Description
The ST890 device is a low voltage, P-channel
MOSFET power switch intended for high-side
load switching applications.
The switch operates with inputs from 2.7 V
to 5.5 V, making it ideal for both 3 V and 5 V
systems.
The internal current limiting circuitry protects the
input supply against overload. The thermal
overload protection limits power dissipation and
junction temperatures.
The maximum current limit is 1.2 A. The current
limit through the switch is programmed with
a resistor from SET to ground. The devices are
available in SO-8 and DFN8L (3 x 3 mm)
packages.
