Load switch has selectable current limit

The SiP4613A/B current limit protection load switches can operate under a supply voltage range of 2.4 to 5.5 V and handle a continuous output current of 1 A. They are designed for applications including load switching, battery switching, USB peripheral ports, hot-swapping, and other power management applications.

In shutdown mode the switches reduce the supply current to less than 1 µA, and are also protected by undervoltage lockout and thermal shutdown features. The over-temperature protection circuit prevents thermal runaway by turning off the power switch when the junction temperature reaches 165°C, and remains off until it drops below 145°C.
