RT9712
90mΩ
Ω, 1A/1.5A High-Side Dual Power Switches with Flag
General Description
Features
The RT9712 power-distribution switches are designed to
fulfill the applications in heavy capacitive loads and shortcircuit situations. The device incorporates two 90mΩ NMOSFET power switches to fit power distribution systems
requiring multiple power switches in a single package.
During switching process, an internal charge pump is
designed to provide the gate drive for the purpose of powerswitch rise times and fall times controlling to minimize
the current surges. The charge pump can operate in supply
voltage as low as 2.7V and needs no external
components.
z
If the output load exceeds the current-limit threshold or a
short-circuit occurs.The RT9712 series pull the overcurrent
(FLGx) logic output low by switching into the constantcurrent mode to maintain the output current in a safe level,
A thermal protection circuit turns off the switch to prevent
the device from damage when power dissipation is
increased by continuous heavy overloads and short-circuits
in the switch and finally cause the rise of the junction
temperature. The device automatically recovers when it
has sufficiently cooled down. The RT9712A/B are designed
for the current limit at typically 2A and RT9712C/D are
designed for the current limit at typically 1.5A. Internal
circuitry controls the switch to remain off until valid input
voltage is presented.

Applications Information
The RT9712A/B/C/D are dual N-MOSFET high-side power
switch with enable input, optimized for self-powered and
bus-powered Universal Serial Bus (USB) applications. The
RT9712 series are equipped with a charge pump circuitry
to drive the internal N-MOSFET switch; the switch's low
RDS(ON), 90mΩ, meets USB voltage drop requirements;
and a flag output is available to indicate fault conditions
to the local USB controller.
Input and Output
VIN (input) is the power source connection to the internal
circuitry and the drain of the MOSFET. VOUT (output) is
the source of the MOSFET. In a typical application, current
flows through the switch from VIN to VOUT toward the load.
If VOUT is greater than VIN, current will flow from VOUT to
VIN since the MOSFET is bidirectional when on.
Unlike a normal MOSFET, there is no parasitic body diode
between drain and source of the MOSFET, the RT9712A/
B/C/D prevents reverse current flow if VOUT is externally
forced to a higher voltage than VIN when the chip is disabled
(VEN < 0.8V or VEN > 2V).

Soft Start for Hot Plug-In Applications
In order to eliminate the upstream voltage droop caused
by the large inrush current during hot-plug events, the
“soft-start” feature effectively isolates the power source
from extremely large capacitive loads, satisfying the USB
voltage droop requirements.
Fault Flag
The RT9712 series provides a FLG signal pin which is an
N-Channel open drain MOSFET output. This open drain
output goes low when current limit or the die temperature
exceeds 120°C approximately. The FLG output is capable
of sinking a 10mA load to typically 200mV above ground.
The FLG pin requires a pull-up resistor, this resistor should
be large in value to reduce energy drain. A 100kΩ pull-up
resistor works well for most applications. In the case of
an over-current condition, FLG will be asserted only after
the flag response delay time, tD, has elapsed. This ensures
that FLG is asserted only upon valid over-current conditions
and that erroneous error reporting is eliminated.
For example, false over-current conditions may occur
during hot-plug events when extremely large capacitive
loads are connected and causes a high transient inrush
current that exceeds the current limit threshold. The FLG
response delay time tD is typically 12ms.
Under-Voltage Lockout
G

Normal MOSFET
RT9712A/B/C/D
Chip Enable Input
The switch will be disabled when the EN/EN pin is in a
logic low/high condition. During this condition, the internal
circuitry and MOSFET will be turned off, reducing the
supply current to 0.1μA typical. Floating the EN/EN may
cause unpredictable operation. EN should not be allowed
to go negative with respect to GND. The EN/EN pin may
be directly tied to VIN (GND) to keep the part on.

