SBVS441 December 2022 TPS7B4255
PRODUCTION DATA
When the output is shorted to the supply (as shown in Figure 7-3), the TPS7B4255 survives and no damage occurs to the device. As shown in Figure 7-4, a short to the supply can also occur when the device is powered by an isolated supply at a lower voltage. In this example, the TPS7B4255 supply input voltage is set at 7 V when a short to the main supply (14 V typical) occurs on VOUT, which typically runs at 5 V. The device survives without damage, and continuous reverse current that flows out through VIN is less than 5 μA.
