TPS25942ARVCR

Texas Instruments · Battery Management · QFN-20-EP(3x4)

TPS25942ARVCR from Texas Instruments, in a QFN-20-EP(3x4). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 DMODE input Diode Mode control pin. A logic high activates the non-ideal diode mode, blocking reverse current flow from OUT to IN.
2 PGOOD output Active-high open-drain power-good indicator. Asserts high when PGTH has crossed its threshold, indicating output is in regulation. Requires an external pull-up resistor.
3 PGTH input Positive input of the PGOOD comparator. Typically driven from a resistor divider off VOUT to set the power-good threshold.
4 OUT power_out Power output of the device (drain of internal back-to-back FETs). Pins 4-8 are internally tied and must all be connected for 5 A rated current.
5 OUT power_out Power output of the device. Tie together with pins 4, 6, 7, 8.
6 OUT power_out Power output of the device. Tie together with pins 4, 5, 7, 8.
7 OUT power_out Power output of the device. Tie together with pins 4, 5, 6, 8.
8 OUT power_out Power output of the device. Tie together with pins 4-7.
9 IN power_in Power input and supply voltage, 2.7 V to 18 V (20 V max). Pins 9-13 are internally tied and must all be connected for 5 A rated current.
10 IN power_in Power input and supply voltage. Tie together with pins 9, 11, 12, 13.
11 IN power_in Power input and supply voltage. Tie together with pins 9, 10, 12, 13.
12 IN power_in Power input and supply voltage. Tie together with pins 9, 10, 11, 13.
13 IN power_in Power input and supply voltage. Tie together with pins 9-12.
14 EN/UVLO input Enable / programmable undervoltage lockout input. A resistor divider from VIN sets the UVLO threshold; a UV event opens the internal FET and asserts /FLT. Pulling to GND resets the fault latch on TPS25942L / TPS25944L.
15 OVP input Programmable overvoltage protection threshold input. Set with a resistor divider from VIN; an OV event opens the internal FET and asserts /FLT.
16 GND power_in Device ground reference. Must be connected to the exposed PowerPAD.
17 ILIM passive Current-limit programming pin. A resistor from ILIM to GND (R_ILIM ≥ 20 kΩ, 4.81 A max) sets the overload and short-circuit current limit (0.6 A to 5.3 A ±8%).
18 dVdT passive Output slew-rate programming pin. A capacitor from dVdT to GND sets the ramp rate of the output voltage during turn-on / hot-plug.
19 IMON output Analog current monitor output. Sources a scaled-down replica (±8%) of the current flowing through the internal FET; a resistor to GND converts it to a proportional voltage.
20 /FLT output Active-low open-drain fault indicator. Asserts on undervoltage, overvoltage, reverse voltage, circuit-breaker timeout (TPS25944 only), and thermal shutdown. Requires an external pull-up resistor.
PAD PowerPAD power_in Exposed thermal pad on package bottom. Must be tied to GND (pin 16) and connected to the PCB ground plane through multiple thermal vias for rated thermal performance.