Under-voltage lockout (UVLO) prevents the MOSFET
switch from turning on until the input voltage exceeds
approximately 1.7V. If input voltage drops below
approximately 1.3V, UVLO turns off the MOSFET switch.
Under-voltage detection functions only when the switch
is enabled.
Current Limit and Short-Circuit Protection
The current limit circuitry prevents damage to the MOSFET
switch and the hub downstream port. Besides, in order to
prevent the miss-trigger because of USB plug in and other
inrush current, the device allows load current greater than
current limit threshold (typically 1.5A for RT9712A/B and
1A for RT9712C/D) at a short time as shown in Figure 1.

When the load current reaches the trigger point (typically
3.5A for RT9712A/B and 2.8A for RT9712C/D) or short
circuit is applied to the output, the device will enter constant
current mode until the thermal shutdown occurs or the
fault is removed.

Self-Powered Hub power for the internal functions and
downstream ports does not come from the USB, although
the USB interface may draw up to 100mA from its
upstream connect to allow the interface to function when
the remainder of the hub is powered down. The hub must
be able to supply up to 500mA on all of its external
downstream ports. Please refer to Universal Serial
Specification Revision 2.0 for more details on designing
compliant USB hub and host systems.
Over-Current protection devices such as fuses and PTC
resistors (also called polyfuse or polyswitch) have slow
trip times, high on-resistance, and lack the necessary
circuitry for USB-required fault reporting.
The faster trip time of the RT9712A/B/C/D power
distribution allow designers to design hubs that can operate
through faults. The RT9712A/B/C/D provide low onresistance and internal fault-reporting circuitry to meet
voltage regulation and fault notification requirements.
Universal Serial Bus (USB) & Power Distribution
The goal of USB is to enable device from different vendors
to interoperate in an open architecture. USB features
include ease of use for the end user, a wide range of
workloads and applications, robustness, synergy with the
PC industry, and low-cost implementation. Benefits
include self-identifying peripherals, dynamically attachable
and reconfigurable peripherals, multiple connections
(support for concurrent operation of many devices), support
for as many as 127 physical devices, and compatibility
with PC Plug-and-Play architecture.
The Universal Serial Bus connects USB devices with a
USB host: each USB system has one USB host. USB
devices are classified either as hubs, which provide
additional attachment points to the USB, or as functions,
which provide capabilities to the system (for example, a
digital joystick). Hub devices are then classified as either
Bus-Power Hubs or Self-Powered Hubs.
Because the devices are also power switches, the designer
of self-powered hubs has the flexibility to turn off power to
output ports. Unlike a normal MOSFET, the devices have
controlled rise and fall times to provide the needed inrush
current limiting required for the bus-powered hub power
switch.
Supply Filter/Bypass Capacitor
A 0.1μF low-ESR ceramic capacitor from VIN to GND,
located at the device is strongly recommended to prevent
the input voltage drooping during hot-plug events. However,
higher capacitor values will further reduce the voltage droop
on the input. Furthermore, without the bypass capacitor,
an output short may cause sufficient ringing on the input
(from source lead inductance) to destroy the internal
control circuitry. The input transient must not exceed 6V
of the absolute maximum supply voltage even for a short
duration.
A Bus-Powered Hub draws all of the power to any internal
functions and downstream ports from the USB connector
power pins. The hub may draw up to 500mA from the
upstream device. External ports in a Bus-Powered Hub
can supply up to 100mA per port, with a maximum of four
external ports.

