USB Power Controller
Advance Information
General Description
The MIC2012 is a dual channel USB power switch designed
to support the power distribution requirements for USB Wakeup
from the ACPI S3 state. The MIC2012 will directly switch its
two outputs between a 5V main supply and a 5V auxiliary
supply normally provided in ATX style power supplies.
The MIC2012 will adjust its current-limit threshold according
to the ACPI state it is in. In the normal active S0 state the
current-limit is set at 500mA minimum per channel satisfying
the USB continuous output current specification. In the S3
state the current-limit can be reduced to only 100mA per
channel to minimize the current that is supplied by the
auxiliary supply thereby ensuring that voltage regulation is
maintained even during fault conditions.
The MIC2012 provides make-before-break switching to en-
sure glitch-free transitions between the S3 and S0 states.
Each channel is also thermally isolated from the other so that
a fault in one channel does not effect the other. FAULT status
output signals are also provided indicating overcurrent and
thermal shutdown conditions.
The MIC2072 option latches the output off upon detecting an
overcurrent condition for more than 5ms minimum. The
output can be reset by either toggling the EN inputs of the
MIC2072-1, -2 or by removing the load. Latching the output
off provides a circuit breaker mode of operation which re-
duces power consumption during fault conditions.

Functional Description
The MIC2012/2072 are designed to support the power distri-
bution requirements for USB wakeup from the ACPI S3 state.
It integrates two independent channels under control of input
S3#. When S3# is asserted LOW (S3 state) the MIC2012/
2072 will switch a 500m, 100mA MOSFET switch from the
AUX input to each of its two outputs. Conversely when the
S3# input is HIGH (S0 state) the MIC2012/72 will switch a
100m, 500mA MOSFET switch from the MAIN input to each
of its two outputs. The lower current limit during the ACPI S3
state helps to ensure that the standby supply maintains
regulation even during fault conditions.
Thermal Shutdown
Thermal shutdown is employed to protect the device from
damage should the die temperature exceed safe margins
due mainly to short circuit faults. Thermal shutdown shuts off
the output MOSFET and asserts the FAULT output if the die
temperature reaches 140°C and the overheated channel is in
current limit. The other channel is not affected. If, however,
the die temperature exceeds 160°C, both channels will be
shut off even if neither channel is in current limit.
Power Dissipation
The devices junction temperature depends on several fac-
tors such as the load, PCB layout, ambient temperature and
package type. The power dissipated in each channel is
PD = RDS(on) × IOUT2 where RDS(on) is the on-resistance of the
internal MOSFETs and IOUT is the continuous output current.
Total power dissipation of the device will be the summation of
PD for both channels. To relate this to junction temperature,
the following equation can be used:
TJ = PD × θJA + TA
where:

Current Sensing and Limiting
The current-limit thresholds are preset internally for each
state. The preset level prevents damage to the device and
external load but still allows a minimum current of 100mA or
500mA to be delivered to the load depending on the state of
the device according to the S3# input. When S3# is LOW the
current-limit is set at 100mA minimum. When S3# is HIGH the
current-limit is set at 500mA minimum.
Should an over-current condition last longer than tDLY, the
MIC2072 will latch the faulty output off. The output will remain
off until either the load is removed or the EN signal (MIC2072-
1, -2) is toggled. When the MIC2072 enters a latched output
condition a 1mA pull-up current source is activated. This
provides a way to automatically reset the output once the load
is removed without the need to toggle the enable input such
as in the MIC2072. Please refer to Figure 7 for timing details.
The MIC2012 will automatically reset its output when the die
temperature cools down to 120°C. The MIC2012 output and
FAULT signal will continue to cycle on and off until the device
is disabled or the fault is removed. Figure 6 depicts typical
timing. Depending on PCB layout, package, ambient tem-
perature, etc., it may take several hundred milliseconds from
the incidence of the fault to the output MOSFET being shut
off. This time duration will be shortest in the case of a dead
short on the output.

Fault Status Output
The FAULT signal is an active-low output with an open-drain
or weak pull-up configuration. FAULT is asserted (active-low)
when either an overcurrent or thermal shutdown condition
occurs. In the case of an overcurrent condition, FAULT will be
asserted only after the flag response delay time, tDLY, has
elapsed. This ensures that FAULT is asserted only upon valid
overcurrent conditions and that erroneous error reporting is
eliminated. For example, false overcurrent conditions can
occur during hot-plug events when a highly capacitive load is
connected and causes a high transient inrush current that
exceeds the current-limit threshold. The FAULT response
delay time tDLY is typically 10ms.
Undervoltage Lockout
Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) prevents the output MOSFET
from turning on until the AUX input exceeds approximately
3.5V. UVLO ensures that the output MOSFETs remain off to
prevent high transient inrush current due to stray or bulk load
capacitance. This helps to ensure that the power supply
voltage regulation is preserved and also prevents possible
damage to sensitive components.
