DESCRIPTION
The TPS2492 and TPS2493 are easy-to-use, positive
high voltage, 14-pin Hotswap Controllers that safely
drive an external N-channel FET to control load
current. The programmable power foldback protection
ensures that the external FET operates inside its safe
operating area (SOA) during overload conditions by
controlling of power dissipation. The programmable
current limit and fault timer ensure the supply,
external FET, and load are not harmed by
overcurrent. Features include inrush current limiting,
controlled load turn-on, interfacing to down-stream
DC-to-DC converters, and power feed protection.
The analog current monitor output provides a signal
ready for sampling with an external A/D converter.
Additional features include programmable overvoltage
and undervoltage shutdown, power-good for
coordinating loads with inrush, and a fault indicator to
indicate an over-current shutdown.
