MAX1663 Datasheet (Maxim) - Serial-to-Parallel/Parallel-to-Serial Converters and Load-Switch Controllers with SMBus Interface

MAX1663, Serial-to-Parallel/Parallel-to-Serial Converters and Load-Switch Controllers with SMBus Interface

The MAX1661/MAX1662/MAX1663 serial-to-parallel/ parallel-to-serial converters are intended to control external power MOSFETs in power-plane switching applications.

These small, low-cost devices can be used on a system motherboard to control point-of-load switching from a 2wire SMBus™ serial interfac

MAX1663 Features

* include thermal-overload and overcurrent protection, ultra-low supply current, and both hardware and software interrupt capabilities. These devices are available in the space-saving 10-pin µMAX package. ____________________________Features o Performs Serial-to-Parallel and Parallel-to-Serial Conver
