The device provides the capability to control three separate supplies. There is an on-board 500mA, 2.5V LDO with current limit protection, and drive pins for an N-channel MOSFET and a P-channel MOSFET. Internal logic circuitry ensures that the system starts up in a controlled manner, and that the correct outputs are enabled during specific sequences of BF_CUT and SLP. The LDO draws its power from the 5V standby supply, and the N-channel MOSFET drive is derived from the 12V supply.
