MIC2025-2YM-TR

Overview

The MIC2025-2YM-TR is a high-side power switch IC manufactured by Microchip Technology, housed in an 8-pin SOIC package. It supports an input voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V and delivers a maximum output current of 500mA. The device features a typical on-resistance (RdsOn) of 90mΩ. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and includes integrated fault protection mechanisms such as fixed current limiting, thermal shutdown, and under-voltage lockout (UVLO).

Feature Summary

• Integrates controlled slew rate functionality to minimize inrush current during load connection.
• Provides status flag output for monitoring switch state and fault conditions.
• Includes comprehensive protection against over-current, over-temperature, and under-voltage lockout.

Applications

• Hot-swap applications requiring controlled power-up sequencing.
• Peripheral power distribution in USB-enabled systems.
• Load switching for battery-powered portable devices.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'YM' corresponds to the 8-SOIC package variant when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status with the supplier, as manufacturing changes may affect environmental declarations. Ensure the ordering quantity matches the required tape-and-reel specifications for automated assembly processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component for single-channel high-side switching applications requiring low on-resistance and compact surface-mount packaging. Consider the MIC2025-2YMM-TR if an MSOP package is preferred for space-constrained designs. Evaluate the higher current capabilities of the MIC2505 series if loads exceed 500mA requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MM8™ series of power switches from Microchip Technology, formerly Micrel. The MIC2025 family is designed for general-purpose load switching, offering a balance of performance and protection in small packages suitable for consumer electronics and industrial control systems.

Replacement Considerations

MIC2025-2YMM-TR offers identical electrical characteristics in an 8-MSOP package for footprint flexibility.

FAQ

Does the MIC2025-2YM-TR require an external supply voltage?

No, the device does not require a separate Vcc supply; it is powered directly through the input terminal.

What is the function of the status flag pin?

The status flag provides a digital indication of the switch's operational state, allowing the system to monitor for faults or active conduction.
