General Description
The MIC2525 is an integrated high-side power switch, opti-
mized for self-powered and bus-powered Universal Serial
Bus (USB) applications. Few external components are nec-
essary to satisfy USB requirements.
The MIC2525 satisfies the following USB requirements: each
switch channel supplies up to 500mA as required by USB
downstream devices; the switch’s low on-resistance meets
USB voltage drop requirements; fault current is limited to
typically 750mA, well below the UL 25VA safety require-
ments; and a flag output is available to indicate fault condi-
tions to the local USB controller. Soft start eliminates the
momentary voltage drop on the upstream port that may occur
when the switch is enabled in bus-powered applications.
Additional features include thermal shutdown to prevent
catastrophic switch failure from high-current loads,
undervoltage lockout (UVLO) to ensure that the device re-
mains off unless there is a valid input voltage present, and
3.3V and 5V logic compatible enable inputs.
The MIC2525 is a UL recognized component and is available
in active-high and active-low versions in 8-pin DIP and SOIC
packages.
For new designs, please see the MIC2025/2075.
