BISS Loadswitches
Combining a BISS transistor with a RET, BISS Loadswitches provide full miniature loadswitch functionality in a single package and deliver best-in-class performance.
Key features
- BISS transistor and RET in one package- Low “threshold” voltage (< 1 V) compared to MOSFET
- Small drive power required
- Best-in-class performance for loadswitches - Available for switching loads of 0.5 – 1 A
Key bene ts
- Integrated on-the-shelve solution for switching loads Saves design and sourcing costs Reduction in boardspace requirements Just one or two external resistors needed for full loadswitch capability
- Combination of low voltage drop and low base drive current BISS transistor in the power path provides the lowest energy-losses RET in the control path provides a low base drive current
Key applications
- Supply line switches, e.g. in control units- Control of lamps, motors and switches, e.g. instrument clusters
- High side switches for drivers
