3 Description

The TPS25948xx family of eFuses is a highly

integrated, circuit-protection and power-management

solution in a small package. The devices provide

multiple protection modes that use few external

components and are a robust defense against

overloads, short-circuits, voltage surges, reverse

polarity, and excessive inrush current. With integrated

back-to-back FETs, reverse current flow from output

to input is blocked at all times, making the devices

well suited for power MUX and ORing applications, as

well as systems that need load side energy hold up

storage if input power supply fails. The devices use a

linear ORing based scheme to ensure almost zero DC

reverse current and emulate ideal diode behavior with

minimum forward voltage drop and power dissipation.

The devices also provide an external pin control

option to disable the reverse current blocking and

allow bi-directional current flow in steady-state.

Output slew rate and inrush current can be adjusted

using a single external capacitor. Loads are protected

from input overvoltage conditions by cutting off the

output if input exceeds an adjustable overvoltage

threshold. The devices respond to output overload by

actively limiting the current. The output current limit

threshold as well as the transient overcurrent blanking

timer are user adjustable. The current limit control pin

also functions as an analog load current monitor.

The devices are available in a 2.4-mm × 1.7-mm, 12-

ball power wafer chip scale package (PowerWCSP)

for improved thermal performance and reduced

system footprint.

The devices are characterized for operation over a

junction temperature range of –40°C to +125°C.
