Product details
Overview
TPS2220BPWP from Texas Instruments is a 24-pin HTSSOP power-interface switch for single-slot PCMCIA/PC Card systems, integrating independent 3.3 V/5 V/12 V VCC and VPP switching with break-before-make sequencing, 1 A AVCC current limit, 100 mA AVPP current limit, and thermal shutdown at 135°C. It enables compliant power delivery in notebook computers and bar code scanners.
For engineers reviewing the TPS2220BPWP datasheet, TPS2220BPWP pinout, TPS2220BPWP application, or TPS2220BPWP equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-output current-limit architecture, TTL-compatible serial control interface (CLOCK/DATA/LATCH), UVLO thresholds per rail (2.7 V for 3.3 V, 2.5 V for 5 V), and integrated discharge transistors meeting PC Card 100-ms VCC discharge requirement.
Technical Context
The TPS2220BPWP implements a serially controlled logic interface with asynchronous RESET and SHDN inputs, supporting D0–D10 command words to configure individual AVCC/AVPP output states. Its internal charge pump eliminates dependency on external 12-V supply for gate drive, enabling 3.3-V-only operation except when 12-V card power is actively requested.
Each output features dedicated current-sense FETs and thermal monitoring. The AVCC path uses two parallel 5-V input pins (1, 2) and two AVCC output pins (9, 10); AVPP uses single 12-V input (7) and single AVPP output (8). Independent VPP/VCC switching allows simultaneous 3.3-V card power and 12-V flash programming without cross-rail interference.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Configuration | Dual independent switched outputs: AVCC (3.3 V/5 V) and AVPP (3.3 V/5 V/12 V) |
| Current Limit (AVCC) | 1 A typical steady-state short-circuit limit, enabling peak PC Card load compliance |
| Current Limit (AVPP) | 200 mA typical steady-state short-circuit limit, sufficient for 12-V flash programming |

Pinout & Package
TPS2220BPWP is housed in a 24-pin HTSSOP (PWP) package with PowerPAD™ thermal pad, optimized for high-power dissipation (3322 mW at TA = 25°C) and surface-mount assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 - 5V | Input power supply | Parallel 5-V input pins; both must be connected to sustain full 1-A AVCC output capability |
| 7 - 12V | Input power supply | 12-V input for AVPP output; enables flash programming voltage without external regulator |
| 8 - AVPP | Switched output | Delivers 3.3 V, 5 V, or 12 V to PC Card Vpp terminals; supports independent enable/disable vs AVCC |
| 9, 10 - AVCC | Switched output | Parallel 3.3 V/5 V outputs to PC Card Vcc terminals; dual pins reduce trace resistance and voltage drop |
| 11 - GND | Power ground | Main ground reference for all power paths and internal circuitry; connects to thermal pad |
| 12 - RESET | Asynchronous control input | Active-low reset forcing all switches to Hi-Z and discharge transistors ON; internal pullup |
| 13 - 3.3V | Input power supply | Primary 3.3-V supply for chip logic and gate drive; powers internal charge pump |
| 15 - OC | Open-drain fault indicator | Active-low overcurrent flag requiring external pullup; asserts within 10 µs of fault detection |
| 21 - SHDN | Asynchronous control input | Active-low shutdown disabling all outputs and reducing quiescent current to ≤1 µA |
| 3 - DATA 4 - CLOCK 5 - LATCH |
Serial interface inputs | 3-wire TTL-compatible interface accepting 11-bit command word (D0–D10) for precise output control |
| 6, 14, 16–20, 22–24 | No connection | NC pins; must remain unconnected per datasheet to avoid functional interference |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar power-interface switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS2220BDB | Same die in 24-pin SSOP (DB) package; lower power dissipation (890 mW vs 3322 mW), no PowerPAD™ thermal enhancement | Suitable for low-power or space-constrained designs where thermal headroom is adequate; not recommended for continuous 1-A AVCC loads at 85°C ambient | Select TPS2220BDB only if board layout lacks thermal pad area and worst-case power dissipation remains below 489 mW. |
| TPS2220ADB | Legacy A-version with identical pinout but different VPP/VCC independence logic; pin 20 is NC in TPS2220B but functional in TPS2220A | Lacks TPS2220B's enhanced 12-V charge-pump efficiency and has higher 3.3-V quiescent current (200 µA vs 140 µA) | TPS2220ADB is obsolete and unsupported; TPS2220BPWP provides superior battery life and thermal performance for new designs. |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current supported by TPS2220BPWP on the AVPP rail?
The TPS2220BPWP supports a maximum continuous output current of 100 mA on the AVPP rail, with a typical short-circuit current limit of 200 mA. This rating is validated across the full operating temperature range (–40°C to 85°C ambient) and aligns with PC Card requirements for 12-V flash programming loads. Exceeding 100 mA continuously risks thermal shutdown activation due to power dissipation limits in the HTSSOP package.
Does TPS2220BPWP require an external 12-V supply to operate its internal gate drivers?
No, the TPS2220BPWP does not require an external 12-V supply for gate driver operation. It uses an internal charge pump powered from the 3.3-V input (pin 13) to generate necessary gate voltages. The 12-V input (pin 7) is used solely to source current to the AVPP output; when 12-V is present and requested, the charge pump draws drive current from that rail instead of the 3.3-V rail, improving system efficiency.
How does TPS2220BPWP meet the PC Card 100-ms VCC discharge requirement?
The TPS2220BPWP meets the PC Card 100-ms VCC discharge requirement using integrated discharge transistors on both AVCC (pins 9, 10) and AVPP (pin 8) outputs. When RESET or SHDN is asserted, these transistors actively pull outputs to ground, discharging attached capacitive loads to <0.8 V within 100 ms-even with up to 150 µF capacitance-as verified in the datasheet's Figure 19 and Application Information section.
What is the function of pin 20 on the TPS2220BPWP?
Pin 20 on the TPS2220BPWP is a no-connect (NC) terminal with no internal connection. It must remain unconnected in the PCB layout. This differs from the earlier TPS2220A version, where pin 20 serves a functional role; the TPS2220BPWP datasheet explicitly states "NC − No internal connection" for pin 20, confirming its exclusion from all electrical paths.
Can TPS2220BPWP support mixed 3.3-V/5-V PC Card negotiation sequences?
Yes, the TPS2220BPWP supports mixed 3.3-V/5-V PC Card negotiation as defined in the PCMCIA standard. Its independent VPP/VCC control allows the host to first apply 5 V to detect card type, then discharge VCC below 0.8 V using internal transistors before applying 3.3 V-ensuring safe power reset for 3.3-V-only cards. UVLO thresholds (2.7 V on 3.3V pin, 2.5 V on 5V pin) enforce correct sequencing during ramp-up.
