Four-channel high-side switch for 12V/24V distribution
The Infineon BTS52004EKAXUMA1 is a PROFET N-channel high-side power switch with four independent outputs, each rated for 800 mA continuous and a typical on-resistance of 200 mOhm. The load voltage range spans 5 V to 28 V, which covers both 12 V automotive and 24 V industrial rails without a separate supply bias — Vcc is not required.
Junction temperature and package — the thermal budget
The 14-SOIC exposed pad package (PG-DSO-14-48-EP) requires a thermal-via stitch to the ground plane to pull heat out of the die; without it, the 800 mA per-channel rating derates significantly above 85°C ambient.
Protection set saves downstream components
Fixed current limiting clamps each channel at a safe level during a short to ground — the 200 mOhm Rds(on) limits the inrush current on a cold lamp or capacitive load without external series resistors. Open-load detection flags a disconnected harness or blown fuse, and over-temperature protection latches the channel off until the die cools. These features are built into the parallel interface; no SPI or diagnostic bus is needed, which simplifies the MCU firmware for a simple on/off load bank.
Lifecycle and sourcing — no LTB pressure
The part is ROHS3 compliant.
