Product details

Overview

AP22818BKEWT-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 2.0A single-channel high-side load switch optimized for USB and hot-swap applications, featuring 75mΩ RDS(ON), active-low enable (EN), integrated output discharge, reverse-voltage protection (70mV trip), and 6ms deglitched fault flag (FLG). It operates from 2.7V to 5.5V input and delivers controlled power sequencing in ultrabooks and SSDs.

For engineers reviewing the AP22818BKEWT-7 datasheet, AP22818BKEWT-7 pinout, AP22818BKEWT-7 application, or AP22818BKEWT-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.0A current limit, TSOT25 package thermal resistance (123°C/W), active-low logic compatibility, reverse-current blocking capability, and integrated UVLO (2.3V typ.) with 180mV hysteresis.

Technical Context

The AP22818BKEWT-7 implements an N-channel MOSFET high-side switch with bi-directional current sensing and thermal shutdown at +150°C (40°C hysteresis). Its internal discharge FET provides 140–200Ω resistive path to GND when disabled, ensuring rapid VOUT decay (<0.4ms for 1μF).

Protection architecture includes independent overcurrent limiting (2.7A typ. at 4.5V), short-circuit current clamping (~0.5A), reverse-voltage comparator (70mV trip), and undervoltage lockout (2.3V rising threshold) - all with auto-recovery behavior and no external components required.

Key Specifications

ParameterValue and Actual Design Meaning
Input Voltage Range2.7V to 5.5V - supports full USB 2.0/3.0 bus voltage range and common 3.3V/5V system rails.
RDS(ON)75mΩ (typ.) at 5V - enables <150mW conduction loss at 2.0A, reducing thermal stress in TSOT25 package.
Output Current Limit2.7A (typ.) at VOUT = 4.5V - sustains safe operation under sustained overload without latch-off.
Enable PolarityActive-low (EN) - compatible with standard GPIOs asserting low to activate power delivery.
FLG Blanking Time6ms (typ.) - suppresses false fault reporting during capacitive inrush transients in hot-plug scenarios.
Reverse-Voltage Trip70mV (typ.) - blocks reverse current before VOUT exceeds VIN by >70mV, protecting upstream sources.
UVLO Threshold2.3V (typ.) rising - prevents erratic switching during brown-out conditions and ensures clean power-up.

Pinout & Package

AP22818BKEWT-7 is housed in a RoHS-compliant, lead-free TSOT25 (SOT-25-5) package with matte tin-plated leads solderable per MIL-STD-202, Method 208 (e3). Thermal resistance is 123°C/W (Junction-to-Ambient) on standard FR-4 PCB.

Pin/TerminalCircuit RoleDesign Meaning
1 (GND)Ground referencePrimary return path for internal control circuitry and discharge FET; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane.
2 (FLG)Fault indicator outputOpen-drain active-low signal asserting after 6ms deglitch upon overcurrent or overtemperature event.
3 (OUT)Switched outputDrives downstream load; requires 0.1μF ceramic + ≥10μF bulk capacitor to GND for stability and short-circuit immunity.
4 (IN)Power inputAccepts 2.7–5.5V supply; requires 1μF X7R/X5R ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin.
5 (EN)Enable controlActive-low logic input - pulled low to enable switch; must not float; 0.5V max logic low threshold ensures noise margin.

Key Features

Alternative PartTechnical DifferenceApplication DifferenceSelection Advice
TPS22916BLYFPR1.5A rated, 85mΩ RDS(ON), active-high EN, no reverse-voltage protectionLacks reverse-voltage blocking and has lower current rating - unsuitable for USB-C backfeed-sensitive designsSelect only if active-high logic is mandatory and reverse-current risk is mitigated externally.
RT9711CGQW2.0A rated, 70mΩ RDS(ON), active-low EN, but no integrated discharge FET or FLG deglitchRequires external RC network for discharge and lacks fault blanking - increases design complexity and susceptibility to false tripsPrefer only when cost sensitivity outweighs reliability requirements and board space permits external components.

Compared with TPS22916BLYFPR and RT9711CGQW, AP22818BKEWT-7 uniquely combines 2.0A capacity, active-low EN, reverse-voltage protection, integrated discharge, and 6ms FLG blanking in a single TSOT25 package - delivering higher functional integration and USB-compliant robustness without external components.

FAQ

What is the maximum continuous output current supported by AP22818BKEWT-7?

The AP22818BKEWT-7 supports up to 2.0A continuous output current under recommended operating conditions (2.7V–5.5V input, TA ≤ +85°C, proper PCB thermal layout). Its overcurrent limit is 2.7A (typ.) at VOUT = 4.5V, with auto-recovery behavior that maintains regulation rather than latching off. Sustained 2.0A operation requires adherence to thermal guidelines - including use of minimum 2oz copper and thermal vias - due to its 123°C/W RθJA.

Does AP22818BKEWT-7 require external components for basic operation?

No external components are required for core functionality: the device integrates soft-start, discharge FET, fault blanking, and protection circuits. However, mandatory external capacitors include a 1μF ceramic bypass on IN–GND and a 0.1μF ceramic + ≥10μF bulk capacitor on OUT–GND. These ensure stable operation, suppress ringing during short-circuit events, and meet USB hot-plug specifications. No pull-up/pull-down resistors are needed on EN or FLG.

How does the reverse-voltage protection function in AP22818BKEWT-7?

The AP22818BKEWT-7 monitors the voltage difference between OUT and IN. When VOUT exceeds VIN by 70mV (typ.), the internal comparator triggers within 5ms to disable the main power MOSFET, blocking reverse current flow. This protects upstream supplies from backfeed damage during cable misinsertion or system-level fault conditions. Recovery occurs automatically once VOUT − VIN falls below the hysteresis threshold (~35mV), restoring normal forward conduction without user intervention.

Can AP22818BKEWT-7 be used in automotive applications?

The AP22818BKEWT-7 is not AEC-Q100 qualified and is intended for commercial/industrial applications. Diodes Incorporated offers automotive-grade variants (e.g., AP22818W5-7) with AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, PPAP capability, and IATF 16949 manufacturing. For automotive use, contact Diodes' automotive sales team to obtain qualified part numbers, test reports, and change-control documentation - standard AP22818BKEWT-7 lacks automotive-specific reliability validation and temperature range extension beyond −40°C to +85°C.
