
The BL2555 is a load switch which provides full
protection to systems and loads which may
encounter large current conditions.
BL2555 offers a 95mΩ current-limited switch which
can operate over an input voltage range of 2.5-5.5V.
The current limit can be externally programmed by
a precision resistor, ranges from 75mA to 1.7A.
Switch control is by a logic input (EN) capable of
interfacing directly with low voltage control signals.
Current is prevented from flowing when the switch
is off and the output voltage is higher than the input
voltage.
Up to 1.5A Max Load current
Accurate Current-limit threshold: +/-5%
Programmable Current-limit : 75mA to 1.7A

BL2555 also features thermal shutdown protection
which shuts off the switch to prevent damage to the
part when a continuous over-current condition
causes excessive heating. When the switch current
reaches the current limit, the parts operate in a
constant-current mode to prohibit excessive
currents from causing damage.

FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
The BL2555 is a load switch which provides full
protection to systems and loads which may encounter
large current conditions. BL2555 offers a 95mΩ
current-limited switch which can operate over an
input voltage range of 2.5-5.5V. The current limit can
be externally programmed by a precision resistor,
ranges from 75mA to 1.7A.
limiting at less than a minimum value. The current at
which the parts will limit is adjustable through the
selection of an external resistor connected to ILIM.
Information for selecting the resistor is found in the
Application Info section.
THERMAL PROTECTION
BL2555 thermal cycles if an overload condition is
present long enough to activate thermal limiting in any
of the above cases. The device turns off when the
junction temperature exceeds 135°C (typ) while in
current limit. The device remains off until the junction
temperature cools 10°C (typ) and then restarts
BL2555 also features reverse voltage blocking, UVLO,
and thermal shutdown to protect IC from overheating.
CURRENT LIMITING
The current limit ensures that the current through the
switch doesn't exceed a maximum value while not

REVERSE-VOLTAGE BLOCKING
The reverse-voltage protection feature turns off the
Power MOSFET whenever the output voltage exceeds
the input voltage by 150mV (typ) for 4-ms (typ). This
prevents damage to devices on the input side of the
BL2555 by preventing significant current from sinking
into the input capacitance. The BL2555 allow the
power MOSFET to turn on once the output voltage
goes below the input voltage for the same 4-ms
deglitch time.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
INPUT OUTPUT CAPACITANCE
Input and output capacitance improves the performance of the device; the actual capacitance should be optimized for
the particular application. For all applications, a 4.7µF or greater ceramic bypass capacitor between IN and GND is
recommended as close to the device as possible for local noise de-coupling. This precaution reduces ringing on the
input due to power-supply transients. Additional input capacitance may be needed on the input to reduce voltage
overshoot from exceeding the absolute maximum voltage of the device during heavy transient conditions. This is
especially important during bench testing when long, inductive cables are used to connect the evaluation board to the
bench power-supply. Placing a high-value electrolytic capacitor on the output pin is recommended when large
transient currents are expected on the output.

THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
During normal operation as a switch, the power dissipated in the part will depend upon the level at which the current
limit is set. The maximum allowed setting for the current limit is 1A and this will result in a power dissipation of,
2
2
P = (ILIM) x RDS = (1) x 0.10 = 100mW
If the part goes into current limit the maximum power dissipation will occur when the output is shorted to ground.
This is more power than the package can dissipate, but the thermal shutdown of the part will activate to protect the
part from damage due to excessive heating. A short on the output will cause the part to operate in a constant current
state dissipating a worst case power of,
P(max) = VIN(max) x ILIM(max) = 5.5 x 1 = 5W
This large amount of power will activate the thermal shutdown and the part will cycle in and out of thermal shutdown
so long as the ON pin is active and the short is present.
