General Description
The G525A is an integrated high-side power switch
optimized for self-powered and bus-powered Universal
Serial Bus (USB) applications.
The G525A satisfies the USB standards. The switch's
low on-resistance meets USB voltage drop require-
ments. When the output load exceeds current-limit
threshold, G525A switches into constant mode and
limit the output current to a safe level, which is typically
1.4A, well below the UL 25VA safety requirements. An
open-drain flag output is also available to indicate fault
conditions to the local USB controller. Soft start elimi-
nates the momentary voltage drop on the upstream port
that may occur when the switch is enabled in
bus-powered applications.
Besides, a thermal shutdown circuit is included to pre-
vent catastrophic switch failure caused by increasing
power dissipation when continuous heavy loads or
short circuit occurs. A under-voltage lockout (UVLO)
circuit ensures that the device remains off unless there
is a valid input voltage present, and an enable input
that is compatible with both 3.3V and 5V logic.
The G525A is a UL recognized component and is
available in active-high and active-low versions in 8-pin
SOP packages.

Functional Description
The G525A1 and G525A2 are high-side 1-channel
switches with active-high and active-low enable inputs,
respectively. Fault conditions turn off or inhibit turn-on
of the output transistors and activate the open-drain
error flag transistors to pull FLG pin to ground.
Input and Output
IN (input) is the power supply connection to the logic
circuitry and the source of the output MOSFET. OUT
(output) is the drain of the output MOSFET. In a typical
application, current flows through the switch from IN to
OUT toward the load. Both OUT pins must be
connected together to the load.
Ver: 1.2
Nov 11, 2002
The output MOSFET and driving circuit are also de-
signed to allow the MOSFET drain to be externally
forced to a higher voltage than the source (V
OUT
> V
IN
)
when the switch is off. In this situation, the G525A
avoids undesirable drain-to-body diode current flow by
connecting the body to the most positive voltage. If
V
OUT
>V
IN
when switch is enabled, current will flow
from V
OUT
to V
IN
.
Thermal Shutdown
Thermal shutdown protects G525A from excessive
power dissipation. If the die temperature exceeds
135°C, the MOSFETS switch is shut off and a fault
flag is activated. 10°C of hystersis prevents the switch
