High side switch with current sense

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS2420

I need to switch 12 devices which run at 12 V at maximum currents  4x 200 mA, 4x 1 A and 2x 2 A and also measure the actual currents. Ideally there would be a high side switch with integrated current sense that could be addressed via I2C or similar. I have been looking around but so far I haven't found such a solution. I am open for alternatives.

Could someone recommend a particular chip or solution?

  • Hi,

     

    The TPS2420 seems to fit all the requirements except the current sensing is not I2C.  The load current of the device can be read using an ADC.  Let me know if you think this is a viable option for your project?
