TPS25940-Q1: parallel configuration

Guru 29690 points
Part Number: TPS25940-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS22966,

Hi Team.

Is it possible to use two TPS25940-Q1s in paralle configuration to increase load current?
I found TPS22966 is possible although it is dual channel load switch.

  • Hi Yaita,

    Thanks for reaching out!
    Yes, it is possible to use in parallel configuration for higher load current requirement. Please refer the application note www.ti.com/.../slva836.pdf showcasing the use case for 20A requirement with TPS2592x family devices. In the similar way, you can configure TPS25940-Q1 devices.

    Can you please let us know
    what is the application here?
    System level (voltage, current) requirements?
    what levels of protection do you need?
