AAT4601A 1.8A Current Limited P-Channel Switch General Description Features The AAT4601A SmartSwitch is a member of AnalogicTech's Application Specific Power MOSFET™ (ASPM™) product family. It is a 1.8A current limited P-channel MOSFET power switch designed for high-side load switching applications. This switch operates with inputs ranging from 2.7V to 5.5V, making it ideal for both 3V and 5V systems. An integrated current-limiting circuit protects the input supply against large changes in load current which could cause the supply to fall out of regulation. The AAT4601A has protection from thermal overload which limits power dissipation and junction temperatures. The maximum current limit level will guarantee that 1.8A can be delivered to the load; the actual threshold is programmed with a resistor from the SET pin to ground. The quiescent supply current is typically 12µA. In shutdown mode, the supply current decreases to less than 1µA. • • • • • • • • • • • • SmartSwitch™ Input Voltage: 2.7V to 5.5V Programmable Over-Current Threshold Low Quiescent Current — 12µA Typical — Less Than 1µA with Switch Off Only 2.5V Needed for ON Control Thermal Shutdown Fault Flag 2ms Fault Blanking Under-Voltage Lockout Temperature Range: -40°C to +85°C 4kV ESD rating UL Approved—File No. E217765 8-Pin SOP, TSSOP, or MSOP Package Applications The AAT4601A is available in a Pb-free, 8-pin SOP, TSSOP, or MSOP package and is specified over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range. • • • • Hot Swap Supplies Notebook Computers Peripheral Ports USB Ports UL Recognized Component Typical Application INPUT 1 2 100kΩ 8 1µF ON 3 IN IN OUT AAT4601A OUT FAULT SET ON GND OUTPUT 6 7 5 R SET 1µF 4 4601A.2006.05.1.5 1 AAT4601A 1.8A Current Limited P-Channel Switch Pin Descriptions Pin # Symbol Function 1, 2 IN These pins are the input to the P-channel MOSFET source.

The current limit control is combined with an over-temperature thermal limit circuit to provide a comprehensive system to protect the load switch under short-circuit or other adverse operating conditions. The AAT4601A is ideally suited for control and protection of peripheral ports such as USB, RS232, and parallel ports. The current limit and over-temperature circuits will act independently. The device current limit is activated when the output load current exceeds an internal threshold level. The internal current limit threshold is determined by an external resistor connected between the SET pin and ground. The minimum current limit threshold is specified by ILIM(MIN). If the load switch ambient temperature becomes excessive or if a short-circuit condition persists, the die temperature will rise causing the over-temperature protection circuit to activate. If a current limit level less than ILIM(MIN) is required, the AAT4601A can be used to operate in foldback 8 Current Limit SET current limit mode. To achieve this, an RSET value can be chosen to program a current limit lower than ILIM(MIN); in this case, when the load current reaches ILIM(MIN), the current will immediately drop, limiting at the programmed value. If the current limit or over-temperature protection circuits are active for more than 2ms, the system will be informed via the FAULT flag. The 2ms delay allows the AAT4601A to be turned on into capacitive loads without activating the FAULT flag. The open drain FAULT output can be connected directly to system controllers driven by voltage levels less than the IN pin voltage without additional level shifting circuitry. The load switch is turned off by applying a logic high level to the ON pin. The AAT4601A typically consumes 12µA when operating; when off, the device draws less than 1µA. In the off state, current is prevented from flowing between the input and output. The ON function has logic level thresholds that allow the AAT4601A to be TTL compatible and may also be controlled by 2.5V to 5.0V CMOS circuits. The voltage level on either ON or FAULT should not exceed the input supply level present on the IN pin. 4601A.2006.05.1.5 AAT4601A 1.8A Current Limited P-Channel Switch Applications Information Setting Current Limit A simple three-step procedure can be used to adjust the AAT4601A's current limit. First, the maximum current required by the load should be determined. Second, select a resistor that guarantees adequate current is available to the load under normal conditions. Finally, the maximum current that can pass through the switch can be calculated and compared to the maximum current available. Step 1: The maximum current required by a load is usually defined in port specifications design application references. For example, USB ports may be specified to support loads of up to 500mA. Step 2: The most convenient