2.7 V to 16 V input, 10 A continuous — the eFuse for the power rail
The TPS259814ARPWR is a Texas Instruments electronic fuse in the TPS25981x series, designed for high-side current limiting and overvoltage protection on a power rail. The current-limit threshold is set with ±10% accuracy, which means the trip point guardband must account for this tolerance when sizing the downstream load.
10-VQFN-HR (2x2) — footprint and thermal reality
Housed in a 10-VQFN-HR package measuring 2 mm × 2 mm, the TPS259814ARPWR is a surface-mount device with a 10-VFQFN case code. The small footprint demands a well-designed PCB copper area under the exposed pad to manage the thermal dissipation at 10 A continuous load.
