3 Description
The TPS22961 is a small, ultra-low RON, single
channel load switch with controlled turn on. The
device contains an N-channel MOSFET that can
operate over an input voltage range of 0.8 V to 3.5 V
and supports a maximum continuous current of 6 A.
The combination of ultra-low RON and high current
capability of the device makes it ideal for driving
processor rails with very tight voltage dropout
tolerances. Quick rise time of the device allows for
power rails to come up quickly when the device is
enabled, thereby reducing response time for power
distribution. The switch can be independently
controlled via the ON terminal, which is capable of
interfacing directly with low-voltage control signals
originating from microcontrollers or low voltage
discrete logic. The device further reduces the total
solution size by integrating a 260 Ω pull-down
transistor for quick output discharge (QOD) when the
switch is turned off.
The TPS22961 is available in a small, space-saving 3
mm x 3 mm 8-SON package (DNY) with integrated
thermal pad allowing for high power dissipation. The
device is characterized for operation over the free-air
temperature range of –40°C to 85°C.
