TPS2066CD datasheet by Texas Instruments

TPS2066CD Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum current rating of the TPS2066CD?
  The maximum current rating of the TPS2066CD is 2A per channel, with a total current limit of 4A for both channels combined.
• How do I ensure proper thermal management for the TPS2066CD?
  To ensure proper thermal management, make sure to provide adequate heat sinking, use a thermally conductive PCB material, and keep the device away from heat sources. The thermal pad on the bottom of the package should be connected to a copper plane on the PCB to help dissipate heat.
• What is the purpose of the EN pin on the TPS2066CD?
  The EN (enable) pin is used to enable or disable the device. When EN is high, the device is enabled and the switches are turned on. When EN is low, the device is disabled and the switches are turned off.
• How do I protect the TPS2066CD from overvoltage conditions?
  To protect the TPS2066CD from overvoltage conditions, use a voltage regulator or a transient voltage suppressor (TVS) to limit the input voltage to the recommended maximum of 5.5V.
• What is the recommended PCB layout for the TPS2066CD?
  The recommended PCB layout for the TPS2066CD includes using a solid ground plane, keeping the input and output traces short and wide, and using a common ground point for the input and output capacitors.
