The device has an internal current limit circuit that protects the regulator during transient high-load current faults or shorting events.
The output voltage is not regulated when the device is in current limit. When a current limit event occurs, the device begins to heat up because of the increase in power dissipation. When the device is in current limit, the pass transistor dissipates power [(VIN – VOUT) × ICL]. If thermal shutdown is triggered, the device turns off. After the device cools down, the internal thermal shutdown circuit turns the device back on.
If the output current fault condition continues, the device cycles between current limit and thermal shutdown. For more information on current limits, see the Know Your Limits application note.
