PRECISION ADJUSTABLE CURRENT-LIMITED POWER SWITCHES
Description
Pin Assignments
The AP2552/53 and AP2552A/53A are single channel precision
adjustable current-limited switches optimized for applications that
require precision current limiting, or to provide up to 2.1A of
(Top View)
continuous load current during heavy loads/short circuits. These
devices offer a programmable current-limit threshold between 75mA
and 2.36A (typ) via an external resistor. Current limit accuracy ±6%
can be achieved at high current-limit settings. The rise and fall times
are controlled to minimize current surges during turn on/off.

Application Information
The AP2552/53 AND AP2552A/53A are integrated high-side power switches optimized for Universal Serial Bus (USB) that require protection
functions. The power switches are equipped with a driver that controls the gate voltage and incorporates slew-rate limitation. This, along with the
various protection features and special functions, makes these power switches ideal for hot-swap or hot-plug applications.
Protection Features:
Under-Voltage Lockout (UVLO)
Whenever the input voltage falls below UVLO threshold (~2.5V), the power switch is turned off. This facilitates the design of hot-insertion
systems where it is not possible to turn off the power switch before input power is removed.
Over-Current and Short-Circuit Protection
An internal sensing FET is employed to check for over-current conditions. Unlike current-sense resistors, sense FETs do not increase the series
resistance of the current path. When an overcurrent condition is detected, AP2552/53 maintains a constant output current and reduces the
output voltage accordingly. Complete shutdown occurs only if the fault stays long enough to activate thermal limiting.
For AP2552A/53A, when an overcurrent condition is detected, the devices will limit the current until the overload condition is removed or the
internal deglitch time (7-ms typical) is reached, and AP2552A/53A will be turned off. AP2552A/53A will remain latched off until power is cycled
or the device enable is toggled.
The different overload conditions and the corresponding response of the AP2552/53 and AP2552A/53A are outlined below:
NO

Conditions
Short-circuit condition at
start-up
Explanation
Output is shorted before input
voltage is applied or before the
part is enabled
Behavior of the AP2552/53
The IC senses the short circuit and immediately clamps output
current to a certain safe level namely ISHORT.
 At the instance the overload occurs, higher current may flow
for a very short period of time before the current limit function
can react.
 After the current limit function has tripped (reached the overcurrent trip threshold), the device switches into current
limiting mode and the current is clamped at ISHORT /ILIMIT.
The current rises until ILIMIT or thermal limit. Once the threshold
has been reached, the device switches into its current limiting
mode and is set at ILIMIT.

typical) is reached and the devices will be turned off.
Over-Current FAULT Signal
The FAULT signal will be asserted in response to OCP before the device reaches its current limit. The output current upon FAULT signal
triggered will be lower than the I_limit value. To implement FAULT signal for precision system protection control, it is recommended to leave
enough margin from maximum continuous operating current for each RLIM value condition.

Application Information (cont.)
Current-Limit Threshold Programming
The current-limit threshold can be programmed using an external resistor. The current-limit threshold is proportional to the current sourced out of
ILIM.
The recommended 1% resistor range for RLIM is 10kΩ ≤RLIM≤210kΩ. Figure 15 includes current-limit tolerance due to variations caused by
temperature and process. This graph does not include the external resistor tolerance. The traces routing the RLIM resistor to the AP2552/53 and
AP2552A/53A should be as short as possible to reduce parasitic effects on the current-limit accuracy.
To design below a maximum current-limit threshold, find the intersection of RLIM and the maximum desired load current on the IOS(max) (ILIM)
curve and choose a value of RLIM above this value. Programming the current limit below a maximum threshold is important to avoid current
limiting upstream power supplies causing the input voltage bus to droop. The resulting minimum current-limit threshold is the intersection of the
selected value of RLIM and the IOS(min) (ILIM) curve.

Thermal Protection
Thermal protection prevents the IC from damage when the die temperature exceeds safe margins. This mainly occurs when heavy-overload or
short-circuit faults are present for extended periods of time. The AP2552/53 AND AP2552A/53A implements a thermal sensing to monitor the
operating junction temperature of the power distribution switch. Once the die temperature rises to approximately +160°C (+140°C in case the
part is under current limit), the thermal protection feature activates as follows: The internal thermal sense circuitry turns the power switch off and
the FAULT output is asserted, thus preventing the power switch from damage. Hysteresis in the thermal sense circuit allows the device to cool
down by approximately +20°C before the output is turned back on. This built-in thermal hysteresis feature is an excellent feature, as it avoids
undesirable oscillations of the thermal protection circuit. The switch continues to cycle in this manner until the load fault is removed, resulting in
a pulsed output.

