The AP2280-1WG-7 is a high-performance, single-channel current-limited integrated high-side power switch from Diodes Incorporated, designed for USB and other hot-swap applications. This compact and efficient device is housed in a small 6-pin SOT-25 package, making it an ideal solution for space-constrained applications.
Key Features
- Current Limiting: The AP2280-1WG-7 provides accurate current limiting to protect the host device from overcurrent conditions. It is capable of delivering a continuous output current of up to 1.5A, which makes it suitable for a wide range of USB peripherals and other power-sensitive applications.
- Fast Response Time: The device features a fast transient response time, which is critical for protecting sensitive electronic components from abrupt changes in current flow.
- Over-Temperature Protection: An integrated over-temperature protection circuit ensures that the device shuts down safely in the event of excessive heat, thereby preventing thermal damage to the circuit components.
- Reverse Current Blocking: The built-in reverse current blocking feature prevents current from flowing backward through the switch when it is powered off, thus safeguarding the upstream power source.
- Controlled Rise Time: The AP2280-1WG-7 is engineered with a controlled rise time to minimize inrush current, further enhancing the protection of downstream components.
- Low Standby Current: The device exhibits a low standby current, which is crucial for battery-powered applications where power conservation is a priority.
