The FPF2123, FPF2124, and FPF2125 are a series of load
switches which provide full protection to systems and loads
which may encounter large current conditions. These devices
contain a 0.125Ω current-limited P-channel MOSFET which can
operate over an input voltage range of 1.8-5.5V. The current
limit is settable using an external resistor. Internally, current is
prevented from flowing when the MOSFET is off and the output
voltage is higher than the input voltage. Switch control is by a
logic input (ON) capable of interfacing directly with low voltage
control signals. Each part contains 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. For the FPF2123 and FPF2124
if the constant current condition still persists after 10ms, these
parts will shut off the switch. The FPF2123 has an auto-restart
feature which will turn the switch on again after 160ms if the ON
pin is still active. The FPF2124 does not have this auto-restart
feature so the switch will remain off after a current limit fault until
the ON pin is cycled. The FPF2125 will not turn off after a
current limit fault, but will rather remain in the constant current
mode indefinitely. The minimum current limit is 150mA.

The FPF2123, FPF2124, and FPF2125 are current limited
switches that protect systems and loads which can be damaged
or disrupted by the application of high currents. The core of
each device is a 0.125Ω P-channel MOSFET and a controller
capable of functioning over a wide input operating range of
1.8-5.5V. The controller protects against system malfunctions
through current limiting under-voltage lockout and thermal
shutdown. The current limit is adjustable from 150mA to 1.5A
through the selection of an external resistor.
On/OffControl
The ON pin controls the state of the switch. When ON is high,
the switch is in the on state. Activating ON continuously holds
the switch in the on state so long as there is no fault. For all
versions, an under-voltage on V
excess of 140°C overrides the ON control to turn off the switch.
In addition, excessive currents will cause the switch to turn off in
the FPF2123 and FPF2124. The FPF2123 has an Auto-Restart
feature which will automatically turn the switch on again after
160ms. For the FPF2124, the ON pin must be toggled to
turn-on the switch again. The FPF2125 does not turn off in
response to an over current condition but instead re mains
operating in a constant current mode so long as ON is active
and the thermal shutdown or under-voltage lockout have not
activated.
Current Limiting
The current limit ensures that the current through the switch
doesn't exceed a maximum value while not 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 ISET. Information for selecting the resistor is
found in the Application Info section. The FPF2123 and
FPF2124 have a blanking time of 10ms, nominally, during which
the switch will act as a constant current source. At the end of
the blanking time, the switch will be turned-off. The FPF2125
has no current limit blanking period so it will remain in a
constant current state until the ON pin is deactivated or the
thermal shutdown turns-off the switch.
or a junction temperature in
IN
Under-Voltage Lockout
The under-voltage lockout turns-off the switch if the input
voltage drops below the under-voltage lockout threshold. With
the ON pin active, the input voltage rising above the
under-voltage lockout threshold will cause a controlled turn-on
of the switch which limits current over-shoots.
Thermal Shutdown
The thermal shutdown protects the die from internally or
externally generated excessive temperatures. During an
over-temperature condition the switch is turned-off. The switch
automatically turns-on again if the temperature of the die drops
below the threshold temperature.
The FPF2123, FPF2124, and FPF2125 have a current limit
which is set with an external resistor connected between ISET
and GND. This resistor is selected by using the following

determined from the following formula,
During normal operation as a switch, the power dissipated in the
part will depend upon the level at which the current limit is set.

this will result in a typical power dissipation of,

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. When using the
FPF2124, attention must be given to the manual resetting of the
part. Continuously resetting the part when a short on the output
is present will cause the temperature of the part to increase.
The junction temperature will only be able to increase to the
thermal shutdown threshold. Once this temperature has been
reached, toggling ON will not turn-on the switch until the
junction temperature drops. For the FPF2125, a short on the

Board Layout
For best performance, all traces should be as short as possible.
To be most effective, the input and output capacitors should be
placed close to the device to minimize the effects that parasitic
trace inductances may have on normal and short-circuit
operation. Using wide traces for V
minimize parasitic electrical effects along with minimizing the
case to ambient thermal impedance.
