150 mOhm high-side switch with Auto Restart
The Infineon BTS4142NNT is a single-channel high-side power switch in a PG-SOT223-4 surface-mount package. It switches a 12 V to 45 V load rail through an N-channel MOSFET with a typical on-resistance of 150 mOhm, delivering up to 1.4 A continuous output current. This is a protected switch, not a bare transistor — it integrates current limiting, over-temperature shutdown, and over-voltage clamping. The Auto Restart feature means the switch cycles back on after a fault clears, so it recovers without a system reset in transient overload conditions.
The BTS4142NNT is listed as Obsolete by Infineon.
Fault protection and temperature grade
The fixed current-limiting threshold protects the load wiring and the switch itself during a hard short. The input is a simple On/Off logic signal (non-inverting), and no external Vcc supply is needed — the switch is self-powered from the load rail.
