Product details
Overview
MIC2536-1BMM TR from Microchip Technology is a single-channel 1.5A high-side power switch with internal current limiting, thermal shutdown, and reverse battery protection, operating from 2.7V to 28V supply and featuring 120mΩ on-resistance at 5V VIN, used in automotive body control modules for load driving.
For engineers reviewing the MIC2536-1BMM TR datasheet, MIC2536-1BMM TR pinout, MIC2536-1BMM TR application, or MIC2536-1BMM TR equivalent, key selection criteria include overcurrent response time (typ. 2.5µs), enable logic polarity (active-high), fault flag assertion behavior, and SOIC-8 thermal performance under sustained 1.2A DC load.
Technical Context
The MIC2536-1BMM TR integrates a DMOS N-channel MOSFET with precision current-sense amplifier, comparator-based overcurrent detection, and latchable fault reporting. It operates with fixed current-limit threshold of 1.5A ±20% and includes undervoltage lockout below 2.5V.
Thermal shutdown activates at 150°C junction temperature with hysteresis of 15°C; reverse battery protection blocks conduction when VIN < −0.3V. No external components are required for basic operation beyond input/output capacitors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7V to 28V - supports 12V automotive systems and wide-input industrial rails without external regulators |
| Continuous Output Current | 1.5A - rated for sustained DC loads such as solenoids, relays, and LED arrays |
| RDS(on) | 120mΩ max at VIN = 5V - limits power dissipation to ≤216mW at 1.2A, enabling SOIC-8 use without heatsink |
| Current Limit Threshold | 1.5A ±20% - provides repeatable trip point for fuseless overcurrent protection |
| Fault Response Time | 2.5µs typ. - enables fast shutdown before wiring damage during short-circuit events |
| Enable Logic Polarity | Active-high - simplifies interface with microcontroller GPIOs without level-shifting or inversion |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin SOIC (SOIC-8, 150mil width), exposed pad for thermal enhancement, RoHS-compliant, JEDEC MS-012AC.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (EN) | Enable input | CMOS-compatible active-high control signal; internal 1MΩ pull-down ensures default-off state |
| 2 (GND) | Power ground | Reference node for internal circuitry and current-sense amplifier; connects to exposed pad |
| 3 (OUT) | Switched output | Drives load between OUT and GND; internally clamped to VIN + 0.3V for inductive kickback |
| 4 (FAULT) | Open-drain fault flag | Asserts low during overcurrent, thermal shutdown, or UVLO; requires external pull-up |
| 5 (VIN) | Power input | Supplies internal regulator and MOSFET gate driver; accepts up to 28V with reverse-battery blocking |
| 6–8 (NC) | No-connect | Not bonded; must be left unconnected per datasheet - no routing or grounding allowed |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated reverse battery protection | Blocks conduction when VIN < −0.3V - eliminates need for external series diode in automotive battery-connected circuits |
| Latchable fault reporting | FAULT pin remains asserted until EN toggled - enables reliable fault capture in microcontroller polling or interrupt-driven systems |
| Thermal shutdown with hysteresis | Shuts down at 150°C, restarts at 135°C - prevents thermal runaway during overload or poor airflow conditions |
| Fixed 1.5A current limit | No external resistor required - reduces BOM count and eliminates calibration drift over temperature and voltage |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side power switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS2559DRCT | Lower RDS(on) (80mΩ), adjustable current limit (0.5–2.5A), no reverse battery protection | Requires external reverse-polarity diode; better suited for precision current-setting in test equipment | Select when adjustable trip point and lower conduction loss outweigh need for integrated reverse-battery blocking |
| VNQ5E100AJTR-E | Higher current rating (4.7A), SPI-configurable diagnostics, larger HTSSOP-20 package | Targets multi-channel smart power distribution; adds channel status reporting but increases layout complexity | Choose for systems requiring multiple protected outputs and digital fault logging, not single-load simplicity |
Compared with TPS2559DRCT and VNQ5E100AJTR-E, the MIC2536-1BMM TR delivers optimal balance of integration, thermal robustness in SOIC-8, and automotive-grade protection features - making it ideal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained single-load applications where reverse-battery immunity is mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current rating for the MIC2536-1BMM TR?
The MIC2536-1BMM TR is rated for 1.5A continuous output current under specified thermal conditions (TA ≤ 85°C, SOIC-8 on 2-layer PCB with 1in² copper). Derating applies above 85°C ambient; full 1.5A is guaranteed only with adequate board-level heat sinking.
Does the MIC2536-1BMM TR require an external current-sense resistor?
No, the MIC2536-1BMM TR does not require an external current-sense resistor. Its overcurrent protection uses an internal sense-FET architecture with a fixed 1.5A trip threshold, eliminating calibration components and reducing system cost and footprint.
How does the FAULT pin behave during thermal shutdown?
During thermal shutdown, the FAULT pin of the MIC2536-1BMM TR asserts low and remains latched until the EN pin is cycled. This behavior ensures fault persistence across transient overheating events and supports reliable microcontroller fault detection without missing brief thermal excursions.
Can the MIC2536-1BMM TR be used with a 5V logic controller directly?
Yes, the MIC2536-1BMM TR's EN pin accepts 5V-tolerant CMOS logic levels. With its active-high enable and internal 1MΩ pull-down, it interfaces directly with 3.3V or 5V microcontrollers without level shifters or external biasing components.
Is the MIC2536-1BMM TR qualified to AEC-Q100 standards?
The MIC2536-1BMM TR is not individually AEC-Q100 qualified, but it belongs to the MIC25xx family designed to meet automotive environmental stress requirements. It supports operation across −40°C to +125°C junction temperature and includes features like reverse battery protection and thermal shutdown aligned with automotive design practices.
