AAT4616A Functional Block Diagram Functional Description typically occurs during device turn-on, but may also occur during a port hot plug-in event. The AAT4616A is ideally suited The AAT4616A is a single channel current limiting load switch for protection of peripheral ports such as USB, RS232, and that is intended to protect against short circuit and over-current parallel ports. events by current limiting to a preset level. This device also provides a reverse current blocking feature, on/off enable Reverse Current Blocking control, and a fault flag to notify a system controller of an over- current, short circuit or over-temperature event. The reverse current blocking feature prevents current flowing from OUT to IN when the device is disabled. When the device is In the event of a load current that exceeds a user-programmed enabled, the electrical characteristics between IN and OUT are current limit level (ILIM), a high speed current limit loop limits still similar to an ideal switch, and current can flow in either the current in a microsecond and resets to low impedance once direction. the short circuit condition is removed. The AAT4616A is internally protected from thermal damage by an over-temperature detection circuit. If the die temperature Application Information reaches the internal thermal limit, the power device is switched Setting Current Limit off until the die temperature cools to a level below the thermal The AAT4616A current limit can be set by an external resistor limit threshold. This device may operate in a thermal cycling (RSET) connected from the SET pin to GND. RSET can be state indefinitely or until the over-current condition is removed. calculated by the following equation: The AAT4616A operates with input voltages ranging from 2.4 V to 5.5 V which, along with its extremely low operating current, make it ideal for battery-powered applications. In cases where the input voltage drops to below 2.4 V, the AAT4616A MOSFET where ILIM is in mA and RSET in kΩ. is protected from entering the saturated region of operation by Table 5 summarizes resistor values for current limit settings. being automatically shut down by the UVLO circuit.

Recommended 1% Tolerance Metal Film Resistors RSET Output Capacitor for Current Limit To ensure stability while the current limit is active, a low RSET (kΩ) Current Limit (mA) capacitance (approximately 0.47 µF) is required. No matter how 86.6 300 large the output capacitor, the output current is limited to the value set by the AAT4616A current limiting circuitry, so very 51 500 large output capacitors can be used. 34.8 750 For example, USB ports are specified to have at least 120 µF of 26.1 1000 capacitance downstream from their controlling power switch. 21.5 1200 The current limiting circuit allows an output capacitance of 18.2 1400 1000 µF or more without disturbing the upstream power supply. 16.5 1600 ON/ON (Enable Input) In many systems, power planes are controlled by integrated circuits that run at lower voltages than the power planes, themselves. The enable input (ON/ON) of the AAT4616A has low and high threshold voltages that accommodate this condition. The threshold voltages are compatible with 5 V TTL and 2.5 V ∼ 5 V CMOS systems. Both active high and active low options are available. Connecting to Capacitive Load When the AAT4616A is switched onto a capacitive load, the device charges the output capacitive load at a rate no greater than the current limit setting. Figure 16.

If current limit or over-temperature circuits in any transients generated by the load attached to the AAT4616A. combination are active for more than approximately 4 ms, the When a short circuit is suddenly applied to the output of the FAULT Flag is pulled to ground through an approximately 100 Ω AAT4616A, a large current, limited only by the RDS(ON) of the resistor. MOSFET, flows for less than 1 µs before the current limit circuitry activates. In this event, a moderately sized CIN The filtering of voltage or current transients of less than 4 ms dramatically reduces the voltage transient seen by the power prevents capacitive loads connected to the AAT4616A output supply and by other circuitry upstream from the AAT4616A. from activating the FAULT Flag when they are initially attached. Pull-up resistances of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ are recommended. The extremely fast short-circuit response time of the AAT4616A Since FLT is an open-drain terminal; it may be pulled up to any reduces the size requirement for CIN. CIN should be located as unrelated voltage less than the maximum operating voltage of close to the device VIN pin as practically possible. Ceramic, 5.5 V, allowing for level shifting between circuits. tantalum, or aluminum electrolytic capacitors are appropriate for CIN. There is no specific capacitor Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) requirement for CIN. For higher current operation, ceramic capacitors are recommended for CIN due to their inherent capability over tantalum capacitors to withstand input current surges from low impedance sources such as batteries in portable devices.
