Part Number: TPS22916

Hi,

I need to switch the power of sensor which has a very low power cunsumption (about 150µA).

Can the TPS22916 deliver this litlle current when ON, or is there a more appropriate component for that?

Regards

Hi Giuliano,

You can pass small currents through TPS22916 with no issues. Do note that the device has a specific quiescent current (0.5uA) which shouldn't affect your application.

On the other hand, what exactly is your application? For such small currents, a low Rds,on device may not be necessary. I would encourage you to take a look at TI's analog switch portfolio here: http://www.ti.com/switches-multiplexers/analog/overview.html

If you have a question on these analog switches, I would recommend making a new E2E post with a relevant part number so that the Analog Switch team can help you further.
