CAT6500HVA-T2

Overview

The CAT6500HVA-T2 is a Power Selector Switch manufactured by onsemi. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.6V to 7.7V and supports a maximum output current of 3.3A. The device features an operating temperature range from -40°C to 85°C. It is housed in a 32-WFQFN Exposed Pad surface-mount package. This component functions as an OR controller for power source selection.

Feature Summary

• Functions as a power selector switch for managing multiple power sources
• Designed for handheld and mobile device applications
• Operates with low quiescent current consumption

Applications

• Handheld devices
• Mobile devices
• Power management systems requiring source selection

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T2' against official onsemi documentation to confirm tape and reel packaging requirements. Confirm that the component status is acceptable for your design, as some listings indicate this part may be discontinued or obsolete. Ensure the 32-WFQFN package dimensions match your PCB footprint specifications before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing portable electronics requiring seamless switching between power sources such as batteries and adapters. The 1.6V minimum supply voltage makes it suitable for low-voltage battery-powered systems. Consider the 32-WFQFN package size constraints and thermal dissipation capabilities relative to the 3.3A output capability during system integration.

Part Context

This part belongs to the CAT6500 series of power selector switches from onsemi (formerly Fairchild Semiconductor). These components are designed to manage power input from multiple sources, ensuring continuous operation in mobile and handheld applications. The series typically includes variants with different current ratings and package options.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-to-pin replacements within the CAT6500 family or other onsemi power selector switches. Verify compatibility with existing control logic and voltage levels. Consult onsemi for current alternative recommendations if this specific variant is discontinued.