method for determining a current limit resistor value is to look it up in Table 1, "Current Limit RSET Values." Find the lowest current value that is greater than the maximum load current in the given application as listed in the column, "Device Will Not Current Limit Below." The resistor value needed is listed in the corresponding row in the column, "RSET." For example, a USB port requires 500mA. The lowest level where the device will current limit above 500mA is 507mA. The corresponding resistor value for RSET would be 33kΩ. Step 3: Now the required resistor value has been determined. The maximum current that can be drawn, even with a short circuit applied to the output, can be determined by reading the column, "Device Always Current Limits Below." If the power supply connected to the AAT4601A's input can provide this current level, the power supply voltage will not collapse when a short circuit is applied to the load switch output. For example, a notebook computer has a USB port which is powered by an AAT4601A with a 33kΩ resistor connected between the SET pin and GND. If the power supply connected to the AAT4601A's IN pin can provide more than 845mA, this supply will remain in regulation even if a short circuit is applied to the USB port. 4601A.2006.05.1.5 RSET Ω) (kΩ 7.5 8.2 9.1 10 11 12 13 15 16 18 20 22 24 27 30 33 36 39 43 47 51 56 62 68 75 82 91 100 110 120 130 150 160 Current Device Will Not Device Always Limit Current Limit Current Limits Typ (mA) Below (mA) Below (mA) 2476 2277 2065 1895 1748 1633 1528 1353 1280 1158 1055 972 897 811 736 676 625 582 533 491 455 418 380 350 320 295 267 245 223 206 192 167 157 1857 1708 1549 1421 1311 1224 1146 1015 960 869 791 729 673 608 552 507 469 436 400 368 341 314 285 262 240 221 200 183 167 155 144 125 118 3095 2847 2581 2369 2185 2041 1910 1691 1600 1448 1318 1215 1122 1014 919 845 781 727 666 613 568 523 476 437 400 369 334 306 279 258 239 209 197 Figure 1: Current Limit RSET Values. 9 AAT4601A 1.8A Current Limited P-Channel Switch Operation in Current Limit load. In these applications, the maximum current available without risk of activation of the over-temperature circuit can be calculated. The maximum internal temperature while current limit is not active can be calculated using Equation 1: If an excessive load is applied to the output of an AAT4601A, the load current will be limited by the device's current limit circuitry as shown in Figure 1, "Overload Operation." If a short circuit were to occur on the load, it would demand more current than allowed by the internal current limiting circuit and the voltage at the AAT4601A's output would drop. This causes the AAT4601A to dissipate more power than in normal operation, causing the die temperature to increase. When die temperature exceeds the internal over-temperature threshold, the AAT4601A will shut down. After shutting down, the AAT4601A cools to a level below the over-temperature threshold, at which point it will start up again. The AAT4601A will continue to cycle off and on until one of the following events occurs: the load current is reduced to a level below the AAT4601A's current limit setting; the input power is removed; or the output is turned off by a logic high level applied to the ON pin. Eq. 1: TJ(MAX) = IMAX2 × RDS(ON)(MAX) × RθJA + TA(MAX) In Equation 1, IMAX is the maximum current required by the load. RDS(ON)(MAX) is the maximum rated RDS(ON) of the AAT4601A at high temperature. RθJA is the thermal resistance between the AAT4601A's die and the board onto which it is mounted. TA(MAX) is the maximum ambient temperature for the printed circuit board assembly under the AAT4601A when the load switch is not dissipating power. Equation 1 can be transformed to provide IMAX; refer to Equation 2: Thermal Considerations Eq. 2: IMAX = Since the AAT4601A has internal current limit and over-temperature protection, junction temperature is rarely a concern. If an application requires a large load current in a high-temperature operating environment, there is the possibility that the over-temperature protection circuit, rather than the current limit circuit, will regulate the current available to the TSD(MIN) - TA(MAX) RDS(ON)(MAX) × RΘJA TSD(MIN) is the minimum temperature required to activate the AAT4601A's over-temperature protection. With a typical specification of 125°C, 115°C is a safe minimum value to use. 6 5 Input Voltage Voltage (V) 4 1Ω is Applied to Output at t = 0 RSET is 33kΩ 3 2 Output Voltage 1 0 -0.5 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 Time (s) Figure 1: Overload Operation. 