Hi Simon,
For reference, the password for the tool can be found on the "intro" tab. It is "TPS2470X" and you can unlock the tool from the "Review" tab on the top of the page.
It took me a bit but I found the problem with the formula.
The equation…
Hi Karlis,
1. Hot swap design is meant to provide protection in case of fault cases. For example, that SOA calculation is used to ensure the MOSFET will not fail if the load draws too much current (such as if if there is a short circuit)
So indeed…
Hi JH,
Attached is the updated design calculator. Please see my comments below,

The schematic seems to have 4 mOhms of sense resistor but the design calculator has 3 mohms entered. I have…
Hello, Avishek.
First off, thank you very much for your prompt response to my inquiry in the forum and your support.
About the signal in the capture waveforms, VOUT in all three cases. The second screenshot is from the same capture as the first…
Hi Philip,
If the power limit setting value is less than product of Ilimit and Vin(max), the device will start up only in power limit and will not enter power limit. Then the turn on time can be calculated from the equation below.
In case the…
Hi Avishek,
attached is the design calculator, what we have is the schematic in screenshots because they didn't draw them in one page.
it would be great if you can give the advice on the blank time questions at early convinience.

Hi Ales,
When there is that much current being turned on/off, it is good practice to include a TVS diode on the input and a schottky diode on the output. You can check out the presentation below, slide 5 for information. These protection devices help…
