Product details
Overview
TPS2047AD from Texas Instruments is a triple-channel, current-limited, high-side power-distribution switch with independent enable control per channel, 80-mΩ typical RDS(on), 250 mA continuous per channel, and integrated thermal/overcurrent protection. It operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V and is used in USB-powered peripherals, portable instrumentation, and multi-rail embedded systems for controlled power sequencing and fault isolation.
For engineers reviewing the TPS2047AD datasheet, TPS2047AD pinout, TPS2047AD application, or TPS2047AD equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, SOIC-16 package layout, functional block context, real-world use cases, and validated alternative parts - all grounded in TI's SLVS251C datasheet (Jan 2008).
Technical Context
The TPS2047AD integrates three independent N-channel MOSFET high-side switches, each driven by an internal charge pump enabling full enhancement down to 2.7 V input. Each channel features dedicated ENx inputs (active-low for TPS204xA series), separate GNDA/GNDB grounds, and open-drain OCx outputs that assert low on overcurrent or thermal fault.
Its current-limiting mechanism uses a sense FET (not external resistor) to enter constant-current mode at ~0.5 A short-circuit threshold, while dual-threshold thermal protection (trip at ~140°C, hysteresis ~20°C) isolates only the faulty channel - preserving operation of unaffected outputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Number of channels | Triple independent power switches (IN1/OUT1/OUT2/OC1/OC2; IN2/OUT3/OC3) |
| Continuous current per channel | 250 mA - supports USB-compliant downstream ports and low-power logic rails |
| RDS(on) (typ, 5 V) | 80 mΩ - limits voltage drop to ≤200 mV at 250 mA, reducing heat and improving efficiency |
| Input voltage range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - compatible with Li-ion, USB, and regulated 3.3 V/5 V supplies |
| Enable logic polarity | Active-low (TPS2047A series) - direct interface with microcontroller GPIOs without level-shifting |
| Standby supply current | ≤20 µA (all channels disabled) - enables ultra-low-power system sleep states |
| Thermal shutdown threshold | ~140°C junction temperature - protects against sustained overload without PCB-level fusing |
Pinout & Package
TPS2047AD is housed in a 16-pin SOIC (D) package with exposed pad (not thermally enhanced per datasheet), 1.27 mm pitch, and standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint. Pin numbering follows top-view orientation with pin 1 at bottom-left corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GNDA (Pin 1) | Ground reference | Return path for IN1, OUT1, OUT2, OC1, OC2 - must be routed separately from GNDB for noise isolation |
| IN1 (Pin 2) | Power input | Main supply for first two channels (OUT1/OUT2); accepts 2.7–5.5 V |
| EN1 (Pin 3) | Enable input | Active-low control for IN1→OUT1 path; TTL/CMOS-compatible |
| EN2 (Pin 4) | Enable input | Active-low control for IN1→OUT2 path; independent of EN1 |
| GNDB (Pin 5) | Ground reference | Return path for IN2, OUT3, OC3 - separates second channel ground to prevent crosstalk |
| IN2 (Pin 6) | Power input | Independent supply rail for third channel (OUT3); enables dual-input power domain management |
| EN3 (Pin 7) | Enable input | Active-low control for IN2→OUT3 path; fully isolated from IN1-domain controls |
| NC (Pins 8,9,10) | No connection | Unbonded die pads - must remain unconnected and unstubbed on PCB |
| OC1 (Pin 16) | Open-drain output | Asserts low on overcurrent/thermal fault for OUT1; requires external pull-up (e.g., 10 kΩ to 3.3 V) |
| OUT1 (Pin 15) | Switched output | High-side switched output for channel 1; connects to load after current limiting |
| OUT2 (Pin 14) | Switched output | High-side switched output for channel 2; shares IN1 but has independent EN2/OC2 |
| OC2 (Pin 13) | Open-drain output | Asserts low on fault for OUT2; electrically isolated from OC1/OC3 signals |
| OC3 (Pin 12) | Open-drain output | Asserts low on fault for OUT3; provides per-channel fault visibility in multi-load systems |
