3 Description
•

•
•
±50-V operating voltage, ±55-V absolute maximum
Integrated fixed bipolar 30-mA (±15%) current limit
Allows 2x current limit at startup
50% space savings compared to a typical discrete
protection circuit
The TPS2661x is a compact, feature rich, fully
integrated current loop protector suitable for analog
inputs, analog outputs, sensor transmitters, HART
Inputs and UART IO protection. It provides Universal
Input protection for ±20 mA, 0 to 20 mA, 4-20 mA.
Low RON of 7.5 Ω minimizes drop in the current loop,
thereby extending operating range and supporting
operation even with lower voltage power supplies.
The device can withstand and protect the loads from
positive and negative supply voltages up to ±50 V.
The MODE pin allows flexibility to enable 2x current
limit through the device to enable proper startup of
two wire transmitters. Device is capable of operating
from an external bipolar supply as low as ± 2.5 V to
±20 V. It can also be powered from unipolar supplies
as low as 3 V to 30 V. In case the external bias supply
(+Vs) is down, the device intelligently switches from
external supply to loop supply in TPS26610 variant,
thereby not breaking the loop in redundant systems.

Low R-on: 7.5-Ω typical
Low Iq (< 100 nA) - current drawn from loop when
powered from external supply
Protection against mis-wiring conditions on IN and
OUT
Protection during signal line surge IEC61000-4-5
(with external TVS)
Criteria-A EFT (IEC61000-4-4) immunity (with
external TVS)
Supports loop testing without supply (TPS26610
only)

The device also protects the system from output side
miswiring in Analog Outputs and sensor transmitters
by turning off the current path when potential on OUT
pin exceeds the supply rails. The internal robust
protection control blocks along with the 50-V rating of
the TPS2661x helps to protect against surge
(IEC61000-4-5) and EFT (IEC61000-4-4) transients
for signal lines. The device greatly reduces system
footprint by its 2.9 mm × 1.6 mm 8-pin SOT-23
package.
