The XRP2524 is a dual-channel integrated high-side power distribution switch optimized for self or bus-powered USB applications and is compliant with the latest USB 3.0 specification. It accepts an input voltage between 2.7V and 6.5V allowing for operations from industry standard 3.3V and 5V power rails.

The XRP2524 is provided with an enable pin while an error flag is available to indicate fault conditions. With a low quiescent current as well as a small package, the XRP2524 is ideal for battery powered applications. The power-switch rise and fall times are controlled to minimize current surges during turn on/off.

Built-in over current, reverse current and over temperature protections insure safe operations under abnormal operating conditions.

The XRP2524 is offered in a RoHS compliant green/halogen free 8-pin NSOIC package.

Distribution Date Description File
07/17/2023 In 2023, MaxLinear will be converting all shipping labels for the parts noted from an EXAR format to MaxLinear’s label. During this transition customers may receive either label. This change affects only shipping and packing labels. This change will not affect the part number, part marking, manufacturing process or manufacturing sites. Only work in progress material will be converted. Existing inventory from MaxLinear’s warehouse, channel sales, distributor, and such, will not be converted. Hence, customers may experience receiving mixed shipments with both Exar and MaxLinear labels for some period until existing inventory of old labels is eventually cleared out. Situation is product to product with no predictable way to determine when all old labels will be exhausted. No change to product form, fit, function and reliability. ADDENDUM A: Fixed MBB label logo for DX204001 to MaxLinear logo. ADDENDUM B: Replaced ‘All other affected products outer box label’ with clearer pictures. Corrected Date Issued (from original PCN) issue date +90 days to August 30, 2023.
