Output Short to Battery

When the output is shorted to the battery (see Figure 6-6), the TPS7B4256-Q1 survives and no damage occurs to the device. A short to the battery can also occur when the device is powered by an isolated supply (see Figure 6-7) at a lower voltage. In this case, the TPS7B4256-Q1 supply input voltage is set at 7 V when a short to battery (14 V typical) occurs on VOUT, which typically runs at 5 V. The back-to-back PMOS topology helps limit the continuous reverse current flowing through VIN to IREV, as provided in the Electrical CharacteristicsElectrical CharacteristicsElectrical CharacteristicsElectrical Characteristics table.
