Product details

3A high-side switch with 40 mOhm Rds(on)

The MIC2043-2YM is a single-channel high-side power switch from Microchip Technology, rated for a continuous output current of 3A maximum. The input is non-inverting with an On/Off interface, and the output configuration is a single N-channel MOSFET with a 1:1 input-to-output ratio.

Fault protection set and status flag

The MIC2043-2YM integrates adjustable current limiting, open-load detection, overtemperature shutdown, and undervoltage lockout (UVLO). The status flag output signals when the switch is in fault — useful for a microcontroller to log or retry the load. The slew-rate controlled turn-on limits inrush current into capacitive loads, which prevents the upstream supply from drooping. The 8-SOIC package (0.154" width, 3.90mm body) is a standard footprint for automated assembly.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum output current and on-resistance of the MIC2043-2YM?

The MIC2043-2YM is rated for a continuous output current of 3A maximum, with a typical on-resistance of 40 mOhm. The 40 mOhm Rds(on) at 3A produces 0.36W of conduction loss, which the 8-SOIC package dissipates through the PCB copper.

What fault protection features does the MIC2043-2YM include?

The MIC2043-2YM integrates adjustable current limiting, open-load detection, overtemperature shutdown, and undervoltage lockout (UVLO). A status flag output signals fault conditions to the system controller.
