PRODUCTION DATA
The following table summarizes the device response to various fault conditions. Additionally, an active low external fault indication (FLT) pin is available on the TPS259470x variants.

Faults which are latched internally can be cleared either by power cycling the part (pulling VIN to 0 V) or by pulling the EN/UVLO pin voltage below VSD. This also releases the FLT pin for the TPS259470x variants and resets the tRST timer for the TPS25947xA (auto-retry) variants.
During a latched fault, pulling the EN/UVLO just below the UVLO threshold has no impact on the device. This is true for both TPS25947xL (latch-off) and TPS25947xA (auto-retry) variants.
For TPS25947xA (auto-retry) variants, on expiry of the tRST timer after a fault, the device restarts automatically and the FLT pin is de-asserted (TPS259470A variant).
