MIC2076

The MIC2026 and MIC2076 are high-side MOSFET switches optimized for general-purpose power distribution requiring circuit protection. The MIC2026/76 are internally current limited and have thermal shutdown that protects the device and load. The MIC2076 offers "smart" thermal shutdown that reduces current consumption in fault modes. When a thermal shutdown fault occurs, the output is latched off until the faulty load is removed. Removing the load or toggling the enable input will reset the device output. Both devices employ soft-start circuitry that minimizes inrush current in applications where highly capacitive loads are employed. A fault status output flag is asserted during overcurrent and thermal shutdown conditions. Transient faults are internally filtered. The MIC2026/76 are available in 8-pin DIP or 8-pin SOIC.
