Adjustable Over Current Power Protection Load Switch, AccuPower, Single Output, 36V, 2A, SOIC-8 - FPF2700MX

The FPF2700MX is an AccuPower™ overcurrent protection Load Switch that provide full protection to systems and loads from excess current conditions. Minimum current limit is adjustable from 0.4 to 2A. The FPF270X contains a slew-rate-controlled N-channel MOSFET and slew-rated turn-on to prevent power bus disturbances from being caused by hot plugging loads or momentary excess load demands. The input voltage range is 2.8 to 36V. Loads can be activated or deactivated with a low-voltage logic-compatible ON pin. Fault conditions can be monitored using the error flag pin and/or the power-good pin. All devices clamp the load current so that it cannot exceed an externally programmed current level. An over temperature feature provides further device protection in case of excessive levels of power dissipation. It responds to an overload condition that lasts longer than a fixed blanking period by turning off the load, followed by a retry after the auto-restart time.
