The TPS25947xx family of eFuses is a highly
integrated circuit protection and power management solution in a small package. The
devices provide multiple protection modes using very 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 an excellent
choice for power MUX/ORing applications as well as systems which need load side
energy hold up storage in case input power supply fails. The devices use linear
ORing based scheme to establish an almost zero DC reverse current and emulate ideal
diode behavior with minimum forward voltage drop and power dissipation.
Output slew rate and inrush current can be
adjusted using an external capacitor. Loads are protected from input overvoltage
conditions either by clamping the output to a safe fixed maximum voltage (pin
selectable), or by cutting off the output if input exceeds an adjustable overvoltage
threshold. The devices respond to output overload by actively limiting the current
or breaking the circuit. 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 2mm × 2mm, 10-pin
HotRod™ QFN package for improved thermal
performance and reduced system footprint.
The devices are characterized for operation over a
junction temperature range from –40°C to +125°C.
