Product details
Overview
AOZ1356DI-05 from Alpha and Omega Semiconductor is a 5V/3.5A ECPower™ protection switch with True Reverse-Current Blocking (TRCB), programmable current limit (3.6V–5.3V input range), and USB PD Fast Role Swap support. It delivers over-voltage, over-current, thermal, and short-circuit protection in portable power delivery systems such as USB-C power source switches for notebooks and smartphones.
For engineers reviewing the AOZ1356DI-05 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified specifications including auto-restart fault recovery, 39mΩ RON, 28V VOUT rating, 125µA quiescent current, and DFN3x3-12L package details - all confirmed for AOZ1356DI-05 specifically.
Technical Context
The AOZ1356DI-05 integrates a low-RON MOSFET power switch with precision current-limit control via external RLIM resistor, UVLO (3.2–3.55V rising threshold), and OVP (5.75–5.9V VIN threshold). Its TRCB circuit triggers at +25mV (VOUT–VVIN) and recovers at –40mV with 65mV hysteresis and 600ns response time.
It supports two operational modes: normal turn-on (tON = 2.7ms) and Fast-On mode (tFON = 50–100µs) activated by FON high, enabling <80µs VOUT recovery for USB PD Fast Role Swap. Fault reporting uses open-drain FLTB with 12ms OCP delay and immediate TSD assertion.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.6V to 5.3V - defines minimum adapter compatibility and ensures stable operation across USB PD 5V profiles. |
| Max Output Current | 3.5A - maximum continuous load current before foldback or shutdown, set via external RLIM resistor. |
| RON | 39mΩ typical - determines conduction loss (PLOSS = I² × 0.039Ω) and thermal rise under full load. |
| VOUT Absolute Max Rating | 28V - enables safe handling of transient surges or reverse-bias conditions on output side. |
| Quiescent Current | 125µA - enables ultra-low standby power in always-on USB-C port controllers. |
| UVLO Threshold | 3.45V typical (rising), 150mV hysteresis - prevents erratic switching during brown-out or weak-source conditions. |
| OVP Threshold | 5.9V typical (VIN), 5.5V (VOUT) - protects downstream 5V logic and capacitors from overvoltage damage. |
| TRCB Response Time | 600ns - blocks reverse current fast enough to prevent backfeed into host supplies during hot-plug events. |
Pinout & Package
AOZ1356DI-05 is housed in a 3mm × 3mm DFN-12L package with exposed thermal pad (EXP) requiring PCB ground connection via multiple vias. Pin 1–3 (VOUT), Pin 10–12 (VIN), and Pin 7 (GND) are internally paralleled for low-impedance power routing and thermal dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VOUT (Pins 1,2,3) | Power output terminal | Delivers regulated 5V to load; rated for 28V absolute max; internally connected for current sharing and low-inductance path. |
| FLTB (Pin 4) | Fault indicator output | Open-drain signal pulled low after 12ms OCP or immediately on TSD; requires external 5V pull-up for host MCU monitoring. |
| NC (Pin 5) | No-connect terminal | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to GND - no electrical function or routing impact. |
| FON (Pin 6) | Fast-On enable input | Active-high control (1.4V threshold); asserts before EN to reduce tFON to ≤100µs for USB PD FRS compliance. |
| GND (Pin 7) | Ground reference | Primary return path for control logic and power switch; connects directly to EXP thermal pad for thermal management. |
| ILIM (Pin 8) | Current limit set node | Analog input sensing voltage across RLIM; sets ILIM from 0.5A to 4.0A using 1% resistor per Table 1. |
| EN (Pin 9) | Enable control input | Active-high logic interface (1.4V threshold); internal pull-down ensures default-off state; toggling restarts auto-restart faults. |
| VIN (Pins 10,11,12) | Supply input terminal | Accepts 3.6–5.3V input; powers internal regulator and gate driver; internally paralleled for low-impedance supply path. |
| EXP | Exposed thermal pad | Must be soldered to multi-layer PCB ground plane with ≥6 vias; primary heat dissipation path for 3.5A operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| USB PD Fast Role Swap (FRS) support | Enables role reversal from sink to source with VOUT recovery to >4.75V in ≤80µs when FON = 5V. |
