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
