Fault Blanking
When the switch current reaches the current limit, the part Applications operates in a constant-current mode to prohibit excessive currents from causing damage. For the FPF2500, FPF2501,
FPF2503 and FPF2505, if the constant current condition still

persists after 5ms, these parts will shut off the switch and, for Cell Phones the FPF2503 and FPF2505, the fault signal pin (FLAGB) will be pulled low. The FPF2500, FPF2503, and FPF2505, have an

auto-restart feature which will turn the switch on again after 640ms if the ON pin is still active. The FPF2501 does not have this auto-restart feature so the switch will remain off until the ON pin is cycled. For the FPF2502, FPF2504 and FPF2506, a current limit condition will immediately pull the fault signal pin low and the part will remain in the constant-current mode until the switch current falls below the current limit. For the FPF2500 through FPF2502, the minimum current limit is adjustable from 500m A to 2A. For the FPF2503 and FPF2504 the minimum current is internally fixed at 400m A while that for the FPF2505 and FPF2506 is internally fixed at 800m A.
These parts are available in a space-saving 5 pin SOT23 package.
