JAJSCD8C August 2015 – May 2017 LP8861-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA.
The LP8861-Q1 has a control pin (SD) for driving the gate of an external power-line FET. Power-line FET is an optional feature; an example schematic is shown in Figure 24. Power-line FET limits inrush current by turning on gradually when the device is enabled (VDDIO/EN = high, VIN > VGS). Inrush current is controlled by increasing sink current for the FET gradually to 230 μA.
In shutdown the LP8861-Q1 turns off the power-line FET and prevents the possible boost and LEDs leakage. The power switch also turns off in case of any fault which causes the device to enter FAULT RECOVERY state.
