TPS2331IPW

Hot Swap Controllers Overview

The TPS2331IPW is a hot-swap voltage controller manufactured by Texas Instruments, designed for single-channel power distribution applications. It operates within a supply voltage range of 3 V to 13 V and features a TSSOP-14 surface-mount package. The device incorporates programmable current limiting capabilities and maintains a low operating supply current of 5 µA. It is rated for an ambient operating temperature range from -40 °C to +85 °C with a maximum power dissipation of 1.015 W.

Hot Swap Controllers Feature Summary

• Integrated hot-swap control for safe insertion and removal of live circuits
• Programmable current limit protection against overload conditions
• Low quiescent current consumption for energy-efficient operation

Hot Swap Controllers Applications

• Single-slot backplane systems requiring controlled power sequencing
• Peripheral cards in industrial computing environments
• Telecommunications equipment power distribution modules

Hot Swap Controllers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'PW' confirms the TSSOP-14 package variant during procurement. Ensure the component meets RoHS compliance requirements as indicated in official specifications. Confirm that the active-high enable functionality aligns with system logic levels before finalizing orders.

Hot Swap Controllers Selection Notes

Select this controller when designing systems requiring precise thermal management during hot-swap events. The single-channel architecture suits applications needing independent power path control. Evaluate the 13 V maximum input rating against source voltage peaks to ensure adequate headroom for reliable operation under all load conditions.

Hot Swap Controllers Part Context

This component belongs to the TPS23xx family of hot-swap controllers, which provide integrated protection for PCIe and other peripheral bus standards. These devices simplify power distribution design by combining MOSFET drive, current limiting, and fault protection in a compact form factor suitable for dense electronic assemblies.

Hot Swap Controllers Replacement Considerations

Consult official cross-reference data for verified substitutes. Generic replacements may lack identical thermal or electrical characteristics required for hot-swap safety.
