7.3.8 Active Discharge Circuit

The TPS7A84 has an internal pulldown MOSFET that connects a resistance of several hundred ohms to ground when the device is disabled to actively discharge the output voltage when the device is disabled.

Do not rely on the active discharge circuit for discharging a large amount of output capacitance after the input supply has collapsed because reverse current can possibly flow from the output to the input. This reverse current flow can cause damage to the device. Limit reverse current to no more than 5% of the device rated current for a short period of time.
