MP62160DS-LF-P

Overview

The MP62160DS-LF-P is a single-channel power distribution switch from Monolithic Power Systems. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V and supports an output current of 2 A with a current limit of 2.8 A. The device features a maximum on-resistance of 120 mOhms, a maximum turn-on time of 3 ms, and a maximum idle time of 10 ms. It functions as an active-low switch and dissipates up to 1.4 W of power. The component is housed in an 8-SOIC package suitable for surface mount installation and operates between -40°C and +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides single-channel power routing with integrated overcurrent protection capabilities
• Features low on-resistance for efficient power delivery in compact packages
• Supports configurable timing parameters for controlled load switching

Applications

• Power distribution networks requiring single-channel load switching
• Systems needing overcurrent protection for peripheral loads
• Embedded electronics utilizing 3.3V or 5V power rails

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation carefully during procurement. The LF-Z variant is explicitly marked as Not Recommended for New Designs (NRND). Ensure the selected part number matches the required lifecycle status and packaging configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance details directly with the manufacturer documentation before finalizing orders to avoid compatibility issues with existing designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel solution with 2A continuous current capability is required. The 120 mOhm on-resistance makes it suitable for applications prioritizing efficiency in low-voltage environments. Consider the SOIC-8 footprint constraints and the active-low control logic requirements. Evaluate thermal dissipation needs given the 1.4W power rating under full load conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MP62160 series of power distribution switches designed by Monolithic Power Systems. These devices are engineered to manage power routing while preventing damage from overcurrent events. The series offers various package options and channel configurations to suit different system integration needs.

Replacement Considerations

Public sources indicate that the MP62160DS-LF-Z is Not Recommended for New Designs. Potential substitutes mentioned include MP5073 and MP5075 models. Verify electrical compatibility and pinout alignment before substitution.
