Product details
Overview
TPS2553DBVT-1 from Texas Instruments is a latch-off, precision adjustable current-limited power-distribution switch featuring an N-channel MOSFET with 85 mΩ typical rDS(on), ±6% current-limit accuracy at 1.7 A, and fast 2 µs overcurrent response. It operates from 2.5 V to 6.5 V input and delivers up to 1.5 A continuous load current for USB port protection in self-powered hubs.
For engineers reviewing the TPS2553DBVT-1 datasheet, TPS2553DBVT-1 pinout, TPS2553DBVT-1 application, or TPS2553DBVT-1 equivalent, key selection considerations include its active-high EN logic, FAULT open-drain assertion during overcurrent/reverse-voltage/overtemperature events, programmable current limit (75 mA–1700 mA via RILIM), reverse-voltage comparator trip at 135 mV (typ), and thermal shutdown at 135 °C with 10 °C hysteresis.
Technical Context
The TPS2553DBVT-1 integrates an internal charge pump to drive the N-channel high-side MOSFET gate above the source, enabling full enhancement down to 2.5 V input. Its constant-current limiting is replaced by latching-off behavior upon overcurrent detection - the device remains disabled until EN is toggled or power is cycled.
Reverse-voltage protection activates when VOUT exceeds VIN by ≥135 mV (typ) for ≥4 ms, turning off the MOSFET and asserting FAULT. The FAULT output includes 7.5-ms deglitching for overcurrent and 4-ms deglitching for reverse-voltage, while overtemperature faults trigger immediate assertion without deglitching.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Current Limit Range | 75 mA to 1700 mA (typical), set externally via RILIM (15 kΩ–232 kΩ) |
| Current-Limit Accuracy | ±6% at 1.7 A (typical); ensures precise USB-compliant current limiting under varying temperature and voltage |
| rDS(on) | 85 mΩ (typ, DBV package, 25°C); minimizes conduction loss and thermal rise at 1.5 A load |
| Overcurrent Response Time | 2 µs (typical); enables rapid fault containment before downstream damage occurs |
| Reverse-Voltage Trip Point | 135 mV (typical); prevents backfeed into upstream supplies when downstream ports are powered first |
| UVLO Threshold | 2.45 V (rising), 2.35 V (falling) with 25 mV hysteresis; avoids erratic switching near minimum USB supply voltage |
| FAULT Output Type | Active-low open-drain; supports wired-OR fault bus implementation across multiple ports |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-6 (DBV) package with exposed PowerPAD™ thermally connected to GND; 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm body size, 0.95 mm max height.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN | Power input | Accepts 2.5 V–6.5 V supply; requires ≥0.1 µF ceramic decoupling capacitor to GND |
| OUT | Switched power output | Drives downstream USB load; internally connected to N-channel MOSFET drain |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path; must be externally connected to PowerPAD™ for thermal and electrical integrity |
| FAULT | Open-drain fault indicator | Asserts low during overcurrent, overtemperature, or reverse-voltage; requires external pull-up resistor |
| ILIM | Current-limit programming node | Connects to GND via RILIM; sets ILIMIT per IOUT = 1000 × (1.215 V / RILIM) |
| EN | Enable control input | Active-high logic (TPS2553 family); high ≥1.1 V enables switch, low ≤0.66 V disables it |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

FAQ
What is the function of the ILIM pin on the TPS2553DBVT-1?
The ILIM pin on the TPS2553DBVT-1 is an output that sources a precise 1.215 V reference used to set the current-limit threshold via an external resistor (RILIM) connected to GND. The resulting current limit is calculated as ILIMIT ≈ 1000 × (1.215 V / RILIM). For TPS2553DBVT-1, this enables programmable limits from 75 mA to 1700 mA using standard 1% resistors between 15 kΩ and 232 kΩ.
Does the TPS2553DBVT-1 support USB 2.0 power delivery specifications?
Yes, the TPS2553DBVT-1 meets USB 2.0 current-limiting requirements with ±6% accuracy at 1.7 A and supports programmable limits down to 75 mA. Its 2 µs overcurrent response, latch-off behavior, and reverse-voltage protection ensure compliance with USB specification clauses for port power control, fault containment, and backfeed prevention - making it suitable for certified USB hub and peripheral designs.
How does the FAULT pin behave during a reverse-voltage event on the TPS2553DBVT-1?
During a reverse-voltage event (VOUT > VIN + 135 mV for ≥4 ms), the TPS2553DBVT-1 asserts the FAULT pin low after a 4-ms deglitch delay and turns off the internal MOSFET. FAULT remains asserted as long as the reverse condition persists or the device stays latched off. It de-asserts only after the reverse condition clears *and* the enable signal is toggled or power is cycled - consistent with its latch-off architecture.
What is the maximum continuous output current rating for the TPS2553DBVT-1?
The TPS2553DBVT-1 supports up to 1.5 A of continuous output current when operating within its recommended conditions: –40 °C ≤ TJ ≤ 105 °C, VIN = 2.5 V to 6.5 V, and with adequate PCB copper area for thermal dissipation. At higher junction temperatures (up to 125 °C), the continuous current rating reduces to 1.2 A per the datasheet's recommended operating conditions table.
Is the TPS2553DBVT-1 compatible with the TPS2550 or TPS2551?
The TPS2553DBVT-1 is backwards compatible with the TPS2550 and TPS2551 in terms of pinout and basic functionality, but differs in key aspects: it uses active-high EN (vs. active-low on TPS2550/51), offers tighter ±6% current-limit accuracy, and provides latch-off rather than constant-current limiting. System-level validation is required to confirm interoperability, especially regarding enable logic polarity and fault-handling behavior.
