The 53248-102 is a 28 VDC Solid State High Side Power Controller (SSPC) that is designed to replace electromagnetic circuit breakers rated at up to 10 amperes. It is a high side switch utilizing N-channel vertical power FET technology with integral charge pump. The SSPC provides a status output that signals a variety of conditions including over temperature shutdown, overvoltage or undervoltage, over-current or short circuit. It will trip off and latch for any of the above conditions until reset by recycling of the control input. Using vertical MOSFET technology, the SSPC offers extremely low "ON" resistance. This results in very low power dissipation, which allows operation over the temperature range of 40C to +85C with minimal heat sinking.
