The Texas Instruments TPS259521DSGT is an electronic fuse (eFuse) that protects a downstream load from overcurrent, overvoltage, and inrush events. It handles a continuous 4 A output and accepts an input from 2.7 V up to 18 V.
Temperature grade — industrial and automotive under-hood
The 125°C ceiling is the junction limit, not the ambient — derate the 4 A output above about 85°C ambient depending on the copper area under the 8-WSON exposed pad.
Package and footprint — 8-WSON with exposed pad
The base product number is TPS259521; the DSGT suffix denotes the 8-WSON package and tape-and-reel / cut-tape shipping options.
