Product details
Overview
AP2191DWG-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a single-channel, active-high enable, high-side USB power switch with integrated output discharge, 2.1A current limiting, 90mΩ RDS(ON) (U-DFN2018-6), and 7ms deglitched fault reporting - designed for hot-swap USB 2.0 ports in laptops, docking stations, and HUBs.
For engineers reviewing the AP2191DWG-7 datasheet, AP2191DWG-7 pinout, AP2191DWG-7 application, or AP2191DWG-7 equivalent, this device delivers precise overcurrent protection, reverse-current blocking, UVLO, thermal shutdown with 25°C hysteresis, and controlled 0.6ms rise time - critical for reliable USB port power management under transient load conditions.
Technical Context
The AP2191DWG-7 implements a thermally protected, slew-rate-controlled N-channel MOSFET gate driver with internal current-sense FET architecture - eliminating external sense resistors while maintaining ±15% current-limit accuracy across -40°C to +85°C. Its UVLO threshold (1.9V typ) activates only when enabled, ensuring safe startup during hot-insertion.
It integrates a dedicated NMOS discharge path (RDIS = 100Ω) activated on disable, enabling rapid VOUT decay without external components. The open-drain FLG pin combines overcurrent and overtemperature detection with a fixed 7ms blanking window to suppress false triggers from capacitive inrush.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Current Limit | 2.1A typical - clamps sustained output current to prevent damage during overload or short circuit. |
| RDS(ON) | 90mΩ max (U-DFN2018-6, VIN = 5V, TA = +25°C) - minimizes conduction loss and self-heating at 1.5A continuous load. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V–5.5V - supports full USB 2.0 bus voltage range including low-voltage battery-backed operation. |
| Rise Time | 0.6ms typical (CL = 1µF, RLOAD = 10Ω) - limits inrush current during hot-plug events. |
| Shutdown Current | 1µA max - enables ultra-low-power standby in portable systems with strict quiescent budget. |
| FLG Blanking Time | 7ms typical - suppresses false fault assertions from capacitor charging transients without external RC network. |
| Discharge Resistance | 100Ω - provides predictable RC-based VOUT decay (e.g., ~12ms for 120µF load) on disable. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 140°C trip with 25°C hysteresis - prevents permanent junction damage during prolonged overload. |
Pinout & Package
AP2191DWG-7 is packaged in U-DFN2018-6 (2.0mm × 1.8mm, 0.5mm pitch), featuring an exposed thermal pad that must be soldered to PCB ground for optimal θJA = 70°C/W performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Power and signal reference ground; connects to thermal pad for heat dissipation. |
| 2 | IN | Main input supply pin (2.7V–5.5V); requires local 0.1µF ceramic bypass. |
| 3 | EN | Active-high enable control - logic high ≥2V enables switch; low ≤0.8V disables with discharge activation. |
| 4 | FLG | Open-drain fault indicator - pulled low during overcurrent or overtemperature; requires external pull-up. |
| 5, 6 | OUT | Switched output pins - must be tied together externally; drives downstream USB load with discharge path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Output Discharge Function | Integrated 100Ω NMOS discharge path activated on EN de-assertion - eliminates need for external bleed resistor. |
| Reverse Current Blocking | Prevents backflow from OUT to IN when VOUT > VIN and switch is disabled - protects upstream power rail. |
| UVLO with Enable-Gated Activation | 1.9V typical lockout only engages when EN is high - ensures switch remains off until stable input is present. |
| 7ms Deglitched Fault Reporting | Hardware-blanked FLG assertion prevents false trips from capacitive inrush - no external timing components required. |
| Thermal Cycling Protection | 140°C shutdown + 25°C hysteresis enables safe auto-recovery mode during persistent faults - avoids latch-up. |
Applications
| USB 2.0 Port Power Control | Docking Station Load Switching |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Managing power delivery to individual USB Type-A ports in multi-port hubs where hot-plug reliability is critical. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side power switch with controlled turn-on/turn-off, current limiting, and fault reporting.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Hot-swap controller with discharge function and reverse-current blocking. Use Value: Ensures clean VOUT decay (<12ms for 120µF) on disconnect and blocks backfeed from powered peripherals into host system. |
| Laptop Internal USB Hub | Set-Top Box USB Peripheral Interface |
|
Use Scenario: Power gating internal USB 2.0 hubs behind the EC (Embedded Controller) in thin-and-light notebooks. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-quiescent (1µA shutdown) load switch with thermal resilience. Use Value: Meets stringent system-level sleep current budgets while surviving sustained 1.5A loads at +85°C ambient. |
Use Scenario: Enabling/disabling USB-connected storage or streaming dongles in consumer set-top boxes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Protected power switch with UVLO and ESD-hardened I/O (4kV HBM).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side USB power switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP2181DWG-7 | Active-low EN pin; identical current limit, RDS(ON), and protection features. | Requires inverted enable logic from host MCU or PMIC; same thermal and layout footprint. | Select when system control logic uses active-low signaling or shares EN routing with legacy designs. |
| TCK112G,LF | 2.5A current limit, 65mΩ RDS(ON), 1.2ms rise time; no integrated discharge function. | Higher current capacity but requires external 10kΩ discharge resistor and pull-up on FLT pin. | Choose for higher-power USB-C or industrial hot-swap where lower conduction loss outweighs added BOM cost. |
Compared with AP2181DWG-7, the AP2191DWG-7 simplifies enable interface design with direct MCU GPIO compatibility; versus TCK112G, it trades marginally higher RDS(ON) for integrated discharge and tighter fault blanking - reducing component count and layout complexity in space-constrained USB 2.0 applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous load current supported by AP2191DWG-7?
The AP2191DWG-7 is rated for 1.5A maximum continuous load current per the datasheet's Recommended Operating Conditions. This limit ensures safe operation within thermal constraints across the full -40°C to +85°C ambient range, even with its 90mΩ RDS(ON) in the U-DFN2018-6 package and 70°C/W θJA.
Does AP2191DWG-7 require external components for fault blanking or output discharge?
No. The AP2191DWG-7 integrates both functions: a hardware-based 7ms deglitch timer on the FLG pin eliminates false overcurrent reporting without external RC networks, and an internal 100Ω NMOS discharge path activates automatically when EN is de-asserted - removing the need for external resistors or MOSFETs.
How does the reverse current blocking feature operate?
Reverse current blocking is implemented via internal circuitry that detects VOUT > VIN when the switch is disabled. It actively prevents backflow from the output capacitor or powered peripheral into the input rail - critical for preventing unintended power injection in multi-rail systems or during hot-removal scenarios.
Can AP2191DWG-7 be used in USB 3.0 or USB-C applications?
The AP2191DWG-7 is specified and qualified for USB 2.0 compliance only. While its electrical specs (e.g., 5.5V max input, 2.1A limit) may appear compatible, it lacks the bandwidth, low-noise characteristics, and USB-IF certification required for USB 3.x signaling integrity or USB-C power delivery negotiation - use only in USB 2.0 data+power contexts.
