MIC94070/71/72/73 High Side Power Switches General Description Features The MIC94070-73 are high-side load switches designed 1.7V to 5.5V input voltage range for operation between 1.7V to 5.5V. The devices contain 1.2A continuous operating current a low on-resistance P-channel MOSFET that supports 3A pulse current 1.2A of continuous current. The MIC94071 and 120m R (typical) DSON MIC94073 feature an active load discharge circuit which insures capacitive loads retain no charge when the main Built-in level shift for control logic can be operated by switch is in an OFF state. 1.5V logic. MIC94070-71 feature rapid turn on while MIC94072-73 Low 2A quiescent current provide a slew rate controlled Soft-Start turn-on of 800s Soft-Start: MIC94072/73 (typical) to prevent in-rush current from glitching supply Micro-power shutdown <1A rails. Load discharge circuit: MIC94071, MIC94073 An active pull-down on the enable input keeps Space saving 1.2mm 1.6mm Thin MLF package MIC94070-73 in a default OFF state until the EN pin is pulled to a high level. Built-in level shift circuitry allows low voltage logic signals to switch higher supply Applications voltages, or vice versa high level logic signals can Load switch in portable applications: control low level voltages. - Cellular phones MIC94070-73s operating voltage range makes them - PDAs suitable for 1-cell Lithium ion and 2- to 3-cell NiMH/NiCad/Alkaline powered systems, as well as all 5V - MP3 players applications. Their low operating current of 2A and low - Digital Cameras shutdown current of <1A maximize battery life. - Portable instrumentation Data sheets and support documentation can be found on Battery switch-over circuits Micrels web site at: www.micrel.com.
