MIC2008YML-TR

Overview

The MIC2008YML-TR is a single-channel, high-side power switch manufactured by Microchip Technology. It utilizes a P-channel MOSFET architecture to manage load power distribution within electronic systems. The device supports an input voltage range of 2.5V to 5.5V and delivers a maximum continuous output current of 2A. Key electrical specifications include a typical on-resistance of 70 milliohms and a non-inverting logic interface for control. Integrated protection mechanisms provide adjustable current limiting and overtemperature shutdown capabilities. The component operates reliably across a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is housed in a compact 6-lead MLF package.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a P-channel MOSFET for efficient high-side power switching with low on-resistance characteristics.
• Provides comprehensive fault protection including adjustable current limiting and thermal shutdown to safeguard connected loads.
• Features a simple non-inverting open/switch interface for straightforward logic control integration.

Applications

• Load switching in portable consumer electronics
• Power distribution units for embedded systems
• Peripheral power management in industrial controllers

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'YML' corresponds to the required 6-MLF surface-mount package configuration. Confirm that the operating environment remains within the specified -40°C to +85°C ambient temperature range to ensure reliable performance. Ensure the control signal polarity matches the non-inverting interface requirement. Validate that the load current does not exceed the 2A maximum rating under all operating conditions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel, high-side switch is required for low-voltage applications up to 5.5V. It is suitable for designs needing integrated thermal and current protection without external discrete components. Consider the 6-MLF package size constraints and the non-inverting control logic compatibility before finalizing the design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MIC20xx family of power switches from Microchip Technology. These devices are designed for general-purpose load switching applications requiring robust protection features. The family offers various channel counts and current ratings, with the MIC2008 representing the single-channel, 2A variant optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts.
