The TPS4H160-Q1 device features an exceptionally low turn-on and turn-off slew rate, ranging from 0.1 V/µs to 0.55 V/µs. For a 24V output, this translates to a rise time of approximately 100 µs. Could you clarify the rationale behind this deliberately slow rise and fall time? Competing devices offer significantly faster slew rates, typically in the range of 10–20 V/µs. What are the key design considerations or application-specific requirements that led to the TPS4H160-Q1 being engineered with such a low slew rate?
