2A, Current-Limited, High-Side
P-Channel Switch with Thermal Shutdown
The MAX869L features a 2A, 45mΩ switch controlled
by a logic signal. Current-limit accuracy is ±21%, and
can be set from 400mA to 2.4A using a single resistor.
The device has a low 12µA quiescent supply current,
which reduces to 2µA max in shutdown. It features thermal-shutdown protection and a logic-signal output pin
(FAULT) that signals when there is an overcurrent or
overtemperature condition.
For other devices in this family, consult the Selector

_______________General Description
The MAX869L P-channel load switch features an accurate user-set current limit and low on-resistance. This
switch is designed to protect your power source from
shorts and surges by limiting current and preventing
the system supply from being pulled low. The input voltage range is 2.7V to 5.5V.

FUNCTION
_______________Detailed Description
The MAX869L P-channel MOSFET power switch limits
output current to a programmed level. When the output
current passes through the main switch, a smaller current also passes through the replica switch (IOUT / 955)
and through RSET (Figure 1). When the voltage on RSET
exceeds the trip voltage of 1.24V, the current-limit error
amplifier regulates the output current to the programmed current limit, ILIMIT (400mA to 2.4A).
This switch is not bidirectional; therefore, the input voltage must be higher than the output voltage.
Setting the Current Limit
The MAX869L features internal current-limiting circuitry
with a maximum programmable value (IMAX) of 2.4A.
For best performance, set the current limit (I LIMIT )
between 0.2 IMAX ≤ ILIMIT ≤ IMAX. This current limit
remains in effect throughout the input supply-voltage
range.
Program the current limit with a resistor (R SET) from
SET to ground (Figure 2) as follows:
ISET = ILIMIT / 955
RSET = 1.24V / ISET = 1,184 / ILIMIT
where ILIMIT is the desired current limit.

Fault Indicator
The MAX869L provides a fault output (FAULT). This
open-drain output goes low when in current limit or
when the die temperature exceeds 135°C. A 100kΩ
pull-up resistor from FAULT to IN provides a logiccontrol signal.
__________Applications Information
Short-Circuit Protection
Input Capacitor
The MAX869L is a short-circuit-protected switch. In the
event of an output short circuit (VOUT ≤ 1.6V typical),
the current through the switch is limited by the internal
current-limiting error amplifier to 1.4 x ILIMIT. When the
short-circuit condition is removed, the current-limit
amplifier sets the current limit back to ILIMIT.
For a high ∆VDS/∆t during an output short-circuit condition, the switch turns off and disconnects the input supply
from the output. The current-limiting amplifier then slowly turns the switch on with the output current limited to
1.4 x I LIMIT . When the short-circuit condition is
removed, the current limit is set back to ILIMIT. Refer to the
Fast Current-Limit Response and Slow Current-Limit
Response graphs in the Typical Operating Characteristics.
To limit the input voltage drop during momentary output
short-circuit conditions, connect a capacitor from IN to
GND. A 1µF ceramic capacitor is adequate for most
applications; however, higher capacitor values further
reduce the voltage drop at the input.
Thermal Shutdown
The MAX869L features thermal shutdown. The switch
turns off when the junction temperature exceeds 135°C.
Once the device cools by 10°C, the switch turns back
on. If the fault condition is not removed, the switch
cycles on and off, resulting in a pulsed output.
Output Capacitor
Connect a 0.1µF capacitor from OUT to GND to prevent
inductive parasitics from pulling OUT below GND during turn-off. USB applications require COUT to be at
least 120µF. This larger output capacitance slows the
output rise and fall times, as shown in the Typical
Operating Characteristics , but does not adversely
affect the MAX869L’s turn-off response time.
Layout and Thermal-Dissipation
Considerations
To take full advantage of the switch-response time to
output short-circuit conditions, it is very important to
keep all traces as short as possible to reduce the effect
of undesirable parasitic inductance. Place input and
output capacitors as close as possible to the device
(less than 5mm).
_______________________________________________________________________________________

MAX869L
2A, Current-Limited, High-Side
P-Channel Switch with Thermal Shutdown
Under normal operating conditions, the package can
dissipate and channel heat away. Calculate the maximum power as follows:
P = I2LIMIT x RON
where RON is the on-resistance of the switch.
__________________Pin Configuration
When the output is short circuited, the voltage drop
across the switch equals the input supply. Hence, the
power dissipated across the switch increases, as does
the die temperature. If the fault condition is not
removed, the thermal-overload-protection circuitry turns
the switch off until the die temperature falls by 10°C. A
ground plane in contact with the device helps dissipate
additional heat.
