MP5010
5V, 1A- 5A Programmable Current Limit Switch
DESCRIPTION
The MP5010 is a protection device designed to protect circuitry on the output (source) from transients on input (VCC). It also protects VCC from undesired shorts and transients ing from the source.
At start up, inrush current is limited by limiting the slew rate at the source. The slew rate is controlled by a small capacitor at the dv/dt pin. The dv/dt pin has an internal circuit that allows the customer to float this pin (no connect) and still receive 1.1ms ramp time at the source.
The max load at the output (source) is current limited. This is acplished by utilizing a sense FET...
