The MAX5943B–MAX5943E provide a circuit-breaker
function that protects against excessive load currents
and short-circuit conditions. The load current is monitored
by sensing the voltage across an external sense resistor

The MAX5943 allows three selectable current-limit/cir-
cuit-breaker thresholds (V
threshold by connecting ILIM to the appropriate level;
see Table 1.
The MAX5943’s current-limit/circuit-breaker timeout
function disconnects power from the load if the current-
limit or circuit-breaker threshold voltage exceeds its
maximum limit for a programmable amount of time.
Connect TIM to IN for the MAX5943 default timeout
periods (see Table 2).
Adjust the fault timeout period (t
ing a resistor (R
Operating Characteristics ). Calculate the fault-limit
timeout period using the following equation:
