TPS259251DRCR -- Electronic Fuse Regulator
The TPS259251DRCR is a highly integrated circuit protection and power management solution manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features a 4.5-V to 5.5-V input voltage range and is designed to provide multiple protection modes in a compact 10-pin VSON package. The device integrates a 30-mΩ pass MOSFET and offers adjustable current limiting with ±15% accuracy. It also includes features such as programmable output slew rate, under-voltage lockout (UVLO), and built-in thermal shutdown for enhanced reliability.
The TPS259251DRCR is equipped with advanced protection mechanisms, including over-voltage clamping to a fixed 6.1-V level, short-circuit protection, and inrush current control. The current limit level can be easily set with a single external resistor, and the device supports both auto-retry and latch-off fault response modes. Additionally, it meets UL 2367 and UL 60950 safety standards, ensuring safe operation during single-point failures.
The TPS259251DRCR is widely used in applications requiring robust power protection and efficient power management. Typical applications include hard disk drives, solid-state drives, set-top boxes, servers, auxiliary power supplies, PCI and PCIe cards, and adapter-powered devices. Its small footprint and minimal external components make it ideal for space-constrained designs.
Selecting the TPS259251DRCR offers several advantages. Its high level of integration reduces the need for external components, saving board space and simplifying design. The device's ability to handle high inrush currents and provide precise current limiting enhances system reliability. Additionally, its thermal shutdown and auto-retry features ensure safe operation under fault conditions. The TPS259251DRCR is RoHS compliant and operates over an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
