8.2.2.5 Minimum Load

The TPS799 is stable with no output load. To meet the specified accuracy, a minimum load of 500 μA is required. With loads less than 500 μA at junction temperatures near 125°C, the output can drift up enough to cause the output pulldown device to turn on. The output pulldown device limits voltage drift to 5% typically; however, ground current can increase by approximately 50 μA. In typical applications, the junction cannot reach high temperatures at light loads because there is no noticeable dissipated power. The specified ground current is then valid at no load in most applications.
