TPS2482PW

Hot Swap Controllers Overview

The TPS2482PW is a 36-V hotswap controller featuring precision I2C power monitoring. It operates within a supply voltage range of 9 V to 36 V and supports a single channel. The device utilizes an external FET with programmable current limiting and includes digital power monitoring capabilities. It functions reliably across an operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, consuming 1 mA of quiescent current. The component is housed in a TSSOP-20 surface-mount package.

Hot Swap Controllers Feature Summary

• Integrates precision I2C interface for accurate digital power monitoring
• Provides programmable current limiting with auto-retry or latch-off fault responses
• Supports external N-channel MOSFET control for high-side protection

Hot Swap Controllers Applications

• Server and storage backplane hot swap applications
• Industrial equipment requiring controlled power insertion
• Telecommunications infrastructure power management

Hot Swap Controllers Procurement Notes

Verify the ordering suffix matches the required packaging configuration. The PW suffix indicates tube packaging, while PWR indicates reel packaging. Confirm that the specific variant aligns with the intended assembly process and inventory requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Hot Swap Controllers Selection Notes

Select this controller when precise digital power monitoring via I2C is required alongside standard hotswap protection. It is suitable for designs needing programmable current limits and robust thermal performance up to 125°C. Ensure the system architecture accommodates the external FET and I2C communication lines for full functionality.

Hot Swap Controllers Part Context

This component belongs to the Texas Instruments TPS248x series of hotswap controllers. It shares architectural similarities with the TPS2483 but differs in fault response behavior. The series is designed for reliable power insertion and removal in systems requiring strict electrical protection and monitoring.

Hot Swap Controllers Replacement Considerations

The TPS2483 is a related device within the same family. While both share similar voltage ratings and packages, the TPS2483 offers fixed current limiting and auto-retry fault response, whereas the TPS2482 provides latch-off options. Verify functional compatibility before substitution.
