SmartSwitch
General Description
Features
The AAT4651 SmartSwitch is a single channel PC
card (PCMCIA) power switch. It is used to select
between two different voltage inputs, each between
2.7V and 5.5V. An internal switch powers the cir-
cuitry from whichever input voltage is higher. The
device's output, VCC, is slew rate controlled and cur-
rent limited, in compliance with PC card specifica-
tions. The current limit response time to a short cir-
cuit is typically 1µs. The internal P-channel MOS-
FET switches are configured to break before make;
that is, both switches cannot be closed at the same
time. Controlled by a 2-bit parallel interface, the
three states for VCC are VCC5, VCC3, or ground.
When in the ground state, VCC is pulled to ground by
an 200Ω resistor. An open drain FAULT output is
asserted during over-current conditions. During
power-up slewing, FAULT also signals that VCC is
out of tolerance. An internal over-temperature sen-
sor forces VCC to a high impedance state when an
over-temperature condition exists. Quiescent cur-
rent is typically a low 15µA, as long as ICC is less
than approximately 500mA. Above this load current,
the quiescent current increases to 200µA.
