MIC2006-1.2YM6

Overview

The MIC2006-1.2YM6 is a single-channel high-side power distribution switch manufactured by Microchip Technology. It utilizes a P-channel MOSFET element to manage load connections within electronic circuits. The device operates with an input voltage range of 2.5V to 5.5V and supports a maximum output current of 1.2A. It is housed in a compact SOT-23-6 surface-mount package, designed for efficient space-constrained applications requiring reliable power switching capabilities.

Feature Summary

• Integrates fixed current limiting protection to safeguard loads against overcurrent conditions
• Includes thermal shutdown circuitry to prevent damage during overheating events
• Features undervoltage lockout (UVLO) to ensure stable operation within specified voltage ranges

Applications

• USB power distribution systems
• Peripheral device hot-swapping interfaces
• Battery-powered equipment load management

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm active logic state, as the base part number may correspond to either Active High or Active Low configurations depending on the full order code. Ensure the selected variant matches the control signal requirements of the host system. Confirm RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the final assembly process.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel high-side switch with integrated protection is required for low-voltage applications. The 1.2A current rating and 5.5V maximum input limit define the operational boundaries. Consider the SOT-23-6 package size for board space constraints. Verify that the interface type aligns with the control logic levels available in the design.

Part Context

This component belongs to the MIC2006 series of fixed and adjustable current-limiting power distribution switches. The series provides solutions for protecting downstream loads in portable and industrial electronics. The specific model integrates standard protection features into a small footprint, serving as a critical interface between power sources and sensitive peripheral devices.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not provided in the source documentation. Cross-referencing requires matching electrical specifications such as voltage range, current limit, and package type. Consult manufacturer compatibility lists for verified alternatives.
