Applications

DESCRIPTION

The LM3525 provides Universal Serial Bus standard

power switch and over-current protection for all host

port applications. The single port device is ideal for

Notebook PC and Handheld PC applications that

supply power to one port.

A 1 ms delay on fault flag output prevents erroneous

overcurrent reporting caused by inrush currents

during the hot-plug events.

The LM3525 accepts an input voltage between 2.7V

and 5.5V allowing use as a device-based inrush

current limiter for 3.3V USB peripherals, as well as

Root and Self-Powered Hubs at 5.5V. The Enable

input accepts both 3.3V and 5.0V logic thresholds.

The small size, low RON, and 1 ms fault flag delay

make the LM3525 a good choice for root hubs as well

as ganged power control in space-critical self?

powered hubs.