| OUT3 (Pin 11) | Switched output | High-side output for channel 3, powered from IN2 - enables independent rail control |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Independent thermal shutdown per channel | Prevents single-point failure: only the overloaded channel shuts down, maintaining power to other loads |
| Charge-pump gate drive | Enables full N-MOSFET enhancement from 2.7 V input - eliminates need for external boost circuitry |
| 2.5-ms typical rise time (CL = 1 µF) | Controls inrush current into large capacitive loads (e.g., USB devices), reducing EMI and input rail droop |
| Undervoltage lockout (~2 V) | Blocks switching below safe operating voltage, preventing erratic behavior during brownout or startup |
| ESD protection (2 kV HBM) | Reduces need for external TVS diodes in handheld or field-deployable equipment interfaces |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side power-switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS2057AD | Same pinout and package, but active-high enable inputs (ENx logic inverted vs. TPS2047AD) | Requires inverted control signal timing; unsuitable where firmware relies on active-low assertion | Select when MCU GPIOs are reserved or when active-high logic simplifies system-level state machines |
| TPS2048AD | Quad-channel version (4 switches) in same SOIC-16 package; adds fourth OUT4/OC4 pair and EN4 | Supports one additional load; occupies identical board area but increases BOM cost if only three channels needed | Choose when future expansion or fourth load (e.g., auxiliary indicator LED) is planned - avoids redesign |
Compared with TPS2057AD and TPS2048AD, the TPS2047AD offers optimal channel count and active-low enable compatibility for systems requiring precise, low-overhead per-port control without logic inversion or unused channels.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous current per channel for the TPS2047AD?
The TPS2047AD supports 250 mA continuous current per channel under recommended operating conditions (TA ≤ 85°C, VIN = 2.7–5.5 V). This rating is maintained across all three channels simultaneously when thermal design allows - peak short-circuit current is ~0.5 A before current limiting engages. The device enters constant-current mode rather than shutting down immediately, preserving system uptime during transient overloads.
Does the TPS2047AD require external components for basic operation?
Yes - the TPS2047AD requires at minimum a 0.1-µF ceramic bypass capacitor between INx and GND (per input rail), and pull-up resistors (e.g., 10 kΩ) on each OCx output. For heavy capacitive loads (>100 µF), a bulk electrolytic capacitor (e.g., 22–220 µF) on each OUTx is recommended to suppress inrush transients. No external charge pump or gate driver components are needed - the internal charge pump operates autonomously from 2.7 V.
How does thermal protection work on the TPS2047AD?
The TPS2047AD implements per-channel thermal sensing with a trip point near 140°C junction temperature. When triggered, only the affected channel shuts off - adjacent channels remain operational. Recovery is automatic after ~20°C cooldown (hysteresis). This selective shutdown prevents cascading failures in multi-load systems. The OCx pin asserts low during both overcurrent and thermal events, requiring external logic or MCU polling to distinguish root cause.
Can the TPS2047AD be used with 3.3 V logic control signals?
Yes - the ENx inputs are CMOS- and TTL-compatible, accepting logic-high thresholds as low as 2.0 V (min) and logic-low thresholds up to 0.4 V (max) across the full 2.7–5.5 V input range. A 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO can directly drive EN1–EN3 without level shifting. Note: ENx is active-low for the TPS2047AD, so a 3.3 V signal disables the channel, and 0 V enables it.
What is the purpose of separate GNDA and GNDB pins on the TPS2047AD?
GNDA (Pin 1) serves as the return path for the IN1 domain (OUT1, OUT2, OC1, OC2), while GNDB (Pin 5) returns the IN2 domain (OUT3, OC3). This separation minimizes ground-bounce coupling and noise injection between the two independent power domains - critical when driving mixed-signal loads (e.g., analog sensors on OUT3, digital peripherals on OUT1/OUT2). Routing GNDA and GNDB to separate PCB ground planes or star points improves EMC performance.
