MIC2005-0.5YM6

Overview

The MIC2005-0.5YM6 is a single-channel, high-side power distribution switch manufactured by Microchip Technology. It utilizes a P-channel MOSFET output configured for load voltages ranging from 2.5V to 5.5V. The device provides fixed current limiting protection set at 0.5A and includes an overtemperature shutdown feature. It operates with a non-inverting interface and features a typical on-resistance of 170 milliohms. The component is housed in a surface-mount SOT-23-6 package and supports an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates fixed current limiting and thermal protection for robust load management
• Features a high-side P-channel configuration for direct digital control
• Includes status flag output for fault indication

Applications

• Digital television (DTV) systems
• Set-top boxes (STB)
• Peripheral load switching in PC applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TR' indicates tape-and-reel packaging if reel supply is required. Confirm that the base part number MIC2005-0.5YM6 may be listed as obsolete while the TR variant remains active. Ensure the selected revision matches the required RoHS compliance standards for your manufacturing process.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel high-side switch with precise 0.5A current limit is required. It is suitable for low-voltage logic-controlled loads where thermal protection is critical. Compare against adjustable current limit variants if programmable thresholds are needed instead of fixed limits.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MIC20XX family of power distribution switches designed for consumer electronics. The series offers various current limit options and package types to suit different power requirements. The MIC2005 specifically targets applications requiring simple on/off control with integrated safety features.
