PI2161-EVAL1 Datasheet, PDF (2/8 Pages) Vicor Corporation – PI2161-EVAL1 60V/12A High Side High Voltage Load Disconnect Switch
 PI2161 Product Description
The Cool-Switch® PI2161 is a complete full-function Load
Disconnect Switch solution for medium voltage
applications with a high-speed electronic circuit breaker
and a very low on-state resistance MOSFET. It is
designed to protect an input power bus from output load
fault conditions. The PI2161 Cool-Switch solution is
offered in an extremely small, thermally enhanced 7mm x
8mm LGA package. The PI2161 enables an extremely low
power loss solution with fast dynamic response to an
over current fault or high conditions. The PI2161
senses a small portion of the total MOSFET current and
has a low voltage threshold allowing the use of low
power sense resistors.
Figure 1, shows a photo of the PI2161-EVAL1 evaluation
board with one load disconnect switch PI2161 SiP. The
board is built with options and features that enable the
user to fully explore the capabilities of the PI2161 Load
Disconnect Switch.
