PRODUCTION DATA
The Quick Output Discharge (QOD) transistor is engaged indefinitely whenever the switch is disabled and the recommended VBIAS voltage is met. During this state, the QOD resistance (RPD) discharges VOUT to GND. TI does not recommend to apply a continuous DC voltage to OUT when the device is disabled.
The QOD transistor can remain active for a short period of time even after VBIAS loses power. This brief period of time is defined as tDIS. For best results, TI recommends the device get disabled before VBIAS goes below the minimum recommended voltage. The waveform in Figure 9-6 shows the behavior when power is applied and then removed in a typical application.
At the end of the tDIS time, it is not assured that VOUT is 0 V because the final voltage is dependent upon the initial voltage and the CL capacitor. The final VOUT can be calculated with Equation 3 for a given initial voltage and CL capacitor.
