Fairchild Semiconductor Launches Load Switches for Portable Electronics

(Product News, 14 Mar 2008)

Fairchild Semiconductor has released a series of advanced load switches with multiple slew-rate options that protect circuits from undesirable voltage and current transients. The FPF1007-1009 series, designed to protect applications with capacitive loads, features slew-rate times of 10µs, 80µs and 1ms, thereby ensuring a slower turn-on time, which results in limiting the in-rush current into the applications' capacitive circuit elements.

The FPF1007-1009 series of slew-rate controlled load switches provide designers with system stability over the entire operating range and robust protection from voltage sags and current spikes.
