mA and SOIC layout are acceptable |
Compared with MAX20313EWC+, MAX20315EWC+ offers identical protection and current-setting capability but demands active-low control, whereas TPL7407LDR sacrifices adjustability, efficiency, and reverse protection for lower cost and simpler footprint-making MAX20313EWC+ optimal for compact, high-performance mobile and telecom power rails.

FAQ
What is the enable logic polarity of the MAX20313EWC+?
The MAX20313EWC+ uses active-high enable logic: the internal switch turns ON when the EN pin voltage exceeds 1.4V (VIH), and turns OFF when EN falls below 0.4V (VIL). This matches standard 1.8V/3.3V GPIO outputs without level-shifting. The MAX20313EWC+ does not include internal pull resistors on EN, so external pull-down is recommended for default-OFF behavior.
How do I set the current limit for the MAX20313EWC+?
Set the current limit for the MAX20313EWC+ by connecting a resistor (RSETI) between the SETI pin and GND. Use RSETI = 680Ω for 6A, 2050Ω for 2A, or 8350Ω for 500mA-values are listed in Table 2 of the datasheet. The relationship follows ILIM = (1.224V × 3329)/RSETI – 12mA. Do not use RSETI < 675Ω, as it disables protection.
Does the MAX20313EWC+ provide reverse-current protection?
Yes, the MAX20313EWC+ provides dual-mode reverse-current protection: accurate blocking triggers at 1–25mV (VOUT–VIN) with 128µs debounce, and fast blocking activates at 40–110mV with 3µs response. This prevents backfeed into source rails during hot-swap or multi-supply conflicts-critical for USB and SDXC applications where OUT may briefly exceed IN.
What happens during an overcurrent event on the MAX20313EWC+?
During an overcurrent event, the MAX20313EWC+ enters continuous current-limit mode: it regulates output current at the programmed ILIM value. After the blanking time (12–18ms), FLAG asserts low. If the overload persists, thermal self-limitation reduces average current at +130°C; at +150°C, thermal shutdown forces full OFF until junction cools by ~20°C. No latchoff occurs-recovery is automatic when load normalizes.
What package type and dimensions does the MAX20313EWC+ use?
The MAX20313EWC+ uses a 12-bump wafer-level package (WLP) measuring 1.68mm × 1.48mm with 0.4mm bump pitch. Top-side marking is "ADT". It requires micro-BGA land pattern per Maxim Application Note 1891 and JEDEC-standard reflow profile (peak 260°C). The WLP enables ultra-compact placement in smartphone and modem card layouts where QFN or SOIC are too large.
