DIODES Incorporated Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers AP2820BM-G1

The AP2820BM-G1 is a high-side power distribution switch designed for applications requiring reliable power management. It features an integrated N-Channel MOSFET with a low on-resistance of 60mOc, suitable for USB voltage drop requirements. The device supports a continuous load of 2.0A and operates within a voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V. Key protective features include over-current protection, thermal shutdown, and load short protection with fold-back, ensuring safe operation during hot plug-in scenarios. The AP2820BM-G1 also includes a soft-start function to limit inrush current and an under-voltage lockout (UVLO) to prevent operation without a valid input voltage. A FLAG output is provided to indicate fault conditions to the USB controller. The product is available in SOIC-8 and MSOP-8 packages, making it suitable for various compact designs.
