MIC2027/2077
Quad USB Power Distribution Switch
Preliminary Information
General Description
Features
The MIC2027 and MIC2077 are quad high-side MOSFET
switches optimized for general-purpose power distribution
requiring circuit protection. The MIC2027/77 are internally
current limited and have thermal shutdown that protects the
device and load.
The MIC2077 offers “smart” thermal shutdown that reduces
current consumption in fault modes. When a thermal shutdown fault occurs, the output is latched off until the faulty load
is removed. Removing the load or toggling the enable input
will reset the device output.
Both devices employ soft-start circuitry that minimizes inrush
current in applications where highly capacitive loads are
employed.
A fault status output flag is asserted during overcurrent and
thermal shutdown conditions. Transient current limit faults
are internally filtered.
The MIC2027/77 is available in narrow (150 mil) and wide
(300 mil) SOP (small outline packages).

Note 1.
Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device.
Note 2.
The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
Note 3.
Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions recommended. Human body model, 1.5k in series with 100pF.
Note 4.
If there is an output current limit fault on one channel, that channel will shut down when the die reaches approximately 140°C. If the die
reaches approximately 160°C, the other channel driven by the same input will shut down, even if neither channel is in current limit.

TJ = junction temperature

θJA = is the thermal resistance of the package
Current Sensing and Limiting
The current-limit threshold is preset internally. The preset
level prevents damage to the device and external load but still
allows a minimum current of 500mA to be delivered to the
load.
The current-limit circuit senses a portion of the output MOSFET switch current. The current-sense resistor shown in the
block diagram is virtual and has no voltage drop. The reaction
to an overcurrent condition varies with three scenarios:
Functional Description
Input and Output
IN is the power supply connection to the logic circuitry and the
drain of the output MOSFET. OUT is the source of the output
MOSFET. In a typical circuit, current flows from IN to OUT
toward the load. If VOUT is greater than VIN, current will flow
from OUT to IN, since the switch is bidirectional when
enabled. The output MOSFET and driver circuitry are also
designed to allow the MOSFET source to be externally forced
to a higher voltage than the drain (VOUT > VIN) when the
switch is disabled. In this situation, the MIC2027/77 prevents
undesirable current flow from OUT to IN.
Thermal Shutdown
Thermal shutdown is employed to protect the device from
damage should the die temperature exceed safe margins
due mainly to short circuit faults. Each channel employs its
own thermal sensor. Thermal shutdown shuts off the output
MOSFET and asserts the FLG output if the die temperature
reaches 140°C and the overheated channel is in current limit.
The other channels are not effected. If however, the die
temperature exceeds 160°C, all channels will be shut off.
Upon determining a thermal shutdown condition, the MIC2077
will latch the output off and activate a pull-up current source.
When the load is removed, this current source will pull the
output up and reset the latch. Toggling EN will also reset the
latch.
The MIC2027 will automatically reset its output when the die
temperature cools down to 120°C. The MIC2027 output and
FLG signal will continue to cycle on and off until the device is
disabled or the fault is removed. Figure 2 depicts typical
timing.
Depending on PCB layout, package, ambient temperature,
etc., it may take several hundred milliseconds from the
incidence of the fault to the output MOSFET being shut off.
This time will be shortest in the case of a dead short on the
output.
Power Dissipation
The device’s junction temperature depends on several factors such as the load, PCB layout, ambient temperature and
package type. Equations that can be used to calculate power
dissipation of each channel and junction temperature are
found below.
PD = RDS(on) × IOUT2
Total power dissipation of the device will be the summation of
PD for all channels. To relate this to junction temperature, the
following equation can be used:
TJ = PD × θJA + TA
MIC2027/2077
Switch Enabled into Short-Circuit
If a switch is enabled into a heavy load or short-circuit, the
switch immediately enters into a constant-current mode,
limiting the output voltage. The FLG signal is asserted indicating an overcurrent condition.
Short-Circuit Applied to Enabled Output
When a heavy load or short-circuit is applied to an enabled
switch, a large transient current may flow until the currentlimit circuitry responds. Once this occurs the device limits
current to less than the short-circuit current limit specification.
Current-Limit Response—Ramped Load
The MIC2027/77 current-limit profile exhibits a small foldback
effect of about 100mA. Once this current-limit threshold is
exceeded the device switches into a constant current mode.
It is important to note that the device will supply current up to
the current-limit threshold.
Fault Flag
The FLG signal is an N-channel open-drain MOSFET output.
FLG is asserted (active-low) when either an overcurrent or
thermal shutdown condition occurs. In the case of an overcurrent condition, FLG will be asserted only after the flag
response delay time, tD, has elapsed. This ensures that FLG
is asserted only upon valid overcurrent conditions and that
erroneous error reporting is eliminated. For example, false
overcurrent conditions can occur during hot-plug events
when a highly capacitive load is connected and causes a high
transient inrush current that exceeds the current-limit threshold. The FLG response delay time tD is typically 3ms.
Undervoltage Lockout
Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) prevents the output MOSFET
from turning on until VIN exceeds approximately 2.5V. Undervoltage detection functions only when the switch is enabled.

controller from responding to FLG being asserted, an external RC filter, as shown in Figure 3, can be used to filter out
transient FLG assertion. The value of the RC time constant
should be selected to match the length of the transient, less
tD(min) of the MIC2027/77.
Universal Serial Bus (USB) Power Distribution
The MIC2027/77 is ideally suited for USB (Universal Serial
Bus) power distribution applications. The USB specification
defines power distribution for USB host systems such as PCs
and USB hubs. Hubs can either be self-powered or buspowered (that is, powered from the bus). The requirement for
USB self-powered hubs is that the port must supply a minimum of 500mA at an output voltage of 5V ±5%. In addition,
the output power delivered must be limited to below 25VA.
Upon an overcurrent condition, the host must also be notified.
To support hot-plug events, the hub must have a minimum of
120µF of bulk capacitance, preferably low ESR electrolytic or
tantulum. Please refer to Application Note 17 for more details
on designing compliant USB hub and host systems.
Applications Information
Supply Filtering
A 0.1µF to 1µF bypass capacitor positioned close to VIN and
GND of the device is strongly recommended to control supply
transients. Without a bypass capacitor, an output short may
cause sufficient ringing on the input (from supply lead inductance) to damage internal control circuitry.
Printed Circuit Board Hot-Plug
The MIC2027/77 are ideal inrush current-limiters for hot-plug
applications. Due to the integrated charge pump, the
MIC2027/77 presents a high impedance when off and slowly
becomes a low impedance as it turns on. This “soft-start”
feature effectively isolates power supplies from highly capacitive loads by reducing inrush current.
In cases of extremely large capacitive loads (>400µF), the
length of the transient due to inrush current may exceed the
delay provided by the integrated filter. Since this inrush
current exceeds the current-limit flag delay specification,
FLG will be asserted during this time. To prevent the logic
