3 Description

The TPS25984x is an integrated, high-current circuit

protection and power management solution in a small

package. The device provides multiple protection

modes using very few external components and is a

robust defense against overloads, short circuits, and

excessive inrush current.

Applications with particular inrush current

requirements can set the output slew rate with a

single external capacitor. Output current limit level

can be set by user as per system needs. A user

adjustable overcurrent blanking timer allows systems

to support transient peaks in the load current without

tripping the eFuse.
