Vishay / Siliconix Smart Load Switches
Vishay Smart Load Switches are integrated low-resistance power switches with optimized features. The Smart Load Switch family provides improved controllability, safety and compact sizes in designs for power distribution, sequencing and protection. These load switches can be used to distribute the power from the DC/DC converter and sequence it in the appropriate order, reducing the board space required.
