MIC2076-1BM-TR

Background Information:

The MIC2076-1BM-TR from Micrel is a power distribution switch/load driver integrated circuit. This device is designed to provide a high current path between two power domains (VOUT1) and (VOUT2). The MIC2076-1BM-TR is a low on-resistance (RDS(on)) switch/load driver and can be used in a variety of applications.

Applications:

The MIC2076-1BM-TR can be used in a variety of applications including power distribution, load driving, and voltage regulation. In power distribution applications, the device can be used to switch power between two separate power domains. The device can also be used in load driving applications to control the current flow in a system by connecting/disconnecting one or more loads as needed. Additionally, the MIC2076-1BM-TR can be used in voltage regulation applications to provide a controlled, regulated current through a circuit.

Working Principle:

The MIC2076-1BM-TR operates by passing an operating voltage (VDS) between the Drain and the Source. When VDS is negative, the device will be in the off-state, otherwise it will be in the on-state. The device is designed to provide a low RDS(on) and a high load current when in the on-state. The MIC2076-1BM-TR also features a thermal shutdown feature, which will cause the device to turn off if the junction temperature exceeds a predetermined limit.

Conclusion:

The MIC2076-1BM-TR is an integrated power distribution switch/load driver from Micrel. The device is designed to provide a high load current path between two separate power domains. The MIC2076-1BM-TR can be used in a variety of applications including power distribution, load driving, and voltage regulation. The device operates by passing an operating voltage (VDS) between the Drain and the Source, which determines its on/off state. The MIC2076-1BM-TR is a low on-resistance switch and also features a thermal shutdown feature, which will shut it down if the junction temperature exceeds a pre-set limit.