RT9712
Output Filter Capacitor
A low-ESR 150μF aluminum electrolytic or tantalum
between VOUT and GND is strongly recommended to meet
the 330mV maximum droop requirement in the hub VBUS
(Per USB 2.0, output ports must have a minimum 120μF
of low-ESR bulk capacitance per hub). Standard bypass
methods should be used to minimize inductance and
resistance between the bypass capacitor and the
downstream connector to reduce EMI and decouple voltage
droop caused when downstream cables are hot-insertion
transients. Ferrite beads in series with VBUS, the ground
line and the 0.1μF bypass capacitors at the power
connector pins are recommended for EMI and ESD
protection. The bypass capacitor itself should have a low
dissipation factor to allow decoupling at higher frequencies.
and the drop across the PCB and switch to be 100mV.
This basically leaves two variables in the equation: the
resistance of the switch and the resistance of the cable.
If the hub consumes the maximum current (II) of 500mA,
the maximum resistance of the cable is 90mΩ.
The resistance of the switch can be defined as follows :
RSWITCH = { 4.75V − 4.4V − [ 0.5A x ( 4 x 30mΩ + 2 x
90mΩ) ] − VPCB } ÷ ( 0.1A x NPORTS )
= (200mV − VPCB ) ÷ ( 0.1A x NPORTS )
If the voltage drop across the PCB is limited to 100mV,
the maximum resistance for the switch is 250mΩ for four
ports ganged together. The RT9712A/B/C/D, with its
maximum 100mΩ on-resistance over temperature can fit
the demand of this requirement.
Voltage Drop
The USB specification states a minimum port-output
voltage in two locations on the bus, 4.75V out of a SelfPowered Hub port and 4.40V out of a Bus-Powered Hub
port. As with the Self-Powered Hub, all resistive voltage
drops for the Bus-Powered Hub must be accounted for to
guarantee voltage regulation (see Figure 7-47 of Universal
Serial Specification Revision 2.0 ).
The following calculation determines VOUT (MIN) for multiple ports (NPORTS) ganged together through one switch (if
using one switch per port, NPORTS is equal to 1) :
Thermal Shutdown
Thermal protection limits power dissipation in the
RT9712A/B/C/D. When the operation junction temperature
exceeds 120°C (typ.), the OTP circuit starts the thermal
shutdown function and turns the pass element off. The
pass element turns on again after the junction temperature
cools to 80°C. The IC lowers its OTP trip level from 120°C
to 100°C when output short circuit occurs (VOUT < 1V) as
shown in Figure 2.

RT9712
The junction temperature of the RT9712 series depend
on several factors such as the load, PCB layout, ambient
temperature and package type. The output pin of
RT9712A/B/C/D can deliver the current of up to 1.5A
(RT9712A/B), and 0.6A (RT9712C/D) respectively over the
full operating junction temperature range. However, the
maximum output current must be derated at higher
ambient temperature to ensure the junction temperature
does not exceed 100°C. With all possible conditions, the
junction temperature must be within the range specified
under operating conditions. Power dissipation can be
calculated based on the output current and the RDS(ON) of
switch as below.
The maximum power dissipation depends on the operating
ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal
resistance, θJA. The derating curve in Figure 3 allows the
designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature
on the maximum power dissipation.

PD = RDS(ON) x IOUT2
Although the devices are rated for 1.5A and 0.6A of output
current, but the application may limit the amount of output
current based on the total power dissipation and the
ambient temperature.
For continuous operation, do not exceed absolute
maximum operation junction temperature. The maximum
power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of
IC package, PCB layout, the rate of surroundings airflow
and temperature difference between junction to ambient.
The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by
following formula :
PD(MAX) = ( TJ(MAX) − TA ) / θJA
Where T J(MAX) is the maximum operation junction
temperature 100°C, TA is the ambient temperature and
the θJA is the junction to ambient thermal resistance.
For recommended operating conditions specification,
where TJ(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature of the
die (100°C) and TA is the maximum ambient temperature.
The junction to ambient thermal resistance θJA is layout
dependent. For SOP-8 and MSOP-8 packages, the thermal
resistance θ JA is 160°C/W. The maximum power
dissipation at TA = 25°C can be calculated by following
formula :
PD(MAX) = (100°C − 25°C) / (160°C/W) = 0.469W for
SOP-8 and MSOP-8 packages

Layout Consideration
For best performance of the RT9712 series, the following
guidelines must be strictly followed.
`
Input and output capacitors should be placed close to
the IC and connected to ground plane to reduce noise
coupling.
`
The GND should be connected to a strong ground plane
for heat sink.
`
Keep the main current traces as possible as short and
wide.
The input and output capacitors should
be placed as close as possible to the IC.
