Current Limit 4 Click designed for circuit protection and power management

Safeguard your system from overloads, short circuits, and voltage surges with TPS259807O

 

Current Limit 4 Click is a compact add-on board designed for circuit protection and power management, safeguarding systems from overloads, short circuits, and voltage surges. It is based on the TPS259807O, a 3mΩ smart eFuse from Texas Instruments.

 

KEY FEATURES:
 

  • Smart eFuse Technology: Provides fast and robust circuit protection
  • Wide Input Voltage Range: Operates from 2.7V to 24V
  • Overcurrent Response: Features a circuit-breaker-type response to overcurrent events
  • Adjustable Current Limit: Uses an MCP4561 digital potentiometer for precise output current limit adjustment from 2A to 8A
  • I2C Interface: Allows configuration of the current limit and fast-trip short-circuit threshold
  • Load Current Monitoring: Enables monitoring of the current drawn by the load
  • Power Good Indication: Provides a signal when the output power is stable

 

APPLICATIONS:
 

  • Protects systems during the insertion of live components (Hot-Swap and Hot-Plug)
  • Safeguards server power rails that are always on
  • Provides protection for components connected via PCIe
  • Ensures reliable operation in network switches, routers, and other equipment
  • Protects sensitive electronics in harsh industrial environments

ABOUT CLICK BOARDS™

Click boards™ follow a modular prototyping add-on board standard invented by MIKROE, which revolutionizes the way users add new functionalities to development boards. Click boards™ enable design engineers to change peripherals easily, cutting months off development time. To enable hundreds of Click board to be connected to the microcontroller or microprocessor, we have invented the socket standard - mikroBUS™. This uniform connection interface allows you to connect any Click board to a main board instantly. The company releases a new Click board nearly every day at 10am, and many leading microcontroller companies including Microchip, NXP, Infineon, Dialog, STM, Analog Devices, Renesas, and Toshiba now include the mikroBUS™ socket on their development boards.

ABOUT MIKROE

MIKROE is committed to changing the embedded electronics industry through the use of time-saving industry-standard hardware and software solutions. With unique concepts like Remote Access, One New Product/Day, Multi-Architectural IDE and most recently, the EmbeddedWiki™ platform with more than million ready-for-use projects, MIKROE combines its dev boards, compilers, smart displays, programmers/debuggers and 1800+ Click peripheral boards to dramatically cut development time. mikroBUS™; mikroSDK™; SiBRAIN™ and DISCON™ are open standards and mikroBUS only has been adopted by over 100 leading microcontroller companies and integrated on their development boards.
