TPS26610, TPS26611 and TPS26612 devices
provide protection from undervoltage events on IN and OUT pins by turning off the
internal pass FETs and cutting off the signal path whenever V
OUT or
V
IN goes below V
O/I_UVLO threshold. The signal path through
the device is restored again when V
OUT or V
IN goes above
[V
O/I_UVLO – V
O/I_UVLO_Hyst] value. The device turns off the
internal FETs within a time of t
O/I_UV_CUT after output or input voltage has
gone below V
O/I_UVLO threshold. The device recovers from output or input
undervoltage within a time of t
OUT_CUT_Rec after output or input voltage has
gone above [V
O/I_UVLO – V
O/I_UVLO_Hyst] voltage. See the
Timing Requirements in Specifications for t
O/I_UV_CUT and
t
OUT_CUT_Rec.
In case of overvoltage, undervoltage and miswiring events on IN and OUT pins,
voltages exceeding Absolute Maximum Ratings (see
Specifications)
for IN and OUT Pins can damage the device.
Figure 8-13 and
Figure 8-14 illustrate the output and input undervoltage protection in these devices.
