MIC2546/2547
Dual Programable Current Limit Switch
General Description
Features
The MIC2546 and MIC2547 are integrated high-side dual
•
2.7V to 5.5V input
power switches optimized for low loss dc power switching
•
Adjustable current-limit up to 1.5A
and other power management applications, including
•
Reverse current flow blocking (no “body diode”)
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI). The
•
100μA typical on-state supply current per channel
MIC2546/47 is a cost-effective, highly integrated solution
•
2μA typical off-state supply current
that requires few external components to satisfy USB and
ACPI requirements.
•
120mΩ maximum on-resistance
Load current management features include a precision
•
Open-drain fault flag
resistor-programmable output current-limit and a soft-start
•
Thermal shutdown
circuit which minimizes inrush current when the switch is
•
Thermal shutdown output latch (MIC2547)
enabled. Thermal shutdown, along with current-limit,
•
2ms (slow) turn-on and fast turnoff
protects theswitch and the attached device.
•
Available with active-high or active-low enable
The MIC2546/47’s open-drain flag outputs are used to
indicate current-limiting or thermal shutdown to a local
controller. The MIC2547 has an additional internal latch
Applications
which turns the output off upon thermal shutdown
providing robust fault control. The enable signal is
•
USB power distribution
compatible with both 3V and 5V logic, and is also used as
•
PCI Bus Power Switching
the thermal shutdown latch reset for the MIC2547.
•
Notebook PC
The MIC2546 and MIC2547 are available in active-high
•
ACPI power distribution
and active-low enable versions in 16-pin TSSOP and SOP
•
PC card hot swap applications
packages.
•
Inrush current-limiting
