Product details

6.5 mOhm Rds(on) — what it buys the power rail

The TPS22961DNYR is a single-channel, high-side N-channel load switch from Texas Instruments. Its 6.5 mOhm typical on-resistance keeps conduction loss under 0.25 W at 6 A, leaving most of the thermal budget for the ambient-to-junction gradient in the 8-WSON exposed-pad package.

Load discharge and slew rate — why they matter for sequencing

The integrated load discharge pulls the output down when the switch is disabled, preventing floating rails during power sequencing. The slew rate control limits inrush current on capacitive loads — useful when the downstream rail has bulk decoupling that would otherwise trigger the upstream supply's overcurrent protection.

Listed as Active on the product status.

Frequently asked questions

Is TPS22961DNYR a drop-in replacement for TPS22960?

The TPS22961 is a higher-current variant within the same family. The TPS22960 is a 3 A part; the TPS22961DNYR delivers 6 A max output. Both share the same 8-WSON (3x3) package and pinout, so the TPS22961 is a direct footprint replacement when the load requires more headroom. Verify the enable logic and output discharge timing against the TPS22960 datasheet for your specific sequencing window.

Does TPS22961DNYR have load discharge and slew rate control?

Yes. The features list includes both load discharge and slew rate control. The load discharge pulls the output to ground when the switch is off; the slew rate control limits turn-on current surge.

Can TPS22961DNYR be used for 3.3 V rail switching?

Yes.
