MIC94092YC6-TR: High-Performance 1.5A Load Switch for Power Management
In modern electronic systems, efficient power management is critical for extending battery life, reducing heat generation, and ensuring system reliability. The MIC94092YC6-TR stands out as a high-performance, single-channel load switch designed to meet these demanding requirements. This compact yet robust component integrates key functionalities that simplify power distribution while enhancing protection and control.
Engineered for applications ranging from smartphones and tablets to IoT devices and portable medical equipment, the MIC94092YC6-TR offers a continuous load current capability of up to 1.5A. Its low ON-resistance (Rₒₙ) of just 45mΩ typical minimizes voltage drop and power loss, thereby improving overall efficiency. This feature is particularly crucial in battery-operated devices where every milliwatt saved translates to longer operational time.
The device includes an ultra-fast startup and shutdown mechanism, controlled via a simple logic-compatible enable pin (EN). This allows for precise timing control and rapid power sequencing, which is essential in multi-rail systems where the order of power-up and power-down must be strictly adhered to. The quick-turnoff capability also provides effective inrush current limiting, protecting downstream components from potential damage during hot-swap events or fault conditions.
Comprehensive protection features are integral to the MIC94092YC6-TR. It incorporates reverse current blocking to prevent current from flowing back to the input when the output voltage is higher, a common scenario in multi-voltage systems. Additionally, the switch includes thermal shutdown and over-current protection (OCP), safeguarding both the load and the switch itself from excessive temperatures and short-circuit events.
Housed in a space-saving 1mm x 1mm 6-bump WLP package, the MIC94092YC6-TR is ideal for space-constrained PCB designs. Its minimal external component requirement—often just a single bypass capacitor—further reduces the solution footprint and BOM cost.
ICGOOODFIND: The MIC94092YC6-TR is a highly integrated, efficient, and robust load switch that excels in modern power management applications. Its combination of low Rₒₙ, high current handling, fast switching, and built-in protection makes it an excellent choice for designers aiming to optimize performance, reliability, and battery life in portable and compact electronic systems.
