MP5018
5V, 1A-5A Current Limit Switch
with Reverse Current Blocking
and Output Over-voltage Clamp
The Future of Analog IC Technology
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MP5018 is a protection device designed to
protect circuitry on the output from transients on
input (VCC). It also protects VCC from undesired
shorts and transients coming from the output.

16V Absolute Maximum Input Voltage
5.8V Fast OVP Response
Reverse Current Blocking
Integrated 45mΩ Power FET
Adjustable Current-Limit or Fixed Current
Limit when floating ILIMIT pin
210μA Typical Low Quiescent Current
Adjustable Soft Start time
At startup, inrush current is limited by the slew
rate at the output. The slew rate is controlled by
a small capacitor at the SS pin. Floating the SS
pin provides 13ms soft-start time.
The maximum load at the output is current
limited. The magnitude of the current limit is
controlled by an external resistor from ILIMIT to
GND. Floating ILIMIT pin provides 3A fixed
current limit. By controlling the gate voltage of a
pair of N-channel MOSFETs, any current
flowing from output to input is blocked.

Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO) assures that
input is above the minimum operating threshold,
before the power device is turned on. If input
voltage goes above 5.8V, the output voltage will
be limited at 5.8V with fast response.

Switches/Routers
The EN/Fault pin is a bi-directional, three-level
I/O with a weak pull-up. It can be used to
enable or disable MP5018, or indicate a fault
condition.
The device is available in a QFN12 (2mmx3mm)
package.
