Product details
Overview
TPS2041BDBVT from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, current-limited power-distribution switch featuring a 70mΩ high-side N-channel MOSFET, 500mA continuous output current, thermal and short-circuit protection, and operation from 2.7V to 5.5V. It serves as a smart load switch in USB-powered peripherals and embedded systems requiring controlled power sequencing and inrush current limiting.
For engineers reviewing the TPS2041BDBVT datasheet, TPS2041BDBVT pinout, TPS2041BDBVT application, or TPS2041BDBVT equivalent, key selection criteria include its accurate 0.75A–1.25A current-limit threshold, 0.6ms typical rise time, 1μA standby supply current, undervoltage lockout (2.0–2.6V), and SOT-23-5 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The TPS2041BDBVT integrates an internal charge pump to drive the high-side MOSFET gate, enabling full enhancement down to 2.7V input without external components. Its constant-current limiting mode activates when load current exceeds the trip threshold, pulling the open-drain OC pin low to signal fault conditions.
Thermal shutdown engages at 135°C junction temperature and recovers automatically at 125°C with 10°C hysteresis. The deglitched OC output prevents false triggering during power-up and transient events, with a 4–15ms deglitch window confirmed across operating conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Continuous Output Current | 500 mA - maximum sustained load current before thermal or current-limit activation |
| Current-Limit Threshold | 0.75 A min / 1.25 A max - ensures robust short-circuit protection across temperature and voltage |
| rDS(on) | 70 mΩ (typ) at 5 V - low conduction loss enables <150 mW dissipation at 500 mA |
| Rise Time | 0.6 ms (typ) at 5.5 V - controls inrush surge into heavy capacitive loads (e.g., 100 µF) |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - supports USB 2.0/3.0 bus, Li-ion battery, and 3.3 V/5 V logic domains |
| Standby Supply Current | 1 μA - enables ultra-low-power system sleep states without compromising switch readiness |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C ambient - qualified for industrial and consumer-grade embedded applications |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar power-distribution switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS2051BDBVT | Same SOT-23-5 package and pinout; active-high EN but identical current limit (0.75–1.25 A), rDS(on) (95–140 mΩ), and UVLO (2.0–2.6 V) | Designed for ganged multi-switch configurations with shared OC reporting; not intended for standalone use | Select TPS2051BDBVT only if coordinating multiple switches under common fault management |
| AP2171SG-13 | 500 mA rating, 120 mΩ rDS(on), 2.7–5.5 V range, but lacks deglitched OC output and UL recognition | Targeted at cost-sensitive consumer electronics where safety certification and noise immunity are secondary | Choose AP2171SG-13 for non-safety-critical, high-volume applications where BOM cost outweighs diagnostic reliability |
Compared with TPS2041BDBVT, TPS2051BDBVT offers identical packaging and electrical specs but adds ganged-control capability at the expense of standalone simplicity, while AP2171SG-13 trades diagnostic robustness and safety compliance for lower unit cost.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current rating for the TPS2041BDBVT?
The TPS2041BDBVT is rated for 500 mA continuous output current under recommended operating conditions (–40°C to +85°C ambient, 2.7 V to 5.5 V input). This rating reflects sustained conduction capability before thermal shutdown or current-limit activation occurs. Exceeding this value triggers constant-current limiting, with actual trip threshold ranging from 0.75 A to 1.25 A depending on junction temperature and input voltage.
Does the TPS2041BDBVT require external components for gate drive or fault filtering?
No, the TPS2041BDBVT integrates a charge pump for high-side MOSFET gate drive and internal deglitching for the OC output-both functions operate without external components. A 0.1 µF bypass capacitor on IN is recommended per TI layout guidelines, but no gate resistors, pull-ups, or RC filters are required for basic operation or noise immunity.
How does the undervoltage lockout (UVLO) function in the TPS2041BDBVT?
The TPS2041BDBVT disables the power switch when input voltage falls below 2.0 V (rising threshold) or 2.6 V (falling threshold), with 75 mV hysteresis. This prevents erratic switching near minimum supply levels and ensures clean turn-on/turn-off behavior. UVLO is fully internal-no external resistor divider or configuration is needed.
Can the TPS2041BDBVT be used in battery-powered applications with strict quiescent current requirements?
Yes-the TPS2041BDBVT draws only 1 μA of supply current when disabled (EN = low), making it suitable for battery-backed systems requiring ultra-low standby power. This specification is guaranteed across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature and applies regardless of input voltage within the 2.7–5.5 V range.
Is the TPS2041BDBVT UL-recognized, and what does that mean for end-equipment certification?
Yes, the TPS2041BDBVT carries UL Recognition under File E169910 per UL 60950-1. This means the device itself has been evaluated for safety-reducing the burden on end-equipment designers to validate internal power-switching components. It supports faster system-level certification when used in IT equipment, medical peripherals, or industrial controllers.
