PRODUCTION DATA.
Short-to-battery detectioin has the same detection mechanism and behavior as open-load detection, both in the on-state and off-state. See the fault truth table, Table 1, for more details. In the on-state, the reverse current flows through the FET instead of the body diode, leading to less power dissipation. Thus, the worst case for off-state is when reverse current occurs. In the off-state, if VOUT – VVS < VF, short to battery can be detected. (VF is the body diode forward voltage and typically 0.7 V.) However, the reverse current does not occur. If VOUT – VVS > VF, short to battery can be detected, and the reverse current should be lower than Irev2 to ensure the survival of the device. TI recommends switching on the input for lower power dissipation or the reverse block circuitry for the supply. See Reverse Current Protection for more external protection circuitry information.
