About This Manual The TPS2151 is one of the four devices in the USB peripheral power management family TPS2140/41/50/51, which integrates both an adjustable linear low-drop voltage regulator (LDO) and a dual-current-limited power switch. The dual-current-limit power switch is designed to eliminate inrush current during power on.

Information About Cautions and Warnings Information About Cautions and Warnings This book may contain cautions and warnings. This is an example of a caution statement. A caution statement describes a situation that could potentially damage your software or equipment. This is an example of a warning statement. A warning statement describes a situation that could potentially cause harm to you.
The switch and LDO function independently provides flexibility in many applications requiring separate core and I/O voltages. TPS2151 has a 5-V switch and an active high /SW_EN that distinguishes itself from the other three parts (TPS2140, TPS2141, and TPS2150). For a detailed description of functions and characteristics of the TPS2140/41/50/51, refer to the data sheet (literature number SLVS399).

Only C2, C4, C5, C6, C8, R2, and R3 are essential for the TPS2151 to function properly. The rest of the components on the EVM are used for different evaluations of the device. To evaluate the power switch inrush current, a large capacitor C9 can be added on the EVM.

Figure 2–2 illustrates the placement of the components on the top-layer of the TPS2151 EVM. All the components are placed on the top layer only. The bottom layer is mainly a ground plane except for a few short traces. The center rectangle box includes all the essential parts for the EVM.
Layout of the EVM 2.4 Setup of the EVM For proper operation of the EVM, please follow these steps for any evaluation: 1) Verify that the power supply voltages are in the required ranges: less than 5.5 V but higher than 4.1 V. Make sure the supplies have the capability to supply the current that the loads need.
Changeable Components and Test Points C1, C2, C3, C4—input capacitors, at least 0.047 F total on each input. C5, C6, C8, C9—load capacitors, vary according to loads, but C5 plus C6 must be at least 4.7 F. R2—top resistor of the resistor divider, refer to data sheet for its resistance value.