10 4601A.2006.05.1.5 AAT4601A 1.8A Current Limited P-Channel Switch For example, a portable device is specified to operate in a 50°C environment. The printed circuit board assembly will operate at temperatures as high as 85°C. This portable device has a sealed case and the area of the printed circuit board assembly is relatively small, causing RθJA to be approximately 120°C/W. Using Equation 2: Eq. 3: IMAX = 115 - 85 = 1.4A 130 · 120 If this system requires less than 1.4A, the thermal limit will not activate during normal operation. Input Capacitor The input capacitor serves two purposes. First, it protects the source power supply from transient current effects generated by the application load circuit. If a short circuit is suddenly applied to the output of an AAT4601A, there is a microsecondlong period during which a large current can flow before the current limit circuitry activates; refer to the characteristic curve, "Short-Circuit Through 0.3Ω." A properly sized input capacitor can dramatically reduce the load switch input transient response effects seen by the power supply and other circuitry upstream from the AAT4601A. The second purpose of the input capacitor is to prevent transient events generated by the load circuit from affecting operation of the AAT4601A. For example, if an AAT4601A is used in a circuit that operates from a 3V power supply with poor step load response, it is possible that turning on the load switch could cause the input power supply to droop below the AAT4601A's under-voltage lockout threshold. This drop in voltage would cause the AAT4601A to turn off until the input power supply's voltage recovers. Since this cycle would be selfperpetuating, the entire circuit could be seen to be unstable. In the very rare case where capacitor cost is prohibitive, the output load circuit should be slew rate limited when turned on. 4601A.2006.05.1.5 Output Capacitor In order to insure stability while the device current limit is active, a small capacitance of approximately 1µF should be used. When the AAT4601A is activated using the ON function, there are no momentary current transients, as in the case when a short circuit is suddenly applied to a device that is already on; refer to the characteristic curve, "Switch Turn-On Time." No matter how big the output capacitor, output current is limited to the value allowed by the threshold determined by RSET and the internal current limiting circuitry. This permits very large output capacitors to be used. For example, USB ports are specified to have at least 120µF of downstream capacitance from their controlling power switch. An output capacitance as large as 1000µF would not disturb the input power supply to the AAT4601A used to control the USB port. ON Input When the AAT4601A is in the off state, the output is an open circuit and the device quiecent current consumption is reduced to less than 1µA. The ON threshold voltage is set to allow the AAT4601A to be controlled by 5V TTL levels as well as CMOS power from 2.5V to 5V. The ON function control voltage level should not exceed the input supply level applied to the IN pin. FAULT Output A FAULT flag is provided to alert a system if the load switch is not receiving a sufficient voltage level to properly operate. If either the current limit or overtemperature circuits in any combination are continuously active for more than approximately 2ms, the FAULT pin is pulled to ground internally through a 100Ω resistance. The 2ms delay on the FAULT function is intended to prevent capacitive loads connected to the load switch output from activating FAULT when the device is turned on. The placement of a pull-up resistor between the FAULT pin and the IN pin is recommended. Reasonable values for the pull-up resistor should range from 10kΩ to 100kΩ. Since FAULT is an open drain terminal, 11 AAT4601A 1.8A Current Limited P-Channel Switch it may be pulled up to any voltage that is not greater than the level present on the IN pin. This is done to allow the AAT4601A to signal ancillary circuitry that is powered by a voltage level less than the level on the IN pin. Reverse Voltage The AAT4601A is designed to control current flowing from IN to OUT. If a voltage is applied to OUT that is greater than that on IN, a large resulting reverse current may flow, potentially damaging the AAT4601A. Printed Circuit Board Layout Recommendations For proper thermal management, and to take advantage of the low RDS(ON) of the AAT4601A, a few circuit board layout rules should be followed: VIN and VOUT should be routed using wider than normal traces, and GND should be connected to a ground plane. For best performance, CIN and COUT should be placed close to the package pins. Evaluation Board Layout The AAT4601A evaluation layout follows the printed circuit board layout recommendations and can be used for good applications layout. Note: Board layout shown is not to scale.
