Dual 12 V Protection and Blocking Control
Independent Current Limit and Fast Trip
Blocking Permits ORing of Multiple Inputs
Power Good and Fault Outputs
The TPS2456 is a dual, 12 V, channel protection
(hotswap) and blocking (ORing) controller that
provides inrush control, current limiting, overload
protection, and reverse current blocking. The current
sense topology provides both accurate current limits
and independent setting of current limit and fast trip
thresholds.
Analog Current Monitor Outputs
-40°C to 125°C Operating Junction
Temperature
The ORing control uses an external MOSFET to
block reverse current when an input is shorted.
Systems with closely matched supply voltages and
feed networks can supply current from both supplies
simultaneously.

The MONx output provides an accurate analog
indication of load current.
The protection circuits may be used without blocking,
and the blocking may be used without protection.
Internal connections prevent implementation of these
as four fully-independent functions.
