Functional description

A diagnostic status ensures faster fault detection.

Active current limit is combined with latched short circuit protection in order to

protect the device in the event of a short circuit.

Thermal shutdown for high temperature conditions has an automatic restart at a

lower temperature so providing protection against excessive power dissipation.

Active clamping protects the device against low energy spikes.

Undervoltage lockout means the device shuts down for low battery voltages, thus

avoiding faulty operation.

Overvoltage shutdown in the on-state protects a load such as a lamp filament from

potentially destructive voltage spikes.

[1]

The status will continue to indicate OT (even if the input goes LOW) until the device cools below the reset threshold temperature.

See “Overtemperature protection” characteristics in Table 7 “Static characteristics”.
