The TPS2300 and TPS2301 are dual-channel hot-swap controllers that use external N-channel MOSFETs as high-side switches in power applications. Features of these TPS2300 and TPS2301 devices, such as overcurrent protection (OCP), inrush current control, output-power status reporting, and separation of load transients from actual load increases, are critical requirements for hot-swap applications.

The TPS2300 and TPS2301 devices incorporate undervoltage lockout (UVLO) and power-good (PG) reporting to ensure the device is off at start-up and confirm the status of the output voltage rails during operation. Each internal charge pump, capable of driving multiple MOSFETs, provides enough gate-drive voltage to fully enhance the N-channel MOSFETs. The charge pumps control both the rise times and fall times (dv/dt) of the MOSFETs, reducing power transients during power up/down. The circuit-breaker functionality combines the ability to sense overcurrent conditions with a timer function; this allows designs such as DSPs, that may have high peak currents during power-state transitions, to disregard transients for a programmable period.
