USB High-Side Power Switch Advance Information
Features
General Description
The G528/G528A is an integrated high-side power
switch optimized for self-powered and bus-powered
Universal Serial Bus (USB) applications.
Typical 110mΩ, Low MOSFET on resistance, at
5.0V
3.0V to 5.5V operating range
100 µA typical on-state supply current
1µA typical standby supply current
Output can be forced higher than input when
operating in off state.
The G528/G528A satisfies the USB standards. The
switch's low on-resistance meets USB voltage drop
requirements. When the output load exceeds cur-
rent-limit threshold, G528/G528A switches into con-
stant-current mode and limit the output current to a
safe level, which is typically 1.4A. An open-drain flag
output is also available to indicate fault conditions to
the local USB controller. Soft start eliminates the mo-
mentary voltage drop on the upstream port that may
occur when the switch is enabled in bus-powered
applications.
1.4A Typical current limit
Thermal shutdown protection
2.4V typical under-voltage lockout (UVLO)
Open-drain fault flag pin
Slow turn-on (soft-start) and fast turnoff
Logic level enable pin, available with active-low
version (G528), or available with active-high
version (G528A)
UL Approved_#E232223
Besides, a thermal shutdown circuit is included to
prevent catastrophic switch failure caused by increas-
ing power dissipation when continuous heavy loads or
short circuit occurs. A under-voltage lockout (UVLO)
circuit ensures that the device remains off unless there
is a valid input voltage present, and an enable input
that is compatible with both 3.3V and 5V logic.
Applications
High-side power protection switch
