DALLAS, Sept. 15, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Texas Instruments
Incorporated (TI) (NYSE: TXN) today introduced the industry's first
device to integrate four types of USB 2.0 chip protection in a
single package. The TPD4S014 provides a high level of protection
against electrostatic discharge (ESD) and is the industry's
smallest USB protection device for all four USB channels, measuring
only 2 mm x 2 mm. Should the device junction temperature exceed 150
degrees Celsius, the switch turns off to the power rail, thus
protecting against over-temperature conditions. To protect the
power rail from a moving voltage line, the load switch in the
TPD4S014 immediately opens, preventing under- or over-voltage if
the power supply rail drops lower than 2.8 V or higher than 6.15 V.

Designers can implement the TPD4S014 in many design
configurations that require a small footprint, such as cell phones,
e-books, portable media players and digital cameras, tablets,
embedded computing, portable navigation, portable land surveying,
and portable test and measurement.
TPD4S014 key features and benefits
- First device to offer four types of protection in a single
compact package: over-voltage, under-voltage, over-temperature and
ESD.
- Industry's smallest USB protection device for all four USB
channels, 75 percent smaller than competing devices that only offer
ESD protection.
- Offers protection for all four High-Speed USB (USB 2.0)
channels: D+, D-, VBUS and ID.
- Complies with the highest level of ESD protection, with
immunity of +8-kV contact discharge and +15-kV air-gap discharge
per IEC61000-4-2 system-level ESD immunity testing.
- Compatible with both Full Speed and High Speed, supporting data
rates of up to 480 Mbps..
Availability and pricing
The TPD4S014 comes in an 10-pin, 4-mm2 DSQ SON package and is in
full production now. The TPD4S014 is available from TI and
authorized distributors with the suggested resale price of
$0.55 in quantities of 1,000.
