3 Description
The TPS22981 device is a current-limited power mux providing a connection to a peripheral device from either a low-
voltage supply (3 V to 3.6 V) or a high
voltage supply (4.5 V to 19.8 V). The desired output is selected by digital control signals.
The high-
voltage (VHV) and low-
voltage (V3P3) switch current limits are set with external resistance. Once the current limit is reached, the TPS22981 will control the switch to maintain the current at this limit.
When the high-
voltage supply is not present, the TPS22981 will maintain the connection to the output from the low-
voltage supply. Upon the presence of a high-
voltage line and high-
voltage enable signal, the high-
voltage switch is turned on in conjunction with the low-
voltage switch until a reverse current...
