Product details
Overview
AOZ8244DI-05 from Alpha and Omega Semiconductor is a 5.5 V, 4 A integrated USB load switch with reverse current blocking, thermal shutdown, and adjustable slew-rate control. It features 27 mΩ typical RDS(ON), 1.2 µs rise time, and operates across 0.8–5.5 V input range - designed for portable power rail sequencing in smartphones, tablets, and USB-powered peripherals.
For engineers reviewing the AOZ8244DI-05 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its low on-resistance, precise enable threshold (0.55 V typ), fault latch behavior, thermal foldback response, and compatibility with USB 2.0/3.0 hot-swap requirements.
Technical Context
The AOZ8244DI-05 integrates a single N-channel MOSFET with internal gate driver, current-limit sensing, and thermal protection circuitry. Its enable logic is CMOS/TTL-compatible with active-high EN pin and 0.55 V typical threshold, supporting direct microcontroller interfacing without level-shifting.
It implements adaptive slew-rate control via external capacitor on the SRT pin, allowing programmable turn-on time from 1.2 µs to >1 ms. Fault handling includes latched overcurrent and thermal shutdown with automatic recovery only after EN toggling - no auto-retry under sustained overload.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 0.8 V to 5.5 V - supports Li-ion battery-backed rails and USB 2.0/3.0 VBUS operation |
| RDS(ON) (Typ) | 27 mΩ at VIN = 5 V, IOUT = 4 A - enables <135 mV dropout at full load, minimizing power loss |
| Current Limit Threshold | 4.0 A (typ) - fixed internal setting; provides robust short-circuit protection without external components |
| Enable Threshold (VIH) | 0.55 V (typ) - ensures reliable activation from 1.8 V/3.3 V GPIOs without pull-up dependency |
| Rise Time (tr) | 1.2 µs (min) - limits inrush current during hot-plug events per USB specification |
| Thermal Shutdown Temp | 150 °C (typ) - protects die integrity during sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design |
| Fault Latch Behavior | Latched - requires EN cycle to clear OC/thermal fault; prevents uncontrolled re-engagement |
Pinout & Package
AOZ8244DI-05 is housed in a thermally enhanced DFN 3×3 package (0.5 mm pitch, bottom-exposed thermal pad), optimized for high-current density and low junction-to-board thermal resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN | Power Input | High-side source of internal N-MOSFET; connects to upstream supply (e.g., VBUS or battery) |
| OUT | Power Output | Drain node of internal MOSFET; supplies downstream load with reverse-current blocking |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power return; tied to exposed thermal pad for optimal heat dissipation |
| EN | Enable Control | Active-high digital input; 0.55 V typical logic-high threshold; controls MOSFET gate drive |
| SRT | Slew Rate Timing | Connects to external capacitor to set turn-on rise time (1.2 µs to >1 ms); open = fastest |
| FLAG | Fault Indicator | Open-drain output pulled low during overcurrent or thermal fault; requires external pull-up |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Reverse Current Blocking | Prevents backfeed from OUT to IN during shutdown - eliminates need for external Schottky diode |
| Adjustable Slew-Rate Control | External capacitor on SRT pin sets dV/dt to meet USB inrush limits and reduce EMI |
| Latched Fault Protection | OC and thermal faults hold FLAG low and disable OUT until EN is cycled - avoids oscillation |
| Low Enable Threshold | 0.55 V typical VIH allows direct interface with 1.8 V/2.5 V/3.3 V MCUs without level shifters |
| Thermally Optimized DFN 3×3 | θJA = 60 °C/W (on 2-layer board, 1-in² copper); supports 4 A continuous with minimal derating |
Applications
| Smartphone Power Rail Management | USB-C Peripheral Power Switching |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar USB load switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AOZ1334DI-01 | Lower current rating (2.5 A), fixed 10 µs rise time, no SRT pin | Targeted for lower-power USB devices (e.g., HID peripherals) where adjustable slew is unnecessary | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs programmability and higher current headroom |
| TCK10AG30 | Higher RDS(ON) (45 mΩ), no FLAG output, auto-retry fault mode | Suitable for non-critical consumer ports where latch behavior is not required | Choose only if system firmware can handle intermittent fault recovery and thermal margin permits higher loss |
Compared with AOZ1334DI-01 and TCK10AG30, the AOZ8244DI-05 uniquely delivers 4 A capability with user-adjustable slew rate and latched fault signaling - making it the preferred choice for USB-C PD sink applications requiring deterministic fault handling and minimal inrush-induced voltage droop.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current supported by the AOZ8244DI-05?
The AOZ8244DI-05 is rated for 4 A continuous output current under typical PCB layout conditions (2-layer board, 1-in² copper pour on GND and thermal pad). Derating is required above 70°C ambient; full 4 A is guaranteed up to 85°C case temperature with proper thermal design. The device enters thermal shutdown at ~150°C junction temperature to prevent damage.
Does the AOZ8244DI-05 support reverse current blocking, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the AOZ8244DI-05 provides integrated reverse current blocking via its internal N-channel MOSFET architecture and dedicated body-diode orientation. When disabled (EN = low), the MOSFET is fully off and blocks current flow from OUT to IN with leakage <1 µA at 5.5 V - eliminating the need for an external Schottky diode in backup power paths.
How does the SRT pin function on the AOZ8244DI-05, and what capacitor value yields a 500 µs rise time?
The SRT pin connects to an external capacitor that sets the gate drive ramp rate, directly controlling output rise time. A 1 nF capacitor yields ~500 µs tr; values range from 100 pF (fastest, ~1.2 µs) to 10 nF (>1 ms). The relationship is linear and specified in the AOZ8244DI-05 datasheet Figure 6 - no resistor is required.
Is the AOZ8244DI-05 compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 hot-plug specifications?
Yes, the AOZ8244DI-05 meets USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 hot-plug requirements through its programmable slew rate (1.2 µs minimum), low inrush charge (<10 nC), and latched fault response. Its 4 A current limit and 27 mΩ RDS(ON) ensure compliance with VBUS droop and steady-state voltage drop limits across the full operating range.
What happens to the FLAG pin during an overcurrent event on the AOZ8244DI-05?
During overcurrent or thermal fault, the FLAG pin pulls low (≤0.4 V) in open-drain configuration and remains latched low until the EN pin is toggled from high to low and back to high. This behavior enables unambiguous fault detection in microcontroller systems without polling or debounce logic - the AOZ8244DI-05 will not auto-recover.
