MIC2042/2043 Micrel MIC2042/2043
Single Channel, High Current, Low Voltage,
Protected Power Distribution Switch General Description Features The MIC2042 and MIC2043 are high-side MOSFET switches
optimized for general purpose power distribution applications
which require circuit protection. The devices switch up to 5.5V
and as low as 0.8V while offering both programmable current
limiting and thermal shutdown to protect the device and the
load. A fault status output is provided in order to detect
overcurrent and thermal shutdown fault conditions. Both
devices employ soft-start circuitry to minimize the inrush
current in applications that employ highly capacitive loads.
Additionally, for tighter control over inrush current during
start-up, the output slew-rate may be adjusted by an external
capacitor.
The MIC2043 features a auto-reset circuit breaker mode that
latches the output off upon detecting an overcurrent condition
lasting more than 28ms. The output is reset by removing or
reducing the load.
