PORT POWER CONTROL USING A POLY FUSE

When using the USB82642 with a poly fuse, an external diode must be used (see Figure 5-2). When disabling port

power, the USB82642 driver will drive a 0. This procedure will have no effect since the external diode will isolate the pin

from the load. When port power is enabled, the USB82642 output driver is disabled, and the pull-up resistor is enabled

which creates an open drain output. This means that the pull-up resistor is providing 3.3 V to the anode of the diode. If

there is an over-current situation, the poly fuse will open. This will cause the cathode of the diode to go to zero volts.

The anode of the diode will be at 0.7 V, and the Schmitt trigger input will register this as a low resulting in an over-current

detection. The open drain output does not interfere.

When using a single poly fuse to power all devices, note that for the ganged situation, all power control pins must be

tied together.
