PLANO, Texas -- (Business Wire)
Diodes Incorporated (Nasdaq: DIOD), a leading global manufacturer and
supplier of high-quality application specific standard products within
the broad discrete, logic, analog and mixed-signal semiconductor
markets, today introduced the AP22815 and AP22615 3A single-channel
high-side power switches for USB ports and other hot-swap applications.
These devices are designed to provide protection for any sensitive
electronic equipment that is used in a hot-swap situation, such as USB
peripherals, portable electronics, or external storage devices.
The highly integrated high-side switches provide extensive port
protection with auto-recovery, including over-voltage, over-current,
short-circuit, and over-temperature. In addition, they feature
controlled rise-time and under-voltage lock-out, as well as a discharge
function for external storage capacitors.
Based on an N-channel MOSFET and Diodes Incorporated’s patented
copper-pillar packaging technology to achieve an exceptionally low
on-resistance, the power switches feature a wide input voltage range of
3.0V to 5.0V and an adjustable limited load current of up to 4.0A
(AP22615 only). With a low RDS(ON) of just 40mΩ and high ESD
protection (2kV human body model, 200V machine model), the AP22815/615
are integrated load switches that are well-suited for a range of
applications, including notebooks, netbooks, tablets, set-top boxes, USB
chargers, and other consumer electronics.
As well as having integrated load-current limiting, which is adjustable
in the AP22615, the high-side power switches are fully compliant with
the USB power delivery and fast-role swap specifications. This ensures
that the internal power transistor will detect and react to the presence
or absence of a power rail within 150µs, thereby supporting the
hot-swapping of USB power sinks and sources without resulting in any
disruption to the consumer experience.
Both devices feature an enable-pin (which can be specified to be
active-high or active-low) and a dedicated flag output that signals a
fault condition. To accommodate devices with high load capacitance, a
7ms deglitch period is built in to the devices, to avoid false triggers.
