Littelfuse unveils Load Switch ICs Series
Summary
These new Load Switch ICs are ultra-efficient, 2 and 4 A-rated load switches with integrated true reverse current blocking (TRCB) and slew rate control. Their best-in-class efficiency makes them ideal for mobile and wearable consumer electronics. The latest Load Switch ICs are ideal for use in a wide range of electronics designs, including: “The new Load Switch IC Series supports an extended battery lifetime for mobile and wearable products by providing low power consumption and power savings with easy-to-power on/off control,” said Bernie Hsieh, Assistant Product Manager of the Protection Semiconductor Business team at Littelfuse. “Their package’s chip-scale form factor provides space savings while integrating multiple functions, such as slew rate control, true reverse current blocking, and quick output discharging.” The Load Switch ICs offer the following key benefits over previous solutions: • They use a chip-scale package (with WLCSP) to replace discrete circuits with multiple functional integrations such as power MOSFET, reverse diode, discharge MOSFET, passive components, etc. The Load Switch ICs are available in tape and reel format in quantities of 4,000 (LQ05021QCS4, LQ05021RCS4, LQ05022QCS4) or 3,000 (LQ05041QCS6, LQ05041RCS6).