| True Reverse-Current Blocking (TRCB) | Prevents backfeed from VOUT to VVIN in both enabled and disabled states, with 25mV trip and 40mV release thresholds. |
| Programmable current limit | Set from 0.5A to 4.0A using single 1% resistor (RLIM); foldback reduces current by 8% during sustained overload. |
| Auto-restart fault recovery | Resumes operation 24ms after OVP or thermal fault removal; immediate recovery post-TRCB event. |
| Low-quiescent-power shutdown | Draws only 6µA when EN = 0V and FON = 0V - critical for battery-backed USB-C port controllers. |
| Robust system-level protection | Integrates OVP (5.9V), UVLO (3.45V), SCP (270mV detection), TSD (140°C), and ±4kV HBM ESD on all pins. |
Applications
| USB PD Power Source Switch | Smartphone/Tablet Charging Port |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar protection switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS25750RWER | Integrated USB PD controller + power switch; supports PD3.1 up to 28V; requires external MCU for policy engine. | Targeted at full-featured PD sink/source ports with variable voltage negotiation; not a standalone switch. | Select if USB PD 3.1 programmable power supply (PPS) and dual-role port (DRP) functionality are required beyond basic 5V switching. |
| RT9759GQW | 5V/3A switch with 45mΩ RON, 3.3–5.5V input, no TRCB, latch-off only, no FRS support. | Lacks Fast Role Swap timing and true reverse-current blocking; suitable for fixed-role, non-USB-C applications. | Select for cost-sensitive, single-role 5V power distribution where FRS and TRCB are unnecessary. |
Compared with TPS25750RWER and RT9759GQW, AOZ1356DI-05 delivers optimized 5V-only FRS performance with minimal BOM count (no MCU or PD controller needed), lower RON, and guaranteed TRCB - making it ideal for compact, high-efficiency USB-C source switches where timing and reverse isolation are critical.

FAQ
What is the input voltage range specified for AOZ1356DI-05?
The AOZ1356DI-05 has a confirmed input operating voltage range of 3.6V to 5.3V, as documented in the Rev. 2.3 datasheet's Ordering Information table and Electrical Characteristics section. This range is distinct from AOZ1356DI-01/-02 (3.4V–5.5V) and ensures compatibility with tightly regulated 5V USB PD sources while maintaining UVLO margin.
Does AOZ1356DI-05 support USB PD Fast Role Swap, and how is it implemented?
Yes, AOZ1356DI-05 supports USB PD Fast Role Swap (FRS) through its dedicated FON pin. When FON is driven high before EN activation, the device achieves ≤100µs fast turn-on time (tFON) and ≤80µs VOUT recovery to >4.75V - meeting USB PD Rev 3.0 FRS timing requirements. This capability is explicitly validated for AOZ1356DI-05 in the Functional Description and Timing Diagrams sections.
What fault recovery behavior does AOZ1356DI-05 exhibit?
AOZ1356DI-05 implements auto-restart fault recovery. After over-voltage or thermal shutdown faults are removed, it automatically attempts restart after 24ms. For True Reverse-Current Blocking events, recovery is immediate upon condition removal. This behavior is confirmed in the datasheet's Ordering Information table and Functional Description section, distinguishing it from latch-off variants like AOZ1356DI-06.
How is current limit programmed on AOZ1356DI-05?
Current limit on AOZ1356DI-05 is set via an external 1% resistor (RLIM) connected between ILIM pin and GND. The datasheet provides Table 1 correlating RLIM values (e.g., 14.3kΩ for 1.0A, 4.02kΩ for 3.5A) and confirms programmability across 0.5A–4.0A. The ILIM pin senses voltage across RLIM to determine the threshold, with 8% foldback applied during sustained overload.
What package type and thermal considerations apply to AOZ1356DI-05?
AOZ1356DI-05 uses the DFN3x3-12L package with an exposed thermal pad (EXP). Per datasheet Layout Guidelines, EXP must be soldered to a multi-layer PCB ground plane using ≥6 thermal vias, and top/bottom copper planes should be maximized to achieve θJA = 50°C/W. This thermal design is essential to sustain 3.5A continuous current without exceeding 140°C junction temperature.
