Delivery of higher system reliability with safety features like overcurrent, voltage, temperature and reverse current blocking. Integrated protection circuitry that can replace conventional fuses and other protection devices. Universal Features of Semtech’s HotSwitch Platform HS2240P comes in a small 3.5x2mm 14-pin DFN package. The VIN pin of this device is rated for a high-energy transient current up to 40A (tp =8/20μs). It incorporates a high ESD withstand voltage of ☓0kV for air and contact per IEC 6. HS2240P, an integrated eFuse and surge protection deviceĭesigned to protect against various electrical overstress (EOS) conditions including lightning, electrostatic discharge (ESD), short circuits and inrush current capabilities, this device works in an input voltage range of 2.7V to 22V, with a current limiting threshold of 3.9A.

The device offers thermal shutdown functionality and faults flagging to ensure a rugged defense for downstream industrial, telecom and consumer systems subject to transients and short circuits risk. HS2950P comes in a small 3x3mm 12-pin DFN package. With a wide input voltage range of 2.7V to 29V, supporting up to 5A output current, this product features a low 25mΩ (typical) Rds(on) to minimize power loss and contains various adjustable protection features, including soft-start, turn on-delay, overvoltage, under-voltage, and current limit. HS2950P, a single channel integrated high-side load switch Two HotSwitch platform products are available now and can be purchased through Semtech’s distribution channels. They offer an enhanced shield against inrush current, overvoltage, under voltage, reverse current, short circuit, and over-temperature faults. HotSwitch devices are specifically designed to detect electrical surges and provide robust security to the downstream subsystem by gracefully disconnecting the load from the power source. “With the new HotSwitch platform, Semtech has expanded the protection tools available to the design community for safeguarding systems, prolonging operational life and enabling use of electronic systems in a more environmentally sustainable manner.” “Semtech has a long-established reputation as a trusted and leading innovator and provider of circuit protection,” said Tamir Reshef, vice president of marketing for Semtech's Protection Products Group.

Semtech’s HotSwitch platform, which aids in safeguarding electric systems, provides elevated protection features that prolong the life span of electronic devices and potentially reduce e-waste. With consumers now owning up to 22 connected devices, the potential amount of e-waste has become an ongoing challenge for electronic systems manufacturers. Electronic waste, or e-waste, is the fastest growing source of waste globally with e-waste volumes growing to 53.6 million metric tons in 2019, an increase of 21% since 2014 according to the Environmental Protection Agency. This platform includes integrated load switches and eFuses with first-of-their-kind elevated protection feature sets optimized for protecting electronics systems against typical electrical transients and steady-state fault conditions.
