BL2555 Load Switch with Adjustable Current Limit FEATURES 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. 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 Fast Over-Current Response Reversed Current blocking Thermal Shutdown, UVLO protection Tiny DFN2x2-6L Package APPLICATIONS 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.

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 www.belling.com.cn 3 BL2555 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.

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. www.belling.com.cn 4 BL2555 TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS T=25°C unless specified.
