3 Description

The TPS22950x is a small, single channel load

switch with robust protection against fault cases with

adjustable output current limiting, reverse current

blocking, and thermal shutdown.

The switch ON state is controlled by a digital input

that is capable of interfacing directly with low-voltage

control signals. When power is first applied, a smart

pulldown is used to keep the ON pin from floating

until system sequencing is complete. After the pin is

deliberately driven high (>VIH), the smart pulldown is

disconnected to prevent unnecessary power loss.

The TPS22950/C responds to overcurrent events with

auto-retry behavior, while the TPS22950L uses a

debounce time and latch off behavior.

TPS22950x is available in a standard WCSP package

and leaded SOT package characterized for operation

over an ambient temperature range of –40°C to

125°C.
