TPS2521
SLVSFX8 – MARCH 2021
TPS2521xx, 2.7 - 5.7 V, 4 A, 31-mΩ True Reverse Current Blocking eFuse with Input
Reverse Polarity Protection
blocked at all times, making the device well suited for
systems which need load side energy hold up storage
1 Features
•
•
•
•
Wide operating input voltage range: 2.7 V to 5.7 V
28-V absolute maximum
Withstands negative voltages up to – 15 V
Integrated back-to-back FETs with low On-
Resistance: RON = 31 mΩ (typ)
Ideal diode operation with true reverse current
blocking
Fast overvoltage clamp (OVC) with pin-selectable
threshold (3.8 V, 5.7 V) with 5-μs (typ) response
time
Overcurrent protection with load current monitor
output (ILM)
– Active current limit response
– Adjustable threshold (ILIM) 0.5 A - 4.44 A
in case input power supply fails.
Output current limit level can be set with a single
external resistor. It is also possible to get an accurate
sense of the output load current by measuring the
voltage drop across the current limit resistor.

Applications
with
particular
inrush
current
requirements can set the output slew rate with a
single external capacitor. Loads are protected from
input overvoltage conditions by clamping the output to
a safe fixed maximum voltage (pin selectable).
•
The devices are available in a 2-mm × 2-mm,
10-pin HotRod QFN package for improved thermal
performance and reduced system footprint.
•
±10% accuracy for ILIM > 1 A
The devices are characterized for operation over a
junction temperature range of –40°C to +125°C.
– Adjustable transient blanking timer (ITIMER) to
allow peak currents up to 2 x ILIM
– Output load current monitor accuracy: ±6%
(IOUT ≥ 1 A)

3 Description
The TPS2521x family of eFuses is a highly integrated
circuit protection and power management solution
in a small package. The devices provide multiple
protection modes using very few external components
and are
a
robust defense against overloads,
short-circuits, voltage surges, reverse polarity and
excessive inrush current. With integrated back-to-
back FETs, reverse current flow from output to input is
