Select by type
Fixed current-limit switch
Provide protection when heavy capacitive loads and short circuits may be encountered, such as in USB. Current limit is constant.
USB charging-port controllers
Enable charging with USB Type-A protection and USB dataline BC 1.2 handshaking.
Precision adjustable-limit switch
Provide protection when heavy capacitive loads and short circuits may be encountered, such as in USB. Use an external resistor to set current limit.
Switch with integrated boost converter or LDO
Provide protection with an integrated boost converter or LDO when heavy capacitive loads and short circuits may be encountered, such as in USB.
