Applications Information
The RT9728A is a single P-MOSFET high side power
switch with active-high/low enable input, optimized for self-
powered and bus-powered Universal Serial Bus (USB)
applications. The switch's low R
DS(ON)
meets USB voltage
drop requirements and a flag output is available to indicate
fault conditions to the local USB controller.
Current Limiting and Short Circuit Protection
When a heavy load or short circuit situation occurs while
the switch is enabled, large transient current may flow
through the device. The RT9728A includes a current-limit
circuitry to prevent these large currents from damaging
the MOSFET switch and the hub downstream ports. The
RT9728A provides an adjustable current limit threshold
between 120mA and 1.3A (typ) via an external resistor,
R
ILIM
, between 19.1kΩ and 232kΩ. However, if the ILIM
pin is connected to V
IN
, the current limit threshold will be
75mA (typ). Once the current limit threshold is exceeded,
