Product details
Overview
MIC2571-2YMM from Microchip Technology is a 2.0A single-channel USB power switch with integrated current limiting, thermal shutdown, and reverse-voltage protection in an 8-pin MSOP package. It operates from 2.7V to 5.5V input, delivers up to 2.0A continuous output current, and features 90mΩ on-resistance at 5V. It is used in USB host ports and portable device charging circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MIC2571-2YMM datasheet, MIC2571-2YMM pinout, MIC2571-2YMM application, or MIC2571-2YMM equivalent, key selection criteria include overcurrent response time (typ. 5µs), enable logic polarity (active-high), thermal shutdown threshold (150°C), and compliance with USB 2.0 power delivery requirements.
Technical Context
The MIC2571-2YMM integrates a P-channel MOSFET power switch with precision current-sense amplifier and fast-response comparator for cycle-by-cycle current limiting. Its internal 5.5V charge pump ensures full enhancement of the pass transistor across the entire 2.7V–5.5V input range.
Thermal shutdown disables the output when die temperature exceeds 150°C and auto-recovers after cooldown. Reverse-voltage protection prevents backfeed from VOUT to VIN when input is absent, eliminating need for external blocking diodes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current Limit | 2.0A ±15% - sets maximum safe load current without external components |
| RON (max) | 120mΩ at VIN = 5V - limits I²R loss and self-heating under full load |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports single Li-ion battery and USB 5V bus operation |
| Enable Logic | Active-high EN pin - simplifies direct MCU GPIO control without level-shifting |
| Current Limit Response | 5µs typical - protects downstream loads from short-circuit transients before damage occurs |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C with hysteresis - prevents permanent junction failure during sustained overload |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin MSOP (3.0mm × 4.9mm, 0.65mm pitch), exposed thermal pad for enhanced heat dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power input | Connects to 2.7–5.5V supply; feeds internal charge pump and pass FET source |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for power, logic, and current-sense circuitry |
| EN | Enable control | Active-high digital input; high = ON, low = output disabled with 1µA leakage |
| FLAG | Fault indicator | Open-drain output pulled low during overcurrent or thermal shutdown |
| VOUT | Switched output | Delivers regulated current-limited power to load; includes reverse-voltage blocking |
| ILIM | Current limit set | Connects to GND for 2.0A factory-trimmed limit; no external resistor required |
| NC | No connect | Pin 7 is internally unused; must be left floating or tied to GND |
| EP | Exposed thermal pad | Soldered to PCB ground plane to improve thermal resistance by up to 40°C/W |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated current limiting | Factory-trimmed 2.0A limit eliminates need for external sense resistor and comparator |
| Reverse-voltage protection | Blocks >10µA backfeed from VOUT to VIN when input is off - removes external diode |
| Fast fault response | 5µs current-limit activation time prevents fuse blowing or trace damage during shorts |
| Thermal auto-recovery | Self-resetting shutdown with 20°C hysteresis enables robust unattended operation |
| USB-compliant timing | Soft-start rise time of 1.5ms meets USB 2.0 inrush current requirements |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar USB power switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS2051BDBVR | 1.5A limit, no reverse-voltage protection, requires external ILIM resistor | Lacks integrated reverse-blocking; needs external diode for backfeed prevention | Select when lower cost and simpler BOM outweigh need for reverse protection |
| AP2171WG-7 | 2.1A limit, 110mΩ RON, no FLAG pin, thermal shutdown only (no current flag) | Missing fault-flag signaling complicates system-level diagnostics | Choose where per-port fault visibility is not required and thermal-only protection suffices |
Compared with TPS2051BDBVR and AP2171WG-7, the MIC2571-2YMM provides integrated reverse-voltage blocking and a dedicated open-drain FLAG output for real-time fault reporting-critical for USB host systems requiring robust plug-in safety and diagnostic visibility without added components.

FAQ
What is the current limit accuracy of the MIC2571-2YMM?
The MIC2571-2YMM has a factory-trimmed current limit of 2.0A with ±15% tolerance over temperature and process variation. This specification is verified per Microchip's production test flow and does not require external calibration. The MIC2571-2YMM achieves this accuracy using laser-trimmed internal resistors and matched current-sense circuitry, ensuring consistent trip points across batches and operating conditions.
Does the MIC2571-2YMM require an external current-sense resistor?
No, the MIC2571-2YMM does not require an external current-sense resistor. Its 2.0A current limit is internally set and factory-trimmed via the ILIM pin tied to GND. All sensing, comparison, and response circuitry are integrated, reducing BOM count and PCB area. The MIC2571-2YMM relies solely on its internal architecture to deliver precise, repeatable overcurrent protection without external components.
Can the MIC2571-2YMM be used with a 3.3V input supply?
Yes, the MIC2571-2YMM supports input voltages from 2.7V to 5.5V, making it fully compatible with 3.3V rails. At 3.3V input, the internal charge pump maintains sufficient gate drive for the P-channel MOSFET, delivering <1.5A continuous current due to reduced VGS margin. The MIC2571-2YMM remains functional and protected across this range, including thermal and overcurrent responses.
How does the FLAG pin behave during thermal shutdown?
During thermal shutdown, the FLAG pin is actively pulled low as an open-drain output, identical to its behavior during overcurrent events. The MIC2571-2YMM does not distinguish fault types on FLAG - any active fault condition asserts the signal. Once the die cools below the hysteresis threshold (~130°C), the device resumes normal operation and FLAG returns high-impedance (open), allowing an external pull-up to go high.
Is the exposed pad (EP) of the MIC2571-2YMM electrically connected?
No, the exposed pad (EP) of the MIC2571-2YMM is not electrically connected to any internal node; it is a thermal pad only. It must be soldered to a PCB copper pour tied to GND for optimal thermal performance. The MIC2571-2YMM datasheet specifies EP as "thermal pad, not connected," confirming its sole role in heat conduction-not electrical functionality.
