PRODUCTION DATA.
The over-temperature fault and warning thresholds are programmable for the external temperature sensors. In the case of an over-temperature fault, the detecting channel turns off both high-side and low-side MOSFETs. When the detected temperature cools to less than the turn-off hysteresis level, the channel attempts a restart. More information can be found in the OT_FAULT_LIMIT and OT_WARN_LIMIT command descriptions.
One on-chip temperature sensor monitors the device junction temperature. If the junction temperature of the device reaches the thermal shutdown limit (160°C typical), the PWM output signals are turned off. When the junction temperature cools to the required level (140°C typical), the PWM initiates soft-start as during a normal power-up cycle.
