LM3544
Quad Port USB Power Distribution Switch and
Over-Current Protection
General Description
The LM3544 is a quad high-side power switch that is an excellent choice for use in Root, Self-Powered and Bus-Powered USB (Universal Serial Bus) Hubs. Independent port enables, flag signals to alert USB controllers of error conditions, controlled start-up in hot-plug events, and short circuit protection all satisfy USB requirements.
The LM3544 accepts input voltages between 2.7V and 5.5V. The Enable logic inputs, available in active-high and active-low versions, can be powered off any voltage in the 2.7V to 5.5V range. The LM3544 limits the continuous current through a single port to 1.25A (max.) when it is shorted to ground.
The low on-state resistance of the LM3544 switches ensures the LM3544 will satisfy USB voltage drop requirements, even when current through a switch reaches 500 mA. Thus, High-Powered USB Functions, Low-Powered USB functions, and Bus-Powered USB Hubs can all be powered off a Root or Self-Powered USB Hub containing the LM3544.
Added features of the LM3544 include current foldback to reduce power consumption in current overload conditions, thermal shutdown to prevent device failure caused by high-current overheating, and undervoltage lockout to keep switches from operating if the input voltage is below acceptable levels.

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 allowable power dissipation is a function of the Maximum Junction Temperature (TJMAX), Junction to Ambient Thermal Resistance (θJA), and
the Ambient Temperature (TA). The LM3544 in the 16-pin SOIC package has a TJMAX of 150ÊC and a θJA of 130ÊC/W. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any temperature is PMAX = (TJMAX − T A)/θJA. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will cause excessive die temperature, and the part will go into thermal shutdown.
Note 3: The Human body model is a 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5 kΩ resistor into each pin.
Note 4: Thermal Shutdown will protect the device from permanent damage.