The USB specification does not allow an output device to source current back into the USB port. In a normal MOSFET switch, current will flow in
reverse direction (from the output side to the input side) when the output side voltage is higher than the input side. A reverse-current limit
(ROCP) feature is implemented in the AP2552/53 AND AP2552A/53A to limit such back currents. The ROCP circuit is activated when the output
voltage is higher than the input voltage. After the reverse current circuit has tripped (reached the reverse current trip threshold), the current is
clamped at this IROCP level.
In addition to ROCP, reverse over-voltage protection (ROVP) is also implemented. The ROVP circuit is activated by the reverse voltage
comparator trip point; i.e., the difference between the output voltage and the input voltage.
For AP2552/53, once ROVP is activated, FAULT assertion occurs at a de-glitch time of 4ms. Recovery from ROVP is automatic when the fault is
removed. FAULT de-assertion de-glitch time is same as the de-assertion time.
For AP2552A/53A, once ROVP is activated and when the condition exists for more than 5ms (TYP), output device is disabled and shut down.
This is called the "Time from Reverse-Voltage Condition to MOSFET Turn Off”. FAULT assertion occurs at a de-glitch time of 4ms after ROVP is
reached. Recovery from this fault is achieved by recycling power or toggling EN. FAULT de-assertion de-glitch time is same as the de-assertion
time.
Special Functions:
Discharge Function
When enable is de-asserted, or when the input voltage is under UVLO level, the discharge function is active. The output capacitor is discharged
through an internal NMOS that has a discharge resistance of 100Ω. Hence, the output voltage drops down to zero. The time taken for discharge
is dependent on the RC time constant of the resistance and the output capacitor.
FAULT Response
The FAULT open-drain output goes active low for any of following faults: Current limit threshold, short- circuit current limit, reverse-voltage
condition or thermal shutdown. The time from when a fault condition is encountered to when the FAULT output goes low is 7ms (TYP). The
FAULT output remains low until over-current, short-circuit current limit and over-temperature conditions are removed. Connecting a heavy
capacitive load to the output of the device can cause a momentary over-current condition, which does not trigger the FAULT due to the 7ms
deglitch timeout. This 7-ms timeout is also applicable for over-current recovery and over-temperature recovery. The AP2552/53 and
AP2552-2/53A are designed to eliminate erroneous over-current reporting without the need for external components, such as an RC delay
network.
For the AP2552/53 and AP2552A/53A when the reverse voltage condition is triggered, FAULT output goes low after 4ms (TYP). This 4ms (TYP)
timeout is also applicable for the recovery from reverse voltage fault.
When the ILIM pin is shorted to IN or GND, current-limit threshold and short-circuit current limit will be clamped at typically 75mA. When the ILIM
pin is shorted to IN or GND, the AP2552/53 and AP2552A/53A FAULT pin will not assert during current limiting conditions; The FAULT pin will
assert during short circuit conditions.
Power Supply Considerations
A 0.01-μF to 0.1-μF X7R or X5R ceramic bypass capacitor between IN and GND, close to the device, is recommended. This limits the input
voltage drop during line transients. Placing a high-value electrolytic capacitor on the input (10μF minimum) and output pin (120µF) is
recommended when the output load is heavy. This precaution also reduces power-supply transients that may cause ringing on the input.
Additionally, bypassing the device output with a 0.1μF to 4.7μF ceramic capacitor improves the immunity of the device to short-circuit transients.
This capacitor also prevents output from going negative during turn-off due to parasitic inductance.
Power Dissipation and Junction Temperature
The low on-resistance of the internal MOSFET allows the small surface-mount packages to pass large current. Using the maximum operating
ambient temperature (TA) and RDS(ON), the power dissipation can be calculated by:
2
PD = RDS(ON)× I
Finally, calculate the junction temperature:
TJ = PD x ΘJA + TA
Where:
TA = Ambient temperature °C
θJA = Thermal resistance
PD = Total power dissipation

Application Information (cont.)
Generic Hot-Plug Applications
In many applications it may be necessary to remove modules or PC boards while the main unit is still operating. These are considered hot-plug
applications. Such implementations require the control of current surges seen by the main power supply and the card being inserted. The most
effective way to control these surges is to limit and slowly ramp the current and voltage being applied to the card, similar to the way in which a
power supply normally turns on. Due to the controlled rise and fall times of the AP2552/53 AND AP2552A/53A, these devices can be used to
provide a softer start-up to devices being hot-plugged into a powered system. The UVLO feature of the AP2552/53 AND AP2552A/53A also
ensures that the switch is off after the card has been removed, and that the switch is off during the next insertion.
Generic Hot-Plug Applications
By placing the AP2552/53 AND AP2552A/53A between the VCC input and the rest of the circuitry, the input power reaches these devices first
after insertion. The typical rise time of the switch is approximately 1ms, providing a slow voltage ramp at the output of the device. This
implementation controls system surge current and provides a hot-plugging mechanism for any device.
