The TPS2224APWP is a high-performance integrated power distribution switch designed by Texas Instruments, tailored for managing power distribution in PC Card applications. This advanced component is part of Texas Instruments' Power Interface products for PC Cards and is housed in a 24-pin HTSSOP (PWP) package.

Key Features

• Dual-Slot Solution: The TPS2224APWP is capable of independently controlling two slots, making it an efficient solution for systems that require multiple PC Card slots.
• Current Limiting: This device provides built-in current limiting to protect the host system and the card from short circuits and excessive power draw.
• Thermal Protection: An integrated thermal protection feature ensures that the device and the system operate within safe temperature limits.
• Under-Voltage Lockout (UVLO): The UVLO feature ensures that the device operates correctly by disabling the output when the input voltage falls below a certain threshold.
• Low On-Resistance: The low on-resistance of the internal FET switch minimizes voltage drop and power dissipation, enhancing the efficiency of the system.
• 12-V Operation: Designed to work with a 12-V power supply, the TPS2224APWP is suitable for a variety of PC Card applications.
