6.3.3.2 Inductive Output Clamp

When switching off inductive loads, the voltage across the power switch rises to VDS_CL, because the inductance intends to continue driving the current. The voltage clamping is necessary to prevent device damage.

Figure 6-8 shows a drawing of the output clamp. The maximum allowed load inductance is limited. The clamping structure protects the device in all modes (Sleep, Idle, Active, Limp Home).
