3 Description

The TPS20xxE power-distribution switch family is

intended for applications, such as USB, where heavy

capacitive loads and short circuits are likely to be

encountered. This family offers fixed current-limit

thresholds for applications requiring 1.5-A or 2-A

loading, with options between high or low enable

polarization in different packages.

The 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 provides a predictable fault current

under all conditions. The fast overload response time

eases the burden on the 2.7-V – 5.5-V 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.
