DETAILED DESCRIPTION

SiP32460, SiP32461, and SiP32462 are high side, slew rate

controlled, load switches. They incorporate a negative

charge pump at the gate to keep the gate to source voltage

high when turned on. This keeps the on resistance low at

lower input voltages. SiP32460 and SiP32461 are designed

with slow slew rate to minimize inrush current during turn on.

These devices have a reverse blocking circuit, when

disabled, to prevent the current from going back to the input

when the output voltage is higher than the input voltage. The

SiP32460 and SiP32462 can be used as bi-directional

switches and can be turned ON and OFF when power is at

either IN or OUT. The SiP32461 has an output pull down

resistor to discharge the output capacitance when the

device is off.

APPLICATION INFORMATION

Input Capacitor

While a bypass capacitor on the input is not required, a

all applications. The bypass capacitor should be placed as

physically close as possible to the input pin to be effective

in minimizing transients on the input. Ceramic capacitors are

recommended over tantalum because of their ability to

withstand input current surges from low impedance sources

such as batteries in portable devices.

Output Capacitor

to insure proper slew operation. There is inrush current

through the output MOSFET and the magnitude of the

inrush current depends on the output capacitor, the bigger

capacitor type requirement.

Enable

The EN pin is compatible with CMOS logic voltage levels. It

requires at least 0.4 V or below to fully shut down the device

and 1 V or above to fully turn on the device. There is a

2.6 M

Ω resistor connected between EN pin and GND pin.

Protection Against Reverse Voltage Condition

This device contains a reverse blocking circuit. When

current from flowing back to the input when the output

voltage is higher than the input voltage.

Thermal Considerations

Due to physical limitations of the layout and assembly of the

device the maximum switch current is 1.2 A as stated in the

Absolute Maximum Ratings table. However, another limiting

characteristic for the safe operating load current is the

thermal power dissipation of the package.

The maximum power dissipation in any application is

dependent

on

the

maximum

junction

temperature,

may be expressed as:

It then follows that, assuming an ambient temperature of

70 °C, the maximum power dissipation will be limited to

about 268 mW.

So long as the load current is below the 1.2 A limit, the

maximum continuous switch current becomes a function

at the ambient temperature.

As an example let us calculate the worst case maximum

is 120 m

extrapolated from this data using the following formula:

ΔT)

we have

Ω x (1 + 0.0028 x (70 °C - 25 °C))

= 135 m

Ω

The maximum current limit is then determined by

which in this case is 1.99 A. Under the stated input voltage

condition, if the 1.99 A current limit is exceeded the internal

die temperature will rise and eventually, possibly damage

the device.

To avoid possible permanent damage to the device and

keep a reasonable design margin, it is recommended to

operate the device maximum up to 1.2 A only as listed in the

Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
