TPS2320IPWRG4

Hot Swap Controllers Overview

The TPS2320IPWRG4 is a dual-channel hot swap voltage controller manufactured by Texas Instruments. It supports input supply voltages from 3 V to 13 V and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The device features two independent channels with integrated circuit breakers, housed in a 16-pin TSSOP package. It draws a maximum operating supply current of 1 mA.

Hot Swap Controllers Feature Summary

• Dual-channel architecture with independent circuit breaker functionality for each channel
• Integrated protection against overcurrent, short circuits, and thermal events
• Supports positive voltage hot swapping for N-channel MOSFETs

Hot Swap Controllers Applications

• Peripheral board insertion systems requiring controlled power-up
• Backplane expansion cards needing safe insertion and removal
• Industrial equipment modules requiring redundant or isolated power paths

Hot Swap Controllers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., IPWR vs. IPW) to confirm tape-and-reel versus tube packaging. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required package style and environmental rating for your assembly process.

Hot Swap Controllers Selection Notes

Select this component when dual independent power rails require synchronized or separate hot swap control. It is suitable for applications demanding precise current limiting and fault isolation between channels. Consider the TSSOP-16 footprint constraints and thermal dissipation requirements during PCB layout.

Hot Swap Controllers Part Context

This part belongs to the TPS2320 family of dual hot swap controllers. It serves as a robust solution for managing power delivery to sensitive electronics during live insertion. The design simplifies system reliability by preventing bus collapse and ensuring orderly power sequencing.

Hot Swap Controllers Replacement Considerations

The TPS2320IPW is a compatible variant differing primarily in packaging format. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution. Ensure the alternative meets the same voltage and current ratings for the target application.
