3.3 Integrated Load Switches Integrated load switches can be used in place of the discrete solution discussed in Section 3.2. All Texas Instruments load switches (TPS229xx products) feature a controlled output slew rate to mitigate inrush current. Figure 6 below shows the typical application circuit for a load switch. Figure 6.
