Analog Switches | FSA831A

The FSA831A is a charger-detection IC with an integrated isolation switch for use with a micro/mini USB port. The FSA831A detects battery chargers and is compliant with USB Battery Charging Specification, Rev 1.2 (BC1.2). The algorithm incorporates Data Contact Detection (DCD), which ensures that the shorter, inner pins of the USB connector are making contact prior to continuing with battery charger detection. The device determines if a Dedicated Charging Port (DCP), Charging Downstream Port (CDP), or a typical PC host, called a Standard Downstream Port (SDP), is connected. If a charger is detected, the FSA831A determines whether the charger is a DCP or CDP. For SDP and CDP detection, an internal isolation switch is closed to connect the D+/D- lines of the USB cable to the resident USB transceiver within the portable device. The FSA831A conforms to all the constraints for the Dead Battery Provision (DBP) within the BC1.2 specification, including a 30-minute timer that cannot exceed 45 minutes, per BC1.2.
