Silego Announces a 130 V Surge-protected, 28 V Tolerant, USB Type C Integrated Power Splitter/Switch in WLCSP

Any integrated circuit (IC) product designed for consumer electronics and operating in the vicinity of edge connectors must be tolerant of electrical surges and abuses caused by an incorrect application of power adapters. In these applications, system-level, over-voltage protection (OVP) has become a standard requirement. The SLG59H1302C's 130 V surge protection rating is 30% stronger than the competition and its 20-nanosecond reaction time to OVP events is at least seven times faster. Its faster OVP response time protects sensitive downstream components from possible damage. Even though designed to operate with 5 V, 9 V, or 12 V power adapters, the SLG59H1302C does not suffer damage even if 20 V power adapters are mistakenly used.

In applying Silego's proprietary MOSFET design IP, the Company's design engineers deftly packaged two high-performance nFET transistors into a pcb-space-efficient 5 mm² WLCSP footprint no larger than the competition. In fact, the SLG59H1302C's VBUS-to-VOUT RDSON is 47% smaller, and its VBUS-to-VSYS RDSON is 31% smaller than existing solutions. Because of these high-performance nFETs, the SLG59H1302C's very low operating thermal gradients enable higher component packing density and ease system thermal design.

SLG59H1302C's key features include:

• 28V-tolerant Continuous VBUS Operation

About Silego – The CMIC Company

Silego is a fabless semiconductor company that creates, designs, and sells configurable mixed-signal integrated circuits, or CMICs, leading a paradigm shift in the way that hardware engineers design their systems. Silego's CMICs integrate analog, digital logic, and mixed-signal circuit blocks into various programmable products that are optimized for specific functions relating to power, timing, or interface. Each product variant of Silego's CMICs eliminates multiple passive and discrete components that had previously provided such functionality. Silego's CMICs enable original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, in high-volume applications to cost-effectively deliver their hardware products to market faster and with greater design flexibility. Silego's scalable CMIC platform is comprised of its configurable ICs, its proprietary design software, and its development kits. Silego's solution consists of its proprietary CMIC platform and its delivery model, which includes its interactive design support, rapid prototyping of customer designs and flexible, cost-optimized manufacturing. Silego's solution provides its customers with various CMICs that are optimized to address power, timing, or interface functions in their systems.
