Current Limit 7 Click is a compact add-on board representing a current-limiting solution. This board features the MAX14575A, an adjustable current-limit switch from Analog Devices. This Click board™ features internal current limiting to prevent damage to host devices due to faulty load conditions, has a low 32mΩ on-resistance, and operates from a 2.3V to 5.5V input voltage range. Also, the current limit is adjustable from 250mA to 2.5A programmed through AD5272 digital rheostat and set via onboard range switch. This Click board™ is suitable for applications in portable equipment and condition monitoring or power supplies, protecting them in short circuits or other overload conditions.
We provide a library for the Current Limit 7 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Package can be downloaded/installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.
This library contains API for Current Limit 7 Click driver.
currentlimit7_cfg_setup
Config Object Initialization function. currentlimit7_init
Initialization function. currentlimit7_default_cfg
Click Default Configuration function. currentlimit7_set_current_limit
Current Limit 7 set current limit function. currentlimit7_set_resistance
Current Limit 7 set resistance function. currentlimit7_get_fault
Current Limit 7 get fault function. This library contains API for the Current Limit 7 Click driver. This driver provides the functions to set the current limiting conditions in order to provide the threshold of the fault conditions.
The demo application is composed of two sections :
Initialization of I2C module and log UART. After driver initialization, default settings turn on the device.
This example demonstrates the use of the Current Limit 7 Click board™. Reading user's input from Usart Terminal and using it as an index for an array of pre-calculated values that define the current limit level. Results are being sent to the Usart Terminal, where you can track their changes.
display_selection
This function displays selection messages. The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Additional notes and informations
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART Click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.
