3 Description

The TPS22941/2/3/4/5 load switches provide

protection to systems and loads in high-current conditions. The devices contain a 0.4-Ω current-

limited P-channel MOSFET that can operate over an

input voltage range of 1.62 V to 5.5 V. Current is

prevented from flowing when the MOSFET is off. The

switch is controlled by an on/off input (ON), which is

capable of interfacing directly with low-voltage control

signals. The TPS22941/2/3/4/5 includes thermal

shutdown protection that prevents damage to the

device when a continuous over-current condition

causes excessive heating by turning off the switch.

These devices provide an integrated, robust solution

to provide current limiting the output current to a safe

level by switching into a constant-current mode when

the ouptut load exceeds the current-limit threshold.

The OC logic output asserts low during overcurrent, undervoltage, or overtemperature conditions. These

additional features make the TPS22941/2/3/4/5 an

ideal solution for applications where current limiting is

necessary.

This family of devices are available in a SC70-5

(DCK) package. It is characterized for operation over

the free-air temperature range of –40°C to 85°C.
