Texas Instruments TPS20xxE Power-Distribution Switches
Texas Instruments TPS20xxE Power-Distribution Switches are intended for applications such as USB, where heavy capacitive loads and short circuits are likely to be encountered. These devices offer fixed current-limit thresholds for applications requiring 1.5A or 2A loading, with options between high or low enable polarization in different packages.
The Texas Instruments TPS20xxE family limits the output current to a safe level by operating in a constant-current mode when the output load exceeds the current limit threshold. This feature provides a predictable fault current under all conditions. The fast overload response time eases the burden on the 2.7V to 5.5V supply to provide regulated power when the output is shorted. The power switch rise and fall times are controlled to minimize current surges during turn-on and turn-off.
