by ADMIN 42 views

Introduction

The TPS25740 is a highly integrated USB Power Switch from Texas Instruments, designed to provide a safe and efficient way to power USB devices. In this article, we will focus on configuring the TPS25740 to provide only 5V in and out, suitable for charging a laptop and powering slave USB devices.

Understanding the TPS25740

The TPS25740 is a USB Power Switch that can handle up to 3A of current and has a built-in voltage regulator to provide a stable 5V output. It also has a built-in overcurrent protection and thermal shutdown to prevent damage to the device. The TPS25740 can be configured to provide power to both the host device (in this case, a laptop) and slave USB devices.

Configuring the TPS25740 for 5V in and out

To configure the TPS25740 for only 5V in and out, we need to set the following parameters:

  • VOUT: Set the output voltage to 5V. This can be done by connecting the VOUT pin to the 5V rail.
  • EN: Enable the power switch by connecting the EN pin to a logic high signal (3.3V or 5V).
  • OCP: Set the overcurrent protection to 3A. This can be done by connecting the OCP pin to a resistor and a capacitor.
  • TSD: Set the thermal shutdown to 80°C. This can be done by connecting the TSD pin to a resistor and a capacitor.

Step-by-Step Configuration

Here are the step-by-step instructions to configure the TPS25740 for only 5V in and out:

Step 1: Connect the VOUT Pin to the 5V Rail

Connect the VOUT pin to the 5V rail using a 0.1uF capacitor. This will set the output voltage to 5V.

VOUT --- 0.1uF --- 5V

Step 2: Enable the Power Switch

Connect the EN pin to a logic high signal (3.3V or 5V) using a 10kΩ resistor. This will enable the power switch.

EN --- 10kΩ --- 3.3V

Step 3: Set the Overcurrent Protection

Connect the OCP pin to a resistor (10kΩ) and a capacitor (0.1uF). This will set the overcurrent protection to 3A.

OCP --- 10kΩ --- 0.1uF --- GND

Step 4: Set the Thermal Shutdown

Connect the TSD pin to a resistor (10kΩ) and a capacitor (0.1uF). This will set the thermal shutdown to 80°C.

TSD --- 10kΩ --- 0.1uF --- GND

Schematic Diagram

Here is a schematic diagram of the TPS25740 configuration:

+5V --- 0.1uF --- VOUT
VOUT --- 0.1uF --- 5V
EN --- 10kΩ --- 3.3V
OCP --- 10kΩ --- 0.1F --- GND
TSD --- 10kΩ --- 0.1uF --- GND

Conclusion

In this article, we have configured the TPS25740 to provide only 5V in and out, suitable for charging a laptop and powering slave USB devices. We have set the output voltage to 5V, enabled the power switch, set the overcurrent protection to 3A, and set the thermal shutdown to 80°C. The schematic diagram shows the configuration of the TPS25740.
