Product details
Overview
AOZ1321DI-03 from Alpha & Omega Semiconductor is a single-channel high-side power-distribution switch featuring a 70 mΩ N-channel MOSFET, 1.5 A continuous current rating, 2.7 V to 5.5 V input voltage range, active-high enable logic, and integrated thermal shutdown - designed for USB port power control in notebook and desktop computers.
For engineers reviewing the AOZ1321DI-03 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this device delivers controlled inrush current management, reverse current blocking, open-drain fault flag with 4–15 ms deglitching, and charge-pump gate drive enabling low-voltage operation down to 2.7 V without external components.
Technical Context
The AOZ1321DI-03 implements a high-side N-channel MOSFET switch with internal charge-pump gate driver that sustains full RDS(ON) performance across 2.7–5.5 V input range. Its proprietary rise/fall time control limits inrush current during hot-plug events into heavy capacitive loads.
Overcurrent protection triggers at 1.6–2.7 A (typ. 2.0 A), asserting an open-drain OC pin with 4–15 ms deglitching; thermal shutdown activates at 135 °C with 30 °C hysteresis and automatic recovery at 105 °C. UVLO disables operation below 2.12–2.22 V input.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| RDS(ON) | 70 mΩ typical at 5.5 V - enables low conduction loss and <100 mW dissipation at 1.5 A load. |
| Continuous Current | 1.5 A maximum - supports USB 2.0/3.0 downstream port power delivery with margin. |
| VIN Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - compatible with wide-input systems including battery-backed and 3.3 V/5 V rail designs. |
| Enable Logic | Active-high - simplifies interface with standard GPIOs without level-shifting or inversion. |
| Fault Flag | Open-drain OC output with 4–15 ms deglitch - prevents false triggering from transient overloads. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 135 °C trip / 105 °C recovery - provides self-protecting operation under sustained short-circuit conditions. |
| Reverse Blocking | Yes - prevents backfeed from OUT to IN, critical for isolated USB power domains. |
Pinout & Package
eMSOP-8 package with exposed pad (EPAD) for enhanced thermal performance; 2 mm × 3 mm footprint, 0.65 mm pitch, JEDEC MSOP-8 compliant outline.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for power switch, charge pump, and logic; must connect to thermal pad for optimal heat dissipation. |
| IN | Input voltage supply | High-side power source input (2.7–5.5 V); connects to upstream DC rail before switching point. |
| EN | Enable control | Active-high digital input; drives internal logic and gate driver; TTL/CMOS compatible (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2.0 V). |
| OC | Overcurrent flag | Open-drain output asserted low during overcurrent or thermal fault; requires external pull-up resistor. |
| OUT | Switched output | Power-switch output node; delivers controlled current to downstream USB load or peripheral. |
| NC | No connection | Pin 8 is unconnected internally; must remain floating or grounded per layout guidelines - no electrical function. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated charge pump | Enables full gate drive above source voltage down to 2.7 V input - eliminates need for external boost circuitry. |
| Controlled rise/fall time | 0.4–1.5 ms turn-on / 0.05–0.5 ms turn-off - suppresses inrush current spikes into >100 μF capacitive loads. |
| Reverse current blocking | Prevents backflow from OUT to IN when disabled - ensures isolation between powered and unpowered domains. |
| UVLO with hysteresis | 2.12–2.22 V threshold with 200 mV hysteresis - avoids oscillation near brown-out conditions. |
| Low quiescent current | ≤1 μA when disabled - minimizes standby power in always-on USB controller subsystems. |
Applications
| USB Port Power Switching | Notebook System Power Management |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Hot-plug insertion of USB peripherals into laptop ports with large downstream capacitance. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side power switch controlling VBUS delivery with inrush limiting and fault reporting.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side load switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPL7407LDR | 7-channel low-side Darlington array; 500 mA per channel; no integrated OC flag or thermal shutdown. | Requires external current sensing and logic for fault handling; suited for LED/relay drivers, not USB power control. | Select only if multi-channel low-side drive is needed and fault autonomy is managed externally. |
| TPS22965DSGR | Single-channel 2 A load switch; 44 mΩ RDS(ON); active-high EN; includes quick-output-discharge (QOD) but no OC pin. | Lacks open-drain fault reporting - cannot directly replace AOZ1321DI-03 where OC status is monitored by host controller. | Choose when lower on-resistance and QOD are prioritized over fault visibility; requires firmware-level fault detection. |
Compared with TPL7407LDR and TPS22965DSGR, the AOZ1321DI-03 uniquely integrates overcurrent flag reporting, thermal shutdown with auto-recovery, and reverse blocking - making it suitable for autonomous USB port protection without host-level supervision.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous current rating for the AOZ1321DI-03?
The AOZ1321DI-03 is rated for 1.5 A maximum continuous current at ambient temperatures up to +85 °C. This rating assumes proper PCB thermal design using the eMSOP-8 EPAD package and adequate copper area for heat dissipation. At higher junction temperatures, derating applies per the thermal resistance specification (ΘJA = 60 °C/W).
Does the AOZ1321DI-03 provide reverse current blocking?
Yes, the AOZ1321DI-03 provides reverse current blocking - it prevents current flow from the OUT pin back to the IN pin when the device is disabled or during fault conditions. This feature is inherent to its high-side N-channel MOSFET architecture with integrated gate control and is confirmed in the datasheet's "Detailed Description" section.
What is the purpose of the OC pin on the AOZ1321DI-03?
The OC (Overcurrent) pin on the AOZ1321DI-03 is an open-drain output that asserts low during overcurrent or thermal shutdown events. It includes a 4–15 ms deglitch circuit to reject transient faults. The AOZ1321DI-03 uses this pin to signal fault conditions to the host controller without requiring additional monitoring circuitry.
Can the AOZ1321DI-03 operate from a 3.3 V supply?
Yes, the AOZ1321DI-03 operates across a 2.7 V to 5.5 V input range, fully supporting 3.3 V rail applications. Its internal charge pump maintains sufficient gate drive voltage even at 2.7 V, ensuring consistent RDS(ON) performance and reliable switching behavior without external boost components.
Is the AOZ1321DI-03 RoHS compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, the AOZ1321DI-03 is an AOS Green Product - it meets RoHS compliance requirements and uses reduced levels of halogens. This information is explicitly stated in the "Ordering Information" section of the official datasheet and verified through AOS's quality documentation portal.
