MIC2076A-2YM

Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers Overview

The MIC2076A-2YM is a dual-channel high-side power distribution switch optimized for USB applications. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V and features an 8-pin SOIC package. The device provides two outputs with a maximum output current of 500 mA and a fixed current limit of 900 mA. Key electrical parameters include a maximum on-resistance of 140 mΩ, a maximum turn-on time of 5 ms, and a maximum idle time of 100 µs. It supports operation across a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers Feature Summary

• Smart shutdown capability that reduces current consumption during fault modes
• Internal current limiting with thermal shutdown protection for device and load safety
• Soft-start circuitry minimizes inrush current for highly capacitive loads
• Fault status output flag asserts during overcurrent or thermal shutdown conditions

Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers Applications

• USB port power distribution
• General-purpose power distribution requiring circuit protection
• Systems requiring smart shutdown functionality

Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'YM' corresponds to the 8-pin SOIC package variant when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status as indicated in official documentation. Ensure the reel quantity matches procurement requirements if ordering the tape-and-reel version (MIC2076A-2YM-TR). Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with Microchip Technology's official database to confirm current production status and availability.

Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring dual-channel high-side switching with integrated protection. The MIC2076A-2YM is suitable where smart shutdown and reduced standby current are critical compared to the standard MIC2026A series. Consider the 140 mΩ on-resistance and 900 mA current limit against load requirements. The 8-pin SOIC package facilitates surface-mount assembly in space-constrained designs.

Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers Part Context

The MIC2076A-2YM belongs to the MIC2026A/MIC2076A family of dual-channel power distribution switches manufactured by Microchip Technology. This family is designed for general-purpose power distribution with enhanced protection features. The MIC2076A variant specifically adds smart shutdown capabilities not present in the MIC2026A counterpart, making it distinct within the product line for low-power fault management.

Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers Replacement Considerations

The MIC2026A-2YM is a related variant within the same family but lacks the smart shutdown feature found in the MIC2076A-2YM. Verify functional equivalence regarding shutdown behavior before substitution. No other direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed in the provided documentation.
