The IPS1025HF from STMicroelectronics is a Single High-Side Power Switch that is designed to drive resistive, capacitive, or inductive loads with one side connected to the ground. It requires an input voltage of 8.65 - 60 V. This power switch uses two different sets of activation thresholds and limitation levels to intelligently drive the capacitive loads and loads with initial peak current requirements. It modulates the impedance of the output switch to limit the output current, thereby protecting the load. This power switch integrates a junction over-temperature sensor that is activated during over-temperature events and also uses an additional temperature sensor to monitor the case temperature such that the output channel can be turned back ON only when the case temperature falls below the reset temperature.
The IPS1025HF consists of over-voltage protection (OVP), over-load protection (OLP), and IC event diagnostic pins to prevent short-circuit-related damages. It is available in a surface-mount package that measures 10.1 x 10.1 x 2.15 mm and is ideal for programmable logic control (PLC), vending machines, industrial PC peripheral input/output, numerical control machines, and general high-side switch applications.
