LM3526 Dual Port USB Power Switch and Over-Current Protection
March 2005
General Description
The LM3526 provides Universal Serial Bus standard power
switch and over-current protection for all host port applications. The dual port device is ideal for Notebook and desktop
PC’s that supply power to more than one port.
A 1 ms delay on the fault flag output prevents erroneous
overcurrent reporting caused by in-rush currents during hotplug events.
The dual stage thermal protection circuit in the LM3526
provides individual protection to each switch and the entire
device. In a short-circuit/over-current event, the switch dissipating excessive heat is turned off, allowing the second
switch to continue to function uninterrupted.
The LM3526 accepts an input voltage between 2.7V and
5.5V allowing use as a device-based in-rush current limiter
for 3.3V USB peripherals, as well as Root and Self-Powered
Hubs at 5.5V. The Enable inputs accept both 3.3V and 5.0V
logic thresholds.
The small size, low R
LM3526 a good choice for root hubs as well as per-port
power control in embedded and stand-alone hubs.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Electrical specifications do not apply when operating the device
beyond its rated operating conditions.
Note 2: The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by T
ambient thermal resistance), and T
number given in the Absolute Maximum Ratings, which ever is lower. θ
Note 3: The human body model is a 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5 kΩ resistor into each pin. Enable pin ESD threshold is 1.7kV.
Note 4: Thermal Shutdown will protect the device from permanent damage.
Note 5: For LM3526-L, OFF is EN ≥ 2.4V and ON is EN ≤ 0.8V. For LM3526-H, OFF is EN ≤ 0.8V and ON is EN ≥ 2.4V.
