RT9703
80mΩ, 3A Smart Universal Power Switch with Flag
Ω
General Description
The RT9703 is a low voltage, high performance single
N-MOSFET power switch, designed for power rail on/off
control with low R
DS(ON)
≈
80mΩ and full protection
functions. The RT9703 equipped with a charge pump
circuitry to drive the internal MOSFET switch and a flag
output is available to indicate fault conditions against large
di/dt which may cause the supply to fall out of regulation.
In order to fit different application, an IP pin is offered for
current limit point setting, a resistor from IP to ground
sets the current limit for the switch.
Additional features include soft-start to limit inrush current
during plug-in, thermal shutdown to prevent catastrophic
switch failure from high-current loads, under-voltage
lockout (UVLO) to ensure that the device remains off
unless there is a valid input voltage present, a precision
resistor-programmable output current limit up to 3.5A.
Besides, the lower quiescent current as 30μA making this
device ideal for portable battery-operated equipment.
The RT9703 is available in SOP-8 package requiring
minimum board space and smallest components.

Note 1.
Stresses listed as the above "Absolute Maximum Ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device. These are for
stress ratings. Functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the
operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended
periods may remain possibility to affect device reliability.
Note 2.
Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precaution recommended.
Note 3.
The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating conditions.
Note 4.
The FLAG delay time is input voltage dependent, see
“
Typical Operating Characteristics
”
graph for further details.
Note 5.
Current limit is determined by: I
LIMIT
=
210k/R
SET
, where R
SET
is in ohms.
Note 6.
It is important to note that the maximum current limit value shall be set properly in accordance with its supply voltage
otherwise which it may result in the failure occurrence. See
“
Maximum Current Limit vs. Supply Voltage
”
graph shown
on the applications information section for further details.
Note 7.
For input voltage lower than 5V, the threshold level will subject to
±
0.6V deviation throughout the operating junction
temperature range. Refer to the
“
Typical Operating Characteristics
”
graph for further details.
Note 8.
R
DS(ON)
is measured at constant junction temperature by using a 1ms current pulse.
