Use the following instructions to power-up the
TPS259460x and TPS259461x eFuses with capacitive and resistive loads:
- Set Jumper J4 position to desired slew rate as mentioned in Table 4-3.
- Set the input supply voltage VIN to 12 V and current limit of 10 A.
- Connect a load of 5 Ω between VOUT and PGND points of connector J2.
- Connect the input supply between VIN and PGND points of connector J1. Enable the power supply.
- Observe the waveform at VOUT (TP2) and input current with an oscilloscope to measure the slew rate and rise time of the eFuse with a given input voltage of 12 V.
Figure 5-4 shows the startup profile of TPS25946 eFuse with a combination of capacitive and
resistive loads.
