Instructions for TPS2044B

1. Power Supply Connection:

   • Connect the input voltage (VIN) to the power supply within the range of 3.0V to 5.5V.
   • Ensure the output voltage (VOUT) is connected to the load.

2. Current Limiting:

   • The device supports a continuous current of up to 2.5A and peak currents of up to 3.0A for 100 μs pulses.
   • Avoid exceeding these limits to prevent damage to the device.

3. Thermal Management:

   • The thermal shutdown temperature is set at 160°C to protect the device from overheating.
   • Ensure adequate heat dissipation by using a heatsink or placing the device on a PCB with good thermal conductivity.

4. Operating Temperature:

   • The operating temperature range is from -40°C to 85°C.
   • Store the device in an environment between -65°C and 150°C.

5. Turn-On and Turn-Off Times:

   • The turn-on time is approximately 1.0 μs when the input voltage transitions from 0V to 90% of VIN.
   • The turn-off time is also approximately 1.0 μs when the output voltage transitions from VIN to 10% of VIN.

6. Quiescent Current:

   • The quiescent current is typically 60 μA when the input voltage is 5V and the output voltage is 0V.

7. Protection Features:

   • The TPS2044B includes overcurrent protection, short-circuit protection, and thermal shutdown to ensure reliable operation under various conditions.

8. Layout Considerations:

   • Use short and wide traces for power and ground connections to minimize inductance and resistance.
   • Place bypass capacitors close to the input and output pins to filter noise and provide stable operation.

9. Application Notes:

   • Refer to the datasheet for detailed application notes and circuit diagrams to ensure proper integration into your design.
