P-Channel MOSFET With Gate Driver For Load Switch Application
General Description Features
V
This device is designed for configuration as a load
switch and is particularly suited for Power
Management in portable battery powered electronic
equipment. Designed to operate from 2.5V to 8V input
and supply up to 2.9A. The device features a small
N-Channel MOSFET (Q1) together with a large
P-Channel power MOSFET (Q2) in a single

External Component Recommendation
First select R2, 100 - 1kΩ, for Slew Rate control.
C1 ≤ 1000pF can be added in addition to R2 for further In-rush current control.
Then select R1 such that R1/R2 ratio maintains between 10 - 100. R1 is required to turn Q2 off.
