DIODES Incorporated Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers AP2820GMMTR-G1

The AP2820GMMTR-G1 is a high-side power distribution switch designed for USB power management applications. It features an integrated N-Channel MOSFET with a low on-resistance of 60mΩ, ensuring compliance with USB voltage drop requirements. This device supports a continuous load of 2.5A 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, which help prevent switch failure during operation. The device also incorporates a soft-start function to limit inrush current and an under-voltage lockout (UVLO) to ensure it remains off until a valid input voltage is present. A FLAG output is provided to indicate fault conditions to the local USB controller. The AP2820GMMTR-G1 is available in an MSOP-8 package and is suitable for applications such as USB bus/self-powered hubs, hot-plug power supplies, and battery charger circuits. It is UL approved and compliant with RoHS standards.
