PRODUCTION DATA

The device monitors the internal die temperature. If this temperature exceeds the thermal shutdown threshold value (TSDN typically 160°C), the device shuts off. This protection is a non-latch protection. During start-up, if the device temperature is higher than 160°C, the device does not start switching and does not load the MODE settings. If the device temperature goes higher than TSDN threshold after start-up, it stops switching with SS reset to ground and an internal discharge switch turns on to quickly discharge the output voltage. The device re-starts switching when the temperature goes below the thermal shutdown threshold but the MODE settings are not re-loaded again.
