The TPS4HC120-Q1 is an automotive quad-channel, smart
high-side switch, with integrated NMOS power FET and charge pump, designed to meet the
requirements of 12V automotive battery systems. The low RON (120mΩ) minimizes the
device power dissipation when driving a wide range of output load current up to 2A when all
four channels are enabled or 3A when only one channel is enabled.
The device integrates protection features
such as thermal shutdown, output clamp, and current limit. These features improve system
robustness during fault events such as short circuit. The TPS4HC120-Q1 implements a selectable current limiting circuit that improves the
reliability of the system by reducing inrush current when driving large capacitive loads and
minimizing overload current. The device offers 10 selectable current limit settings (0.25A
to 4.85A) based on the external resistor used on the ILIM pin. The device also provides an
accurate load current sense that allows for improved load diagnostics such as overload and
open-load detection, which enables better predictive maintenance.
The TPS4HC120-Q1 is available in a 28-pin, 7.1mm × 4.9mm HVSSOP leaded package with 0.5mm pin pitch minimizing the PCB
footprint.
