The TPS24700/1 is an easy-to-use, 2.5 V to 18 V, hot-swap controller that drives an external N-channel
MOSFET. The programmable current limit and fault time protect the supply and load from excessive current at
startup. After startup, currents above the user-selected limit are allowed to flow until programmed timeout – …
